Yo minna! Posting kinda late, but had a lot of work to do while listening to j-pop / j-rock songs that i love. So that got me thinking in regards to my post today. Usually when i do the “You gotta love…” section, i only choose one artist or one band or one actor or actriess. Well now i can’t seem to decide on just one, so i generalized everything in “j-hotties” that i’m going to mention. However, i must say this: this is NOT a top! This is NOT the order of my prefferences and that’s because i can’t set a order. I love them all! Fangirl all the way!
So brace yourselves and start drooling!
1. Gackt (Gackt Camui) – born July 4th, 1973 (according to Wiki, but everyone knows how old he used to say he was), from Okinawa.
2. Hyde (L’Arc-en-Ciel) – born January 29th, 1969; from Wakayama
3. Koki Tanaka (KAT-TUN) – born November 5th, 1985, from Chiba
4. Miura Haruma – born April 5th, 1990, from Ibaraki
5. Yamamoto Yusuke (aka “that aura kid”) – born January 19th, 1988, from Aichi
6. Kamenashi Kazuya (KAT-TUN) – born February 23rd, 1986, from Edogawa, Tokyo.
7. Matsumoto Jun (Arashi) – born August 30th, 1983, from Tokyo
8. Mizushima Hiro – born April, 13th, 1984, from Tokyo
9. Miyavi – born September 14th, 1981, from Konohana-ku, Osaka.
10. Oguri Shun – born December 26th, 1982, from Kodaira, Tokyo.
Bottom line is: YOU GOTTA LOVE ‘EM!!!
We’ll continue this j-hotties pics postings with other 10 of them next week.
Yo minna! Wait a sec, i need a smoke for this one. Yoshaaa! All set, here we go!
No, no, no! Don’t run anywhere. Rukia will definetly protect us. So what have you been up to lately? Even tho i’m in the middle of my wedding preparations and my mom has a broken leg (so i have to do all the chores around the house) i still found a little time for some j-doramas and some mangas (well i read these at work; don’t tell my boss tho) and i’ve been keeping up with Bleach and Naruto. I finally saw Crows Zero and i loved it of course. You name one Oguri Shun movie or dorama that is not cool and i’ll tell you that you’re crazy. That actor can pull off any type of character.
Not to mention Takayuki Yamada who was absolutely great! If you haven’t seen it, you should do that right now. Actually you just click here and go see it. You can find the second part of the movie on the same site.
A few days ago i felt like watching Midori no Hibi again. I remembered how i laughed when i first watched it. Guess what? It was the same this time. I’ll have to say this once again: Midori no Hibi is the funniest anime i’ve ever seen.
Also, believe it or not, i haven’t seen The Ring (yes, the movie) until last week or so. I was curious to see what was so scary about it, so… i gave it a try. It was kinda… hmm… Well i guess Sasuke and Kabuto will never watch it again.
Teehee! Well that’s pretty much it. I still have to write lots of j-dorama reviews, i just hope i’ll find the time for them. You know, it’s pretty difficult to write a j-dorama review. I mean… from my point of view and the way i write them. Actually it shouldn’t be so difficult because i just write them randomly, i don’t follow a pattern or anything, but it’s still… hmm…
Oh! Akanishi Jin’s US concerts have started and fangirls have already started posting pics and videos on youtube and Tumblr. I can’t watch them. Makes me feel funny. I want him back with KAT-TUN because KAT-TUN doesn’t feel complete without Jin. That’s just my opinion.
Well anywayz, that’s all for today’s rant. It really sucks that i don’t find the time to post every day, but i’ll try my best to post as often as i can. Ganbarimasu ne?~
Yo minna! It sure has been a while… So many things happened that i didn’t have time for anything! I really hope i’ll be able to post again on a regular basis. Gomen!
Well i know i told you i’d write the review for Hana Kimi even though it’s been a while since i saw it. I just can’t get over it because i can definetly say it was the best dorama i’ve ever seen. Honestly.
I have to warn you that it’s going to be a long post with many many caps because it was impossible to choose only a few. When you see them and when you see Hana Kimi you’ll know what i mean. So anywayz, there are many great actors in this dorama, so it just had to turn out this awesome.
Also in other roles we have Okada Masaki and Kimura Ryo. Anywayz, as you can see, lots of great names here. Now if these guys won’t make you laugh in Hana Kimi, then you have some serious issues. Let me tell you a few things about the storyline.
Ashiya Mizuki (Horikita Maki) is a Japanese girl who was raised in California and now she has returned to her home country in order to make her dream come true: meet her idol – the high jumper Sano Izumi (Oguri Shun) who has quit this sport after an accident. Problem is that Sano is studying at an all-boys high school, so Mizuki decides to hide her identity as a girl – she cuts her hair short, lowers her voice and uses a special vest to hide her chest – and she enters the same highschool.
