"Hana Yori Dango is Japanese HEROIN. If you start watching it, you will end up in a downward spiral of never ending Asian television and boy bands..." ~ aliaspiral

HELLO:  Insomniac & Drama Marathoner. My descent into the world of Asian media started way back when in the days of Club Dorothée, probably even before that! Feel free to add me, send a message or ask me about anything; anytime... Check my MDL FEED (Avoid if you don't like spoilers) for additional crazy ramblings!

(^ _ ^) How I use my profile lists:

• Currently Watching: Used as intended.
• Completed: Used as intended.
• On Hold: Dramas/Movies I plan to pick up again eventually. If they have been in this list for too long & it doesn't look like I'll ever pick it back up, they eventually get dropped.
• Dropped: Things I just couldn't finish or just lost interest in.
• Planned to Watch: Everything in this list is something I plan to get to eventually & am really interested in. Dramas/Movies/Etc I am possibly interested but not 100% sure about get added to my PTW Custom Lists instead.
• Not Interested: I am not interested in these at all, mostly due to tragic endings.

SHOWS: Shannara Chronicles, Shadowhunters, Discovery of Witches, Stargate Atlantis, Star Crossed, Sugar Rush, Star Trek Discovery, Murdoch Mysteries, Altered Carbon, You Me Her, Moonlight, Lucifer. This constantly changes as new shows air or end, but some of these are my overall favourites.

HOOKED: Not necessarily my first Drama from that country, just the ones that made me want to watch more. JDrama: Hana Yori Dango. KDrama: I dipped my toes into KDramaland with You're Beautiful & City Hunter got me wanting  more. Sageuk: Faith. TDrama: Devil Beside You. Lakorn: Full House & 3 Will be Free made  me want to watch more Thai content.

LOVES: Tokonatsu, Dramacon, Journey, Cosplay, Japanese Fashion, Harry Potter, Twilight, Trance, Funky House, Chillout, Hard Dance, KPop, JPop, T/CPop, BL, Design, Digital Photography, Photo Editing, Gaming, Japanese Culture, East Asian Dramas, Anime, Nail Art, Emerald Green, Orange, Gothic/Fantasy Fashion, Dim Sum, Congee, Goats Cheese, Science Fiction, Robotics, Astrophysics, Figure Skating.

DISLIKES: Sasaeng fans, Excessive Moe, fanservice over substance, close-minded people, racism, homophobia & those who try to shove their opinions down other people's throats.

HOW I WATCH: I have the attention span of a fish, so Dramas/Movies need to hook me in the first 10 minutes or so, otherwise I tend to drop them. I do occasionally re-visit dropped things & try to finish them. I prefer to focus on one Drama at a time as I love a good marathon. I rarely enjoy re-watching things & would rather just move on!

HOW I RATE: My ratings are very subjective & usually based on my personal enjoyment rather than anything else. On-hold/dropped Movies/Dramas do not get rated at all. 

• 0 = Unrated. I'm undecided on what rating to give. Some parts I thought were ok, others I hated. Or something I thought was well made but just not my thing at all. 
• 1 to 4 = Hated a lot or most of it. Characters are annoying. Very few redeeming parts. Poor production values/acting.
• 5 = Average. I don't hate it but I don't love it either. Something I'm likely to forget about quite quickly!
• 6 to 7 = Entertaining; but lots of things that annoyed/bored me.
• 8 = Pretty good with only a few moments that bored/annoyed me. 
• 9 = Nearly perfect. Maybe just one or two things I'd change. 
• 10 = Wouldn't change a thing.

GENRE LIKES/DISLIKES: My absolute favourite type of Drama is Reverse Harem/Flower boy with dash of romance & mystery. I also love unconvention/unique/quirky Dramas/Movies. Slice of life, mystery, action, Idol, Vampires, music, youth, BL, LGBTQA+, male friendship, bromance, noona romances, happy/clear-cut endings & story-driven plots. I usually dislike episodic Dramas, embarrassing comedy, horror/anything super gory or with zombies, anything to do with time travel as well as bittersweet/sad/ambiguous or completely tragic endings. I don't mind sad or very serious moments though. There are of course exceptions but usually I avoid tragedies whenever possible! I also cannot stand stories where the "bad guy" doesn't get his just-deserts or stories where everyone dies at the end; unless of course it's the bad guy dying then that's fine! I am also not particularly interested in all female cast Dramas/Movies either.
