Kurosagi is the best thing since sliced bread. Because sliced bread doesn't have Yamapi.

OK, it's official.

Dangermousie/Kurosagi=OTP.

I love it!

Kurosagi is a jdorama that follows a 'Black Swindler,' a swindler who swindles other swindlers as his livelihood. People on my flist kept raving about it and I can see why

I am definitely going to check out NwP now because Yamapi? Guuuuuh.

And I've watched ep 2 (more on which later) and yes, Tsurara is evolving. Tsurara is also pretty mellowed out. I think she has never had to face the shady sides of the world before so it was safe for her to assume any illegal activity=evil. But now she is face to face with Yamapi's character, it's going to give her shades of grey.

Kurosagi desperately needs to care about someone but he won't let himself and life keeps reaffirming his isolation (see the heartbreaking stuff with former friend in ep 2) so it's really good for him to have Tsurara. It hasn't even anything to do with romantic stuff. He needs someone, even if only (for now) as a friend.

Oh yes, I am about to do a write-up on ep 2, but that really was the ep that completed my enslavement to this drama. It's just such a stark contrast between what his life is and what he wants no matter how much he denies it: companionship and normalcy.

I really must watch Nobuta now. And anything else Yamapi was in, too.

think he's having problems accepting that and he's very wary of her, understandably, because of what else has happened in his life

Oh yes. I love the scene where he lets his guard down just the tiniest bit, when she asks him about his parents and it's not even that he answers her but it's probably the first time anyone really asked, anyone he felt any connection with, that is, and that little thing is enough to put all his walls up. Ouch. He just might be the most damaged dorama hero out there, and that's rather impressive.
