Best Actor:
Dohmoto Tsuyoshi (Summer Snow, To Heart) - though I have only watched him in Summer Snow and To Heart, he was able to play both completely different roles very well.
Best Supporting Actor:
Ryu Raita (Hotman, Shota no Sushi) - Great, different performances in both.
Overrated:
KimuTaku (Good Luck, Long Vacation, Sleeping Forest) - c'mon, he plays KimuTaku. It's not bad, just like Harrison Ford plays Harrison Ford all the time. Still, it's not good acting.
Can't Act:
Nagase Tomoya (Yanpapa, Mukodono) - Oh man, so terrible. Each drama had me pulling teeth.
Kubozuka Yosuke (Go, Ping Pong, GTO, SOS) - with the exception of Go, he has pretty much played that weird guy with the accent. A different style of acting then most, but when it gets repetitive...
Best Actress:
Matsushima Nanako (Story of One Century, Yamato Nadeshiko, Toshii to Matsu) - though she sleepwalked through GTO, her other performances I've seen have been excellent.
Can't Act:
Fukada Kyoko - plays the rather dumb but cute girl all the time. Not a great actress.
Unfortunately lots of roles for women are pretty much the same. I'll have to consider more carefully... _________________ "...but it was my integrity that was important. Is that so selfish?

Actors:
Dohmoto Tsuyoshi- only saw him in kindaichi, summer snow, to heart but they were more than enough to display the varied solid acting talent thats in him...hes nosy, caring and funny in one....hes quiet, cool, a lonewolf in the other...i just like his acting...its WIGGED
Sorimachi Takashi- watched GTO, virgin road and hotman...can be funny and serious when he needs to be...one of the part i still remember well in GTO, when Oguri Shun, as yoshikawa, undresses and reveals all the bruises he had to endure, the facial expressions from Takashi as he stood there...priceless...just how i imagined onizuka would be...
GOOD STUFF!
Oguri Shun- best supporting actor in jdramas...wigged...this guy can act very well...like VERY VERY well....check out the dramas hes in...strongly recommend Summer Snow...this dude is awesome
Actresses:
Hirosue Ryoko- watched her in summer snow, otousan, and shotgun marriage...she played the CUTEST, MOST IRRESISTABLE role i've ever seen in a jdrama as Katase Yuki in summer snow, wiping out all competition...k fine, her voice cracks at times when she yells (<ahem> most noticeable in shotgun marriage) but she has VERY CONVINCING acting talent to fool many on screen (especially as the lovely Yuki-chan....sigh)
Matsu Takako- finished Love Generation and watched a few eps of Hero...a very SASSY actress...pretty good at portraying her characters, conveying the emotions when needs to....her and kimutaku have good chemistry
Wakui Emi- only saw her in Virgin Road, nonetheless her acting was incredible...amazing as the pregnant, single woman...if u wanna see EXCELLENT ACTING, u'd prolly wanna take the time to check out her dramas...

The BEST catagory is tough because it means I have to leave out a lot of my favorites. A lot of the guys who stared in some of my favorite shows, and a lot of the actresses I have crushes on.
But in terms of best actor and actress, I'd say:
Best actress:
Yamaguchi Tomoko
Best actor:
Tsutsumi Shinichi
And boy isn't it hard to come up with just two, because there are so many really talented actors and actresses working in Japan. The advantage of having such a rich theatrical history. _________________ Manga is to Literature

Best Actress
Shima Iwashita: An icon in Japanese cinema and Yankumi's favorite actress (see Gokusen Special). Throughout her 40-year acting career, she has played regal and poor, heroic and villainous, virtuous and slatternly--all equally convincingly. In addition to her many movies, she has appeared in all types of dorama series: Taiga, comedies, and dramas.
Runner-up
Eri Fukatsu: Equally adept at comedy and drama. Often overshadowed by flashier-looking, commercially appealing idol-types, but when you watch her in a dorama series or movie, you can't help but come away knowing you've watched a damn good actress.
Honorable Mention
Yoko Nogiwa: Like Iwashita, a veteran, consummate actress. Always enjoyable to watch.
Nanako Matsushima: I had originally dismissed her as just another pretty face, but her performance in Toshiie and Matsu demonstrated her considerable acting talent.
Atsuko Asano: Dominates each scene she is in.
Tomoko Yamaguchi: Now that she has come out of semi-retirement, I hope she gets involved in dorama worthy of her talents.
Best Actor
Koji Yakusho: I first saw him in a TV mini-series, Takeda Shingen, that was made years ago. He has since gone on to act primarily in movies, although he does have several other dorama series to his credit. I am constantly trying to find English subtitled copies of these dorama, but so far no luck. I think many would consider him to be Japan's premier actor, and he is building a body of work which will eventually stack up against any in the history of Japanese cinema.
Runner-up
Sanma Akashiya: Known primarily as a comedian, he always does a great job in a whole host of dorama comedies he has appeared in over the years. But if you''ve seen him in a serious series like Sora Kara Furu Ichi-Oku no Hoshi, he is equally outstanding in dramatic roles.
Honorable Mention
Masahiko Nishimura: Always seems to play quirky characters. Always does a great job. Always entertaining.
Shinichi Tsutsumi: Excellent at both comedy and drama.
Sonny Chiba: Younger people will recognize him as the imposing father in Dekichatta Kekkon. He was good in that, but he was even better in earlier series from the 70's and 80's like Yagyu Conspiracy and Shadow Warriors where he was able to display his considerable martial arts talents in addition to his underestimated acting skills. Ex-husband of Yoko Nogiwa.
