Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge

Also known as The Wallflower, or Perfect Girl Evolution, this was based on a manga (right), that turned into an anime (left), that turned into a japanese drama (bottom). Its about Takano Kyohei, a very handsome guy that works while going to college. He usually loses his temper while working at the jobs because of the sexual harassment at work. Mrs. Nakahara offers him a house to share with 3 other handsome boys, free but, he has to turn her niece into a lady. They thought it was easy, but the girl, Nakahara Sunako likes gothic things like horror movies, skeltons, and the darkness. And thats where all the crazy lives begin. This story has a hint of romance but not much. It is very funny, so this is more like a comedy. You will get a laugh out of it!

My Lucky Star

I would consider this drama kinda funny, and romantic. It's about a girl named Xia Zhi Xing is a con artist. She designs fake jewelry and creates a web of lies to make money. It's not like she wants to do this, but that she needs the money. When she gets in a big misunderstanding of some sort, no one believes her story except for Zhong Tian Qi. He is part of a big jewelry industry, called E. Shine. (E.Shine is also mentioned in another drama called Fated to Love You.) Together they support each other and then have a relationship. To tell you the truth, its actually super dramatic. I cried and laughed in this drama. There is also Lee Wei in this drama. By the way, I don't think that any anime or manga is related to this.

Cherub

I just read this new book that came out in April or something. The whole series is called Cherub. The first book is Mission 1: The Recruit By Robert Muchamore. If you like spy, action, gun books, I would defiantly recommend this to you. It's about a boy named James in London with a mom that just passed away, a step dad that only cares for his own daughter and doesn't care about him. When the mom did pass away, he took custody of his daughter, but not James. So James got sent to Nebraska House for kids that had no parents. Cherub is made up of highly trained agents under the age of 17, with no parents, smart, and like to get in a bit of trouble. The head of Cherub decided that James would be good enough to qualify, so they recruited him. After that its really good and kept me on my toes. Seriously, I thought the book would be a bit boring since it has a boy's point of view, but it had some romance (kinda) scenes where he kisses some girl several times, but I didn't really sense any emotion.

Romantic Princess

This drama is really nice! It has two members from Fahrenheit, Calvin Chen and Wu Chun. The story is about a girl, Xiao Mai who got adopted by middle classed parents. One day, when her biological grandpa finds his long lost missing grand-daughter, he pulls her back into his house, starting her new life as a heiress. Her grandpa is the head of an prestigious aristocrat family. He also has four successors, but they didn't exactly want to be one so when the news of his grand-daughter got to their ears, one successor, Nan Feng Jin, worried that she will fall in love with him becuz he has a high chance of being chosen as the successor. If she does like him, then they would have to marry, and he will have to be the successor for the company. It's an interesting story, and I like the drama a lot! It was funny, and sad in some parts. But I'm sure if you try it out, you will love this drama a lot.

Coffee Prince

From: coffee-prince.com
I'm back and ready to roll on continuing my blog! This is a drama that's called Coffee Prince and I really liked it! It's about a rich guy, heir to a big food company named Choi Han Kyul. But his grandma wants him to get married to someone and have children, so she sets up blind dates. He soon meets a hard working girl, Go Eun Chan, that has to work for her family becuz they are very poor. Sometimes, she has to disguise as a boy so that she can work! When they both met each other by accident, Han Kyul decides to hire Eun Chan to be his "boyfriend" to scare away his arranged dates. Since she really needed money, she just accepts it. When his grandma makes work at a filthy, failing coffee shop, Eun Chan begs him to hire her so that she can earn more money. While working, they both start to have feelings for each other. But will Han Kyul accept himself, being gay? This is a really funny, and heart warming drama, but it makes me cry a little. Maybe a bit more than that in the end. But they do have a good ending, so no worries! This drama also has Yoon Eun Hye ( Princess Hours/ Goong) I personally think she's a really good actress so you can try watching this drama if you're a fan of her.
