Or Atami thingy Investigators. The Tengoku e Youkoso one with Chiaki.
I watched a few back in the day. Great Teacher Onizuka. And one about some girl who gets bullied and it's nine episodes of her being endlessly bullied. And a silly one called Gal Circle of some circle of ghetto Tokyo girls and a cowboy, and they do para para in the ending. Oh, and there's Densha Otoko, about an otaku who falls in love with a woman on 2ch and it's nine episodes of him trying to stammer out his feelings while his internet friends root for him. It was quite charming, actually. I haven't found a The Sopranos or Mad Men of J-Drama (aren't many of them based on manga? MPD Psycho rings a bell. edit: yes it is) or anything but they can be fun, light entertainment.
