Drama rant #31: ROOKIES
Annyeong ^^
It's been a while but here is a rant about the drama and movie ROOKIES. I didn't do a rant about the special because it was only a recap of the drama.
So enjoy ^^
Rookies
I watched this drama because Yamamoto Yusuke is in the movie that was made after this drama. So to know the story I watched the drama.
This is yet another school drama with yankees not fitting in until they get an awesome teacher who believes in them. What makes this one different is that it isn't so focused on the school as other school dramas but on baseball. Since the yankees used to be a part of the baseball team the teacher Kawato becomes their coach after realising that playing baseball together is a dream they have.
I really liked this drama because I like sports (you'd never guessed that, would you?) and Kawa is different to other teachers in like Gokusen and GTO. He has a past but he's never given up on his dream. You'll probably think that this is the same as the other teachers but I think you'll understand if you watch it.
The students are another reason to watch this drama. They're much more cuter than other students (can yankees be cute??) and throughout the drama you'll create a bond to each student. When I started watching this drama I didn't remember all names so I created some nicknames which made it more fun.
Missibissi - Mikoshiba: I'm so happy that he's one of the mains in this drama. Because of his character the writers could have made him appear more in a few episodes and then fade away slowly. And I'm so happy they didn't do that. I loved him throughout this drama and he grew so much during it. I'm so proud over our little Missibissi.
I call him Missibissi because his name sounds a bit like that car brand (Mitsubishi) and a long time ago I called that car brand Missibissi because I didn't know cars xD
Koide Keisuke is amazing. He's been in Gokusen too, I remember him, and he's really good!
Aniya: Aniya didn't get a nickname because his name is so easy to remember. I was thinking about counting how many times he says "shut up, baka" throughout the drama but I only thought about that in like the middle of the drama so I scrapped that idea. But IF there is someone who's just started watching or are gonna start and will count, please let me know the results! His talking is really funny and I laughed almost all the time he was on. I'm really thankful he wasn't the main like Matsujun is in Gokusen for example. I think I would've hated the drama if he was.
Sekime - Sekikawa: Is it possible to fall in love with a guy in an instant? Yes! Sekikawa made me fall in love with him the first time I saw him. And I would've never thought that I would think of him as hot either. But I do. I'm in love with Nakao Akiyoshi. Watch the drama and you might understand why.
I don't know why I called him Sekime but I had multiple names for him. Sakikawa, Sakikewa, Seki and more.
Shinjo: Didn't get a nickname because his name is also really easy to remember.
I didn't like him and I don't like Shirota Yu. He's good in Hana Kimi and great as the sister in Arakawa Under The Bridge but he's not doing it for me in this drama.
Wakana: It wasn't that easy to remember his name but it was kind of impossible to make up a nickname for him too.
Although he's stupid, he's still the mood maker. And together with Hiyama, they make a great duo.
Hiyama: No nickname that made it. I had at least one, Haya, but it wouldn't stick either.
Hiyama is a furry dude xD but together with Wakana, they're really great.
Reggie - Okada: You will know when you see him why I called him Reggie.
But seriously, Sato Takeru is playing Reggie and I don't know. He was kind of bland in this drama. He who's usually great didn't make much of an impact on the drama.
Ika - Imaoka: I still don't remember his name without cheating. But it's understandable since he has an even smaller role than "That Guy". So I'm not gonna say much except for him and "That Guy" is seriously the funniest duo ever!
That Guy - Hiratsuka: I don't remember his name without cheating either but it's okay. Because he is so ridiculous and funny xD
Goro - Yufune: The reason to why I call him Goro is because Igarashi Shunji plays Goro in Ninkyo Helper.
And he didn't really stand out either expect for his way of speaking which was kind of awful >__<
Kawa - Kawato: I was lazy.
I think I said enough about Kawa so I won't say more ^^
ROOKIES the movie
I didn't regret watching the drama and I was a bit scared to watch this movie because I didn't know how big role Yamamoto would have. But I really loved this movie. It's even better than the drama. Just watch it! I won't even bother making a proper review because it's too good for that!
