Good evening!
I'm Nishikido Ryo!
I'm in the middle of filming for the "King of Otoko" PV.
Everyone is wearing an incredibly weird costume.
During intervals, I'd practise the Kava Kora guitar.
Time is getting lesser unexpectedly and I'm panicking, but I will work hard in order to perform something enjoyable for everyone.
There are also only two places left for the tour!!
For the sake of a good next year, it'd be good if I can have a good round up of this year.
So, be careful and don't catch a cold.
xoxo
-- "xoxo" was written as it is! Wow! This is.. Lol! He knows the meaning , RIGHT?! XD
It's morning, but why did he type Konbanwa?! XD Lol..
I wanna watch Kava Kora!! It aired on 6 Jan 2014! They congratulated Koyama LIVE!! OMG~~ I wanna watch!! XD
I miss seeing Ryo performing.. Like really performing.. Without the crazy Kanjani8 around.. Lol.. ;_;!!!!!!!!
I've never seen him in real life before.. ;_;!! How I wish he will open solo concert again, then I'll have a chance to see him!!!!!!!! ;_;!!!!!!

加藤シゲアキ『来年もよろしくお願いします』→
Firstly, it's Merry Christmas. Just like the other years, I spent it watching TV and didn't do anything.
After Christmas ends, it's just waiting for the new year to come. Spring cleaning—
Thinking back, a lot of things happened this year too. We had tour, released an album.
Releasing Senkou Scramble was also in this year. It felt like ages ago...
To say which side this year is on, I'd say it's been a quiet year.
There is "wa/rin" (ring, wheel, loop, circle) a kanji in Japanese, but it's "ko" (individual) for me. *
2012 was the year in which we released a CD with the four of us for the first time, we had LIVEs, started being a regular on "Mirai Theatre" and a radio show, and beyond all that, I debuted as a novelist.
Somehow, it was a sparkling year. Stepping from that, this year, I had the impression that we are strengthening each of those. It's like we started on continuing to level up our skills.
Continuing is more difficult than starting.
By the way, it rained this year and the ground "hardened", right. ...Didn't talk much about that though Laughs
I'm grateful to everyone from the bottom of my heart for the fact that you looked after us. It's all thanks to the fans that we're progressing forward.
so, 2014. How should I go about it.
Firstly, I'm going to do my best in "Shitsuren Chocolatier". Monday 9pm, it's because it's a drama led by my senpai! I can't become the one to drag it down, can I!
I read the original work, it's a character that I really like, so I'm happy that I'm able to play him. In any case, I will make it a charismatic character, so please absolutely watch it!
We haven't started filming it, but we've already been on many programmes for promotion. Those are the programmes that I've never been on so everyday is enjoyable. Fulfilling!
This year's regret is that I couldn't do much acting, so it'd be good if I can do a lot of it next year.
In other words, the Kato Shigeaki in 2014 will run at full speed, so please follow me, everyone!
I will have lots of surprises for you!
So! Thanks for taking care of me this year too! Have a great year!
-- * Perhaps he's trying to say.. What people usually say about a year is like a loop, a round. But for him, it's one year by one year and each year is different..?
Sasuga Shige-sensei. Always say different words and have different views. Haha~~
So happy for Shige-sensei because he's coming out with a third book!! 2014 March 24th!! "Burn"!! So exciting!! I'm so gonna buy it when I go to Japan in April!! XD
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello— it's Tegoshi Yuya ♪
Right now, I'm writing in the 3am Nitere.
It's going to be live broad cast from here!
My day and night lifestyle has been reversed recently though Laughs
But I do preparations for Tegomass' tour in the day, so I guess it's not reversed after all!
The average amount of sleep I get is 2 hours so I wonder if I can evolve into a human being who can continue to not sleep? Laughs
If I become like this, it would be great coz I could have gotten more things done—♪
The theme this time is gi?
Diffi. The theme being a word game is troublesome—Laughs
Can't it be something other than gi—?
Hmm—. "Gambler—!!"
Coz this is the word that I like!
It's not what everyone thinks it is, it's like doesn't everyone have times in life when you need to take a gamble sometimes in order to live on?
For example, LIVE performances, and the goods are like this too. It's also fine if we keep doing what we're doing, but it's an important gamble to give a performance that we've never done before because we don't know if it is enjoyable or not!
Our options also won't widen if we don't do that.
That's the meaning of gambler—♪
Living life normally and steadily is boring, so I wish to be stimulated from time to time—. Whether they're good or bad stuff—!
One can't grow if there's only good things happening, bad things are sometimes important and one can't develop immunity if one doesn't experience that.
So I wanna be a gambler forever.
We've started moving for the Tegomass 4th Tour officially.
The recordings are all done, the meetings for the concert are also progressing well for making it ♪
I couldn't go and see all of you last year, sorry.
We wanted to do it
But that only accumulated to make me wanna do it better!
I'm also very proud of the album! I wish to hurry up and sing in front of everyone—☆
Please look forward to it, everyone!
Let's flirt, my honeys
-- "Nitere" is NTV channel which is one of the channels that uses lots of Johnny's boys in drama and variety shows! Even in news programmes, too, like "news every." (Koyama) and "News Zero" (Sakurai)!
-- "LIVE" was written in English.
My Tego~~~ He had really heavy bags under his eyes by the end of the year.. Otsukaresama deshita!!
And he really did very well for 2013! He had more attention than Sho at 32% vs 24%!! Yay!! Omedetou!!!!!!
♥♥💝💝♥♥ Super Idol Tego!!

