This. I have this burned off somewhere, unwatched. WHY DO YOU ALWAYS PIMP THE AWESOME STUFF WHEN I'M SUPPOSED TO BE WORKING ON STUFF? *BITES KNUCKLES AND SEETHES* Why does Yonekura have to be so damn awesome? And, and, CHRIST SHIROTA, WHY SO FUCKING HOT? *apparently looking a gift horse directly in the mouth*

If they're trying to turn us off a life of crime, Shirota Yuu lounging around and licking things isn't going to cut it. He was so... bugfuck. I'm ashamed to admit it was delicious.

Obviously he needs to stop hogging all the sexy.

Also, I meant to ask -- who is that in the second screencap? I'm thinking either Kyo Nobuo or Araki Hirofumi, and of course when I look up the cast list, they're both in it.

Holy crap, good eye. Kyo Nobuo. He plays a crazed hostage taker. XD I watched the drama unfold like, "NOOO DORM LEADER!"

This? This is what I'm good at. Possibly the only thing I'm good at. Hell, I found Miura Ryosuke in an episode of 1 Pound no Fukuin, in a role so tiny that Dwiki, Japanese Wikipedia, and even his official site had no mention of. (It was definitely him, though. I know Matthew Perrier when I see him!)

Wasn't Kyo Nobuo an asshole in an episode of Bara no Nai Hanaya? Or am I thinking of Zettai Kareshi? He randomly turns up in a lot of stuff, anyway.

Heh, I know the feeling. I once spent twenty minutes searching a dark classroom frame-by-frame because I knew I'd spotted Matsukawa Naruki, even though the wiki couldn't confirm it. Two weeks later his name was finally added to the cast, so victory was... twenty minutes of my life I'll never get back?

I know he was the asshole senpai in ZK. Was he in Bara too?

Those victories are so great, though! They're made of 'I told you so'. What sucks is when you think you know who that random person in the background is, but you have absolutely no way to confirm it. Like the opening narration for Sh15uya. It's Tsuda Kenjirou! Uh, I think! I mean, I'm pretty sure! Except I have no way to confirm it. (Repeat until insane.)

He was in an early episode. I think he was a doctor, or something? He was definitely in it, though, 'cause I remember thinking when Tamayama Tetsuji showed up, "Okay, now we have half of Trapnest. Who's next? Mizutani Momosuke? Yuna Ito?"

He was Ren in the second movie. I think Matsuda Ryuhei was a better Ren, but he was still pretty good. Then again I spent the whole movie waiting for more scenes with HONGO KANATAAAAAAAAA a.k.a. the reason I have a shotacon. v.v

Ew, the second movie. FORGET I ASKED. *bitterbitter*

Hey, the second movie wasn't complete crap. At least they cut out the Reira/Shin romantic subplot. If they'd left it in, I probably would've exploded from rage. (I have nothing against Yuna Ito, but her portrayal of Reira just made me want to murder puppies.)

Between the cast changes and the Hachi/Takumi (which I could not stand in the manga), I think I'll be staying faaar, far away.

TAKUMIIIIIIIIII. Oh my god I wanted to punch him IN THE FUCKING FAAAAAAAAACE.

WITH A CAR.

But what can you expect from a character who (in animated form) shares a voice with FREAKIN' SEPHIROTH? (Never trust a character voiced by Morikawa Toshiyuki. He's not always evil, but better safe than sorry.)

Speaking of the anime... Proving everything is connected by way of seiyuu is pretty much my life's mission. That said, Ren shares a voice with Tenma. (And Oshitari Yuushi, and Sasagawa Ryohei. Uh, one of these things is not like the other...)

I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS SO DAMN DIFFICULT ABOUT MAKING THEM LESBIANS. "Oh no, we share beds and kisses and an emotional connection so deep it can be felt through SYMBOLIC STRAWBERRY CUPS, but we can't be gay. Quick, put a penis in me!" I bet Asano Taeko creamed herself when she got script rights. The teasing was right up her fucking alley.

I even would've been fine if Hachi ended up with Nobu, really. (Lesbian girl with a gay guy; why not?) But the anime. THE ANIMEEEEEEEE. They cast my two favourite seiyuu as my two favourite character and just PILE ON THE ANGST. ANGST ANGST ANGST, NO, NEEDS MORE ANGST, NO HAPPY ENDING FOR YOU AHAHAHAHA! AUUUUUUUUGH. No wonder I never got around to finishing the anime. IT DESTROYED MY SOUL.

If she couldn't embrace her inner lesbian, at least Nobu would've been susceptible to a threesome.

But TAKUMI?

Of all the guys you could POSSIBLY CHOOSE -- *TAKUMI*?!
