Densha Otoko (电车男) – the Japanese Internet Love Story

Filed in: Life Log — January 17th, 2006

It is over 4 am now, I had just finished the last episode of “Densha Otoko (电车男)”…

Densha Otoko 电车男

A true love story turned to bestselling novel, created from the Internet BBS, 2channel to blockbuster hit movie. Itoh Misaki plays Aoyama Saori, working as an office lady at a MNC, gets into trouble with a drunkard on a train. She’s saved by Yamada Tsuyoshi, played by Itoh Atsushi. As a form of appreciation, she sends him Hermes teacups. Having no experience with the opposite sex, Tsuyoshi decides to ask for help on the Aladdin Channel BBS on how to interact with Saori.

My two cents

This is a must watch for all geeks and nerds! Very touching… :(
Hopefully I will meet my Miss. Hermes soon… Gambateh neh, densha otoko!

    I er… download english fansub version… btw, there’s a densha otoko like BBS where you can rant about your single life too. Check this out.

    Oh yea, I’ve read the english translation of what densha-san really posted on the BBS. It’s so alike like what in the drama, except there’s some juices added to the drama. Its a fun show :D

    try searching for TV-Nihon fansub. That’s the english version. I’m not sure whether putting a link here is legal or not, since that drama is license. Clue here: search for TV-Nihon.

    Cheers :)

    @kiankeat: yes, it is drama series. The movie version came first but I don’t like the actress (not pretty :P ).

    By the way, I just bought the densha otoko special edition. :)