Sorry for being soooooooo late!! m(_ _)m

Hello.
The filming for drama will end soon.
How was everyone doing?
I will work harder!
Very nice timing, Ryo! You did it on purpose, right?! LOL!!
Yorozu Uranaidokoro Onmyouya e Youkoso is a really nice drama! Very funny, philosophical, psychological and mysterious!! XD
Ryo has SO MANY facial expressions in it! I love it!
I really like him in a role that's not a goody-two-shoes, but with a bit of bad, cunning, kindness, laziness, etc, lol!!
SUPER CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!
Can't wait to watch the 10th episode!! LOL!!
Then his movie with Kitagawa Keiko, Dakishimetai will open soon!! Omg~~ Ryo~~!!
Though it's a kissing scene, it's so sweet that I couldn't be upset with it! LOL!! XD
I think it will end its run in the cinemas long before I can make my way to Japan though.. ;_;!!

So!
Tegomass' NEW album & LIVE!
Happy!
Masterpiece! I'd love to hurry and tell you about this album that I like so much
Though the song "Tsuki no Tomodachi/Friend of Moon", which is composed by Tegoshi and has lyrics written by me, is in the regular edition!
Firstly, it's good starting from the title!
Setting the theme as youth...
Dreams!
Big dreams are better!
If the dream is big, you won't lose sight of it!
I wrote to tell you what I want to see
But I may not be able to tell you if it appears and disappears—!*
Too much of a curve ball Laughs
There are things that I wrote because I want everybody to scream during LIVE ...I'll tell you again! I'm looking forward to the LIVE—
Setting the theme as youth, showing various feelings, I think it made for a wonderful album !
It's been 2years and 3months!
Tegomasu no seishun/Tegomass' youth
Please look forward to it
So!
It's "u" this time

SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!
I'm going to Hiroshima!!!!!!!!!!
After his solo song "Remedy", Massu uses lots of English! XD
Even their "SEVEN COLORS" are pronounced perfectly!!!!! SO HAPPY!!!!! Now, NEWS is the group with the best grasp on English pronunciations. Most intelligent group with two university graduates and one undergraduate student. LOL!! XD
Anyone else going to the Tegomass 4th LIVE?! Contact me ne! I'd love to meet you! ♥♥

I had a great afternoon nap.
I don't remember the dream.
Maybe I saw it but I forgot about it.
One wonders how many things did we forget while we noticed it like this.

