So, I just watched my first 2009 spring season JDrama. Here is my a little note of my impression.


Ghost Friends (ゴーストフレンズ)



The story goes that, Kamiya Asuka, your normal high school girl, gained the ability to see ghosts after a car accident where she was the sole survivor. Since then she's been constantly getting requests for help with things they want to settle from when they were Thumbnail alive from various ghosts she came across.

Then she met Kaito. Who apparently can also see ghosts. She was happy to find someone with the same ability but Kaito seems very pessimistic about ghosts and warns Asuka that she should steer clear of them.

It is not really a spoiler since it is revealed at the end of episode 1 but,Thumbnail Kaito is a ghost himself. An incarnated one. He is chasing after and trying to catch a  female ghost, whom the official site labeled as his girlfriend (from when he was human I guess), that is going around the human world occupying people's bodies then leaving them (They collapse when she does but I can't tell from the only little such scene in Ep 1 if they die or just temporarily become weak)  because she wants to re-live her life. Maybe Kaito became incarnated for that "mission"?Thumbnail

Ghost-seeing people isn't really a novel idea, but episode 1 was kinda interesting nonetheless. The female lead, Fukuda Saki for some reason looks kinda like Toda Erika (from Liar Game) to me, especially when she smiles (see image below), and I like how Erika looks =P so yeah, Saki is a good female lead, at least look-wise.

Don't they look kinda alike?

As for the male lead... apparently this is his first drama so his acting is a bit...off, and he isn't exactly an eye candy (no offense to his fans), so I'm a bit "eh" about him right now. Lets see how he fares in the upcoming episodes; especially since apparently Saki's character is supposed to fall for his character as the story progresses.

Anyhow, overall, this definitely will be a JDrama I'm going to be following this spring season.
