Shit, we will never know if they won the second 1 million yen now.
>>50622813you have to accept that japanese tv is mostly for the vibessometimes they do something new and exciting, but most of the time it's people getting together and laughing even if the thing you're watching has been done before or exaggerated
>>50624274Perfect ending.
Anyone watching this?Ikoku Nikki made me crave for more female centered drama.
>>50624986Why yes, I see Sugisaki Hana, I watch.
>>50624274It was funny seeing people going from "shittiest episode ever" to "legendary episode" the moment he jumped

>>50623695I rewatched Battle Royale again since it was its release's 25th anniversary last month. As a fanatic of the death game genre who consumed all kinds of death games from different mediums and countries, none of them hits like Battle Royale's sheer thrill, atmosphere and surrealism. Takeshi Kitano's death scene at the end of the movie is one of the best in all of cinema.
>>50624274did he died
What are the best sites to stream Jdramas and stuff? The ones in the FAQ are all dead.
>>50626977i was under the impression that this was going to be the launchpad for ALL of the actors in it. very few of them hit it biggirl #13 chiaki kuriyama looks like this at 41
>>50628318>for ALL of the actors in it.That never happens. In every popular school-themed dramas and movies where there are lots of young actors and actresses, only a few hit it big. Kinpachi-sensei, Dragon Zakura, 3 Nen A Gumi, you name them, not all of the actors there hit it big.
>>50628258Streaming is obsolete, just download from nyaa.
Honestly curious about current reception of her. Will things turn out good for her again?
>>50628441Everyone is still shitting on her. She doesn't have the acting ability and the strong presence to force people to ignore her messy private life and enjoy her acting like Sawajiri Erika, she's just a pretty face with no talents.
>>50628397https://asianwiki.com/Battle_Royalethe most surprising one to not get major roles was the FMC aki maedakou shibasaki, it feels like i've seen her everywhere for 2 decades
>>50628258none are free anymoreuse nyaa or pay for netflix
>>50628496>>5062840799% of the time with torrenting, anything old and niche will have 0 seeders. But nevermind, I found one. Search through past thread archives if you want it.
>>50628453It all depends on the talent agency the talent belongs to. Fukasaku is an auteur so he gave jackshit about the power of the talent agency, he picked his cast based on his own judgement, but outside Battle Royale, Maeda belongs to a no name talent agency and Shibasaki belongs to the giant Stardust.
>>50628450I see... that doesn't give me hopes for a similar situation then.

>>50624986What is it even about? Slice or life focused or romance focused?
>>50631585I'm the anon who asked, and I can't confirm, but I skipped around the first episode, and she meets or is to meet 3 different guys. She doesn't hook up with them (not sure why), but I guess it's romance heavy.
They were so good together

Beat Takeshi reminisced about the late actor Takakura Ken when the topic was about the record rise in gold prices>When I co-starred with Takakura Ken-san in a film, I received a medal made out of gold from him. The kind you wear around your neck. It had Takakura Ken's name written on the back, and the word "Thank you”. I've kept it all this time, but I guess it's a very valuable item now. I wonder if I should sell it.
>>50636163>I wonder if I should sell it.kek classic takeshi
Do you guys not watch Kamen Rider?
>>50636351No not reallythe fans are on /m/
>>50636163Ken Takakura is the best Japanese actor in history. More anons should watch his legendary massive filmography.
weird how the top 10 tv actresses in japan there are multiple hafus but in the top 10 jav actresses are all pure japanese
>>50636931And the jav ones are prettier.
Noticed that there are Bakabake RAWs on Nyaa, and with Closed Captions.No one will translated that one? Seems so fun.
>>50636996It's being subbed by some drama-otaku grifter, but only up to week 2.
>>50636931>top 10 tv actresses in japan there are multiple hafus Who? Many hafus through the decades but multiple in the top 10 now?
i love her
I watched this recently. Kinda overly preachy with >leforeignergood shit, but she's cute as fuck, that's all that matter
>>50624986first episode was okay, but then the second episode came and I think all that alloromantic bullshit is too woke for me. I might give it a second chance later though.

