most talented j-drama actor/actress?

Itou Atsushi is definitely one of my most favorite actors, because he is a very memorable character! His acting is superb! I also like Itou Misaki very much, she played Hermes-tan (Aoyama-san) very well in Densha Otoko. I have't seen many other dramas, but I liked that guy in the GTO Live Action drama. Forgot his name though, been a long time...

Toshiaki Kurosawa & Eguchi Yosuke

Great choices!! :applaud:

Toshiaki is amazing. As Toshiie, along with Matsushima, he made the series riveting. In Love Complex he was both desirable and diabolical. Tremendous range.

And Eguchi in Mona Lisa's Smile carried the series.

But I have to put in my vote for Yutaka Takenouchi. Guess Im not surprising anyone. :hehe:
I adored him as the reserved brother and spy in Toshiie to Matsu , the tortured composer in With Love and as the ultimate summer cutie in Beach Boys

Yes, everyone, it is time to break out the pea coat once more. :hehe: :hehe:

How about his role as a doctor and a bad guy, but became a good guy because of love in Hoshi no Kinka? :bonk:

I watch Yutaka and KimuTaku sparingly, because once you run out, it's over. :doh:

But Im turning a friend onto Pride this week. :hehe:

Yeah, Yutaka Takenouchi and Kimura Takuya is a great 1-2 punch :mrgreen: :hehe: . I'm sure these 2 actors will have more jdoramas to come, so don't worry about running out of jdoramas that they are in it :) .

Theyre on the top of a lot of peeps lists!! :thumbsup:

Its OK, I'll run with the crowd for these two :hehe:

Best actor for me definitely is KARASAWA TOSHIAKI!!!

his acting in Great white tower is jus purely perfect!! While almost everyone think tat he jus tat cool kind of person in real life, he's actually a funny and a damn nice guy!! it really makes me nearly fell off from my chair as it is such a great difference between Zaizen Goro and himself!!

After i watched Great white tower, i watched Love Complex, wat a great difference again. In love complex, he is jus a "crazy" guy wif full of lame words!

Nagase Tomoya. he always makes me laugh. n he looks real intense in those touching scenes.

Ueto Aya is almost the same as nagase tomoya

Itou Misaki can go from a bimbo in tiger and dragon to an ultra innocent woman in train man.

This beautiful little girl, I don't know her name, from Hotaru No Haka.

She was absolutely brilliant in the movie...

im new here......
huhuhuuhuhuhuhu :bonk:
hmmm...its hard to choose who are th most talented,
but i will choose ueto aya-san for sure, 100% sure.....
for cutest, kawai-est girl out there! haha

of course... that should be takuya kimura from smap!!! weeeee!!!! :dancing:

and i agree nagase is also a good actor (thumps up!) i like him at mukodono!

wow, never seen this thread b4 :P i'd say kimura takuya for sure :mrgreen:

I actually haven't seen lots of Jap actors yet... I've only seen a few... Mostly fr0m Gokusen... brother beat... and Jap horror flicks... :bleh: In my opinion, Yukie Nakama is a fine young actress... She can portray any role given to her... I especially loved her in Ring 0 and of course GOKUSEN. :mrgreen: I like that actor in Brother Beat.. The one who acted as Mocomichi's older bro... He's kinda cool. Mocomichi is alright too... I'm not judging him coz of his looks only... i can see some potential in him... and so is "Uchi" and "Noda" fr0m Gokusen... They're all great... :naughty:

i've gotta say erika sawajiri (i'm a big fan of her...hehe)
i like the way she differently portrays each character she plays...and she even has different hair style for almost every character...and that's what makes her so special
for male...i like joe odagiri and naoto F. they're cool!!!kawaii!!

Please refrain from using "Jap", as it is offensive.

Please see this thread for more information. http://jdorama.com/viewtopic.22.htm

Y'know, I'm locking this thread: it's completely and totally redundant as everyone is just tooting the horn for their faves... And they're already doing in the individual threads.

If you think otherwise and have a convincing argument, PM me.
