Sword-wielding hotties, baby!

Guuuuuh, what am I doing getting a 40 episode series, considering how many I already have.

And yet, I just got myself a copy of Yoshitsune, a Japanese drama about an ill-fated (weren't they all) general/nobleman/fighter/hottie, who was a real person (though am not sure about whether the sex appeal is historical :D ( Read more... )

*eyes her copy like the beautiful shiny it is*

*scoots it up to being next after Meteor Garden*

*apologizes to My Girl*

It also has Oguri Shun and Abe Hiroshi(between those three, just throw in Fujiki Naohito and Yamapi and I'm in jdrama guy heaven) though I don't know how big their roles are.

I spent the whole vid thinking Monsairaku from Otogi Zoshi suddenly went live action...they move almost exactly alike and dress similarly(what with, you know, Otogi Zoshi being in the heian era...err...yeah...this comment is the perfect example of what hot guys with swords do to my brain...)

What's Otogi Zoshi? But yeah, I loved the fight...very beautiful.

Of course, these clips have done nothing to dispel my thing for having Takki as Tamahome if they ever made (yeah right) live action Fushigi Yuugi. I sort of have to think about who I'd have for a lot of the cast, but Takki as Tamahome and Jun as Tasuki sort of make themselves immediately known :)

Well, I feel bad for My Girl, but (though I haven't watched it yet so I guess I suppose the execution might suffer, no idea), My Girl does not have guys with swords :D And by guys, I mean Takki.

Oguri Shun and Abe Hiroshi(between those three, just throw in Fujiki Naohito and Yamapi and I'm in jdrama guy heaven)

LOL. I've realized all four of the jdrama guys I like have done period stuff: Takki, Yamapi, KimuTaku and Takeshi Kaneshiro :D

Judging by the MV and Musashi(both it and Yoshitsune are annual taiga dramas, which are by the same people-roughly-and a year long) I'm expectiung good execution.
