Many excellent Japanese dorama series are adapted from intriguing manga series. Thus, Oricon went out and polled 500 men and women, aged between 16-29, and asked them: “Which Drama Series That is Adapted from Manga would you recommend?”.

And the highly popular Nodame Cantabile (のだめカンタービレ) managed to clinched the top spot in the polls.
Here are the rest of the results:
- Nodame Cantabile のだめカンタービレ
- ROOKIES ルーキーズ
- Liar Game ライアーゲーム
- Gokusen ごくせん
- Hanazakari no Kimitachi e 花ざかりの君たちへ ~イケメン♂パラダイス~

So how many of these dorama series have you watched? My favorite is actually Liar Game, and I’m really looking forward to seeing the conclusion in the movie.
