The Pen is Mightier Than the Sword: Best Screenplays
84th Annual Academy Awards Preview Part I
I’m a huge movie fan, as if you couldn’t tell by the majority of my reviews here on nandake..? And in hand with that, I love the Oscars. Some people say awards shows are unnecessary, circle jerks and popularity contests, but I still love this Hollywood tradition. So over this week I’ll be putting up a little preview guide to the upcoming Academy Awards.

tenkei's Miss Right Now: Rola
Lately I’ve been captivated by a young, up and coming model. She appears on TV pretty regularly, and I love when I happen to catch a show she’s on. She’s cute and funny and I just enjoy watching her. It’s been a while, but I finally have a new Miss Right Now. Rola da yo~!

Laughing at Young Men in Bras
Daily Lives of High School Boys
What do you call a series that should be starring a completely different set of characters? A genre that is usually populated by saccharin, overly cute, bubbly yet hilarious teenage girls?

These Seven, Unlucky for Others
Lucky Seven episode 1
Rounding out my drama reviews for this season, we finally make our way to perhaps the drama with the most buzz. With a prime cast, a decent concept, and good production, Lucky Seven seems to be the must watch for most general Japanese drama fans. The show should be able to pull in viewers pretty easily, but will it be lucky enough to hold on to them?
