A J-Dorama we never knew exists...

If you are a big fan of J-doramas (like for instance Hana Yori Dango, Gokusen, and the Japanese version of Hana Kimi) and you are always addicted to those, let me tell you some J-dorama we never knew it existed a few years back.

Rewind back in the year 2000, and you will remember the only Japanese TV drama we never knew it was existed now on its 10th anniversary. This J-dorama is titled Trick (日本名:トリック)


TRICK highlights the adventures of a young female magician named Naoko Yamada (played by Yukie Nakama, from Gokusen) and an crazed professor named Jiro Ueda (played by Hiroshi Abe) in their investigations for something supernatural. Seems creepy to tell the entire TRICK Storyline. There are movie versions of this creepy TV. As of now, there is a third movie showed in cinemas since May 8. Seems that TV Asahi aired Trick one last time since May in celebration of the show's 10th anniversary. The special presentation aired in TV Asahi since May 15. Seems why nobody told me I should have watch this? We think the role of Naoko Yamada, played by Yukie Nakama, is essentially cool and awesome in the eyes of an J-dorama fan.

To add more TRICK for TRICK fans, Konami (famous for the flagship titles such as Metal Gear Solid, Dance Dance Revolution, and Silent Hill) made up a game based on the TV series!



This is quite new, but the game follows an all-new TRICK story you won't find it on TV! 

Don't think I'm bored about this. I think Yukie Nakama-san is great for portraying the role of a talented magician, in many ways!



The egg is cracked! Time to celebrate the 10th anniversary of this mysterious J-dorama we want to watch it.
