'Jigoku Sensei Nube' (English title: Hell Teacher Nube) is another manga to anime to live action drama adaptation explaining the first long paragraph up there. Only this time, there are lots of gorgeous girls (one of them had been brought all the way from South Korea to add the gorgeousness, LOL), the infamous list of students (yes, dude, students, not pupils.) and a modern re-boot. Yeah. Modern re-boot.
I am sure most of you guys who are currently reading this post may have once read the manga or watch the anime where the setting is around elementary school pupils, am I right? I was being told that this francaise is among the strongest fan base in manga and anime world with lots of followers all around the world. 20 million copies selling for this manga way back in 1990 is no joke, ok. For the drama, the team made major changes in terms of setting by changing it into the high school setting so it may sound logical and easy to get more supporting young actors and actresses to be the students. Since the manga itself a rated R one, so should it be suitable with ... high school setting? Kids aren't appropriate to see hentai things, ok. *giggles*
In short, this upcoming drama tells the story of a part-teacher, part exorcist Meisuke Nueno a.k.a Nube who possessed a demon hand. He takes up a post at Domori High School. He cares very much for his students but his enthusiasm proves futile. A hopeless teacher who is clumsy, foolish and ridiculed by students. However, there is another side to him. He is the only teacher in Japan with psychic powers because of a devil dwelling in his left hand. When his students are attacked by monsters and evil spirits which take up residence in weak human hearts, he would risk his life to protect them by making use of his left hand. (source: Arama Japan)
Now since this francaise is a well known one back in the 90s so there were huge expectations on how does the modern reboot of this will attract die hard fans. Especially with those all-stars line up casts (note: Kanjani8's Maruyama Ryuhei, Hey! Say! JUMP's Chinen Yuri, ex-KARA's Kang Jiyoung, Kiritani Mirei, Hayami Mokomichi, Nakagawa Taishi and Yoshizawa Ryo). Look at that list again! That was a bunch! I am very sure that more well-known actors and actresses will do their cameo in each episode of this drama because really. It's a well-known francaise.
and, no, you won't see him inside. it's no use no matter how hard he ask Chinen beg the producer to have him do the cameo in this drama. he's the huge otaku of this francaise btw.
The fact that this drama will air at the Golden Time (Saturdays, 9pm JST) adding the pressure not just for the team but also to the fans. They have everything in the drama (modern reboot with oh-so-gorgeous-yummy young set of actors as students) so the fans are expecting high on this modern reboot. I myself, as I have zero knowledge about this franchise and depending the luck of high ratings in the hands of some idols starring in this drama, may give this a try. Fun fact: this is the second time Chinen starred in a supernatural themed drama with a Kanjani8 member and last time he done that, the drama (note: 'Yorozu Uranaidokoro Onmyouya e Yokoso') got pleasant average ratings.
So, I am very anxious for this drama. Are you? Catch all of these star-studded casts in the drama 'Jigoku Sensei Nube' starting 11th October 2014, 9pm JST only on channel NTV.
... and how does #teamYamaChine related to this post? Read the post again and be dazzled because did I told you that Yamada had been bugging Chinen for telling the directors and producers of Nube drama to have him in the drama? It was being rejected (as stated in the caption) at first but you know these two are suck in giving up. Last time we checked, the producers had to say no, considering Yamada is busy with his 'Ansatsu Kyoshitsu' filming, but as we know that these two notable Hey! Say! JUMP members were suck in giving up, we have this.
not the best quality, but yes. YAMADA RYOSUKE IS IN 'JIGOKU SENSEI NUBE'! just his voice. :P
