I'm really surprised that after looking through all the pages I didn't see one thread for him (if I missed it I apologize). I know i'm not the only fan he has here...I mean after all, he is Ito Hideaki!

finally someone mentioned Yasha !!!dancing_moo wrote:Ooo pictures! I liked him a lot in Yasha. =D
didn't know he was that busy as an actor that's for sure a long drama list..Only watched Yasha and now First Kiss with him. two pretty diffrent parts.. but he showed his comedian side in Yasha as the one brother a bit before, ne? ^-^ Didn't like his look as the one brother in Yasha but it did fit perfect then.. and now in First Kiss.. hilarious
If there's one show or shows people will remember Ito Hideaki by, it has to be Umizaru. I imagine his portrayal of Senzaki did wonders for Japan Coast Guard recruitment. There's also the wacky Kudo Kankuro comedy in 2003 Boku no Mahoutsukai.
Some months ago I saw him in an interview together with Hasegawa Kyoko for Kodoku no Kake, and when the announcer was trying to help them drum up buzz for that drama - "the audience will like it, blah blah blah" - and he said that on the contrary they may fall asleep. And what do you know, he was right. (I watched only two episodes, but I don't believe it became any better.) Therefore my impression of him is a guy who says it as it is. Of course, I could be wrong, since that was just a moment.

^ I agree with you there. So far I think his most high profile role has definetly been the Umizaru series, so it only makes sense that people would remember him as Senzaki Daisuke and plus, the story is one that kind of appeals to all types of people unlike some others he's done like Kodoku no Kake or Blister.
Yeah, I watched all of Kodoku no Kake and it didn't get much better until the last couple episodes. I'm surprised he would say that but I like that honest quality in him. He probably knew no matter what he said people weren't gonna respond really well to that show, i bet he was kicking himself after he signed on to star in that. But at least he's got a lot of credibility to his name, so he'll be fine.

always been lurking around but never find the urge to register until saw Laurenski's call in FK's thread.
liked him after watchin his performance in Yasha and Ai o kudasai~ since the, wouldn't miss out anything that he starr in....
love to meet others who like him~~ will come back and check more often.

Glad you decided to join tsubasa! It's nice to see another hardcore Hideaki fan here. I've made so many Hideaki threads in other forums and pretty much all of them were empty so I'm happy to hear you'll stick around!
Same here, I first saw him in Yasha. Fell in love and then had to see every drama he's been in before that and after, but sadly not many come with subtitles and some are really hard to find, but eventually I wanna own or at least see all of his works.

Lauren, thx for the welcoming... hehehe
Yasha sure held a special place in the heart of Hide's fans...
it was really well-made dorama, from story, cast, music to visuals. really breathtaking for those who love a little sci-fi dark hero taste. ..... still bring tears in my eyes when I listen to Sting's Desert Rose sometimes...
I studied a bit of Jap. in school so usually I'll even try watchin non-sub works.. so I guess everyone here only watches Eng. subs?

^ I'm surprised you both cried during Yasha. I mean, it was sad but I was nowhere near crying. Maybe that's because I didn't get the ending the first time i watched it . (No worries though, I got it once I re-watched the last episode)
Yasha was the first one I watched but it wasn't my favorite. Sure I loved it because it introduced me to him and he was in every scene as not only one but two hot characters but I'm not really into the whole sci-fi and the shounen ai/yaoi thing is a big turn off for me. As a straight girl, I want my guys to be straight and I don't know why but I seem to be the only one who thinks that way.
The Umizaru series is possibly my favorite thing he's done or at least stands out the most because I'm a real sucker for those type of stories. Sure, they're cliche and you know how it's going to end right from the beginning but there still entertaining and they're still something great about seeing them get through the hardships and have a happy ending. (even though his buddies died, so I guess not too happy in this case...)
Well, I did study a little Japanese but I mainly can just read it rather than understand it. I do watch RAWS though, mainly because I'm impatient but I would definetly prefer english subs

