![]() ![]() Or maybe, it's because I just really missed studying :'( (huhuhu). The plot may sound lame to others, but wait till you see the acting and the drama itself. The story, like what is written in the Synopsis above, is about a lawyer attempts to get students from Ryuuzan High School (students studying here are known to be stupids) enters into the prestigious Todai (Tokyo University). Actually, I'm not really expecting much from this one, but the plot and the sequence of events really got me hooked. I never thought I'd finish this one in just two days, but that's what exactly happened. It's a mixture of everything (school, friendship, family, life, comedy!, and a bit of romance (if you can call those romance at all. I would recommend this drama to everyone, It has its funny moments but also has a very serious side to the drama that most people would understand and relate to. Music wise all the music seem to fit really well into the story especially the opening theme song Realize by Melody. Plenty of eye candy for both boys and girls! ![]() I think the cast was perfectly matched to this drama and kept it interesting. The cast is jammed packed full of great actors and actresses such as Aragaki Yui (from Koi Zora), Koike Teppei (from Lovely Complex), Yamashita Tomohisa (from Kurosagi) along with the charming Abe Hiroshi. I think you will be left with a little bit of a new outlook on life as i was. ![]() I quite liked how there are many lessons you will learn just by watching this drama. This drama deals with very realistic problems that teens face everyday in schools and in their homes. Rewatch Value 10 A funny yet heart warming drama Dragon Zakura tackles the lives of teens who are always looked down upon and called "idiots". A feel good show with some wacky characters and teaching methods thrown in for good measure. Like most high school doramas there is a whole bunch of anti-change teachers to irritate the viewer and an incompetent but well-meaning principal with a penchant for hats tops it off.ĭragon Zakura isn't just another high school dorama - it's unique, funny and focuses on encouraging the students to want to improve themselves and their lives, rather than just mass-producing exam bots who can't think for themselves. While the students were all quite young when Dragon Zakura was filmed most of them are now big names (Yamashita Tomohisa, Koike Teppei, Nagasawa Masami, Aragaki Yui) and it's interesting to see where they started out (although the acting of some has definitely improved with time!).ĭidn't Love: The student's homeroom teacher (played by Hasegawa Kyoko) can be annoying at times but she always has the student's best interests at heart. Rewatch Value 6.0 Loved: Abe Hiroshi is excellent in this role (it was the first I saw him in and probably still my favourite) - he maintains the balance of strictness, understanding and self-interest well and the students develop a real rapport with him. ![]()
