Winter 2017 jdoramas that should be subbed

As I am still catching up on remaining 2016 shows that I haven't watched, let's take a look at shows that are coming out this month. Anyone know where I can find download links for netlifx's Shinya Shokudo?

QUARTET

Sakamoto Yuji + Matsu Takako + Mitsushima Hikari + Matsuda Ryuhei + Takahashi Issei.

Talent wise, this is like the Golden State Warriors of jdorama. Sakamoto Yuji just needs to give us an decent script and the talent will take care of the rest. Keiko1981 will be retiming the Japanese subs so I can't wait!

SUPER SALARYMAN SANAE-SHI

Tsutsumu Shinichi + Koizumi Kyoko in a salaryman superhero parody by the writer of Yuusha Yoshihiko. How can this go wrong?

SUMUSUMU

Do you need a reason to watch a Bakarythm dorama?

TADANO HITOSHI 2017

Yes! Tadano Hitoshi has moved back to a late night slot from 9pm. Season 4 lost a lot of the sleaziness when it went to the 9pm slot. If you want a more adult, cheesy fanservice show about solving company problems that always end up in an abandoned warehouse fight, this show is for you.

SEIREI NO MORIBITO : KANASHIKI HAKAISHIN

The first season was ok. Can't hold a candle to the anime but I want to see what happens next! Barusa is protecting a girl this time and the prince has grown up? Sign me up! Still don't like the Ayase Haruka casting but I'm willing to roll with it.

RAKUEN

Let's go WOWOW! I'm just hoping it doesn't end up meh like Ishi no Mayu and Suishou no Kodou.

ONNA NO NAKA NI IRU TANNIN

NHK BS Premium shows are usually better than average and its the writer of Kageri Yuki Natsu. Its based an a novel and old movie.

UBAI AI FUYU

It looks so bad and trashy but its got Kurashina Kana and Mizuno Miki.

I have a mixed feeling about NHK BS Premium. They have too many mediocre shows: Kamogawa Shokudo, Toho Nanahun, Ofukou san, Mamagoto, Kakuregiku. For me, a meh show from Wowow is still a notch above a meh one from BS Premium.

They also made Juken no Cinderella, Kohiya no Hitobito, Kiseki no Hito, Dakara Koya, Boku no Tsuma to Kekkon Shite Kudasai, etc but I get what you mean.

Mike: I looked at D-Addicts Fansub map and virtually nothing is being subbed among the Winter, 2017 dramas. Is something going on (Networks exerting pressure on subbers?) Getting worried that this is all going to go away. That would indeed be scary for a person as addicted as I am.

If you know anything about this, please post.

@jazz lover : Looks like subbing announcements are popping up! Happy to see Rakuen is being subbed but surprisingly nothing for Quartet yet.
