Kid actors and actresses? Too cute!

I've noticed a lot of the same child actors and actresses pop up across several dramas. Who are some of your favorites? Here are some of mine.

Karen Miyama of "Boku to Kanojo to Ikiru Michi" (and an episode of "Kiken na Aneki") She's the essence of cuteness. If I had a daugther, I wish she were this cute.

Mayuko Fukada of "Joou no Kyoshitsu" (and episode 1 of Byakuyakou). She's like a mini Haruka Ayase! So pretty!

Riko Narumi of "1 Litre no Namida" and "Ruri no Shima." She has a really unique look about her, and she seems mature well beyond her age.

Izumisawa Yuki of "Brother Beat" and (episode 1 of Byakuyakou). He did such a good job in Byakuyakou. The end of Ep 1 is a classic tear jerker.

Nakajima Yuto of "Nobuta wo Produce" and "Engine." A really funny kid. All of his little bits in Nobuta really cracked me up.

Kamiki Ryunosuke! :victory:

awwww she was soooo cute in hotman as nanami! when she had sad looks on her face i felt so bad for her it made me want to cry. she's adorable

Morihaku Toe chan: http://jdorama.com/artiste.1739.htm

I noticed her in Ashita Tenki Ni Nare, then she was also in Nobuta(tiny tiny role, but nevertheless)
she's actually going to be playing Maruko chan in the movie version of Chibi Maruko chan (I saw a little clip of the promo of the show) She's so cute as Maruko chan

Kamiki Ryunosuke: saw him in Yoshitsune as the younger Ushiwaka Maru, he was quite a good actor... He's doing the voice of Nobita kun in Doraemon's new movie..haha... actually i think he's done a few other anime voices.......

Actually another little actress who caught my eye was Sasaki Mao, She played Setsuko in the movie version of Hotaru no Haka (the anime done by Miyazaki Hayao)

Wow she was really good actress, her co-star (i can't remember his name now, he was in Engine) was really good too

How could I forget this one( :bonk: ) Kenta Suga in Hito ni Yashisku was great!!!