Oooo~ Afternoon naps are nice~~ I used to be the only member in my family who doesn't take a nap. Then it'd become really quiet in the afternoon around 3pm, lol! XD Nowadays, I keep wanting to doze off after lunch in the office! XD
The ironies of life.
I'm glad Ryo could at least take an afternoon nap~ ♥
I wonder what he saw in his dream?
Do you remember your dreams? Sometimes, I do remember but half the time, I don't. I'd try really hard to hold on to the memory but it will somehow escape my grasp.. ;_;

Look forward to more idols' profiles~~
Through the years, I’ve seen many many many Jdorama~ Here’s a page of my comments and opinions~ Liking or hating a drama, to each his own~ ^_^
I think I’ll be adding pictures for each drama later and depends on whether I can find them.. Some are really super old..
O, there might be spoilers ahead~
12 Epi | Fuji | 1991
I remember watching this when I was very young, lol.. Coz I remember the theme song, “Say Yes” by Chag and Aska~ Very nice song!! And well, since it made it all the way to my country’s TV station, it must mean the drama is good~ I remember that it was very popular and we would watch it together, lol..
9 Epi | NTV | 2008
Kamenashi Kazuya acts as Hatanaka Kousaku, a boxer who has trouble controlling his gluttony and so he has to go on a mad diet before his matches. One day, he was jogging, because of the mad diet, and he fainted in a park and was saved by a nun called Sister Angela, played by Kuroki Meisa. I like this drama, it’s so cute and funny~ Hatanaka’s persistence may be annoying to some, but isn’t it touching to have someone love another person so relentlessly?
10 Epi | Fuji | 2007
10 Epi | 1 SP | NTV | 2005
Great drama!! XD I like it~ I’m not that old but I can relate because I fear I would become like that — an OL who work and work and don’t have the chance to get married.. T_T Anego is a woman in her thirties and a nice big sister to her colleagues. She always try her best to help them solve their problems. A couple of newcomers entered her department, one of them is Kurosawa Akihiko, played by Akanishi Jin. He respected her for her kind heart and the willingness to help those around her. The thought “bubbles” that they have are pretty cute~! You can see what they really think and those are things that cannot be said out loud, haha, so fun!! XD
11 Epi | 2 SP | Fuji | 2006
Honestly, I watched this because Ryo is in it~ And so, because of watching this drama, my sisters and I “fell in love” with Ueto Aya~ She’s so cute~!! She’s a lively Flight-Attendant-wannabe called Misaki Youko, who grew up in an all-boys environment, such irony! XD One day, she bumped into Nakahara Shota, played by Nishikido Ryo, in the train station and lost her ticket in the process. So she accused him of stealing her ticket~ But Shota is a cool guy who thinks that this girl is crazy and annoying. A very funny drama~~ O, also, because of this drama, we love Aibu Saki as well~ She’s pretty and cute~!
12 Epi | 1 SP | Fuji | 1997
Watched this on TV super long ago, lol~ Sorimachi Takashi + Takeuchi Yutaka + Hirosue Ryoko = mega huge hit at the time~ Very cheerful drama, I remember~ One of the must-watch classics~
2 Epi | TV Asahi | 2007
Very nice history drama of Aizu and their samurai spirit. Made me cry lots and lots.. Yamashita Tomohisa [Sakai Shintarou/Mineji] and Tanaka Koki [Shinoda Yusuke/Gisaburo] act as descendants and also members of the young men team of warriors, Byakkotai, in 1868. What made me cry so much is their thinking.. 1. Dying honourably by stabbing yourself in the stomach, or cutting your artery at the neck, or having someone else on your side chop off your head after you died under enemy fire. 2. “To die honourably” and not “to win the war and come back alive”.. Why why why! When so many people died, I cried uncontrollably.. Especially when the boys died and their mothers.. some cried, some died, some sang.. It’s really heartbreaking.. T_T All the actors and actresses act so well, very good acting, very touching.. The drama portrayed quite realistically how cruel politics, power struggles and wars are.. You’d recognise Yakushimaru Hiroko [Aya's mother in 1LOT] as Sakai’s mother, Sakai Shige. And 2 other Johnny’s boys, Fujigaya Taisuke [Itou Matahachi] and Higashiyama Noriyuki [Matsudaira Katamori]. This is the first time I watched a drama with as many as 4 Johnny’s boys in it. XD
