Drama Prime Time Report – April 16th~April 19th



Drama Prime Time Report – April 16th~April 19th

Seven new dramas aired their first episodes between Monday and Thursday, including the much-anticipated Monday drama of Fuji TV.

The fifth season of the Monday drama ‘Hancho‘ (TBS) seems to be off to a nice season with an improvement of 2.3% between the first and second episode. Fuji TV can say the same about their Monday drama ‘Kagi no Kakatta Heya‘, starring Arashi’s Ohno Satoshi, Toda Erika, and Sato Koichi. The first episode, that follows Ohno as a ‘lock and key’ otaku, attracted 18.9% viewers, which is the highest start for a Monday drama since ‘Tsuki no Koibito’ in the spring season of 2010.

On Tuesday, Fuji TV continued with the premiers and aired the first episode of ‘Legal High‘ starringSakai Masato and Aragaki Yui. However, with a rating of only 12.2%, the lawyer comedy belongs to the less appealing, mediocre dramas of that time slot. It better not drop much lower than that or it will become one of this season’s bigger disappointments for the network.

Meanwhile, ‘37-sai de Ishani Natta Boku‘ (Fuji TV) only lost 0.1% compared to last week. The peculiar late-night drama ‘Kodomo Keisatsu‘ (TBS) starring child actor Suzuki Fuku also premiered that night and recorded a rating of 2.3%.

Drama fans can finally turn on the TV on Wednesday again. TV Asahi and NTV both aired the first episode of their new Wednesday dramas, but neither really achieved an outstanding result. The detective drama ‘Answer‘ (TV Asahi) starring Mizuki Alisa started with 11.9%, while ‘Cleopatra na Onnatachi‘ (NTV) – the drama about cosmetic surgery starring Sato Ryuta – started with 9.9%. Both time slots have seen much better ratings already and there wasn’t that much unusual competition from the other networks. The ratings for the second episodes tend to be much lower than for the first episode, but those two shows need an opposite development.

Kanjani8’s Nishikido Ryo said hello again on Thursday with the start of ‘Papadol!‘ (TBS). An initial rating of 11.6% is good, but it’s not exactly a drama that makes you anticipate its next episode. Will it be able to stay at this level?. Meanwhile, ‘Kaeru no Oujo-sama‘ rose above the 10% mark with its second episode, which must have resulted in a collective sigh of relief at Fuji TV. Now it only has to stay that way or rise even further.

Midnight drama ‘Taburakashi‘ (NTV) lost another 1.1% and is now down to 2.2%.

NHK, TBS and TV Tokyo usually don’t disclose the ratings for their shows on a regular basis, therefore they won’t be included in the list below. Certain dramas or drama specials that aired on those channels and might lack ratings are still included with a ??.?% rating. This doesn’t mean that the ratings were too low to recorded.

Improvements and declines will be illustrated with the use of several icons. The colors and the numbers indicate how much the ratings have changed.

An orange color means almost no change, while a red color means the ratings dropped, and a green color means the ratings improved.