Beat Takeshi threw beans for Setsubun.
>>50640833hamabe my wife
fuck it im saying it showa era women were more beautiful
>>50641252No, they were just lower resolution so you couldn't see how fucking bad the makeup was.
>>50641329i bet you like kanna hashimoto
>>50641653How dare you.
>>50641653nothing wrong with that
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lYREgzuq0M
>>50641653Yes
>>50640833Takeshi Kitano should have threw beans and sprayed that ugly bitch Minami Hamabe instead
Heyo, anons. I'm very curious about ばけばけ (The Ghost Writer's Wife). I'd love to watch that drama somewhere, but I don't know how to get started when it comes to watching JP drama, since I live in Europe. Is there any non-VPN way to watch these shows? Even if its not subbed in english, I'm fine with it. I want more practice with JP anyway.
>>50643143https://9tsu.vip/bakebakeUpdated daily.
>>50643250Bless you anon
>>50641798even the kid is hs?

>>50643740i bet she's having birthday sex with her ikemen actor boyfriend right now
>>50641908>Minami Hamabe>ugly
>>50633749>>50633838There's a copy of it at the National Film Archive of Japan, it's just never been scanned for a home release. To be honest it sounds really boring.
>>50643948Well, I was aiming to watch all of Kurosawa's movies, so I bothered asking. Even boring movies can be nice... thank you anyhow.
>>50643740I know
>>50643958No worries. Hopefully they'll screen it again sometime soon.
>visitor q is worse than the human centipede and a serbian film together
>>50644605>Literal who says what?
>>50644605
>>50644605Weak faggot
>>50641252No, modern women are more beautiful due to advanced beauty products and easily accessible health products, as well as cosmetic surgeries, unlike in the past. But this only makes you appreciate 10/10 natural Showa beauties like Matsuzaka Keiko and Iwashita Shima.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7WocXXpkfQ
>>50645169I hope it's at least as amusing as Under Ninja.
>>50645163the different beauty standards back then were better
I remember recently seeing a trailer for a Japanese version of Water Margin. It wasn't actually called that, and I think it was based on a Japanese novel retelling of the story. Anyone knows what I'm talking about?
>>50645169You'd have to pay me to watch this garbage.>>50645300UNDER NINJA's source material is topnotch made by a great mangaka, you can't say the same thing about SAKAMOTO DAYS.
>>50645387Suikoden by Kitakata Kenzo
>>50645402Thanks!
Just watched Haru. What the fuck, I can't believe they took this away from us, we must return.
>>50645467Haru was ahead of its time. Reminded me of my MANY teen internet crushes in MSN in the 2000s.
>>50644605Miike filtered an obvious Generation Z pussy, many such cases.
>>50645499>fatal illness>bullying>muh seishunIt's like Japan stopped caring about the school setting. I don't think I'll watch this even if it has Anna Yamada's beautiful round face.
>>50645391>topnotch made by a great mangakalmao
>>50645604I just watched it for her. This movie isn't really good.
>>50645604might just be a coincidence but over the years it seems like general/mainstream audiences care less and less for school settings while otaku media only get further invested in them
>>50645611Fuck you
>>50645550When is his movie Sham releasing in English?

>>50647928I find it funny how a scary-looking thug-like guy like Takeshi Kitano created two beautiful bittersweet movies like A Scene at the Sea and Dolls

Why are most Japanese dramas so preachy and moralistic?
>>50648410They're taught how to write that way in scriptwriting school. I think it comes from classic literature influence, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, The Water Margin, etc.. Those stories had themes that were portrayed by characters clearly representing what they stood for. So now you every teacher in these schools teach their students to write characters that way because it's more "omoshiroi" that way. Same reason every drama used to have some sort of forced misunderstanding plotline, though it's not as popular anymore.These techniques aren't fundamentally bad but mediocre writers will make formulaic writing more obvious.
>>50648517One of the dullest bits they've done in a while, and it took a full 30 minutes.
doing this for 6 hours
>>50648517youtube slop tier
>>50648518compliance rules ruined everything.
been watching this one alot.
i like this one too but its off and on if it airs. didn't see one this past weekend.
>>50648517I skipped to the second setsu the moment Savanna's Takahashi talked about burps and farts, hate these kinds of contents.
>>50647928>>50648087>>50648109Thanks, good anons.
>>50648517They out of ideas or are they just out of money?

