What a trip.

I just finished watching a (mediocre) nonsense comedy called "Heaven Cannot Wait". And after 11 episodes I bopped in to see if I'd ever seen the lead, Matsuoka in anything else.

Blew me away when I discovered he played Kojiro in Musashi.

I'm very glad I saw Musashi first, because there's no way I could have accepted him as the deadly Kojiro, after watching him mug, whine, and pratt fall his way through "Heaven..."

Good Lord, Musashi is just a treasure trove of actors and actresses.

Okay, there's a series to leave off my watch list.

As you would expect from an NHK Taiga drama. :)

I agree on both, but like most of the actors in Musashi, she was wearing a wig...

Sorry to disappoint you... :beaten:

Rats, you're telling me they didn't get the samurai hairdo for the series? Shucks. :D That would've been a scene to see them walking down the street.

I think the only one who had his own 'do was Priest Takuan. :hehe:

Well...I thought that the actresses wouldn't need as much "wigature" for their parts.

Most of 'em don't have the volume (or color) of hair required for their roles, I think. :)

I'm sure she did, but I don't know to what extent...
