Here's a pic I found which is supposed to be Ryoko-chan, yet it sorta doesn't look like her... Can anyone confirm this?

What makes you so sure, Orenji?

The one thing that I noticed is that her two front teeth look a little crooked... I don't recall Ryoko-chan having crooked front teeth in any of her pics... Even her early ones...

I noticed the same thing... Noriko-chan actually has a similar issue with her two front teeth, but not as bad as that last photo.

Changing the subject, I watched Musashi last night for the first time (ep34 to be exact) on KIKU-TV. Quite interesting... Women of the Onsen 3 follows Musashi here in Hawaii, so after a serious drama like Musashi, you are refreshed with a bunch of cute cute Japanese women.

Exactly why does Otsu always look depressed?? I think I saw her crack one smile in ep34, and that was it!!!! I've watched clippings of Musashi here and there in the past... Does Ryoko-chan actually know how to play the flute? Or is it like Michael J. Fox trying to play electric guitar?

no subs. not much idea whats it about. the quality is not that great. but worth a look for the crazy fans here.

trade for her gun crazy dvd rip :nut: :twisted:

Funny that you should mention Gun Crazy: I bought a subbed bootleg from eBay (which was quite good actually), THEN I just bought the Region 2 DVD from Yesasia and got it in the mail a couple of days ago... No subs, but there was craploads of extra Ryoko-chan goodness... :hehe:

I don't have a DVD writer or I'd make copies to trade with you guys...

Gomen nasai... I can't live with this shame. I guess I'll have to commit seppuku... I'll need a second, though...

Forgive me, Ryoko-chan. :sweat:

So do you think that's Ryoko-chan? It looks like a near-consesus that it isn't... Oh well. On the the next pic. :hehe:

She's that way 'cause Musashi/Takezo has put her second to his training in The Way of the Sword... But he keeps coming back to her... If you want to jump ahead, check out my synopses at http://bmwracer.blog-city.com (sorry for the shameless plug :rolleyes: )...

Regarding the flute, I think she took some training and practiced playing with it for a while... One of the links at the Musashi-NHK web site points this out... It's in Japanese, of course, but you get the gist of it... Ryoko-chan seems to take her jobs (acting, modeling, ambassador to Korea, etc.) seriously and works hard, so it doesn't surprise me about the flute... All the more reason to love her! :hehe:

Back to a REAL pic of Ryoko-chan: :D

Yeah I thought the same, the cheek bones look exactly like Nanako's, but I think Nanako's nose is cuter.... She looks as though she's trying to look like Nanako, and who could blame her?

You guys are killin' me... :hehe: :rolleyes: :nut: :bonk:

I guess I should've deleted that fake Ryoko pic... I'll never live it down. :beaten: :hehe:

Another full-size lobby card that I wish I had: :crazy:
