Hehe, I'll admit, I like both them! Nagase is a bit of a one-trick pony from what I've seen, but at least he's good at his trick! Toma's more serious roles left a lot to be desired, but he's good with comic roles too!

Don't forget Kaname Jun :inlove: Actually, the supporting cast looks pretty good.

I'm a girl and I like the male cast, but who am I really gonna watch this for? NAKASHIMA MIKA AND AOI YUU (my favs) !!! a little but for Erika too...and Nagase-kun with Kato Ai is a throw back to Ikebukuro West Gate Park fashooooo :inlove:

^ Thanks for the fangirl confirmation. :mrgreen: :hehe:

Thoughts on first episode: Yay so happy to see Nishida Toshiyuki and Nagase reunited as father and son. :dancing: The only person that feels missing from the cast is Abe Sadao. He would have been perfect for Anai Kiichi's role. The comedian guy (whose name escapes me at the moment) might have the comedic part down, but lacks acting talent and experience that Abe has. Abe's in nearly all of Kudo's other works, wonder why he's not in this one, too? :( (Though I just remembered he wasn't in Manhattan Love Story either.)

Nagase's character is such a loser (in an entertaining way). :hehe: I loved the part when he goes stomping off to his room like a child because his father made him upset. His role as Toraji in Tiger & Dragon was really cool, but Unubore is the opposite. Just like the ladies at his office said, "He looks good if only he keeps his mouth shut."

The first 10min really tickles me :fingerscrossed: looking forward to Nagase's wackiness. He's Japanese version of Jim Carey