10 Epi | Fuji | 2008
? Epi | Fuji | 2008
Currently watching this~ 3 episodes so far and so far so good~ YamaP acts as this arrogant and confident flight-doctor-in-training called Aizawa Kousaku who wants to become a famous doctor faster than anyone. Along with him are 3 more trainees, Shiraishi Megumi [Aragaki Yui], Hiyama Mihoko [Toda Erika] and Fuikawa Kazuo [Asari Yosuke]. Hope this drama will turn out better than its preceder on the Thurs10 *coughlastfriendscough* slot!
11 Epi | 1 SP | NTV | 2006-2007
A.K.A. Tantei Gakuen Q~ You have to watch the SP before the drama, because that’s how they released it, lol.. The SP introduces you to the world of the detective school set up by the famous detective, Dan Morihiko. The school is called D.D.S., Dan Detective School. This day, a lot pf people have come to take the entrance test, they were given a crime scene photo taken by the victim and also a crime scene photo taken by the police, their job is to find out the criminal within the next few minutes and then follow the one they suspect. I’m a major fan of Kindaichi and DAQ, so I’ve already read their manga.. There are only a few differences in the SP, until they reach the part where they had to go on a certain transport.. That, was not in the manga.. Haha.. But anyway, the point is there, so, it’s ok~
I like the cast for the drama better because they “corrected” their choice, lol.. The Kazuma in the SP is.. Totally wrong, lol.. In the drama, the cast remains the same except for Kazuma, which is great!! Wakaba Katsumi really looks like Kazuma, haha~ Yamada Ryosuke is just fantastic to be Amakusa Ryuu!! OMG! He’s so cool!! Shida Mirai is cute and is naughtier than the original Megumi~ Kaname Jun as Kinta is just perfect! Haha~~ As for Q, Kamiki Ryunosuke did a nice job~! But he’s too tall, haha~
The drama has different cases from the manga, but the tricks behind them are pretty much the same, like in the first episode, the closed-room murder, how the key was in the room and not out of the room~ XD
Read the manga, watch the anime and the SP and the drama~ Please! ♥
11 Epi | Fuji | 2002
I love this drama! I remember I’d rush to switch to the channel that airs this drama~ Coz I love Sorimachi so much, haha~ XD I like him ever since GTO, of course! Anyway, I like this drama because it’s so cool~ Sorimachi Takashi acts as Tachibana, an impulsive cop~ His new partner is Oshio Manabu, whose character’s name I forgot, lol~ Anyway, this new guy is a university grad and goes by the book~ Initially, he is against Tachibana’s way of catching the bad guys~ [I'm bad at writing review and stuff] Watch this drama because it’s good, lol~
11 Epi | TBS | 2005
11 Epi | Fuji | 2005
10 Epi | TBS | 2006
More realistic than Gokusen. The teacher, Gondo Tetta [Takahashi Katsunori], doesn’t have wild dreams of having everyone graduating together, he just wants them to choose their future path carefully, properly and then to walk down it with no regrets. Tegoshi Yuya and Masuda Takahisa are the main reason why I watched this drama, lol~ End up, I love it for its more realistic plot~
10 Epi | KTV | 2005
It was almost unbearable to watch one more minute of it if not for my Ryo.. I hate Suzuki Anne!! OMG!! Seriously, why did they have to get her to be the lead girl?! No more other girls?! Luckily, there were Ryo and Aibu Saki, phew~ XD This drama is about Shinomura Etsuko [Suzuki Anne] wanting to form a girls’ rowing club in her high school. Sekino Hiroyuki [Nishikido Ryo] is her childhood friend and is called “Buu” by her. Yano Rie [Aibu Saki] along with 3 other girls joined her rowing club and they became best friends, but in the process, lots happened because of the competitions and love problems. I think one of the hot topics at that time was the changing of actor for the role of Nakata Saburo, because of Uchi Hiroki’s underage drinking incident. Taguchi Junnosuke replaced him from episode 4 onwards. At first, I thought that Junno wasn’t as cool as Uchi, because Uchi was acting the “cool guy” in epi 1 and 2, lol~ But later on, Junno grows on you, lol, he’s so cute~ XD
12 Epi | 1 SP | NTV | 2002
LOVE IT~ Nakama Yukie is soooooooooooo funny!!!!!!!!! つづく
10 Epi | 1 SP | NTV | 2005

