Drama Opening:


-------
I've only seen a few episodes of the show, And I am already completely in love with it..
I Can't believe this awesome drama didn't have any MAL discussion at the forum earlier..
Guess its better with late than never however.. So, Have you seen Maou? Are you planning to?

I got this movie from friend but I don't watch it yet. so, maybe I will try :)

I always recommend it to everyone. It's pretty high rated, but it could be higher.. :D It's amazing. <3

I did that, too. That's why I started with You're Beautiful once I started watching on DC.. because it was No. 1 :D But there are mostly idol dramas in their top 10, the really good ones are further down. :/

I watched 2 epsiodes of the Korean original The Devil & dropped it as I found it slow & boring....

You really should give it a try.. Maou is amazing.. I doubt you'll regret it..
It doesn't get all the credit it really deserves out there.. :)

Seriously, This instrumental from the Maou OST brings tears to my eyes. Nostalgia= Grace..

I'll try my luck again - Does someone know the name of the melody Naruse's music box plays? Shiori tends to hum it, too. I can't find the information anywhere. :/

I'm pretty sure that would be Over the rainbow.. Early in the drama Shiori and Ryou took a drive, That's how she found out it was ryou's favorite song. It is a beautiful music box indeed. Not that fond of the original version however.