>>50649984they burnt alot of money on the daian tsuda episodes and lost some big sponsers from the downtown scandal. so they are running out of funds.
>>50649984Yes
>>50650463I still find it hilarious that Daigo is starring in a Koreeda film and as Ayase Haruka's husband.
>>50650463>Kore-eda sci-fi movieNow that's rare
was it good?
>>50651239It's silly but worth watching. The Showa era jokes were funny.
>>50648517you guys don't watch this for comedy do you? i always thought it was about vibes and having funit's like "whose line is it anyway?" with drew carrey. some of the clips go viral but most often it's the people in the studio having a laugh and then going home buzzed.
>>50650463>Hirokazu Kore-eda>Haruka Ayase I will now watch your movie

Beat Takeshi on old age and retirement >Back in my younger days, I used to think, “What am I gonna do in my old age? I gotta save money.” But once I saved up and thought retirement would be secure, that came with its own set of problems. The most important thing when you get older is still being able to go out and have fun with your former co-workers. Me for instance, when I shoot films, I use many guys who have been with me for decades, like the lighting guy, the cameraman. But now they are old and none of them are actually working. That's why I call them to hang out. I ask about six old geezers to come along and talk shit to each other. People who wake up with something to do, somewhere to go, they're the strong ones. So, retirement is really about how you choose to live. Just sitting at home drinking tea? That's no good.
>>50656867Takeshi is filthy rich so he can say whatever he likes from a comfort zone, but in reality the average old Japanese people are living hand-to-mouthhttps://topics.smt.docomo.ne.jp/article/shueisha/trend/shueisha-256442
>>50656867once you stop you can't start up again. good for him tbqh, he wants us to see him until the end and he chose this over lying in the futon all day waking up to watch tv

>>50656377their tailors should be fired and go hungry on the streetsfront row 4th is the most egregious. suit is 2 sizes too big
>>50659646Wearing 2 sizes bigger has been fashionable for a while now in Japan. Problem is that it looks horrid when done with a suit but that doesn't stop brainless trend chasers.
>>50659764well fuck, i won't question it then. i thought the koreans had it right with the slim fit and shoe game and everyone copies them
>>50659769Japan still does that too but there's a divergence between those who copy Korea and those who want uniquely Japanese fashion. I'd be all for nippon to have their own fashion sense again but they keep making up this ugly shit like hiding the human form and wearing baggy crap. No wonder Korea is still on top of fashion trends.
>>50656874I read this article and I think this guy isn't that smart. 35,000 yen a week is a reasonable amount for a senior citizen with things to enjoy using this money (unless it's soaplands, I know old Japanese men love soaplands). >>50656988Takeshi was heading towards the retirement path when he graduated from most of his remainder regular tv shows four years ago, but he still kept TV Tackle and Marumie because they're the shows that he feels most comfortable with and suitable for his age (and because they still pay him a lot for doing them lol).

I finally finished watching this piece of shit.I'll stay away from shows with this kind of writing and le traditional culture nonsense for a while.
>>50665199Who memed you into watching it? Be honest.
>>50665199what was wrong with it?
>>50665200Nobody. I wanted to watch something with Satomi Ishihara and the production looked okay. Plus, it was rated at a slightly higher level than the stuff I had been watching.I don't mind romance and my choices are kinda limited because I could not give two shits about crime, medical or police dramas.>>50665206The plot was Mexican drama levels of retarded. Almost as dumb as that show/manga about the wagashi vengeance, but comedy.
>>50665255>it was rated at a slightly higher levelLink me to that place where you found the ratings, please

thoughts on naomi watanabe's tokyo dome live>the bitrate for the stream was terrible (5000kbps) and it becomes unwatchable at times because of the noisy led screen background>not surprised they had to mute the beyonce tracks, but it's just sad considering how quintessential it is to naomi's career>during the segment where she's reenacting her time at NSC, there's guest appearances by various comedians (jungle pocket, sissonne, chocoplanet, satoshi mukai) in which the seniors bully the juniors. chocoplanet's matsuo makes a reference to his infamous "amateurs" line which made me fucking cringe>they actually showed the original scenes from her first tv appearances and holy shit has she gotten fat. first time i've seen those in not-240p>i'm glad she delivered on the one thing i was hoping for out of this live, a reunion for picaru no teiri. sad that yuji ayabe wasn't there though, it's not like he's busy or anything so wtf...>she got brutally upstaged by chidori, which is funny because earlier in the live peace matayoshi warns her to avoid that happening>before she performs her hairspray song, she gets undressed/dressed on stage which was kinda shocking and she even commented midst change "i didn't think it'd be this revealing">i figured yuki chiba would be called as a musical guest since they both disgustingly worship black people. i've never heard anything from him besides that one "okane kasegu" meme line, but his niggerbabble music is just as stupid as i thought. it's like SHO's rap music but without the lolcow comedic value>surprisingly the lady gaga song wasn't muted for the stream, and the reference to lady gaga's tetsuko no heya appearance was funny>the live just anticlimactically ends after that with her saying goodbyes which was kinda shit
>>50666828boob pads
>paying to watch Fatanabe Naomiugh...
>>50666836also i forgot this part during her song about moving to new york where two browns try to rob her at gunpoint/sell her cocaine lol

