just finished watching the first episode of "Taiyou No Uta" drama version.

hmm, mixed feelings, I guess. b4 watching, i said to myself not to expect it to have the same effect as the movie, coz dramas have longer viewing times (thus more storyline) and there will be no YUI (which makes a big difference coz the acting & especially the SONGS will be different).

the drama definitely has different feeling to it. how do i think of it? well, let me put it this way - if I wasn't a fan of Erika Sawajiri or YUI, I probably wouldn't watch this drama. Still the drama has some nice moments, especially when moi Erika smiles! Kawaii!

I don't want to give away any scenes (SPOILER!). all I will say is that there seems to be some history between Kaoru and Koji b4 they meet each other. In the movie, it was just Kaoru from her window watching Koji at the bus stand. In the drama, .. well it's a bit different. In addition, there seems to be another related plot embedded, about a famous singer, who seems to be connected to both Kaoru and Koji in different ways.

I don't know how many episodes the drama will be, but in just this one-hour first episode, a lot has happened. Too bad my Nihongo is still basic, so can't follow the story well.

anyway, since i can't give away anything, my last comment is - other than the basic storyline, the drama is very different from the movie in all aspects. DO NOT EXPECT the same feeling! ;)

This firefly live from Tokyo, signing out :wave

p/s: oh my god, there's so many things i wanna say about the drama, but I can't without spoiling! if anyone manages to watch the drama, let me know. then we can talk talk talk! :biggrin

Thanks for sharing, firefly!! I'm really looking forward to seeing the drama, esp. since I loved Sawajiri Erika's performance in the dorama "Ichi Rittoru no Namida" as well as Yamada Takayuki's acting in the dorama version of "Sekachuu". And of course, I want to see how different this version is from the "Taiyou no Uta" film. :)

I'll watch the dorama as soon as I find a RAW for it. I'm sure the fansubbed version will take longer to come out. ;)

Perhaps after more people watch the dorama, I'll created another topic thread where we could discuss the dorama series. And, of course, I'll put up a "SPOILER WARNING!!" sign again. :D

hey, blue cat, managed to find & download the 1st episode of the "Taiyou No Uta" drama, via torrent. Want me to send you the copy, if you haven't got it already? there's no subtitles on it, understandable coz the drama only came out 2 days ago.

It's about 523MB, don't know what's the best way to send it to you guys. Can Yahoo Mail take that big an attachment?

to everyone else who wants to see it, let me know how to send it you, ok.

Wanna spread the file to all YUI lovers coz so wanna talk about it, but don't wanna spoil it for those outside Japan who haven't watched it!

Just watched the RAW version, and the drama it's a bit different than the movie. Well, now I know that Erika Sawajiri sings^^ But I'm not that convinced about her playing-guitar skills. I hope the drama turns more interesting because this episode was...only ok^^

I watched the first one of Taiyo no Uta drama. Not even as HALF as good as the mOvIe Taiyo no Uta with YUI as Amane Kaoru. I don't like how the actors in the drama act. And I don't like the things they say. The songs aren't as moving and inspiring as YUI's. But....I'm still going to watch every single one of them :)

the only thing i find weird is that everyone in the series looks really old.. and the parents look really young...

hmmm

kaoru and her friend in the series... look.... good... but like .... not in a cute way... theyre sexy... but not cute.. and not 16...

hmmm

^_^ I always feel that YUI can act 16... bc she like a lil girl to me... >_< soooo cute.... ^_^

i like YUI and her friend more... and her friend did a better job of being the cute annoying friend that eats a lot...

the friend in the series... just.... looks like she eats a lot...

Did she learn from YUI :P

The Drama is not as catch as the movie mostly because YUI is not in it ;)
Also because some had seen the movie so...you know what I mean. :swt

I think the Drama is ok, it will need more time to get going.
Once it past 3 ep should be more enjoy able.

Brad: LoL yeah we're on the YUI-Lover so being biased is ofcourse expected ^^ It's good that u don't go too far as dissing Erika, but I think erhanz' point is that u should be more appreciative towards her and the drama :)

So, Erika plays it for real? sugoi! Thx for the info Erhanz ^^

I am YUI-ing

Just skipped through the drama, weird is all i can say =/ So unnatural the way they sing and play instruments, that's just show how many efforts real singers have to put on to perform 'naturally'. Maybe this drama emphasize on the 'love' and 'sickness' theme more......not the music itself. Iit's not the movie version or Otsuka Ai's Friends, just another normal japanese drama. Which btw, Sawajiri Erika definately looks prettier in this :P Still have to warm up the songs featured in the drama.....





Spoiler:


Wonder how the tall piano playing girl can get no.1 spot for 8 weeks in a row for debut single, so....strange. The song only so...so, i like the cdtv thing though. =D

starting to wonder how long this drama is going to be. it's only the 2nd episode, and already they've had two fights & Kaoru has had to escape the sun, barely.

my guess is the writers & producers are going to lengthen the story, using the "famous" girl singer (anyone know the character's name? i can't translate!) who seems to know Koji, & using Kaoru's attempts to get her CD through.

p/s: still think Erika was prettier in 1 Liter of Tears. god, when she tried to call from the hospital payphone & her mother came, i really did cry! hontou ni kanashii (really sad) :huhuhu
