inawww. it seems that I would be stuck on episode 19 of Fated to Love You.
It looks like the Fan Sub Group who’s subbing FTLY has decided to stop their project. From what I’ve read from their forum, it’s because of some people who are criticizing and judging them. They’ve decided that starting from episodes 20 and up, they’ll only release it via You Tube, but then since last week, their forum/site was unavailable. So I think, there’ll be no more Fated To Love You episodes for me, unless someone with a very good heart tries to sub the remaining episodes.
I’m not angry to the original subbers of FTLY, the truth is I symphatized with them, they’re doing their very best but it just seems that some people don’t appreciate it, which really angers me. Those people (not the fan sub group) are benefiting from the kind hearts of the subbers but they bring them criticisms in return. ARGGGHHH, can’t they see that subbing an episode, is so tedious? what more a series?
GYAAA. The thing is on MySoju, they’ve UL-ed all the episodes of FTLY with subs but the things is, MySoju does not work for me.
I do hope (I know I’m not the only one) that you (I would not mention it’s name) would continue to release FTLY episodes, we’re very much indebted to you. You’re doing a great job, and you should just ignore those who can’t do better with their lives. And btw, thank you for subbing FTLY.

inI will not be making summaries here, just my reaction on the episodes (there’s someone who’s making it already and it’s great).
I have only dl-ed up to episode 3, and have just finished watching episode 3.
The story’s definitely improving, I like every bit of it.
And I was crying at the part where in they sort of almost aborted the baby. Is abortion legal in Taiwan??
I love Cun Xi’s grandma, haha, reminds me of Zhi Shu’s mother, in fact she’s more persistent and loud.
WAAAA, I want to watch episode 4 and above!! when will I finish dl-ing it? (currently dl-ing TKA episode 11)
AND CONGRATULATIONS TO FTLY, it has achieved the 10% ratings mark, which makes it the #1 highest rating show in taiwan, wow. That’s really great.
[Episode 4]
wahahaha. I knew it, Cun Xi’s grannie plus Xin Yi’s mom would make a great tandem. HAHAHAHA. All that blackmailing has paid off. GYAAAA, I can’t watch episode 5 just yet, the connection’s so slow. T_T

inAre you a Filipino? Do you love It Started with A Kiss, do you want to watch They Kiss Again? (its sequel)
Ok. here’s what’s happening, ABS-CBN is planning to air TKA on July 28, 2008, probably as a replacement to Romantic Princess. But fans are demanding to put TKA on primetime para lahat naman makapanood.
If you want to see TKA on primetime, sign up for this petition
[My Personal Note]
Hmmm, for me, it does not matter whether TKA will be aired on RP’s slot or on primetime since I’m in the boarding house during weekdays and there’s no television. BUT I would want to see They Kiss Again in Primetime, because I know that TKA’s worth the time and slot. Honestly I was disappointed when ABS aired ISWAK during weekends before, sayang kasi yung series, siguro siya na yung isa sa dalawang pinakabest na taiwanese series for me.
I’m still on episode 9 of TKA, IFS has only released up to episode 9 but I’m not in a hurry, but still there’s this part of me that envy you, whoever you are, that would be able to watch TKA on Philippine Television. They should have shown this during the summer break. Life’s unfair. 😦
AGAIN, Please do sign up for the petition, we only have a week??? BTW, TKA’s group on multiply is the one who has launched this campaign. 🙂

inoh la la.
I think I’m being crazy again.
Have just watched Itazura na Kiss’ episode 13, and now, what?! Episode 14, I want! I want! It’s supposed to be out today, I hope I could watch it before I go back to the boarding house.
Another thing, I’m dl-ing a new series, entitled “Fated to Love You”. I’ve been so curious with this for months already but I’m only dl-ing the first episode now. After seeing that this has the highest rating of all Taiwanese Dramas this year, I’ll watch it, lol. It may even replace Prince Turned into Frog as the all time highest rating drama in Taiwan. GYAAA!
Going back to Itazura na Kiss, it has a new ending theme song which is very beautiful if you ask me. It’s entitled Jikan Yo Tomare by AZU feat. SEAMO. Just search it in google/yahoo and you’d be able to DL it, yeah!.

