I saw this recently and I thought it was decent.

>>16862477
Watched Mr. Nietzsche in the Convenience Store recently, thought it was pretty funny. The parts where the manager went on rants, his actor is a well-liked comedian I think, and the other guys were breaking character and trying to hold in their laughter were great, I liked how they kept those scenes in. Especially the one with the squid chocolate.

Is this actually good or just a meme?

>>16863309
I thought it was fun, albeit dark and fucked up at times. There are several amazing performances, including Komatsu and the lead, that carry the film. It's not something I would suggest to anyone.

Nana's not hafu

>>16866588
But supposedly she looks hafu. According to a study at least 3.6% of Japanese born between 1990 and 2014 would have one foreign parent or grandparent, so it's not out of the question that she might have a hafu grandfather or mother

>>16862525
I just watched the first episode and I laughed really hard. So much fun.
Thanks, anon, for mentioning this.

How come the drama and movie sub scene is much worse off than the anime one?
If it's not officially licensed on Netflix or Crunchyroll or whatever, odds are the subtitles are going to be non-existent or really shitty crabsticks-tier subtitles done by Pinoys or ESL shitters. Can't tell you how many subtitle tracks I've had to edit in Aegisub by now. Granted, I can probably, more or less, understand basic conversational Japanese enough now to get me through a movie, but the lack of good subtitles is definitely something that keeps me from watching more.

>>16875507
It's real good from what I remember.

Are there any good fantasy/SF shows that are not sentai/metal heroes/etc, and not adapted from anime or manga either?
More generally, good original series from Japan?

How do you manage to have a ratio going? Do you just waste power for days to slowly gain BP and then convert them to upload, do you donate or are you lucky and downloaders actually connect to you?
I've never managed to seed anything other than a few MBs. It doesn't seem like there are files with reasonable s/l ratio to allow your upload to be of any use alongside hundreds of others.

>>16903221
Free leech. sort torrents by free leech and their popularity. It will be slow at first, but once you build up a few gb you move over to newly released highly popular torrents. All of the sudden you have more upload than you know what to do with it.

That's what I did, and now I have over a tb upload, great ratio and a fuck ton of BP.

>>16879763
Me in the chicken suit.

>>16903221
>Do you just waste power for days

Who the fuck turns off their computer nowadays?

>>16903255
I see. Doing that seems to only gives me huge torrents though (if I choose the newbie-downloadable option; however I know that for some reason I actually can download torrents that fall outside of that category), is that the way to go?

>>16903538
Alright. Also, so seeding torrents without leechers for bonus points is cumulative? That's good to know.

>>16903366
You can download the small freeleech torrents, especially the new ones.

But if you have to download a big freeleech torrent, they are big in size because they contain multiple files or episodes. So just tell your torrent client to download the first file, usually episode 1. (by unchecking everything except 1 file)

I hate to act like a know-it-all and you probably won't believe me, but I did some research for a uni project some time ago and found that the ancestors of today's Japan, the ainu, had a relatively big genetic influx from the area that is today's Russia. So basically Japs have their distinguished looks because there's some Russki mixed in. It's quite apparent when you look at them.

>>16905648

>>16905648
Keke you know the japanese are split into two "ancestry" groups, right? The yayoi and the jomon. Try again.

>>16906006
Also before any smartass points it out, I'm fully aware they're primarily names for the pre-historical periods of japanese history. Also to be honest I don't know if it's *genetically* the case but the japanese definitively see themselves as split into these two groups, which they also based on physical characteristics.

In many ways it has its fair share of cliches but it was really entertaining imo, would recommend. Arimura Kasumi was really fun as the main character and you can't really go wrong with Itou Atsushi as a nice nerdy-feel guy.

Has Japan produced any period films of the same caliber as Yamada Yoji's Samurai Trilogy in the last ten years?

I'm really in the mood for some Japanese or Chinese period pieces, but looking at the recent Wu Xia offerings it doesn't seem like the Chinese have made much of note in recent years comapred to the 2000's. How about Japan?