11 Epi | NTV | 2002
Watched this on TV some years ago~ It wasn’t bad but not fantastic, it was plain~ But there were the gorgeous Kaneshiro Takeshi to ogle at and the beautiful Kuroki Hitomi to look at~ LOL~ I don’t really remember the story.. I think it’s about having a bowling competition to save the bowling centre from being sold, or something like that~
10 Epi | TBS | 2003
Kimura Takuya acts as a pilot called Shinkai Hajime and Shibasaki Kou acts as a plane technician called Ogawa Ayumi. They were like fire and water at the beginning but later, they fell in love, but how? That’s for you to watch, lol~ Quite a nice and normal drama~

Best best best drama ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I watched it soooo many years ago!! I’m a huge fan of the manga since very young! I also watched the anime in recent years~ In the drama, Sorimachi Takashi is GTO, Great Teacher Onizuka~ He always introduces himself like this: Onizuka Ekichi, 22 years old, single. Hahaha~~~ He was a bad boy in a motorcycle gang, but he dreams of becoming a teacher XD His motive was bad at first, but later, his kind heart shines through as he helps his students in times of trouble and they gradually accept him as their teacher~ This bunch of students hated teachers because there was once when they were betrayed by a teacher. Matsushima Nanako acts as the English teacher called Fuyutsuki Azusa, a young Oguri Shun acts as a weak bullied boy called Yoshikawa Noboru and Fujiki Naohito acts as GTO’s best friend since the motorcycle gang era called Saejima Ryuji~
A really really really good drama that everyone has to watch at least once in their lifetime~

Hana Yori Dango 2 花より男子2
11 Epi | 1 Movie | TBS | 2007
Hana Yori Dango!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *ROFL* Absolutely funny drama~ I’ve watched the anime when I was 11 years old or so, really love it and would rush home to watch it.. 5pm slot, I think, channel 8, in mandarin dub, lol~ Then came the Taiwanese idol drama version, which we didn’t like.. Really hate the F4 in that version, they just.. suck, bad. I think it’s because they all had long hair and are ugly and behave like girls, URGH, disgusting!! I still hate them very much, hahaha!!
ANYWAY, this is about the much much x10000 better Japanese live-action drama~ Matsumoto Jun acts as Doumyoji Tsukasa, the super spoilt brat with super strength and ego, lol~ Even though MatsuJun is not as tall as Doumyoji, his “aura” is tall~ It makes me feel that he really is suitable for acting out this role~ Makino Tsukushi was played by Inoue Mao, a very cute girl~ Makino’s family is super poor but she is attending this super rich school that all other rich kids are attending. Doumyoji Tsukasa has 1 older sister called Tsubaki, played by the beautiful Matsushima Nanako, and 3 other good buddies and they are Hanazawa Rui [Oguri Shun], Nishikado Soujiro [Matsuda Shota] and Mimasaka Akira [Abe Tsuyoshi]~ Rumour has it that MatsuJun refused to accept the role of Doumyoji if they don’t put Oguri in the show as well~ They are very good friends~ And yay for this action because HanaDan pushed their careers sky high!! The drama was so immensely popular! Now, Oguri Shun is one of the hottest male actor in Japan!
The drama has lotsa changes but the original author approved the changes~ The whole drama is grand and elegant in terms of the places, the clothes and the food and events, etc~ Very nice to watch! I think the only bad point is that the soundtrack sounds too alike to Harry Potter.. XD
On 28 June 2008, Hana Yori Dango F was opened in Japan cinemas~ It’s the finale to the drama and it’s about the wedding~ I saw the trailer and it looks so good! They went to Hong Kong and Las Vegas to shoot the movie!! I wanna watch it!!!!!!!

