i can't see eng sub

[KnightmareSM]

@vid4anyone - for the subs to show, you need to press the CC button under the videos, right-hand hand side. I've been told this doesn't work on many cellphones, but it should work on any computer and laptop.

dang your awesome a full episode and in HD!? again sir you are awesome

[KnightmareSM]

@3taoren - :)).

I've got a few more in HD. Queen of Enka (Enka no Juuo) is a brilliant surreal comedy made by the same writer/Director/Producer team who made The Queen's Classroom. The Direction is stunning and it's also one of Amami Yuki's finest performances. I just need to manually reformat all the sub files so youtube can read them properly, which will take a few weeks, then hopefully I can get that one up too.

Thanks for uploading <3

do u have others? can u upload?

[KnightmareSM]

@ikumi19971224 - do you mean other episodes? I'm uploading, but it will probably take a few days to get them all up (keep checking the playlist on my homepage for new ones). Or do you mean other dramas? I've got some more Amami Yuki ones and will put a few of them up in time.

Thanks for watching.

i dont thinks so i love single life more and once you dont have man in your like you don need them when time come then time come but being married giving birth then what cant do what you want to do and complain rather then that be happy at what decision you make
