Episode 108: Shimokita Glory Days - Japanese TV Drama

With the help of Insomnia, I was able to finish the full season of Shimokita Glory Days tonight.  I should be really be sleeping right now since I do have work tomorrow but I couldn't help myself haha.  Insomnia had a pretty convincing argument about finishing the series so I could find out what would happen.

The Glory Day series is a manga translation to tv.  They also chose interesting people to play the parts in the series.  Majority of them are female japanese adult actresses, gravure idols, and models.  I guess that is why they also slated it for a really late night time slot on Japan tv.

Overall the series was entertaining, but the acting was really bad when you think about it in a serious note.  Then again I think they were going for that type of acting because it was originally a manga series.  The next series I have in store for me during my late night blogging sessions with Insomnia is going to be an anime series Macross Frontier.  Currently I'm on the 11th episode or so out of 25.  Oh before I forget, I've included a picture of the Shimokita cast.