After being entertained by the Taiwanese idol drama version, we were even more entertained by the Japanese live-action version which is 100 times more exaggerated than the former! Oguri Shun acts as Sano Izumi, an injured ex-high jumper high schooler. Horikita Maki acts as Ashiya Mizuki, a Japanese girl living in America who is in love with Sano and daringly impost as a boy to get transferred into the same all-boys school as Sano. She’s really cute as a tomboy!! Ikuta Toma acts as Nakatsu Shuuichi, the sporty and crazy friend of Sano. This was the first time I saw Toma and instantly fell in love! HAHA I’m such a carrot~ XD Watch this drama is you want to see lots of good-looking guys~! Coz this school only admits good-looking boys!! Notable eye candies are Sano and Nakatsu, Nanba Minami [Mizushima Hiro], the 2nd Dorm Leader, Tennoji Megumi [Ishigaki Yuma], the 1st Dorm Leader, Kayashima Taiki [Yamamoto Yusuke], the ghost detector and Kagurazaka Makoto [Shirota Yu], Sano’s rival~

Hitotsu Yane no Shita 2 ひとつ屋根の下2
12 Epi | Fuji | 1997
A.K.A. Under One Roof. We love this drama! I remember watching it on tv very very long ago~ It was in mandarin dub.. So I only remember the names in chinese, like 小哥,小雪,大哥。。It’s a touching drama about a family of siblings without parents.. There were big brother, second brother, youngest brother, young sister and 小雪~ I forgot what’s 小雪 relationship to them and why she’s living together with them.. Eguchi Yosuke acts as the big brother, I remember he had long hair and always wears a yellow cap, back facing front, lol~ It’s a really popular drama at that time, coz almost everyone watched it~ You should too~ ^_~

A funny, but plain drama~ I watched the anime before and I quite like it, because of the art~ As for the drama, 1. I watched the anime before, so, naturally, I’d wanna watch the live-action as well, 2. there’s Toma. XD Ikuta Toma acts as Takemoto Yuuta, a guy who doesn’t have any idea what he wanna do in the future and guts. Narumi Riko acts as Hanamoto Hagumi, a very shy and short 19-year-old girl from the countryside who is very good at painting. Mukai Osamu acts as Mayama Takumi, a year senior to Takemoto-kun in architecture who is working for Harada Design. Harada Natsuki acts as Yamada Ayumi, daughter of the owner of a shop in the neighbourhood who is well-loved there for her beauty, guts and strength~ She’s good in pottery and bitterly in love with Mayama.. who is in love with Harada Design’s owner.. The only disappointment in the cast is Narimiya Hiroki who acts as Morita Shinobu. Why I don’t like him, because he is Nobu in NANA movies. XD And he doesn’t suit Morita-san, this character. T_T Morita-san is a crazy guy who is obsessed with anything cute but will never ever say “I like you” and stuff like that! And the whole “Does Morita like Hagu, or not?” was not present in the drama for the audience to guess [like in the anime].. It was just a straight-forward love triangle of Take-Hagu-Morita……………. T_T The drama also scored really low on viewership numbers.. Sad..

No one and I say NO ONE SHOULD MISS THIS DRAMA. Seriously, you can skip all other drama and just watch this. This is based on the true story of Kitou Aya, who was a young sufferer of a cruel incurable disease called “Spinocerebellar Degeneration” where the smaller brain will shrink over time. It controls your muscles, so as it shrinks, you can’t control your muscles and you know how muscles is super important in how your body works, don’t you? Gradually, Ikeuchi Aya [Sawajiri Erika][they changed the family name] will lose the power to control her muscles as she wishes and that means that there will come a day when she cannot walk and talk, etc, anymore.. T_T She is smart and kind and good at basketball and like any other girls, yearns to fall in love. She has a crush on her senior [Matsuyama Kenichi acts as Kawamoto Yuji] in basketball club since junior high school and when she passed the entrance test to go into the same high school as him, she was super happy. Kitou Aya’s mum asked the production team to add a perfect boyfriend for Aya because it was her wish to fall in love, so they added a character called Asou Haruto [Nishikido Ryo]. This was the first time I saw Ryo, but it didn’t leave any impression on me at all. Surprisingly. XD Coz throughout the whole drama, I only looked at Erika, she’s too beautiful~ Haha XD Narumi Riko acts as her younger sister, Ikeuchi Ako~ This was also the first time I saw her and I thought she will definitely make it in the entertainment scene~
I really cried a lot since episode 5.. even after the whole drama ended, I was still crying on my bed.. T_T Now thinking back to some classic dialogues, I’m crying again.. T_T Like, “Will I be able to get married?”, “Why did the illness choose me?”……….. T_T
4 Epi | Fuji | 2008
Seriously, I watched this because Ryo is guest-starring in it. I don’t even like Uchi. -_-” LOL~ Well, they are brothers in the drama, Kamiya Kenichi [Nishikido Ryo] is a very talented and good soccer player and his younger brother, Kamiya Shinji [Uchi Hiroki] is a fast runner. Ichinose Ren [Hasegawa Jun] is Shinji’s best friend who is faster in running than him. This drama is about the days of Shinji and his friends in the track and field club in their high school. This drama is also the come-back drama of Uchi since the underage drinking incident, so Ryo went to help out since they’re best friends~

