Will be looking forward for this one...

Here's a look at the drama's entry in the Japanese wikipedia:
http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/花子とアン

Is it me or do I see a reference to the "Anne of Green Gables" novel in this one?

EDIT: WTH at this section:

音楽 - 梶原由記

Ongaku - Kajiwara Yuki???

^ Wow, another drama. Its good she's composing something new but lets hope it doesnt end up half unreleased like the 15-year old boy movie. The music is gonna be calm and piano-ish with 1-2 vocals at most though judging from Achilles to Kame and the 15-year old boy movie.

LOL @ the google translation of the summary

Heroine Hanako's advanced to the road translator with a fart teacher of life back home,

(plz someone translate it properly http://www9.nhk.or.jp/dramatopics-blog/)

 

[Kirito]

I'm going to watch this just because Kajiura composed it.

And also because I already miss her compositions.

 

[george1234]

^ Yes we will have to wait a year till the Mirai Fukuin and Rebellion OST comes out, while this drama will probably get standalone OST if it does).

 

[chrisgarci]

Oooh... it turns out that Yuki's name is now fixed on the Wikipedia entry.

音楽 - 梶浦由記

Hope this one turns interesting, since most of the J-Dramas I know that became popular overseas are based on manga (Hana Yori Dango, Hana Kimi, Gokusen, etc)

 

[george1234]

Does anyone know any english site that has J-dramas for streaming or download ? Because I will need it when this starts airing...

 

[Lorde-Kowz]

Might be cool. I'm guessing it's going to be mostly instrumental, with maybe the OP or ED with vocals.

Does anyone know any english site that has J-dramas for streaming or download ? Because I will need it when this starts airing...

The site where you got the Historia episodes.

 

[LianaIlia36]

^Can you share that again with me? You can PM it if you want.

I want to watch it now! I miss her instrumental works too, and the Madoka movies ost just wasn't enough. Was hoping for a new anime, but hopefully that'll be soon too. But this is cool. I hope I can watch it to hear the music.

^ Yes but this one depends on the member's contribution, while the anime subbing + streaming sites are much more organised. Do we know if will sub the drama or we will have to watch it raw?

 

[MegyTomitatsu]

Hmmm, I've never watched a jdrama
But sounds interesting for Kajiura-sama's compositions. I look forward for instrumentals as well, especially piano ones.

 

[casarina26]

Oooh, that's interesting.

*marks website*

Will wait to see how the show goes.

 

[Shin Hih]

I'm going to watch this just because Kajiura composed it.

Same goes for me...

 

[LianaIlia36]

While I liked Achilles' soundtrack, it did not really stand out to me, so I'm hoping this one will be different, but from the sounds of it it is going to be piano again. I am just hoping for more of a variety, maybe some with violin, or drums or something. *hoping*

 

[george1234]

@Liana: Its not only achilles to Kame, you can also check out the 15 Sai no Shiganhei tracks (tracks 14-29 of disc 2) the tokyo kyoudai ones (tracks 2-7 of disc 1) and Tsuki ones (tracks 20-23 of disc 1) of the works for soundtrack (all these are from drama movies) http://canta-per-me.net/discography/the ... oundtrack/

 

[LianaIlia36]

^I know, I was just saying that I hope it's different from Achilles, since people are saying it's going to be mostly piano music, not that I hate piano, I love it actually, the ost for that movie just didn't stand out to me.

 

[Lorde-Kowz]

Well, it depends on the tone of the show. She could also end up composing stuff like Hard Struggle, Kyota, and Fellow Feeling from Aquarian Age.

BTW, I read that episodes last 15 minutes.

it's a new NHK Renzoku TV Shousetsu series (15 mins. short drama that airs daily in the morning on NHK).

 

[george1234]

^ Daily? So that's how 150 episodes will fit in just 5 months

daily dose of Yuki music!

*bump*

While browsing my Yuki library I fall on this http://canta-per-me.net/lyrics/endlesssky/ which is a song for a TV drama Yuki had composed in 2008 (same year with dreamport - maybe that's why its released by King Records) - maybe she could make such songs for Hanako to Anne too ? (I hope they are better than this though :S)
