So I'll mention the ones I remember right now (it's past 4 a.m. here in tropical zones ) and you people do the same if ever thought about that...
And it's not only about beauty but also (actually should be "mainly for") good acting!
And maybe he/she already got a leading role but I'm the one who never watched the drama!
1: Asami Reina!
Yes, that's the first one for sure. Maybe I seriously started urging to see some specific actor/actress on j-dramas because of her! I watched Water Boys II and went crazy for her! So beautiful and such a good acting! Finished, I went to "Ame to Yume no ato ni" and there she was again! It was anguishing to see her just for a few moments right after she being always present and decisive in WBII! Ans it was also nice to notice the same beautiful actress in a more grown up look, and much more appealing and yet the same good acting! Then I moved to Sapuri and... there again! God, it's destiny! We should meet someday, I thought
In Sapuri she improved a lot in her acting skills and made me really want to see her in a leading role...
2: Abe Sadayo
Please tell me... has he done any leading ever? Because I remember watching so many dramas with him on it but never as a leading! The closest to it... maybe in Tiger & Dragon.
Well, the thing is... in "Iryu - Team Medical Dragon" he is incredible!!! I was kind of surprised. I mean... that old story about being able to do such different roles like the one in "Tiger & Dragon" or "Kisarazu Cat's eyes" and then what he did on Iryu! God, in the scene where
I was moved! And I just kept in my mind that old image of him wearing a Black Power wig in "Tiger & Dragon"... I kept myself saying: hey, is he really the same guy?
3: Nakao Akiyoshi
C'mon... just visiting the jdorama.com artist section I was randomly navigating on him and I went on and on his past roles and remembering I had seen them all! He was that kido on Good Luck! That lil bro of Kimura Takuya! He was nice on H2, liked a lot in Brother Beat and simply the best in Water Boys II! I mean... this guy is always smiling! Any image other than a smiling face is quite impossible to come to my mind when it's about him. I think he really should be on a leading role...
Hey, that also made me think about the disappointing ones... mainly for seeming too immature in acting for a lead role... have you got any? Tell it!
To me... now I can remember "Moriyama Mirai" on "kiken na aneki". Gosh... it just didn't... work somehow.
Well, I'll be editing after rechecking it later... at least after a good sleeping!
Cya!