[Author’s Note]
I’ve made this entry two months ago at my multiply blog, felt like posting it here, however be warned this post is in Tagalog and not in English, and since not so long ago there has been a debate on which is greater, Hana Kimi Taiwan or Hana Kimi Japan. This post is my answer. 🙂 This is my opinion, if ever we do not have the same viewpoint, please respect mine and I’ll respect yours.
Hay. Sobrang nakakainis naman, kahit saan atang forum ako magpunta lagi na lang network wars ang aking nababasa. Another addition to that would be ang airing ng Hana Kimi Jap sa GMA versus Hana Kimi TW sa Dos. Naglurk ako sa thread ng bawat isa, and yung mga fans grabe talaga yung paninira. Um, actually yung fans ng HK TW talaga yung sobra. What I mean is they’re saying mean stuff sa JP, and sa GMA na din. And another would be yung tagline ng commercial ng ABS, it says something like “The Orig”, probably ito ay reference sa pagair ng Coffee Prince sa GMA, since almost the same yung plot nila na may girl na nagpanggap na boy. True nga naman na nauna ang TW sa Coffee Prince at pati na din sa JP version, pero it’s too much, I think na kaya ganun na lang ang panglalait ng mga fans ay dahil sa GMA ang nakakuha ng rights sa pagaair ng mga yun, the mere fact na “GMA” yun.
Sa totoo lang maka-GMA ako pero that doesn’t mean na ayaw ko talaga sa ABS, anyway parehong maganda ang HANA KIMI JP at TW. Nagkaiba lang sila sa plot. HK TW focuses more on the love story between Quan and Rei Xi, samantalang ang JP naman ay medyo ganun din pero mas marami nang involvement ang mga dorms. With regards sa LEADS, aminado akong mas gwapo si WU ZUN kaysa kay OGUSHUN, but dapat hindi yun yung batayan. About naman sa girls, ELLA and MAKI are both fine with me, pero mas gusto ko si MAKI and mas bumagay sa kanya yung role. And ito na yung pinakahihintay kong part, whom to choose between JIRO and TOMA, syempre TOMA CHAN ako forever. though sobrang galing din ng portrayal ni Jiro sa TW pero nang dahil kay Nakatsu (Toma), sobrang nilove ko yung character niya na hindi ko naman nagawa kay (Siu Yi).
About sa plot, medyo mushy yung sa TW version yun namang sa JP ay sobrang nakakatawa at nakakakilig. One thing I don’t like sa TW is that medyo draggy yung ibang parts, minsan tuloy nakakabore. As a fan of asian series, I would recommend that you watch both versions sa Monday, tutal naman hindi sila magkatapat ng time slot. There’s nothing to lose naman. Pero if you’ll ask me kung ano mas gusto ko, it would be Hanazakari no Kimitachi e. Mas nauna kong napanood ang TW pero mas nagustuhan ko ang Jap version. Pero it’s up to you guys kung ano ang mas guto niyo, I’m only giving my opinion on the matter. And about dun sa mga detractors. PLS STOP IT. Napakachildish niyo naman. Don’t make a fuss about the two, pareho silang maganda okay??? And about kung sino ang mas okay mag dub, kahit naman sabihin kong hindi ganung kagaling magdub yung GMA, i’ll watch it pa rin kasi mahal ko ang JP version at gusto kong makitang nagtatagalog si Nakatsu – kun. ^^

Taiwanese Dramas. ohhh la la. 😀
Because for the past few months I’ve been focusing my attention on Japanese Dramas (and I was able to watch 20 series in 2 months time), I’ve felt that I’ve been neglecting Taiwanese Dramas.
I’m watching Mars as of the moment (yeah I’m a loser I’m only watching it now), and I’m enjoying it.
And because of that I’ve searched on what’s the best taiwanese drama people have seen (so that I’ll have an idea what to watch next).
I’ve only seen the recent ones and the popular, however by the time I’ve read people’s suggestions, I feel my head bursting with excitement. Dang, there are so so many Taiwanese Dramas that I need to watch.
Hopefully I’d be able to watch these:
Ying Ye 3 Jia 1. Smiling Pasta. Magicians of Love. The Outsiders. Pearl Princess. Corner with Love. Fated to Love You (currently airing). Angel Lover. Prince Turned into Frog (only watched a little of it). Legend of the Star Apple. The Rose. Brown Sugar Macchiato. Sweet/Delicious Relationship.
Ok the titles above are my targets. However, since school’s gotta start in about two weeks, I think I won’t be able to watch those, hopefully in the next few months I can finish them. :))
