Heyy! I really love survival game tv shows, but i'm unsure of what new ones I could try. I wondered if anyone could recommend shows I might like based on my favourites! :D

1. ⁠Alice In Borderland
2. ⁠If Wishes Could Kill
3. ⁠Tomodachi Game
4. ⁠Classroom Of The Elite
5. ⁠The Hunger Games (movies)
6. ⁠The Maze Runner (movies)
7. ⁠Pyramid Game
8. ⁠Squid Games

Thanks!! - I'll take movie recs too but TVshows / series are preferable.

Hi everyone! I have seen 9 whole jdramas and I am not sure what to watch next.

I have dabbled in a few things after those, but nothing really stuck.

So I would appreciate any recs and I would also LOVE to hear if you are a fan of any one of these shows:))) It would make my day!

My Favorites:

• Light of My Lion (Raion no Kakurega): Loved the suspense and how wholesome it was seeing two men looking after a child. Lion is easily my favorite character.
• After School Doctor (Hōkago Karute): I really liked the idea of a doctor in a school nurse role. The medical cases were interesting and I liked the school social scenes. Shinoya-sensei and Makino-sensei are my faves, especially the plotlines about Shinoya’s exhaustion and Naoki and his sister.
• Stepmother and Daughter Blues (Gibo to Musume no Burūsu): It was so satisfying watching the characters grow to love and adapt to each other. The female lead is my favorite.
• I'm Mita, your housekeeper (Kaseifu no Mita): I loved her robotic energy and how she handles the household with so much precision.
• Tatsuki: Too Kind for School (Tatsuki Sensei wa Ama Sugiru!): I love the idea of a safe space for school refusers and how we get to know one kid each episode. I’m currently watching this and can’t wait for the new episode this Friday!
• The Full-Time Wife Escapist (Nigehaji): Such a quirky, wholesome slow-burn. I like the leads equally, their bond is so unexpected.
• Divorce Lawyer (Rikon Bengoshi): Still one of my favorites for the law office vibes. Takako Mamiya is the best; she’s blunt and smart but still principled.
• Loved One: I didn't know forensic medicine could be this interesting. The main lead has a very cool way detective way of thinking, but without the mental instability that some of these detective leads have. I can't wait for next Sunday's episode.
• Turn to me Mukai-Kun (Kocchi Muite yo Mukai-kun): I love how Mukai finds himself at the end and with whom he finds himself. It's a cute romance!

Thank you very much!!
