I have finished Japanese drama "Trick". It has been the funniest and quirkiest show that ever crossed East/West divide and I loved it. To cut the long story short it is about two love-hate partners investigating supernatural phenomena, a magician and a scientist. Only the magician is a cute no-nonsense girl and the scientist is a too-good-looking scruffy professor conversed in martial arts and of course together they are a feisty mix.

I find it difficult sometimes to describe why I like something; it is much easier to list reasons of why you don't like something. In "Trick", I loved the main leads Nakama Yukie and Abe Hiroshi (and who would not, IMHO :D). And I loved the stories, very clever and suspenseful. And I loved the "main" series of jokes the nature of which I will not disclose as I am trying to keep away from spoilers. But if you have seen "Trick" you know the jokes I mean – they are so rude and so hilarious. I was very surprised to hear something like this in a Japanese drama and at the same time I was gigling. Anyways, if you need an intelligent pick-me-up show , "Trick" is the one for you. And if you you have seen "Trick" do you think "Trick 2" and "Trick 3" are as good as the first one?


Here they are: Yamada and Ueda, my funniest OTP in Japanese drama:

I desperately need some Asian drama requests. "The Legend" has finised and left a big hole in me. I am waiting for the arrival of "Capital Scandal" but it is not here yet. I am also waiting for "Hong Gil Dong" to get fully subtitled. I need something to LOVE and I'll appreciate if you'll name the best Asian show you have seen in the last two month.
