Well, I made this post in June 2018, half year in the year. I usually watch seasonal drama based on ratings, recomendation from friends, and the actors. From many dramas of 2017, I want to give some recomendation for everyone that maybe want to watch some awesome dramas (based on my opinion).

| Japanese drama recommendation 2017 |
Romance / Romance Comedy
1.
Tokyo Tarareba Musume : It's simply because I like romance between woman and younger man. Plus, Sakaguchi Kentaro is very cute here. If you want some romance, comedy, friendship and life motivation.

Boku Unmei no Hito Desu: For pretty face lovers! Yamapi and Kame reunion after populer drama 'Nobuta wo Produce'. The romance story is simple yet so cute. If you want to watch some light romance drama with candy eyes then this should be best option.

3.
Kahogo no Kahoko: If you want some sweet comedy, family relationship and super cute romance then this is the best choice. Kahoko is an overprotected girl who falls in love with art student (who is also orphan) in her colleague. The relationship between those two is really funny to watch. Not to mention Mitsuki Takahato cute expression and Takeuchi Ryoma's charisma.

9.
Keiji Yugami : I wonder why this detective drama got low rating despite its good story. Kamiki Ryunosuke and Tadanobu Asano are guarantee of best act!

Okusama wa Toriatsukai Chuui : Ayase Haruka played another action drama! She proves that she can play many roles. The couple Ayase Haruka and Nishijima Hidetoshi reminds me of their sibling story in Yae no Sakura. This drama is about couple consist of ex-spy housewife and public security officer husband. This drama is also about the friendship between neighbor housewifes.

Profession
13.
Rikuo : Another best drama in 2017. Just like Shitamachi Rocket previous year, Rikuo is a drama full of motivation and inspiration. Furthermore for ikemen lover as me, Yamaken and Ryoma in one drama is too good to be true but here they are in Rikuo!
