Just finished watching "Juui Dolittle". How can I not watch it when it has Oguri Shun, Inoue Mao AND Narimiya Hiroki? I totally forgot the former pair used to be Rui and Makino when watching though. Good acting :)

Wah, I had expected the show to be over-flowing with cuteness and educational messages, but it wasn't. It was pretty subtle, and yet I've lost track of how much I've cried watching the show. My favourite parts were the stray dog+rabbit story and the pigeon one. I like how they have a running storyline throughout that ends in the final episode, on top of introducing 2 animals per episode. It's amazing how the Japanese can make shows that are so heart-warming without being clichéd. Tottori-sensei appeared cold and aloof at the beginning, but as the show progressed he began to show his human side. The transformation was convincing, unlike those Taiwanese shows where the characters go from main villain to repent-and-turn-over-a-new-leaf. And of course, I love the soundtrack!
Makes me wanna own a dog. :P