>>50667761The W is the most-hated, least-watched owarai tourney, and it always gets criticized by people. Last year's especially was dire.
inb4 Inoue Mao did it and they're covering her because of some shocking truth.
>>50666886Will she get cancelled for this?
>>50668066I couldn't find a single post about it so no

Nyaa is really not good for Japanese films and show. Been trying to search for My Rainy Days (2009) but all of them are dead.
>>50668810Try other public trackers like YTS and 1337x, or watch it online.
>>50668810huh?? how are u an asian movie connoisseur and STILL not on avitaz??
>>50668908I don't want to buy seedbox
>>50668998could always try your hand at subbing a series ;)
oh shit, it paid out just now
>>50668998>I don't want to buy seedboxhuh?? As a 10year member I still dont quite know what that is, but I know you dont need one.Also subs just dropped for this, finally I can spend some more time with my bugfu Akari Takaishi ╰(∀)╯
>>50669017You don't need one, but currently registration are closed and is on invite-based registration.
>>50669020そうですか...
>>50669031do you want an invite? i'm heckin' rich
>>50669053My friend, your generosity outweighs your ability to keep track of a conversation. I have no need of charity, but mayhaps a struggling straggler may put your boon to good use. I pray you offer him the same kindness where he to beg for it. YABAI YABAI YABAI!
>>50668908>how are u an asian movie connoisseurhe's not, the movie blows up on twitter from time to time, right now is all over my timeline. Now, they're calling it "problematic"
>>50669053gimme one bro
>>50669163yeah, was meant for >>50668998 but i don't mind giving 2drop your email somewhere, coded or whatever
>>50669183reichphase4 [at] protonmail.com
>>50669190sent, 24 hours to sign up
>>50669053Are you the guy who fulfilled some sub request recently?I don't mean to sound like an asshole but you shouldn't go crazy and spend 10k on invites to random people who may affect your reputation, given how hard and how long it takes to build a ratio. Some trackers can ban you if you invite just any random person too. Maybe you're lucky and this dude is like me. I got an invite from a kindly c/lit/ more than 13 years ago, which probably the best thing that has ever happed to me on 4chan, and to this day I'm still a respectable user on BiB. Guy spared me a few years worth of savings in books.
>>50669249yeah i realized there were rules like this when i went to the invite pagewhatever happens happens i guess :X

>>50669318holy fuck how many years has it been since takeshi and kiyoshi shared the stage at takeshi cup?
>>50669318>Takeshi: Kiyoshi just came to my dressing room, taking time out of his dialysis session. >*Kiyoshi comes out*>Takeshi: It's been about 40 years since we quit manzai. You've been nothing but a fraudster (Takeshi referencing one of their famous manzai neta). Even now, you're pulling a dialysis scam, right?>Kiyoshi: What the hell, man? But it's nice, standing on stage like this once in a while. Tell me your schedule next time.>Takeshi: No I don't wanna. If it weren't for doing manzai with you, I would've become famous sooner.>Kiyoshi: Is that so? My bad.Kek
>>50669436>>Takeshi: No I don't wanna. If it weren't for doing manzai with you, I would've become famous sooner.lol
>>50669318>>50669436I bet zoomers don't know that Beat Takeshi was a one half of a manzai combi
Can you recommend me some shows where the protagonist is an asshole? Not an anti hero or "I did it for the greater good" or "I did what had to be done" or delinquent with a heart of gold, someone who is genuinely a bad person. Yes I've seen legal high. Something either about a business or cheating or getting away with murder/etc
>>50670198>cheatingThe Confidence Man JP if you haven't seen it, same scriptwriter as Legal High. MC could be considered asshole-ish.
>>50670198I think you would like late night tv dramas.-Watashi no Otto wa Reitouko ni Nemutte Iru-Kyouso no Musume
>>50670217I've seen it, I had a good time, That's still a bit moral faggy as they usually show the people they scam are happier after being scammed or deserve to be scammed as they themselves are assholes. jimenshi would more fit the bill but I've seen it. I'm just having a bad week and want to see someone go ape shit.
>>50670198Byakuyako 2006, the drama plays up the melodramatic tragic romance bit but the leads are both victims and awful people.
>>50669196Thanks bro. Still don't understand why my seeding upload speed is still at 0. I don't think it's a connection issue as I'm able to seed with public tracker. But apparently I have to keep downloading recent freeleech.