don't get me wrong i never treated this as a shounen ai drama but as a sci-fi drama.... I didn't find the first four episodes interesting until Rin starts showing his real nature...
Umizaru is not a bad series but I got to the point where I really wish Hideaki can play a different role in a new drama/movie. It was really long time for me~~~ for 2 yrs or so, I can only see Senzaki.
I wouldn't say Yasha is my favourite drama by him... it just can't be replace by others. There are always a new favourable one (except Kodoku no Kake... the story was really really really badly written and directed) comes when he starts a new drama/movie. My favourite at the moment of course goes to Kazu-ni from First Kiss...
Yeah I understand what you're saying, it could get tiresome to just see the same storyline, but I really liked his character and that type of story. And you gotta admit, when he was in any of the 3 Umizaru's he was looking real good, I mean he always looks good but he was all tan and had his shirt off... or was in the shower in that series (ok getting a little fangirly here) but yeah can't help it if I find that one more visually satisfying
but he was in Kono mune Ippai no Ai Wo & Kunitori Monogatari during the umizaru time period, so there's something.
For me I go in spurts of which I really wanna watch, like one week it's Blister and then Shiroi Kyoto and then it's Bengoshi No Kuzu or Love Song and so on. You know as bad as Kodoku no Kake was, I still find myself watching it and I even bought the dvds, the script and direction was bad, but there's just something about Hideaki's portrayal of his character that just makes up for all of it in a way.
First Kiss is really cute, I don't think it's the best drama this season or deserved the time slot it's in, but it's still good. Not being biased here (or at least trying) but I think Kazu & the roomates really make the show, the rest of the storyline with Mio and the doctor really don't do anything for me, but those guys keep me interested.

I have no complaints on Umizaru's storyline, it's just that I want to see him play a wider range of characters. His hardwork made towards the series is no doubt the best thing abt it...heheee.
I don't think I would ever finish watching Kodoku w/o Hideaki in it... a bit of shame that Chigusa's character didn't get the focus of the drama... instead it got shifted and based on Momoko mainly, which wasn't what they originally promote at the start of the drama.
Agree the story of First Kiss isn't really exciting~ plot developing really really slo... but the threesome BAKAs are da best!!! I love watching Kazu & Mio too~ they looked just like real bro-sis~

I don't fangirl Ito Hideaki as much as I would like to......but he did an amazing job with his portrayal as twins in "Yasha".
Sci-fi shounen manga like "Yasha" aren't really my thing, so I was really surprised when I was hooked onto the drama after the first episode.
I see a great listing of his credentials in the first post and I'm ashamed to admit, I've only watched about 4 of his jdoramas (those that are available on D-A tracker of course). Okay, counting "First Kiss", I would say 5 but although I've downloaded the first 3 episodes, I haven't gotten around to watching it. Maybe in a month when I return home from my hiatus. I hear good ratings and reviews of "First Kiss" so I hope it won't be disappointing int he very least.

Thanks for the links Tsubasa! I watched the press video. I can't believe that one guy cut him off before he could answer the question! but he just laughed it off, so cute!
here's another article about the Venice film festival, in english this time. Seems things didn't go over so well with the crtics... but I never agree with them anyway!
http://www.japan-zone.com/news/2007/09/ ... ival.shtml
and about first kiss, yeah I think the story itself is a little lackluster but the acting is good, definetly the main thing the drama has going for it. It's worth watching
and here's a little review, nothing about Hideaki's performance but it's worth a read.

Well, Umizaru is probably one of his most famous works, but that's a movie, drama and then another movie so you might not have time for that. Most people liked Yasha a lot, if you're into the really funny & goofy dramas he was in Bengoshi no Kuzu and he actually won best supporting actor for that. If you're looking for dramas to watch online, Tentai Kansoku was good and is on youtube and crunchyroll. Not sure if you need them or not but a lot of his dramas are pretty hard to find with english subtitles so I'd pretty much just take what you could get.LilyPop! wrote:wow he's been in a lot of stuff. i only know him from First Kiss and i sometimes dont like how his character behaves there.
i'll try watching some of his other dramas...any suggestions??
Wachigaiya Itosato website is up with a full on gallery and his interview (not sure for how long it's been but I just saw it now). I gotta say, I'm not really into the Hideaki & Aya pairing

yup~ that's why I started hanging around chinese forum/guestbook/communities. it's not easy to keep a site running and updated. there also used to be a lot more Ito's fan sites in japan b4 his management company shut them down due the whole imagery copyright thing.Laurenski wrote: oh yeah I've seen you before!

