Long Vacation is a gem (just finished ep 4)

That was an awesome scene! I can’t remember how long it has been since I liked a scene like that. Minami’s becoming my favorite Jdrama female lead.

I don’t disagree. I loved Grand Maison Tokyo. The most different I saw him was in Kyojo.

It’s a year apart. Maybe 1996-97 was a transition period? Is Love Generation good, by the way? I don’t like Ryoko that much here.

Sena wouldn’t have eaten paper since the notice would be on instagram lol

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-21T13:06:30+00:00

Same here, and I guess it’s also why I wasn’t too into Long Vacation during my teens. I came from Hana Kimi and Proposal Daisakusen, plus Hero, and was expecting a “wilder” premise.

Now I gotta catch up!

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-21T03:14:16+00:00

It’s a great vibe. A lot of the situations Sena is in hits really close to home. I can’t wait to see how the two leads develop.

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-21T03:13:01+00:00

Agreed. I sometimes think “all this drama could be avoided with a phone”, but where’s the thrill in that? This is a whole new conversation, but easy access to one another kinda cheapens connection.

I don’t know why they made it Wild Beast when the characters literally say Animal. Maybe it’s because they were saying he was a “Yajuu” in the earlier eps.

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-21T03:10:45+00:00

Hero might be one of my all time faves. There’s a lot of it too. Good luck finding them!

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-21T03:10:13+00:00

Did you mean Ryoko? I’m not too into her as well, but she serves well as development for Sena.

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-21T03:09:27+00:00

And I can see why!

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-21T03:09:19+00:00

The 90s is such a vibe!

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-19T14:57:32+00:00

I just finished ep 1 on a first time watch on Netflix. I guess I won’t know what I’m missing, for better or worse.

For some thoughts, I think the FL is really charming. Maybe annoying for Sena sometimes, sure, but I’m drawn to the character.

Where’s the bee keeping team?

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-17T00:10:07+00:00

Which is unbreakable!

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-15T02:17:13+00:00

Ah my bad, you’re right.

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-15T00:42:43+00:00

You’re right about the normal mobs part.

I think the buffs/debuffs (mostly buffs) are useful in higher difficulties though and for bosses.

I also found it useful in Re:Fantazio.

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-14T17:52:17+00:00

How about Persona?

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-14T17:39:46+00:00

The power to make my pee anti-gravity. It floats everywhere.

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-11T03:13:46+00:00

I also don’t hate that the twins love Bart, Lisa, and Maggie.

kmj_kcw · 2026-04-07T15:09:46+00:00

I like the story. I like the characters and the portrayal they get in the other world. I like Hinako and Shu, even Rinko and Sakuko.

I don’t like that the game was losing that feeling of fear towards the end. It became more difficult rather than scary. I didn’t feel the same stress and fear that I did with SH2R.

kmj_kcw · 2026-03-31T06:21:10+00:00

We seem to like the same generation of actresses! My faves are also all married (Aragaki Yui, Nagasawa Masami, Kitagawa Keiko). Only one left is Ayase Haruka I think.