>>50670881probably later this year
Any movies to cry myself to sleep while drinking? Something similar to A Scene at the Sea/Vibrator, or directors like Iwai, Hiroshi Ishikawa or Shiori Kazama. Ideally from some lesser-known filmmakers, I've seen all the major ones.
>>50671493Her Love Boils Bathwater (2016)Be with You (2004)
>>50671493Not similar to the filmmakers and the films you mentioned but>Dead Run (2005) by SABU>Scabbard Samurai (2010) by Matsumoto Hitoshi>Sakura (2020) by Yazaki Hitoshi

>>50672339Shin Kamen Rider (2023) by Anno Hideaki
>>50672083I know it will never happen but I wish Macchan would guest on Gobugobu.
what are some jmedia /jp/ thinks "deserves" to be watched in 4k (even if its not available in 4k)
>>50674726I don't get the need for 4k and how people would never watch something if it's not in 4k. Could it be because I'm not a Generation Z-born person?
>>50674728i meant more of a this movie should be watched on the best display in my house if not in 4k then on bigger display yknow just to really savor the visual beauty
>>50674726Kurosawa Akira's movies. I saw some of them getting 4K releases lately

Holy shit, not even in film form can I escape from Murakami's westaboo shit.I should play the bingo.
>>50677781We love Murakami Haruki here
>>50677739She's scheduled to appear on a travel show next monthhttps://x.com/TVGweb/status/2020981281992110377

Beat Takeshi exposes the LDP members who aim to destroy PM Takaichi>It feels like public opinion, or rather the whole of Japan, has rallied behind Takaichi-san. But will she really be able to deliver as much as she says she will. This time, she's receiving such excessive attention and expectations, but behind the scenes, there seem to be plenty of people in the LDP ready to hold her back. It's all so obvious.
>>50678005Will Kitano get canceled for saying this? The LDP are powerful
>>50678005fuentes tier
>>50678017He didn't say something very controversial. Even if he did, Takeshi is too big to be cancelled. If the FRIDAY scandal didn't affect him much, nothing will.
>>50678005>j-celeb who isn't parroting the tv station's anti-Takaichi propagandaWhat gives? Even the unhinged comedian, the lunatic fringe Ota Hikari became a lapdog for TBS the other day
>Capeshit Niggano (verb) ...Did not fucking read
>>50678005>the look of discomfort on everyone's faces Kek
I will never understand why people choose to listen to celebrities unironically, esp. those who talk about matters outside their area of expertise (i.e., the arts).I know perfectly well why they are put in front of a camera and have a space to talk about this shit, but they should only influence the less educated.It's like giving credence to some random Twitch streamer.What exactly compels you to follow their agenda?
>>50678999Every time I just remember that Ricky Gervais Golden Globe video.
>>50678999i don't think people watch kitano or hiroyuki for knowledge. ok hold on, his friend who has the squre/circle rimmed glasses seems pretty smart, but toeh than that they're watching for entertainment. they're watching their tv dad talking shit about someone else
>>50679209gervais said what he said because he doesn't want leftist celebrities to use their platform to upset the people bankrolling them
>>50678005the good thing about guys like takeshi and sanma is that they make bold political statements in a lighthearted and comical manner reflecting their geinin side without offending anyone. in contrast, geinins like bakusho mondai's ota who last week live on tv was basically trying to pull the same shit okada tatsuya pulled on takaichi >>50662377 and as a result he's been getting bullied by netizens ever since
>>50677467No faggy shit, bro.
https://x.com/hamada_OfclSomeone pretended to be Hamada on X, I wish it was for some suidown setsu, but it's probably an actual retard who doesn't know Hamada doesn't do social media.

>>50680053Nice casting. She looks pretty and just the right amount of boyish.Too bad the source material is complete and utter bland shit and full of cliches. The anime adaptation, though very pretty, is just painful to watch.

>>50680053cute boys
>>50623695Posting this wherever its even slightly relevant. I'm looking for the other part of this prank show featuring Minoru Suzuki and Masakatsu Funaki. The subtitled portion features Suzuki, but I know there is another part where Funaki slaps the shit out of some poor guy. If you could provide either the full show or just the part with Funaki I'd appreciate it:Part with Suzuki:https://youtu.be/HdDZw1kfuhM?si=gLqVidJMHIzW1ysQ [Open]End of this highlight video has a few seconds with the Funaki portion (4:02):https://youtu.be/y9z-YBYEZsI?si=NWSRtBV7Jq4Su4Sv [Open]
