They basked in the glory until three of the most recent procedures resulted in consecutive deaths on the operating table.

Then arrives Shiratori, a cocky Ministry of Health Labor and Welfare investigator.

As the mystery unfolds, so does the complicated affiliation between each of the seven team members. Will this unlikely duo uncover the truth in time?</blockquote>

Hmm, there are some interesting dramas in this fall. Tokyo DOGS seems really good with Oguri Shun and Mizushima Hiro. I thought they never played together, so it will be really amazing drama, but then I realized that they played in Hana Kimi... No problem! I am still really excited. I love both of them, so... I definitely watch this one! ^-^'

And I like the plot of Bocho Mania 09, Untouchable, My girl (!), Shokojo Seira... and of course Samurai Seventeen with Miura Haruma! Oh, I can't wait! ;D

[Spinelly]

This season i'll be watching:
Ohitorisama
My Girl
Shokojo Seira

Dareka ga Uso wo Tsuiteiru
Team Batista no Eiko SP
Chichi yo, Anata wa Erakatta



Doesn't sound a nice season for me as it's pretty much JE-free.

[Rithy58]

OMG!!! NO WAY!!
Liar Game 2!!!

I have always loved Erika Toda and Liar Game.
But to think they made a second season!
I'm gonna download all the episode and put in my iPhone.
I never get tired of watching it. And Erika Toda is so cute.
Although I love her more when she played as Misa in Death Note.

Sincerely,
Rithy
