It really perfectly sums up just how big a star Kimura-san is. It also inspired me to write about the phenomenon that he is, and the achievements that he has gained which made his name a household name in Japan. It is too much information for ( Read more... )

I love this fanmade video so much. The background music makes this "Kimutaku Phenomenon" portrayed in the video feel even more grand and powerful.

The first chart represents sth. like a popular name for a new born baby in 1995, right? So, the name "Takuya" moved from no.962 in 1972 to no.9 in 1995. That's really amazing.

Looking forward to all the phenomenon you're going to write about. =D

Totally agree~ ♥ Her selection of music just makes it all feel like a grand legend.

Got it right. It even adds that the characters more commonly used for the name "Takuya" was this "拓也" but during Captain's time, the character that people used more was "拓哉", which is the exact same character in Captain's name.

LOL! It's going to be a wild adventure~ xDDD Hope you'll enjoy it. ♥

Thanks for the comment~ ♥

IKR? It's amazing all his achievements, yet he still always tries to be better. I totally agree with you. That is something I truly admire and love in him: his constant desire to challenge is own limits and give his very best. <333

Thank you for leaving a comment, and I hope you'll enjoy the rest of the project! xDDDD

And, LOL! *high fives* There's a reason why, when watching Nankyoku Tairiku, everyone in real life thought I had gone through a terrible break-up :P Cannot resist Captain's tears~ xDDDDD
