Anyone else seen this? I'm almost done with it, and I kinda loved it!
This show is remarkable in that a message board plays a leading roll in the series. I would say that it was "one of the first times message board culture is portrayed on TV," but I'd totally be talking out my ass.
In any case, I recommend it. I was surprised to find that a thread did not already exist for it.
(But there WAS one for Nathan Barley! That show also kicked butt!)

Ohhhhhhhh man, I loved that show. I really liked that actress who plays Hermes. (I'm terrible with names.)

Oh yeah! She's great and (I know it'll be censored, but dare I say) DREAMY!
(I vote that D R E A M Y be uncensored, btw)

It took me a while to get over the over-the-top affectations of Densha himself, but his performance grew on me as the series progressed...And, of course, it is a very anime sort of style of acting. Just a little jarring to see it enacted by a real dude, I suppose.
