Byplayers: Season 2 (2018)

Sou da sou da

Different setting from first season - our favorite "by-players" (minus Terajima) got stuck on an uninhabited island.

Unfortunately I could only watch the 2nd season raw. My Japanese is enough to understand the main story, but I am sure I missed out on all of the subtle jokes/references :(

Still, good acting overcomes language barriers, as they say.

----- spoilers below--------

turned out that they did go to the right island, but landed on the wrong side. but since they were late, filming went ahead, their characters were taken over by other actors. they ended up being this motley choir crew shouting "sou da sou da" at the end of the main characters' lines. (I dont understand why Endo Kenichi was in drag though....)

as in the 1st season, each episode features a special guest "byplayer". there is even one episode where the focus are on female byplayers

and RIP Sugiren :(
