The ratings of “Ghost Friends” are just ridicules, episode two was even worse than episode one with the rating of 3.7. I’m also starting to see why the ratings is so low, there’s so much flaws in this drama that I spotted in episode two.
Anyways first off with episode two short summaries then I’ll go onto the flaws of the drama.
Continuing from the previous episode Kaito told Asuka that he’s actually a ghost but was inside a human body. Asuka didn’t believe him at first but when she touches Kaito’s hand it was cold like ice, Kaito gave Asuka his business card so that she could contact her when she have news of Misora (the female ghost in episode one).
Misora were Kaio’s girlfriend, both of them died in a car accident which is where Asuka’s car accident happened. Misora were randomly being inside human bodies and were saying how that’s the new start of her life and it’s so fun etc.
Kaito found Misora inside a top photographer body, both of them finally got a chance to chat but Misora refused to go back where she really belongs. Asuka met Misora on the street they had a little chat at the park, Asuka found out that Misora was Kaito’s girlfriend and saying how being inside of human bodies is fun etc.
While walking to school Takumi asked if he could be friends with Asuka and Asuka replied that she’s not in the mood of talking to guys. Takumi then asked “Do you like someone?” Asuka replied “Maybe…” Could it be Kaito? The art teacher always get bullied and ignored by other students, he doesn’t have the confident in himself. This lead to a ghost who went inside his body, Misora was the one who taught that ghost how to get inside of human bodies. After having a talk with Miku, Asuka decided to think of her own things instead of caring about the ghosts so she accepted Takumi as a friend.
Since Asuka decided not to get involved in Kaito’s and Misora’s problems, she sent the photos that was given to her by Misora to Kaito. While Asuka was walking pass the art teacher at school she saw a ghost who got inside of the art teacher’s body. The art teacher immediately changed and was more passion towards students than he was before. Afterward Asuka saw people on TV who’s glowing, meaning there’s a ghost. She know things are getting out of hand so she contacted Kaito again to discuss about it. Kaito explained about how the accident happened and what happened after they both died.
While Asuka was on the street she got distracted by 3 street gangsters, the art teacher then comes and tries to recue her but instead he got badly beat up and was sent to hospital afterward.
The ghost explained that Misora taught him how to get inside of human bodies, saying how when he was alive he didn’t have the guts to do things so when he’s dead he wants to do things that he couldn’t. Kaito and Asuka persuaded him that it will being trouble to the humans. From then onward that ghost helped the human without being inside an human body and he also felt happy about it.
Kaito received the photos that Asuka sent him, he said that Misora mention she wanted to visit this place and that she rarely will want to visit any places but unfortunately they both died and couldn’t visit the place together. Asuka cheered him up and convincing him to go there as he might find Misora there as well. So the two of them visit the place and they saw Misora there as well, again Kaito trying to persuad Misora to go with him and saying she’s not being herself. Misora then explained that because she loves Kaito so much that she wasn’t being herself before, now that she’s dead she is free to do whatever she wants.
These are some of the flaws I spotted while watching the drama.
- Ghost could pick up objects but they cannot touch a human? For example the photo below this was in episode one, Miku was leaning onto Takumi but obviously Takumi didn’t felt someone there. But throughout the drama we can ghosts picking objects up.
- Since ghost it’s something that does not have any volume or can be touchable, there shouldn’t be a shadow. But the photo below clearly showed his shadow. I’ve seen some ghost movies like that as well.
- Lastly, since Kaito is dead and he’s only inside a human body. Shouldn’t they portray it be two different person for his living and dead life? As we can see in episode two, while Kaito was reading Misora’s blog there’s a photo of him and misora and now he’s dead and inside a human body, it has the same face as his living life?
That’s all, but I’ll still be continuing watching this drama for the sake of Nissy.
i know huh..so yeah if kaito is inside someone else’s body so he’s face wud change into his original face..and the human body his using its not his..so doesnt make sense..but ill just g with the whole episodes
Yeah it doesn’t make sense, but I’ll still be watching it. It’s better not to think too much about it otherwise might as well not watch it.
hi, im just a “ghost friends” watcher, and i saw your post about kaito in his borrowed body..i just wanted to add my view. i thought that the old lady,the ghost keeper (?) told him that he could “borrow” his own body in order to find misora, his gf, cuz theyre supposed to go to the other realm together. cuz he says that hes not posessing anyone, like misora.
I kind of thought of that but because I dont think I’ve read about that while watching it… Maybe I should watch it again.
hi! do you know where to watch this! i only manage to watch till episode 1..where can i find episode two?
thks….
For English subs, I think only episode 1 is released. Ikemen Subs are subbing it, can find their LJ to check out the progression on episode 2.
where can i find Ghost Friends Episode 2 ??
what web site?
Hi! Just wanted to give my view on your findings as well ^^
Actually, if you think about poltergeists, it can happen: poltergeists make objects move around (although I think it’s more an energy thing than “picking up” objects but I don’t know ^^) but they can’t actually touch people.
As for the other two, I was questioning about the Kaito being in his own body too… I mean, wouldn’t anyone notice? How would he get a job cos they’d find out for sure if he was dead.
Still a huge fan of Ghost Friends nonetheless ^^!! Thanks for the summaries! Gives me something to look forward to while I wait for subs ^^!
Poltergeists? That’s my first time hearing that word. Well maybe your right.
Yah I was also thinking if he’s using his own body, wouldn’t anyone notice that he’s dead already? Unless he was not living in Tokyo before so nobody knows who he was.
can someone please tell me when the episode gets released? is it in a month or a week?
i like this drama even if it has some faults
i got to say thought that guy kaito is kinda …um… cute
I’m not sure which day of the week but they release 1 episode per week.
YES, Kaito is really cute! You should see him when he smile, he’s super cute when he smile!!!
when does each episode gets released?
