✔️️ Watched: 10 December 2020 - 6 February 2021 [Watched while Currently Airing]
A cliched story just done extremely well. The characters from the webtoon were much more developed and side characters brought the story to life.

12. Case Comigo!
Japanese Drama - 2020, 10 episodes
✔️️ Watched: 6 January 2021 - 9 January 2021
This is a peek into the lives of two softspoken and amiable people who get married first and slowly fall in love later. Their relationship is more of comfort than passion, so this story introduced few dramatic moments.
-
13. De Cinco Para Nove
Japanese Drama - 2015, 10 episodes
✔️️ Watched: 10 January 2021 - 14 January 2021
This show had it's moments but you have to suspend your logic for a good portion of it (especially at the start) in order to enjoy it. I'm still not sure how or why they fell in love with eachother in the first place, and the gag of being interrupted just before kissing was so repetitive it became an annoyance more than a laugh. I do appreciate that she was a confident woman who had career ambitions but the story forced itself into a corner where one of them had to give up something they wanted in order to be together and that was a shame. There were also some interesting side characters and relationships that I felt were underdeveloped. The cast were great though, which is probably what made me forget of the plot holes in the first place.
-
14. In-House Marriage Honey
Japanese Drama - 2020, 7 episodes
✔️️ Watched: 15 January 2021 - 16 January 2021
Don't mind the break-neck speed in which the first episode sets everything up. Once you get past the implausable start to their relationship (two attractive, charming people agreeing to a marry a stranger they just met on the internet) you'll be swept up in the fluffy chemistry of the leads. The FL is cute and flirty (and knows it) and the ML is playful yet thoughtful. Good-looking characters with no flaws falling in love with eachother without any drama, and I'm okay with that.
☄️ Actor Discovery: Itagaki Mizuki [160~]

15. Começar de Novo
Chinese Drama - 2020, 35 episodes
☠️ Dropped: 16 January 2021 - 18 January 2021 (Episode 22 of 35)
I loved the role-reversal and Simon Gongs character is an absolute sweetheart, but I just couldn't get past Lu Fang Ning and her manipulation (which everyone keeps forgiving!), even though everything else about her character is amazing.

24. Me Ame, Não Me Ame
Japanese Movie - 2020

A beautiful glimpse into the love lives of 4 youths. It plays out like pages of a diary, where every love is epic and every heartbreak if forever.
-
25. Diga "Eu te amo"

-
26. Amor à Curta Distância
Japanese Movie - 2014
✔️️ Watched: 25 January 2021
I don't usually like controversial dynamics like the student/teacher relationship because I find the way the characters tackle such situations reflects a lot on how much I enjoy the story. This one is borderline...
As a side note, I hardly recognised Yamashita Tomohisa, who I first saw in 5-ji Kara 9-ji Made (2015)

Inadvertedly started a Yamazaki Kento [3,822] streak due to the sheer size of his filmography in the shoujo genre... I have seen him before in How To Love an Otaku and LDK but he didn't really grab my attention until these roles.

32. Heroína Desqualificada
Japanese Movie - 2015
✔️️ Watched: 27 January 2021
--- BEWARE SPOILERS AHEAD ---
This movie was refreshingly different in its over the top manga-style reactions but loses points for unlikable characters. The only likeable character was the second male lead, and the way the story was getting told I was hoping for an Our Times twist, but unfortunately it didn't come.

✔️️ Watched: 29 January 2021
-
36. Você é Meu Pet
Japanese Drama - 2003, 10 episodes
✔️️ Watched: 29 January - 30 January 2021
A refreshingly different concept, thought provoking with complex flawed characters and interesting social commentary, but still fun and fluffy.
☄️ Actor Discovery: Matsumoto Jun [1,930 bit late to the party!]
-
37. Você é Meu Pet
Korean Movie - 2011
☠️ Dropped: 30 January 2021 (30 minutes)
Missed the actual point of the original concept - that unconditional love allows you to be yourself, and owning a pet can be a source of healing. Instead, it uses the absurd situation just as a romance setup which makes it no longer believable or endearing, and just another average romcom.
-
38. Me Pegue
Korean Movie - 2013
✔️️ Watched: 31 January 2021
Absurd heist-romcom not to be taken seriously, but both actors performance just makes it a fun watch.
-
39. Guia do Amor para Idiotas
Korean Movie - 2015
✔️️ Watched: 31 January 2021
Easy watch, but somewhat forgettable.
-----------------------------
AND because I can't add non-asian dramas here:
Bridgerton (2020): Season 1
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 7.5✔️️ Watched: 1 February - 2 February 2021
It's been a while since I've watched anything in English and this was an enjoyable, albeit predictable, romp in a high-concept period-drama that shared a lot of common drama tropes. The diversity and social commentary on sexism were the most interesting elements, and what makes up most of my scoring.
-
40. Kakafukaka
Japanese Drama - 2019, 10 episodes
✔️️ Watched: 2 February - 3 February 2021
This could have been an interesting character study about these damaged individuals with odd personalities, but unfortunately was too shallow to really delve into anything. Without deeper understanding you can't like any of the characters...