not very fond of his official site, updates are too slow. nowadays I probably checks his 2ch discussion thread for updates

Ai Tokidoki Uso (1998) - this is the drama that start to grab many ppl's hearts and get them notice Hideaki in Japan. the mix of pureness and devilish of 千里(char. name) shines brightly~ this is also the first drama that Matsumoto Yasuko from First Kiss and Hideaki worked togther.
Yasha (2000) - his first and ever take on two main roles. a high IQ, genetic-modified twins. great watch as a whole. the music, direction and story is packaged quite beautifully. some fans consider this as Hideaki's personal promo drama.. haha
like Laurenski said Umizaru series is good watch too~ for many reasons. story wise wouldn't be the best but other factors make the series worth its popularity. hehe
for comedy, go for Bengoshi no Kuzu, and Boku no Mahoutsukai.

Thanks so much Tsubasa! (ha I keep wanting to call you Calpiswater)
Man, what would I do without ya, I'd never be able to find those with my lack of language skills and all.
Anyway, you know I'm noticing a similar outfit recently. The white shirt and black vest, it looks like he wore it to both the sukiyaki test screening and the premiere recently. And then he also wore a black vest in Venice (but switched it up with a blue shirt that time) Wow, the man really likes vests doesn't he Ok with me though, he looks good in 'em. Also, this man's got some nice jewelry, rings especially. I've been noticing that lately.

Just watched Sukiyaki at the Toronto filmfest last night. It was very very good! Super hilarious and Ito was very dashing as a cowboy! It was kinda strange watching a Japanese movie with the actors speaking in English, but totally funny at the same time. I'd love to see it again when it comes out in theatres or on DVD.
I didn't find his English terrible, but he didn't really speak that much in the movie to begin with. More of the 'cool cowboy' character - less talk, more action type. And also, there were English subtitles at the bottom of the screen. Usually if they place subtitles I'd read it anyway, even though I completely understand the language. But all in all, it wasn't as bad as I thought and I think it rose the humour up a notch since it was all in English.
Here's a quick little article about the whole drunk thing, doesn't really say much but it's something.

I'm obsessed with Hideaki Ito now...well, not really obsessed, but he's HOT! He's definitely underrated as an actor and for his hotness
I'm watching Kodoku no Kake and since there weren't any English subs, I searched and found Chinese subs. It seemed promising at first, but then the story just went all over the place. I'm still going to finish it because of him and I do like Kyoko Hasegawa...we'll see if it gets any better. He looks mighty fine in his suits in the drama though

You have a good point, he is Very underrated in terms of Hotness! I think he's the best looking man I've ever seen, but whenever anyone else mentions him it's usually like oh yeah he's a good actor but I liked -enter younger actor's name here-. It's such a shame. I guess Kimura Takuya is the only older guy who gets a lot of love at least from the type of girls i talk to, that's mainly the idol fangirls.
I watched all of Kodoku no Kake without subs and even then i could tell it kinda went in the wrong direction. I kept watching it though cuz he was really good in it, and i liked his character. he was hot as the jerk of the show. I thought it got better in the end actually, and yeah the suits...very nice. He cleans up well, but I gotta say I'm glad he didn't keep that hairstyle for too long. haha

wow! i am a big fan of him and i haven't noticed that he has got a thread...
i think he was so cute in First Kiss, he played the older brother very well, but at the beginning of the drama i thought he would be the boyfriend...
i am sad because this thread became abandoned... most of the people are not able to realise his charm...
by the way i would like to share with you my favourite pics of him.
(THE BEST PIC!)

