He really is quite adorable in this drama! Though, it always makes me cry! Curse you, Japanese dramas for pulling at my heartstrings!!!


Plus! He wears a sweatshirt from the university I graduated from Now THAT made me squee!

I remember reading about Yoiko no Mikata from Drama Wiki and that made me want to see it. But all I could find was the first episode with subs, and the rest was unsubbed. I had it on my list of dramas I wanted to see for a long while... but when I found out the people here were subbing it, I was so happy. I love Sho's acting in this, and it makes me wish there were teachers like Taiyou-sensei I really like this drama, and can't wait to see how it ends.

my nephew watches taiyou sensei everytime before he goes to sleep... very intently.
need i say more?

can't wait for episode 9!! Episode 8 is very heart warming. and ohno in it...so kawaii!!! and its nice to see how well he can talk to children. and seeing sho loves playing video games reminds me of nino...so cute!!!!! Can't wait for the last episode..hope he becomes a permanent teacher.

i haven't seen this yet. are there available downloable episodes other than 1 that already had subs on it... sho really kids ne, even in MMA 91 awww i bet he's going to be a good father...

I was going to wait until the sub is finished to watch this but I can't wait any longer... :P Sho with kids awww...!!!

When Sho's character's drawing got a thumbs down, it cracked me up. I was like, "wait till you see his real drawings!!!" LOL!! 'Cause I don't think that is Sho's real drawing, or is it?

he's so sweet in this drama!!!! he's the perfect sensei!!

this is a great drama about making your dreams come true. sakurai sho's character suzuki taiyo is quite flawed but his pure heart more than makes up for his shortcomings. the kids here are so cute.
this is also memorable because aiba masaki, ohno satoshi, and matsumoto jun have made appearances in this drama, albeit for quite a short time.

This drama was really cute, Sho was so adorable! Finally, my love for Sho is kicking in.

Every last episode I was like "Ganbatte Sho!" His character was so child-like and innocent and I thought it was hilarious that he always had a sun on his apron, Taiyo, so cute! And I was Oh-SO-HAPPY when the other Arashi boys made their appearances. Oh-chan, Aiba-chan, and even Jun! Then I sat there wondering "Where's Nino?!"

I love, love, love Yoiko No Mikata!! This series made me cry a lot, actually I've never cried more watching any other drama series than when I watched this. Probably has a lot to do with the fact that I love kids. Sho-chan can be so charming and silly. And he cried a lot during this series! hehe. He seems to have a good way of communicating with children. I love the idea of the series, showing others the long-lost innocence passion in a workfield which can be very monotonous at times, nothing too groundbreaking nor revolutionary, but due to the children's innocence and the older actors' wonderful acting, it's become a great drama to watch.

I cried during episode 6 (when Ojichan sensei passed away), cried on episode 2 when Marina-chan told Taiyou-sensei that she loves her Mommy even though Mommy's work is always so busy and she gets lonely. Cried when Daisuke-kun finally sang with the rest of the class because his Mommy finally showed up for a school event. And of course, I cried on the last episode, when everyone said goodbye to Kenta-kun. Then during the children's graduation ceremony; when they were all standing before everyone and saying things I didn't even understand (since that particular episode was not subbed). I've watched the last episode so many times now, and yet still cried every single time I watched it.

I LOVE Yoiko No Mikata. And the little actors they casted are so wonderful. I love the Principal too!! She's so sweet and gentle.

This series is definitely among the top list of my favorite dramas.

I'm watching Episode 4 right now ad its very good!

how i wished i had a preschool teacher like him.. haha! i might be the luckiest kid on earth

This is my first ever Arashi drama I'm watching and it's so cute, I'm only in episode 2 now and I can't wait to watch the rest! Thank you for this drama!

This drama is just such LOVE ! Hahaha. He was absolutely adorable in this drama. And almost all of Arashi guested in it. (Jun as Shin, and Aiba...Ohno did too. Nino was the only one that didn't) The fact that Sho cried in almost every episode really got to me. I love his tears! I just wanted to go up to him and swipe 'em off his face. His tears are so heartwarming and made me cry as well I'm on Ep. 9. Waiting for it to be subbed :]