Why? I'm in university and I don't want to see anything resembling my situation because it fucking sucks, entertainment is escapism. I don't want sit down and go "Gee I need a break, time to watch some J-Dramas!" and get reminded of how I also need to do exams or how I don't have a love life or how their lives are much better than mine despite us being in similar situations in life, or how there's a pressure to succeed for the sake of my future. Fuck that, I'd rather watch high school kids or whatever, since that's a period in my life that's passed so there's no point in worrying about it.

Anyone watched Hana Kimi (2007)? I really liked that series and just rewatched it. I have only now realized that it had great OST.

>>16954115
I really liked the 2007 one with Maki Horikita. It's silly at times for obvious reasons but really enjoyable. I really wished the special would be a conclusion to the story and not some .5 episode. Is 2011 one any good? If the story's the same, it might get boring after a few episodes and the main actress doesn't have that spark as Maki from what I saw. Btw, if you liked the humor, try watching another classic "My Boss, My Hero". It's overacted but in a funny, not cringey, way.

Other stuff I recently saw: "Your Lie in April" (movie) - enjoyable, couldn't believe the actors actually prepared six months in advance to play the instruments for this comedy fluff. "Kuzu no Honkai" (drama) - pretty good but gets repetitive at times.

"Maiko wa Lady" - slice of life movie about a maiko wannabe with the actress who voiced the girl in Kimi no Na Wa; "Too Young to Die" - pretty cool flick about a teen who dies and goes to hell filled with demons who play rock and try to rock their way out of hell (sic); "Tennen Kokekko", "Our Little Sister", "Taste of Tea", Sion Sono's "Guilty of Romance" and his absolute masterpiece "Love Exposure" (4hr run time may be off-putting to some which is a shame because it's that good).

>>16954602
Haven't watched the 2011 yet. But I really enjoyed the 2007 one.

Anyone can tell if that drama featuring a father and son playing FFXIV is any good?

>>16963988
>casuals playing an MMO

No.

Been out of the J-Drama/movie game for about 2 or so years. Legal High SP was the last J-Drama I had watched before getting back in recently.

Anyone seen Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu? (We Married as Job). It's pretty damn entertaining. Has Yui Aragaki (from Legal High fem MC) as someone who can't get a proper job and ends up marrying the mc as a job to be a housewife. Lots of references to other J-Shows/dramas and anime. It's a fun and endearing show, highly recommend it.

Might try Loan Shark or From Five To Nine next.

>>16919940
What happened? People caught up to her being autistic? Just makes her more endearing.

>>16964103

>Anyone seen Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu? (We Married as Job).
Yeah. Really enjoyed it. I've loved everything I've seen written by Akiko Nogi. I'm a big fan of hers. Juhan Shuttai is probably my favourite drama of hers. A really good one about editors for a manga magazine. She's also written two other dramas starring Yui Aragaki, Okitegami Kyoko and Soratobu Kouhoushitsu.

What does /jp/ think about Departures?

>>16976916
It's called Okuribito and it's a great movie with a fantastic soundtrack.

Legal High is the best jdrama in the last decade

NigeHaji was cute but a bit over hyped imo.

>>16984242
No that was the end. There's season 2 coming though I think. What is there not to understand? He didn't get promoted.

>>16986404
But why did he get transfer out. Moreover, the place Owada was teasing him to go. And at marketing. This is obviously a pushishment as some sort.
Is chairman scared of him ? Obviously Hanzawa won't be en lice to be a contentent yet. I don't get it.

>>16986944
Yeah it's a punishment. MC just rekt one of his friend. I bet he is not too happy about it. MC wanted to move up the corporate ladder and he didn't want him to have it.

>>16875507
>>16888843
>>16875675
I'll be the edgelord contrarian to say that I didn't like it. The premise is good, but it felt too much like a book because it was explaining everything half the time either through narration or flashbacks.
But that's probably because the source material was a book and they tried to put """everything""" into the movie. They should've just picked their spots or just changed some things so the movie wasn't just summarizing the book then jamming everything in the last 20mins for a conclusion.