Hi wuff! yeah this thread has become a little abandoned I guess since he hasn't been around as much and I guess he doesn't have so many fans at D-addicts, but that's ok because I'm still here
...well, actually he has been around and working lately just smaller projects that don't get as much press, but he has another big blockbuster movie coming out by the end of the year so we have that to look forward to!

new movie??? OMG! What fantastic news! Thanks a lot! This year is full of surprises and good things... And what kind of movie will it be? Comedy, drama, action, romance?
The movie should come out around about October...or December I think. It's one of those two, and it's called 252: Seizonsha Ari, and guess what....It's another Coast Guard Movie! He plays a rescuer again. I think it's funny because while he was promoting Sukiyaki Western, he was like "From now on I'm only going to do interesting movies like this, no more of that Umizaru stuff." and then he goes and does a movie exactly like it That's ok though, I really liked umizaru and we all know he loves diving and being in water, so as long as he's happy it's good. Oh and he has a daughter in this movie, I don't think I've ever seen him act as a dad before, even though he's dad age. I look forward to that.wuff wrote:new movie??? OMG! What fantastic news!

Umizaru is a very good movie, because it is not the common, everyday life, drama, romantic movie. It touched my heart when I first watched it. He is so cool, handsome in these movies.
Woah, it is fantastic that he is going to play a Daddy in his new movie!!! I think he looks like a typical young father. and in this way he will play (act) a new role...
Is Sukiyaki Western worth to watch it? Because the pics, which I have seen from it weren't so nice... (blood and so on...)

lavenderskye - Yeah I think you should watch the Drama Umizaru Revolution, I think it's actually my favorite part of the series.
And I watched Sukiyaki Western Django and I liked it a lot. I thought he looked really hot in it, and his english was really cute!
Oh and for smaller projects that he's done lately, he did Earth Odessey, a program where a celeb goes to a different part of the world and educates us about it. He went to Hawaii (the same as he did in 2006 with Planet Blue) and swam with whales, he was so excited! It was adorable! And he just recently did Yonimo Kimyona Monogatari 2008, it's a program every year about weird events that happen. I think 6 celebs were in it this year, they each had I think a half hour segment, Hideaki's was the first one and it was really good. I liked it a lot. Plus, it's recent so you can see how he looks more recently since he hasn't been in any major dramas or movies lately. It's up on youtube so you guys should watch it. The only thing is it isn't subbed but I still think it's worth watching, since there's actually not too much dialogue and it's easy to figure out.

I am a big fan and would be very grateful if you continue to share information!
First saw him in Onmyoji some years back (which pretty much intoduced me to Japan) and absolutely fell in love with him. After that I gradually sought out almost all the movies he was in and about half of his drama list. He's really enjoyable in Yasha, especially as Rin. He's nice as Oda Nobunaga, adoring as Haruki in Himitsu and a pure romantic in Princess Blade. He's touching in Crossfire and so crazy in Blister. And he's a bright and promising young man in Umizaru. And he's nice and non-ordinary in Bengoshi no Kuzu!
Didn't like him in Sukiyaki Western, though I suppose half the blame should fall onto Miike-san - he was the one shaping out roles and making actors play what he wanted.
I'm glad that he came in close contact with Sato Koichi-san and hope this friendship will do him much good.
Impatiently waiting for Keikan no chi (only two weeks left there!) and, after seeing the trailer, waiting for Kamui gaiden where our favourite Ito-san seems to play a very contrasting role.

Nice to meet you Sanari, you seem like a real fan! Most people I see always know him from either First Kiss or Umizaru. I, like you have followed his career for some time. I agree with you on all your opinions, except I think Sukiyaki Western wasn't that bad. I thought he did alright, but it was a very demanding role and the whole plot was a little odd and maybe not the most well thought out. I think you really need to appreciate westerns to really enjoy the movie thoroughly, but I thought it was alright.
I'm also very excited for Keikan no Chi coming up and of course Kamui looks very good. I really am liking Hideaki's appearance in this movie, very cool.
Here's some insight on 252, with a lot of background information and interviews with the cast in its entirety, all of them which mention a little something about Ito. Everybody seems to really like him!