A really really really good drama I watched on TV very very very long ago~ It’s very unique because no other drama is like this. Even till now. The impact it had on me was so great that I remember it even till now~ When I finally found out the title [I didn't know the title when I was young XD], I was overjoyed! XD I wanna watch it again, but I can’t find it in the video shops.. T_T Help!!
Anyway, Domoto Tsuyoshi acts as a college senior who died. But he woke up to his alarm clock and when he looked at his calender on the wall, he was shocked, plus he was dragged to high school by his childhood female friend. I remember what happened in the story but I only remember Tsuyoshi’s face.. DramaWiki listed Nakama Yukie, but really, no impression~ The whole drama has the mystery air of “why is this happening?”, I love it~ The end of the drama was very very touching~
I just know that I wanna watch this drama again.. T_T

Kindaichi Shonen no Jikenbo 2 金田一少年の事件簿2
10 Epi | 1 SP | NTV | 1996
Kindaichi!!!!!!!!!!! Super fan of the manga!! Watched this very long ago on TV~ Domoto Tsuyoshi acts as Kindaichi Hajime, the grandson of famous detective Kindaichi Kosuke. He has an IQ of 180 but he is lousy in school exams. His childhood friend is Nanase Miyuki [Tomosaka Rie] who is a girl good in school work and the one who always help him and look after him. I don’t remember the drama in details, but it’s a nice drama because Domoto’s acting is good and resembles the Kindaichi I have in mind~ ^_^
There was a season 3 but I don’t remember watching it.. But my sisters do.. -_-” Er.. How come?! Hahaha~~ Anyway, in season 3, MatsuJun was the Kindaichi.. Hmm.. Weird..
1 Epi | NTV | 2005
If MatsuJun as Kindaichi is weird, this SP is weirder. Coz Kamenashi Kazuya is the Kindaichi this time round. And this SP is weird coz they shoot it as if this is the first case Kindaichi ever encountered. So it’s a start-from-the-beginning kind of SP.. which was in 2005………….. EH?! -_-” What the hell were they thinking?! Anyway, while Kame’s acting is good, audience already have Domoto/MatsuJun as Kindaichi in their heads, so it takes some time to get used to.. Ueno Juri acts as Nanase Miyuki~ Needs some time getting used to too, for me, coz I have the Domoto-Rie pairing imprinted in my head since so many years ago~ LOL~
Anyway, this case is about a vampire legend in the ruins of a village. I already read it before I watched this so I knew the tricks and who did it already, lol~ So, overall, they followed the manga quite closely, yay~ ^_^
11 Epi | 1 Movie | TBS | 2006
One of the best new drama~! All those drama that I said are good are quite old right? This one is quite new in contrast~! XD In this drama, Yamashita Tomohisa acts as Kurosaki, no given name was known to the audience. Kurosaki is a young guy who lost his family when he was 15 years old. In order to take revenge, he became Kurosagi, a black swindler, who works for an old guy who owns a restaurant. In this world, there are 3 types of swindlers, 1. Shirosagi, white swindlers who swindle your money using business, 2. Akasagi, red swindlers who swindle your money by playing with your feelings and 3. Kurosagi, the swindler who eats Shirosagi and Akasagi. Kurosaki owns a small building of small apartments for rent quite out of the way of the city, one day, a new tenant arrived, she is called Yoshikawa Tsurara [Horikita Maki], a university student studying law, trying to be a public prosecutor. Because of Yoshikawa, Kurosaki’s life begins to change.
I really like this drama~ It’s really fun to watch how people fall into his traps~! XD YamaP improved in his acting in this drama as he has to change his clothes, way of talking, behaviour in every episode while maintaining the same identity.
The movie sequel was opened in Japan cinemas on 8 March 2008, 5 days after my birthday.. I wanna watch it!! But my country usually DON’T bring in such good films.. T_T
11 Epi | Fuji | 2005
I only watched this in bits and pieces on TV.. It has Matsushima Nanako, Eguchi Yosuke and Oguri Shun~ This is a medical-human relationships drama~