-
42. Na Direção do Amor
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
✔️️ Watched: 4 February - 12 February 2021
Overall just pleasant with cute characters, funny dialog and a mellow, low-drama tension.
-----------------------------
Non-MDL watch:
Mulan (2020)
⭐⭐⭐ 5.5✔️️ Watched: 13 February 2021
Although visually stunning, they turned a simple story of a young girls coming of age and female empowerment into something shallow and average. The asian inaccuracies aside, the characters themselves made illogical decisions and there was no build up of story or consequence. An unfortunate backwards step for asian representation in Hollywood.

Japanese Drama - 2011, 9 episodes
☠️ Dropped: 4 January 2021 - 18 January 2021 (Episode 3 of 9, Decision on 15 February 2021)
I picked this up because I was curious about the early works of these young stars that later on became more popular, but put it on hold in January because I just wasn't in the mood for that kind of story. Turns out, I'm a bit bored and I might not ever be in the mood? Exercising my willpower (because it's very rare!) to drop this one...
-
45. I'm Underage But I'm Not A Child

Not terrible, but the FL was so whiny and childish and I guess I have outgrown my patience for these kinds of characters.

I usually avoid drama storylines with questionable morals so I didn't expect to love this as much as I did.

I put off watching this classic for sooo long because I wasn't a fan of the toxic, harassing behaviour I saw in the remakes Meteor Garden (CN) and Boys Over Flowers (KOR). But this was a pleasant suprise! The characterisations were much more thoughtful and Doumuji came across more as someone foolish and putting on a front, rather than the obsessive power-tripping characters in the remakes. Glad I finally watched it!

✔️️ Watched: 12 March 2021 - 15 March 2021
I struggle to convey how totally disappointed I was in this. What was set up so well in season 1 felt ultimately wasted and overridden in season 2. Not just the romance, but there was so much potential for deeper stories in the post-Love Alarm world that introduced so many interesting social problems.

Shame on me for waiting so long to watch this. I started it last year but wasn't in the mood for the darker atmosphere so put it on hold. This time around I was so hooked. The anti-hero had no shame but was so incredibly charming and vulnerable that, I couldn't help but root for him.

✔️️ Watched: 28 April 2021 - 15 May 2021
Not gonna lie, it took a bit of effort to get through this one, mostly due to the length of each episode. Song Joongki is a walking suit commercial and the side characters all have their laugh out loud moments. While the action did get better as the show progressed, so did the level of ridiculousness. Surprisingly for me, an avid romance fan, I wanted there to be no romance in this. It didn't need it, and the chemistry wasn't there anyway.

For something different I thought I'd try a closed-mystery (aka mystery-of-the-week) style story and was surprised by how enjoying it was. The stories start off mostly stand-alone but as the series progresses they start to tie together nicely. The writing was tight and enjoyable, though I wanted to see just 15 more minutes of how they live the what happens after. And Okada Masaki really shined, playing such an endearing character that you want to root for him.

I put off watching this title for so long. And although I thought it was very good, I can't help but feel it was overhyped. The story was fascinating and fresh (note to self to watch more time-travel romances), and the acting was very natural (Greg Hsu earned his "Nation's Boyfriend" title). My only complaint was that the show dragged at times.

Chinese Drama - 2021, 18 episodes
☠️ Dropped: 13 June 2021 (2 of 18)
I went in mostly out of curiosity so I was expecting to drop this even before I started. It was actually quite cute but I could already tell it would be predictable. Probably good for a mindless bored afternoon, but I wasn't in the mood.

98. Busu no Hitomi ni Koishiteru
Japanese Drama - 2019, 8 episodes
✔️️ Watched: 13 June 2021
Super impressed with the lead actress, who was great in this role, despite her young age. The male lead as well was quite convincing in how he quickly fell for the girl. A sweet story that focuses on an unconventional romance (you know how I love those). The only thing that detracted for me was the huge age gap in the actors -- a personal distraction more than anything.

99. Watashi ga Motete Dousunda
Japanese Movie - 2020
✔️️ Watched: 14 June 2021
A follow up movie because I wanted to see more of Tomita Miu from the previous drama I watched. This pure reverse-harem was ridiculous and hilariously great. You know it's not trying to take itself seriously when the characters break into song. I won't spoil who she chooses, and although it wouldn't have been my choice, I think it was the most fitting ending for the movie. I am told the manga and anime has differences so might check those out.

100. Alice na Fronteira
Japanese Drama - 2020, 8 episodes
✔️️ Watched: 5 June 2021 - 14 June 2021
Intense, intriguing, and puzzling (in a good way). I watch tv to relax and this was far from relaxing, but I don't regret watching this extremely well written and directed drama. The twists and turns keep you guessing. Bring on Season 2!
