Utsukushii Rinjin Update:

Man, I just finished watching episode #7 of the Nakama Yukie/ Dan Rei drama UTSUKUSHII RINJIN, and the ending just BLEW ME AWAY! This is ONE show that REALLY knows how to wind up an audience and keep you on your toes- Holy CRAP, what an CLIFFHANGER!


And you know, when the first episode ran and it had such a sad, melancholy ending, I thought that the theme song "Why? (Keep Your Head Down)" by Tohoshinki , with its loud synthesizers and posturing rapping didn't match the show at all, but as the show got darker and DARKER and Nakama Yukie got more and more EVIL, the song suddenly became PERFECT for it, and every time the show would end on another intense cliffhanger and the song would start, it would always close the show with a BANG!


PS: Just noticed on the Dramawiki site that Utsukushii Rinjin's ratings have been dropping, from a great 15% during episode 2 to 9% in episode 3...what's WRONG with those viewers?! How can they NOT be as captivated as I am about this show? I know, I know, different strokes for different folks, right, right, demo saa.....AHAHAHAHA