Glad to meet you too, Laurenski! It's great that you're still here and wanting to share information.
Thank you very much for the link! Everything there is very interesting and helping to understand, to delve deeper into the movie and Ito-san's character. It was a pleasurable surprise to learn that he was the one who made the movie roll. The story of "just a gift" is absolutely wonderful
It seems to me that he's growing from "a young actor who does what he's told" into someone very real and strong in what he's doing.
As for Sukiyaki Western... well, it was as strange as any of Miike-san's works, where things are turned upside down and inside out to throw people out of usual trail of thinking. It is a good work and appreciable one but - returning to Ito-san's role - the inside of usual western hero, the person who does not participate in overall action is somewhat frustrating. In this role Ito attracts no attention of those who didn't see him in other movies. This is what chagrines me. Because this individual is due to attract attention

Yeah I know, that whole article was really nice. Everybody had such nice things to say about him. I was really surprised that this movie was actually made FOR HIM, I had no idea! I think that's so adorable. I agree with you very much, he seems now to be a much more respected actor who is confident in his talent and his abilties, rather than just some pretty face who plays the supporting character or love interest. It's really nice to see him grow as an actor. Oh and I especially liked the quote of Ito's in his prime, from the article. It's so true!Sanari wrote:Glad to meet you too, Laurenski!

I see what you're saying. I was excited for him to star in a Miike film because of the promotion they always get overseas and how they seem to already have a built in following, but this one didn't do much for him. Hideaki was kind of overlooked even though he was starring, because I think he was overshadowed by the more eccentric characters who seemed to go over better with viewers and critics. I went through exactly what you're talking about. I'd read reviews and blogs about Sukiyaki Western but there would hardly be any mention of him! It was so annoying. I wish he had more fans, I think even in the Japanese industry, he's a bit underrated, even though he may be popular.
Agreed!
I have some photos to share. Most of them are from Ito-san's official site but some are not and I'm not quite sure where I found them. They weren't posted here before as far as I know. So...
In violin practice is everything.
They are both so cute - he and his dog
Lightsaber is a thing that anyone can try but not everybody can handle
It is said there was once a Japanese movie telling the story of Rolling Stones. The lawers sued television company on this matter and thus the movie isn't available anymore. This is what is was left of it: Ito-san as Keith Richards.

Thanks Sanari
I seriously hate his official site, and how you have to pay for almost EVERYTHING! I did have a membership on there once but I think it expired, but I know they were having problems with the login for a while so maybe that was it too. But I miss having a membership, M's blog was so nice and the galleries too. At least wallpaper is still free. His dog is cute, isn't it named Mogu or something like that. Does that mean anything?
Oh i had no idea about this Rolling Stones thing. That's so interesting! How long ago was that? To me, it barely looks like him but maybe that's because he had to look like Keith, and because he's singing in it too.

Oh, I know what you are talking about concerning his official site! I tried to get membership there half a year ago. But they redirected me to their provider where in polite Japanese I was told I have to live in Japan to get an account. Since I don't live there I could only shrug and go away.
Don't know if it's really named Mogu But if so, I guess, it means "pick up" - probably the dog is used to picking up everything in sight
This Rolling Stones thing was about three to four years ago if I'm not mistaken. And yeah, Ito-san barely looks like himself There are a couple of characteristically his features on this photo by which I recognised him before I found the line beneath the picture telling where it's taken from.

That's such a shame that they couldn't air it. All that hard work for nothing . Yeah the jawline and cheekbones are pretty hard to miss on him, very dominant features
So I don't know if you've seen these, maybe because they came out like a month ago but here's some scans from his editorial in TARZAN magazine.
Photo from somebody's blog
Smaller version
Not too shabby haha
I remember when he was young and used to be so skinny, those days are long gone!
Thanks a lot for these, didn't see them before
Yeah, "not too shabby" by far He's all 'grown up' now and thankfully no less good to look at
Funny that no matter how much his jawline and cheekbones are prominent sometimes he is very not like himself. I know a fan of his who didn't recognize him in this one

That's not him though. Isn't that Sato Koichi in Kamui Gaiden...Sanari wrote:

They showed all the characters besides Kamui in a close up shot once, and Ito's character is seen right before this guy and then later on in a group shot.
I don't really see a resemblence but that's ok haha.
Anyway, Keikan no Chi's first part should've aired today (I don't know the time difference between where I am and Japan but I think it should've aired), hopefully video will be available soon, I haven't seen any leaks or anything but I'm still looking.
