Oh, dramas

You know you've watched too many dramas when the same building starts popping up everywhere. It's like they have simply run out of places to film.

This castle is freakin' everywhere. It is Japan's default drama building.



This is a screenshot from Yukan Club.

And here it is in the fall, as seen in Atashinchi no Danshi.



Again in winter for Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge.



Oooooh, here it is at night in 0 Goushitsu no Kyaku.



Last but not least, here it is in Kaibutsuland, a whole other dimension!



This castle gets around.

I thought the same thing too. I haven't even watched all these dramas mentioned above but with the ones I did, I definitely took notice. :)

I didn't finish some of these dramas but that castle is just too recognizable. Just one glance was enough to take notice.

This castle is everywhere. I'm tempted to watch more rich-people dramas just to see if how many times people use it.

What a slutty little castle, spreading it all around town!

It's been with everyone. Jin, Kame, Ohno...twice!

I think it's also in Liar game. Now the question is, is it a real building that all these dramas take their location shoots to, or is it a facade that they drag out of storage every season? I have not yet been ambitious enough to see whether all these dramas aired on the same station.

I'm gonna have to look through Liar Game again to see for sure. And I took notice of it again because I was watching the Room 0's "Making of", and they definitely went on location for the outside shots. So I'm sure it's an actual castle. And apparently a popular spot for couples to go to.

I always laugh when that castle shows up!

I can't help laughing, either. It's like "hey, this piece to real estate seems to change hands a lot..."

CRYING IN LAUGHTER OMG

also is it bad that i went "oooh, yukan club, that means jin has been there, and kame+tego were there for yamanade- YEAH BRAIN, YOU JUST WENT THERE, WHAT'S UP" cause i think it probably is. i need to stop thinking about this.

Not at all. I thought the same thing. Let's just list the number of Johnnys that's been there: Jin, Yoko, Taguchi, Kame, Tegoshi, Ohno x2, and probably the rest of the 0 Goushitsu no Kyaku cast. I think I found a new place to visit in Japan.

LOL. I guess it's easier to have a staple castle than to go searching for a new one each time!

It maybe just as sad that I've seen all of the dramas you've listed, lol!

What a ho, that castle. :|

Hahaha, that's hilarious! I wonder where it is.

[identity profile] godsgirl7.livejournal.com 2011-08-16 05:07 pm (UTC)(link)
lol I didn't realize it was in Kaibutsu-kun too!