>>16941744
>>16984242
He was an destructive element to keep around. Big boss was corrupt as well and having whistleblowers is a liability when he wants to do bad things. I also think this was a commentary on the Japanese corporate hierarchy of respecting your elders and not fucking the chain of command up even if they were doing the wrong things.

>>16976916
Great film with great actors. If Japan does anything extremely well it's these slice-of-life movies.

Anyone know where I could find a download for Detroit Metal City please?

I might be using this term incorrectly but I think it's the sense of "mono-no-aware" they've honed over the centuries.

what ever happened to this actress?

>>16992328
Still alive. Her career on the other hand
From what I remember is she tried to unilaterally transfer to another (new?) management company which is a big no no and got black listed. She's still posting on her blog last time I checked.

>>16992458
Why is transferring to a new company bad?

>>16992533
her manager (her mom) had created a company on her own and tried to sell items based on nonen's popularity without her agency's approval. then told nonen to quit that agency. of course that resulted in backlash from the agency (they cancelled all her cm contracts and any bookings on dramas and tv shows). so she instantly vanished from the public eye. shes reappeared under the name "non".

We'll see if it's a real 'comeback' or not soon enough I guess. It's unfortunate what happened with her but it's clear she (and her mum) let the ASADORA go to her head too much. In fairness, the subsequent shows haven't had the same level of buzz around them, but she was never 'big' enough to make it outside of the system.

I usually am as well, but a fair bit of non-toku J-Dramas I've watched have been on Crunchyroll or Netflix - they're the only way I can get subs that have been competently done. Most fansubs either have shitty fonts, practices like adding in websites or names during CM breaks or the title screen, poor timing, or have been done by people who are ESL.

>>17042749
Yeah, official streams are the only time I bother with streaming. I had a CR subscription for a while cause they were bringing over jdrama. But sadly they stopped so I had to cancel. I wish jdrama got the kind of support kdramas do

Avistaz. Or if you don't mind Chinese hardcoded subs for Boku Unmei, Google zhuixinfan. They put episodes up around 24 hours after it airs, which is super fast.

>>17049669
Kissasian? It's at ep 5 now. Btw is this show good? Dropped it 15 mins in

>>17049669
>>17049891
The DoA encodes are also put up on acngx.se and nyaa.si

And now that I mention it, it really annoys me how AvistaZ is now only getting these crappy AOZ encodes and then subbers are using those for their script files. Bloody hell, those encodes are so obviously inferior to DoA and then the scripts don't time well with DoA.

It's worth a try looking online for subs that have been retimed.
I had the same issue with Quartet, where the subs weren't timed properly to the DoA encodes, but someone retimed them and uploaded them on one of those subtitle hosting sites.

Amachan is very comfy and easy to watch. Episodes are only 15 minutes, so the 156 episodes are actually 52 normal length eps. The show strays from the roots at some point in a pretty ridiculous way but the ending is very touching and emotional. Watching Haruko and Natsu-bappa mend their relationship is somehow healing. I think you'll especially enjoy it if you watch it during summer.

>>17057296
Unless you're a movie and history nut or have a crush on toshiro mifune he's very overrated. Kagemush is legit 10/10 though, very well filmed and a ton of cool choreography and play on colours; the plot is pretty decent too.
Other than that Ran and Seven Samurai are worthwhile but a little longer than they should've been.

That's pretty meta.

>>16995156
She had a successful movie with Hot Road post Amachan but that was before the whole mess with leaving the company she was at.

Recently she had a resurgence thanks to due to surprise hit animate film 'In This Corner of the World'. Movie was literally a crowdfunded film with a total budget of 2 mil, ended up being a hit in theaters doing close to 20 mil. With it being a hit and winning awards, it's gotten Non/Rena Nonen back on TV with interviews, which lead to her getting CM/Ads recently. Who knows if this will translate to getting hired for Drama/movie work, if not at least she can do VA for animated movies, she's pretty good at it.