11 Epi | 1 SP | Fuji | 2008
The drama which fell due to the too-heavy expectations from everyone. It started out really good, the first few episodes. Before it even started, everyone was having high hopes because of the themes of this drama. Lesbian, Domestic Violence, Sex Phobia, Loneliness and Gender Identity.. Sounds so cool, right?! The higher the expectations, the bigger the disappointment and the harder the fall. We, Ryo-fans, were waiting anxiously for the drama to start, even though our Ryo is acting as a despicable DV guy called Oikawa Sousuke. He works in the child welfare division, so on the outside he is very kind, but when he gets angry at/suspicious of his girlfriend, Aida Michiru [Nagasawa Masami], he hits and kicks her. Her actions always suggests that she is hiding something, so it’s hard to blame as well. That’s my [and a lot others'] opinion. Of course, hitting people is not right at all. In love with the weak Michiru is a boyish girl called Kishimoto Ruka [Ueno Juri] who is a pro motocross racer. Ueno’s short hair is really nice and looks very good on her! Better than her Nodame hair, haha! And in love with the boyish Ruka is a make-up artist called Mizushima Takeru [Eita] who is also a bartender and a sufferer of Sex Phobia. Living together in a share house with Ruka is a flight attendant called Takigawa Eri [Mizukawa Asami] who is constantly lonely. And in love with this woman is a weak guy called Ogura Tomohiko [Yamazaki Shigenori] who works in the airlines as well. Michiru’s problem is that she came from a broken family, her mother is a drunkard and her father is a drunkard who would hit her mother, so her mother took her and ran away to another place when she was 18. Now, she’s working in a salon as an assistant but she’s constantly bullied by her senior called Hiratsuka Reina [Nishihara Aki] who is also a victim.
The first few episodes were really good, they kept making us wanna watch the next episode. But later, like 7, or 8 onwards.. !@#!@#@$#%$%$~~ LOL.. It’s ridiculous to change the story for the sake of getting high viewership ratings!! They should have let Sousuke died! Like who wouldn’t when being hit like that?! He’s not superman! It was a really great chance to let the DV guy rest in peace, really, but no, the storywriter didn’t let him off and want him to continue to torture Michiru, for the sake of the viewership ratings. And what’s more, he in his limping state, can hit people somemore! OMG.. Then at end of the 10th episode, they let him die like that, making him like such a coward. ARGH!!
The ending was disappointing but it can never be as diappointing as the so-called SP, broadcasted just the following week of the last episode -_-”
Because of the high anticipation and expectations, I was really really x100 disappointed, really sad.. T_T
The theme song and soundtrack was great~! So, everytime Sousuke’s theme song came on before he does on the screen, it became a horror movie. -_-” LOL~ Utada Hikaru’s Prisoner of Love was written after understanding the story, so by that, it means that the focus of the drama should be the love between Ruka and Michiru right? But yeah, see how it went and crashed itself. People call it a train wreck of a drama.
The whole drama contains of characters with serious problems, it’s as if the whole society is sick.. -_-” To read the entire 1st episode, click here~

I watched the first episode and I’m gonna try watching the 2nd episode.. Just to see what’s the point of it, besides my liking for Koki, lol..
Tanaka Koki acts as a pathetic guy named Tanaka Ichirou. He’s not good in school but good in bragging. He fails at picking up girls as well. And also, he has no friends at all, nobody listens to what he says.. The thought bubble in my head says, “So poor thing.. T_T” while watching.. Anyway, it’s great that Koki finally has the chance at being the lead actor, yay! I hope my Ryo can have a lead role soon too! XD I digress~ So who’s the female lead? Kuriyama Chiaki [Meguro Terumi]. I vaguely remember seeing her in Battle Royale 1 as the girl with the hardest heart, lol.. I think that’s her~ つづく
