Why no one recommends Showa period dramas? I've been coming here on and off for half a decade and the only Showa period drama I frequently see posted is Sukeban Deka, everything else is from Heisei and Reiwa. For a period that spans 30 years, there should be more dramas worth watching than just Sukeban Deka.
This rant aside, if you know any Showa period dramas I should watch, please let me know, I'm very much interested in that period of Japan.

I thought Sissonne's Hasegawa was the only owarai geinin in the drama, then this guy shows up at the end. It's always amusing seeing random geinins in dramas and movies acting differently from their original personas.

The producer likely asked her to stay, maybe even Takeshi and Tokoro, too. The fact that they even dedicated time specifically for her like that shows that she's well-liked by Takeshi and Tokoro, as well as the show's staff.

Japan's documented history of civilization with key figures spans over 2000 years ago, yet most taiga dramas are based on two or three periods, and not in their entirety too. There's so much to adapt, but they choose not.

it's the gradual move away from tv which is pretty much true for most countries in the world that surprises me, and it's the fact that i thought jptv would withstand it simply because of how ingrained it is in the culture and how much of it there is
the amount of time you need to have to be able to watch it every time marumie and other variety is simply not sustainable if you have stuff to do in your life, while youtube, social media and games lets you pick and choose when you consume the content which you choose yourself, and that's the stuff that's taken a chunk out of the jptv pie

Kanna Hashimoto. She went viral for a picture when she was a preteen idol and has been since then treated like a goddess despite all the ‘heydey’ pictures of her are from when 1) she was a literal child and 2) very edited. Now that she is grown (she is still hailed as thee beauty in Japan) her features are settled and the proportions are so off. The japanese still drool over her, maybe because of her light eyes but really I just don’t get it. Maybe I don’t get anything about pedophile island aka Japan. She’s just not pretty. She’s homely at best.

Koriki Choshu is possibly facing prosecution for driving without a license. He was stopped by police after running a red light and when the police checked his license they discovered it was expired by about two months. He told investigators at the time that he knew his license was expired, but in the apology video he posted on YouTube he claims he didn't notice.
