I found Tsuyoshi old drama '君といた未来のために ~I'll be back' [Kimi to ita Mirai no tame ni ~ I'll be back] that has been subbed in English (in progress).

episode: 10
aired: 1999-01-16 to 1999-03-20

Done by Ame no Uta :: here ::

download link are in torrents and MU.

I was bump into Sento-kun while helping wsang244 that planned to get one of the goods through someone who will visit Nara by next month^^

Sento-kun is the official mascot to commemorate the 1300 years anniversary of Nara Heijo-kyo capital. Apparently there will be a special anniversary event on year 2010.
See the official website: http://www.1300.jp/
I wonder whether our Nara Tourism Ambassador will conduct a certain act for the event xD

Anyway, apparently there were pro and contra on the determination of Sento-kun as the mascot. Some seen it as a kawaii yet creepy. Some thought it kind of a disrespect to Budha. But it seems the mascot eventually accepted?

Tidbits:
- There's 12 poses(?) of Sento-kun
- One of the blogparts available to download




Ok, off to bed, tomorrow I'll do fasting.

I finished with 'Mr. Brain' last night. Whoah, I really like this drama!
This drama really has interesting casts, interesting cases, interesting guests..

* To my surprises, some of the guests were came to DK at that time that I don't think they were there to promote the drama ( Kinoshita Yukina, Daichi Mao ).
* Ichikawa Ebizo is the most deeply impact character and is the best opponent for our Mr.Brain.
* Hirosue Ryoko short appearance is just sweet =D
* Koyuki and Nakama Yukie performed a good work as a beautiful murderer.
* The pianist that looks familiar to me apparently is Hideaki Togi-san who did have a collaboration with Tsuyoshi at his Bigaku album. Actually, this post makes me remember^^
* Some young and raising actors/actresses (Kamenashi Kazuya, Aibu Saki, Sato Takeru) appearance made a fresh look xD
* Katori Shingo cameo appearance at the final part gave me a big laugh^^'

Each case solved in a simply smart way. How do I say it? It took psycological view, logical connection and fact of facts supported by high technology (of course) to solve the case. But yet make us think we can do it if only we knew the theory and such. I mean it's not really hard to understand at all.

They way each character built, their relationship and communication..it makes the atmosphere formed naturally. Ayase Haruka and Mizushima Hiro performed well here. Mizushima Hiro did a good job along with his partner. They make me can't think of other actor/actreess that fit for their roles. Even everyone is perfect for their roles. Like Tsukumo-san said, Yuri Kazuna is the best assistant :p

My fave cases are the amnesia pianist (ep 5) and the last episode.
It's amazing to know about brain things and I laughed at myself on the method of smile part. You'll see how idiotic Ayase Haruka here^^

It's amazing, to see how the brain works, isn't it?^^'
... and Kimura Takuya will always be my fave actor (^o^)/

Oh, I don't know what to say about Buzzer Beat. It's just dissapointing to me. The only impressed me is the theme song, Ichibutozenbu by B'z. Apparently, Kitagawa Keiko got the best actreess for this drama from Nikkon awards. Eh? She's okay, but eh?

at the moment, I'm addicted to:

♪ Arashi no 'Clockwork Umbrella'. An upbeat song that can raise up my mood.

*edited* Ah! This is the kind of song you can sing it in high spirit with waving a towel or a shirt? *wink* at the concert! :lol: (refer to DK with MinMi)

KinKi should have this kind of song.. or they had?

◎ Kimura no dorama 'Mr.Brain'. Interesting cases, interesting casts, interesting guests. 4 episodes to go!
Since 'Pride' (2004), all Kimura dramas have western songs as the theme song. I think it's more to Kimura touch?

dorama update
- Mr.Brain: is interesting since the beginning =)
- Buzzer Beater: uhmm... somehow it reminds me of Pride (Kimura Takuya). Kitagawa-YamaP looks cute together xD

This show is getting interesting each week! *calling letsgetfunkasy for the review*

「24CH△NNEL」#007 20091118, episode Moon rabbit and camping with camping car.

Tsuyoshi and the team are on their way to camping area.
- I'd like to have a car with the navigation voice computer^^
- The camping car looks comfy (but as long as Tsuyoshi sit on the drive seat. or it would be better at the back?)
- The girl voice at the toll ticket machine seems sounds like Tsuyoshi' mother's voice xD


ups, Tsuyoshi on bass

kakkoii~


Everybody knows him^^'

I think I heard something from the ladies, but... nevermind.


Met kawaii inu~


Now we only see his preparation for the camping. We will see the camping part on next week episode.
