Fuji TV got nice ideas... I don't really know if this was a new thing or if has been done before but the mix of that Big Brother/workshop feeling worked for me and without realizing it, I saw most of the thing.

It was a plus watching Sho in something different from the standard tvshow/interview thing. As the format of the show was so different and looked like a bunch of friends/relatives sharing lunch and chats, he was supposedly to be more at ease, but something tells me he was controllinng himself to be perfect: not too goofy, or stiff or known-it-all. He managed to do that because he was lovely and correct: funny at some points, trying to promote his drama properly, trying to be a nice guest to Nakai's home...

I'd have hit Nakai when right after opening the door to them, the first thing he said was: 'Oh, Arashi! Arashi of dream...' and Sho, poor thing, didn't even think, it just got of his mouth: 'Arashi FOR dream desu!' he said! And Nakai apologized!

Another cute moment was when they entered and the girls from Karina's new drama are already in the living room and Nakai asks Sho what it is that they are bringing and Sho explains that they are some tea cookies from an special place or something and the girls instantly exclaimed something in the likes of 'sugoi!' and Sho turns to them, smiling and said animatedly 'konnichiwa!' A bit before that, there was also a News Zero joke between Sho's male co-star and Nakai... I was surprised... boys you are at FTV lol!

I felt a bit bad for Sho sometimes, because he had to fight a bit with Nakai to finally share the cookies and also when trying to promote the drama properly. Btw, the trailer makes want to watch this drama so badly!!! I'm sure I'm gonna love Sho in it. That character! I think he really nails it... I want to watch episode one right now!

Another funny moment was when Nakai froze the screen right in the moment where Sho had that kind of dangerous look in his face with a 'don't mess with me' eyes, and the girls explained 'kakkoi!' or similar... at the end of the 'presentation' Sho thanked everybody several times, so cute!



He was so cute serving things and passing things to the rest of guests... seriously...

I've just finished Orthros no Inu, starring Ryo Nishikido, Takizawa Hideaki and Sasaki Kuranosuke. Love the three of them, btw. It's the first thing I watch with Takizawa Hideaki and I'm planning to watch more... and Sasaki's part here means a real change for me, so I was surprised.

I was tempted to watch this drama some time ago but I thought Ryo was the bad guy and I didn't feel like watching him play the baddie... but I read a different synopsis from the one in drama-wiki and I realized I was mistaken (although here bad and good are kind of mixed).

I'm impressed because I love it! It got me interested enough to watch it in two days (first time ever I have watched a drama online)

It's not one of those 'I love every single minute of it' kind of drama. It's one of those 'the plot and the characters make me feel the need to know what happens next' kind of drama.

Love the music (it happens a lot lately).

Briefly: One man has the power to cure and the other the power to kill. The one who can cure is a man who had an awful past that made him what he is now. The one who can kill is a caring loving teacher with a family and pupils that love him. Powerful people want to use them and the rest of people face the consequences of that secret play.

I'd post pics and all but I just finished watching and it's kind of late here (3 a.m.)