Luckily, she is assigned to share the bedroom with Sano, so she gets to know him little by little even though he is cold and keeps to himself. However, Mizuki finds that her other colleagues are quite reliable and fun to hang around with. She becomes best friends with Nakatsu Shuichi (Ikuta Toma) who will – very soon after meeting her – start having doubts about his sexual prefferences, being attracted to Mizuki.
Nakatsu is definetly my favorite character ever and Toma Ikuta did an awesome job playing him. Nakatsu would always get nosebleeds from imagining different things regarding Mizuki and at some point he just couldn’t take it anymore and he yelled with all his might: “ORE WA HOMO JA NAI!!!!” (“I am not gay!!!”) This was the best moment of Hana Kimi, i can tell you that.
Nakatsu’s monologues are so damn funny and i promise you’ll love him. Here are some more Nakatsu moments caps.
Well every time i talk about Hana Kimi, i talk about Nakatsu, but the main plot is the love story between Sano and Mizuki.
Mizuki tries her best to make Sano jump again and in the process of doing that, she falls in love with him. When Mizuki’s brother comes to visit her, Sano accidentally hears their conversation, therefore, he finds out that his roommate is actually a girl and he decides to help her keep that secret without telling her anything. At some point, Nakatsu sees Mizuki and Sano hugging so of course he trips imagining different things. Sano’s explanation is comes very calmly:
In the mean time, Mizuki and her colleagues go through many school events planned by the principal. Of course, there is another memorable phrase: “Because the principal said so!” In order to imagine these things, have a look at this particular event:
Another important moment in Hana Kimi is Sano and Mizuki’s first kiss. When Sano gets drunk, he becomes…. “The Kiss Monster!”. He simply kisses anyone near him whether it’s a guy or a girl. So after Sano kisses Mizuki, she finds out that he had actually kissed most of their colleagues…
Mizushima Hiro plays Nanba Minami (Nanba-sempai), the second dorm leader. I also loved his character a lot. When Mizuki first meets him, Nakatsu warns her to stay away from him because “if you stay near him, you’ll get pregnant!” Even though at that point, everyone thought Mizuki was a boy…
As Sunako-chan (Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge) would say now: MABUSHIIIIIIIII !!!~
Well anywayz, this was definetly a loooong post. If you haven’t watched Hana Kimi yet, stop anything you’re doing and start watching it. Also, the theme song is addictive. The song is called Ikenai Taiyou by Orange Range. Listen to it here:
Well, now it is over. Have to close this post with this:
Yo minna! Well i took some time off from the “blog-work”, but it wasn’t because i wanted to. A lot of things happened and you wouldn’t believe me if i told you what. Even i still can’t believe …
Anywayz, i know today was supposed to be J-news Friday! but let’s just say this is my last day of holiday and i’ll just talk about random stuff.
First things first: ever since i got a Twitter account, i can’t seem to find time for anything! I can’t seem to manage my free time anymore. It’s like i actually don’t have any. But i do like Twitter and i like “fangirling” over there. Oh! My account – http://twitter.com/AnderaYoko . I know it’s pretty stupid as my latest tweets are on the sidebar, but still…
Ok so anywayz, while i was still in the process of getting aquainted with Twitter, i also got a Tumblr account for my “fangirling thing”. My Tumblr account is – http://andera-yoko.tumblr.com/ . I’ve had this account for several days and i have about 1200 pics posted… Most of them are with KAT-TUN members, but there are also pics with Arashi members, Oguri Shun, Mizushima Hiro, Ikuta Toma, Jiro Wang and so on….
Speaking of KAT-TUN and Twitter, all you people reading this and have a Twitter account (if you don’t, make one just for this; then you can give it up if you don’t want to use it anymore he he!), i want to inform you of a little project that KAT-TUN fans are giving a try to. KAT-TUN is celebrating 4 years since their debut on 22nd of March. So all you gotta do is get on your Twitter and use #realface when twitting.
Oooookey. That’s it. I’m gonna enjoy my last day of holiday! Beautiful day outside!
Yo minna! I’m afraid my posts will not be daily during this period as i really lack free time. I’m really sorry about that, but things will get better soon. I hope (?).
Anywayz, let’s talk about Oguri Shun. Who doesn’t love Oguri Shun? Actor, director, seiyu and of course hot as hell. The j-doramas starring him that i’ve seen and i definetly wholeheartedly recommend are: Gokusen, Hana Kimi, Hana Yori Dango and the one i’ve recently started watching, Tokyo Dogs. I recommend you start with Hana Kimi and Hana Yori Dango. I swear you’ll love this guy. He also won some prizes for his acting in these two.
In the mean time, here’s an awesome Oguri Shun wallpaper.
A really big thank you to whoever did this. Watch those j-doramas. You won’t stop laughing! I’ll write the reviews for all of them as soon as i get some free time.
