As I might have mentioned before, I especially enjoy Japanese television in order to improve my language comprehension. One of my favorite shows (downloadable off D-Addicts) is 食わず嫌い（くわずぎらい：Kuwazugirai), which basically translates into “Stuff you haven’t eaten, but don’t like.” I don’t think there is an english word for this actually! Which is why the english title the Japanese have given the show is “Food Prejudice King.” I rather like that name.

The basic format of the show goes like this:

The show begins with the introduction of 2 guests. These are generally 2 Japanese celebrities, idols, athletes, and so on. For today’s show, we have Hayami Mokomichi (I know, again!), and Becky, a famous half Japanese actress.

I don’t know what I’ve been up to that has kept me from watching this this Jdrama, but I am really taking my time with it. I was going to do a post on Rookies, the new Satou Ryuuta drama, or Nakama Yukie being the ever-so pumped up Yankumi in Gokusen 3, or even Kimutaku’s new drama CHANGE. But I haven’t even started watching them! I am really bad at this being lazy and watching drama all day stuff.

In the last 3 weeks, all I have managed is two episodes of Zettai Kareshi, in all its Mokomichi goodness. So I might as well summarize a bit about the interesting parts of each episode. Just to mention, the ratings for Zettai Kareshi are relatively low compared to CHANGE or Gokusen3. This being for obvious reasons I suppose, but I really thought it would do much better than it is. Oh well!

Just some quick snaps of episodes 2 and 3:

Talk about anti-theft system.

Finally managed to sit down and watch the first episode of what promises to be a rather entertaining drama. Watched the first episode of Zettai Kareshi (絶対彼氏：ぜったいかれし：Absolute Boyfriend) last night, and at first all I could think of was the Terminator theme song playing in my head, but after a while I got over that and enjoyed the humorous aspects of the drama. I suppose I’ll do a little “first episode summary” for those who are still pondering over whether to watch this or not.
