girls!!
i think i watched it 2 times already now... haha!
ok, it did surpass my expectations!... with jun, as usual... i think he improved on his acting too yay!
i think it's blown the twnese mg to god knows which solar system... and the manga can go to the longkang (drain) as well (i hate both). thank god for the short 9 eps format! kowtow to the japanese!
it's so direct straight to the point and they've taken out all the extra soppy, irritating bits and sort of compacted to something where i can focus on a reasonable storyline.
but coz i sort of know the story, i really hope domyoji keeps to this sort of personality instead of turning into some irritating wimp in the later eps.... :fingerscrossed:
and gacktsama dear, since we all sort of 'grew up' with the real jun, we know he can't even strangle a chicken with all his nail polish :sweat: . but i think his acting as domyoji sort of won me over to concentrate on the character itself instead of jun jun jun.
so, personally, i think it was very successfully done. and thank god they hired a better fighting coordinator than those cheap gokusen stunts (i was kind of skeptical at first)! whew!
and oguri shun, well, portrays his character really well.
but thank god really that jun didn't get that rui part, coz i just realized he wouldn't have much to do other than acting shin all over again... (cool, suave, reticent) whew... domyoji is a much more challenging character ne!
and at first, i thought hyd was gonna be an awful next step for jun in his career, but i change my mind now, seeing that domyoji actually can give jun space to grow and 'practice' more on other personality aspects!
overall, maybe i'm biased, but i think jun as domyoji was the most outstanding/memorable character/actor, followed by shun (but somehow i find him kind of dull, just me maybe...). i'm still not so sure about the lead girl though. she's a good actress, but somehow, not exactly sparkling. maybe later eps will get better... as for the other 2 f4, one looks like a martian, one look like their unkle. :hehe:
and ya, i love domyoji's mom! "stop it! light now!" :hehe: i mean, she's great!
