Now, more than 4 years later, there's a live action drama version of Ouran High School Host Club. At first, I was NOT amused at all. Reason: I disliked the cast. My expectations were very high, and so (of course) I felt disappointed....at first!

I mean... Tamaki isn't even blonde...and has the worst hairstyle ever! xD And they were all...so not dreamy enough at first sight. But honestly... how similar can a real human being be to a anime character? Fact is, even though the live action is not as good and as funny the anime, the actors do a good job and the casting decisions weren't bad after all. Yamamoto Yusuke is a really good Tamaki (besides the hairstyle...he just has that dramatic Tamaki-feeling :D) And I think Daito Shunsuke
makes a really good Kyoya!
Another thing I started to be interested in in 2007 was Jpop. Yes, it may seem unbelievable now because I talk about Kpop a lot but... I actually used to be into Johnny's quite a bit! (dun dun dun). The song that got me interested was NewS' "weeek"( sorry I can't find it on youtube). It was a catchy fun song and all the member looked kind of cute in the pv. Even though I soon started to prefer Arashi and Kanjani8 over NewS, I was a little sad when I heard that Yamashita Tomohisa and Nishikido Ryo (I dare say they're the most popular members) decided to leave the group.

Even though I'm not much of a Johnny fan anymore, I'm not ashamed of liking them before it the thought that the group might fall apart with just 4 members (of originally 9 I think) left pains me a little. They gave me some good laughs and kyas, especially with their tour movies. I used to be a big Yamapi fan... but I think this decision he made is completly Akanishi Jin-like. And let me say one thing: I'm not a Akanishi Jin fan. At least Ryo stays with Kanjani. *rant rant*
Hehe I'm thinking a lot about those 2007 interests of mine these days.... ^^
And since I'm already doing the nerdtalk: I started reading Kuragehime. It's the BESCHT!
And Matsuyama Kenichi has secured his place as my number one favourite Japanese actor forever now that I've seen the movie "Detroit Metal City". It's awesome. If you don't believe it...go and watch it :D

Er hat auch den intelligenten aber sehr armen Taro in dem Comedy Dorama "Yamada Taro no Monogatari" gespielt.
Außerdem ist er in einer von Japans erfolgreichsten Boygroups (Arashi)(Anmerkung: In Japan gibt es viele erfolgreiche Boygroups. Außerdem werden sie auch von Menschen die älter sind als 13 gehört und vor allem befangirlt) und bringt mit seinen Kollegen Menge Popsongs mit oft sehr kitschigen Videos raus.Und wenn er dann noch zwischendrin Zeit hat...
...macht er komische Sachen in komischen TV-Shows.
Aber: Keine Glitzeroutfits, keine kitschigen Songs, keine komischen Tanzbewegungen. Ninomiya Kazunari spielt die Rolle des einfachen Soldaten Saigo ziemlich gut. Also: Nino kann auch anders!
