The competition for Buzzer Beat this season, I almost missed it! XD. Around 11% of viewership for the first episode apparently. I just finished watching it in RAW, pretty much followable for me with a few lookups.

I definitely like it a lot! The only thing lame about it so far is how the people die that Ryo’s character touches. After the second one was eyeballing away in the same direction it was kind of lame. lol. Rule number one of death scenes: they need to be different every time. Just mildly different will be okay in this case.

I also never thought I’d say this; but it’s the first drama Ryo isn’t annoying me. Tackey as always is ♥. It’s possibly a challenging role for Tackey, I don’t remember him doing any ‘evilish characters’.

By the way, this is Hikaru, isn’t it?

He’s growing into his face. lol.

The lookups:

Including ‘触れて” [furete], which was kind of an important one to get in this case. lol. I had much more trouble with the word “薬” [kusuri] which I should know by now because it’s in either JLPT 3 or 4. Unfortunately it’s one of those “k” words again, which I hear as “g”. These people don’t decide to pronounce these 2 very well.

I also figured out Japanese is a horse language. Fukushu sounds like fukusheu in Dutch, like deur, neus, beurs, teut, kleuter, peuter and the all famous word every foreigner learns first: neuken, preferably in de keuken. What I mean with horsy language is because of the sound horses make sometimes ‘brrweeebrrweee’.  There’s so much loose unused air in there. I always found it funny when Japanese people are angry and talk, but because I’m now forced to listen very closely I notice more strange stuff.
