For me, I think the best is Hana Yori Dango (Hana Dan), Hanazakari ni Kimitachi E (Hana Kimi), Atashinchi no Danshi, and Hotaru no Hikari 1 and 2. I also recommend Ryuusei no Kizuna and Uta no Oniisan...these fall a little out of the romantic/comedy category, but they are pretty close.
I can't think of any other off the top of my head.
Romantic/Sad:
-Mioka
-Ichi Rittoru no Namida (1 Liter of Tears)
-Koizora (Sky of Love)
I'm sure I can come up with more if I think really hard but my brain isn't cooperating with me right now...sorry! I hope this helps!
You can watch these subbed on dramacrazy.net or mysoju.com :)
OK, I can only give you my favorite live action TV series. (Of course, it is also the most watched, highest rated TV show in JP TV history as well, so at least a couple of people agree with me).
Densha Otoko...which features Ito Misaki and Sato Eriko...who are quite easy on my eyes. It is funny, sad, and poignant. It is the classic Beauty and the Beast romance, featuring an Otaku and a beautiful woman. Train man (Yamada) and Hermes-tan (Aoyoma-san). BTW, the movie version sucks. The music is by ELO, Sambomaster, and CoCoNut Boys.
Sadly, it is NOT available in the US, except as a fansub which can be downloaded as a torrent, which is a legal download, as the dorama is not US licensed at present, with, sadly, no plans to do so in the future.
My favorite Korean drama is "You're Beautiful," which is now available subbed from Right Stuff.for around $45, if I remember correctly.
A story of love between Chinese from Taiwan and Japanese. I'm not sure whether or not the drama in progress of subbed but I'm sure that it'll be ^^ Check on it!
