I've just watched the final episode of this hard hitting and gripping late night dorama about bullying in high school that was shown in Japan over the Summer period. It's shocking and difficult to watch at times but I'm glad I saw it right through to it's conclusion. The gravure idol Kii Kitano is awesome as the bullied girl Ayumi who vows to fight against the clique led by the evil and manipulative bitch Manada played by Saki Fukuda.

It was voted the no.1 in the Oricon Summer satisfaction rankings just in front of Papa no Musume and Hana no Kimi. If you haven't seen it then give it a go.

Will definitely check it out as soon as the subs are done since from what you're explaining it sounds like those where it's better to watch it all at once. I hate when a series does something that makes you angry or disturbed and you have to wait a week (or longer in this case since subs don't seem to be done yet) to see if the situation gets resolved.

I watched all of LIFE within a space of 24 hours, I was so hooked into the storyline and I hope you will be as well. It provoked strong feelings by myself whilst watching it especially concerning the teachers at the school where the bullying is taking place.

I got all the episodes subbed from the Stage6 site.

ah!
I voted in those rankings; I wanted to see how they turned out! Where can I find them? I'm actually sort of surprised it came out number 1, just because it's... really just a depressing series. I really liked it, but I absolutely can't stand watching the absense of justice go by completely in that series. :P I wanted to scream every time... sigh. But I did like it. At school I used up all my week's bandwidth to watch it, so I had better like it. XD It was good.

@penagih_dadih: Well first off only 4 episodes were released, and I think most people are going with the subs opposed to watching the RAW's. So there isn't much to talk about... Anyway... I do like how most of the cast for this Drama are 'unknown' as I generally watch things with actors I am familiar with. But my sister convinced me to watch it so I did and i got HOOKED! Too bad SOS is slow at producing the subs for this awesome series, but that is understandable as they know they are slow and they say they are more or less they are working on multiple projects with just 1 translator I think...
Hello!Fansubs is recruiting Translators and Karaoke-Typesetters, PM if interested.
OR if you need my assistance in fansubbing (QC/Encoding), let me know.

Looks like the link to the subbed LIFE episodes.

Either that or you can search 'LIFE' on veoh which will take longer.

Her friend didn't actually die. She had tried to commit suicide by jumping into traffic (I believe it was that?), but she didn't die in the attempt, she was only severely injured. She still hated Ayumu, though. Poor girl, she never did anything... sigh.

Ah, and if anyone wants the OST, I'd be happy to share. :noo:

I've also watched this drama, and i did infact like it...
Even though i felt depressed while watching it i had to keep on watching it so i could see how it ends.
After finishing it, i felt like the story was left incomplete and wanted more, maybe im just a sucker for "happy endings" :P

I know it was the last episode of the drama, but is that how the manga also ends or is there a chance for a second season?
And I also know, that noone here probably knows anything about a second season....but if the manga didnt end like this, or is still ongoing, then there's probably a chance :D

Well yeah there's still a lot bullying going on but the show doesn't really have any major villains left, i doubt midori could replace mana, i mean she's got "lackey" written all over her ^^;. Of course they could just bring in a new bitch but that'd just be the same old thing, so i dunno what else they could do in season 2.

And as much as i hate mana i would like to see her team up with ayumu, should be pretty interesting. If they ever make season 2 im definitely gonna watch it whether its gonna be better or not than the first one. Ayumu herself is reason enough for me to keep watching it :rolleyes:

  Nice show this is~ Didnt know that there is already this thread.

Well... What can i say bout this show ? Hmm Kitano Kii is cho kawaii! lol

The first few episodes is very easy to breeze through though the mid-late part

can be a bit difficult to watch through. In the end though i am glad i finish. Looking

forward to seeing more performance from Kitano and Fukuda in future :lol:
