Saw the fifth episode of Kuitan 2 last night. That was the curry episode where Momo-chan showed off her awesome cooking skills. "Itadakimasu," the coupling song from "Itoshi no Napolitan," played during the ending scene where they all ate curry at Holmes Agengy.

This was one of my favourite episodes!

I know! I adored that she had a little Mini-me in that one.

The most recent episode that I watched, Kuitan showed off his flexiblility, which was awesome. I wish I could touch my toes, or rather, bend down and grab onto my legs like he could. Woah, weird description, but hopefully you guys remember the scene. And he did a lot of backflips in that episode too. So fun to watch.

I totally remember what you are talking about! That sequence is what made me youtube him to see if he was a dancer. He is.

^ I especially liked the curry episode too guys! I really really rate Kyono Kotomi. I think she's brilliant.

The last episode I watched was 9 - the back-in-time one. I thought this was the weakest episode so far.

@ Wynter - what about Iberia Iberico in series 1? Didn't that alert you to Higashi's dancing skill?

LOL! Too mesmerized.

What, by Higashi's flamenco-ing hips?

It's hard to believe how drastic the change from her Shomuni character Momo-chan is. I was in disbelief when I first saw her in Kuitan.

As long as it's not something else. (Oi, I'm such a perv.)

I finally finished Kuitan 2 and I'm just so sad that it's over. I'm slightly tempted to watch it again, but then I realize that I have a ton of other dramas that need my attention. I hope one of these days I'll have the chance to sit down and write a review on both seasons.

All I can say for now is that Kuitan surpasses Igarashi in this drama for me. Yes, my Shiro has some competition now.

It was the other way around for me - I couldn't believe how timid her character is in Shomuni after Kuitan.

Ack! I haven't been able to watch the last 2 episodes yet.
Does anyone know if there's going to be another special? If there is, it'd better be better than the first one.

Gasp! Am I reading right?! Betraying your Shiro - how could you? *sniffs*

Yeah... it's Shiro's birthday today too ....

Haha, I have to re-watch Shomuni 1 and 2 so I can get to the last series. I hope it was good.

Oh, and hopefully you have the time to watch the last episode soon. No, maybe it's better not to because if you're like me, you'll be at a loss because it'll be over. No clue if there's another special, but I hope there is/will be.

Nah, Shiro will always be #1. I can always have backups when he's not available though.

Well, it's still not his birthday here, so I'm in the clear. But damn, that was bad timing for that comment, eh?

Hmmm. Damn, he's 53... doesn't look it!

I think he looks better now than he did in his 30's. Mostly because he had geeky roles and wore thick glasses back then.

Tokyo Elevator Girl.

Finshed Kuitan 2 today. This second series was marvellous. Thanks again AD!
But I whimpered pitifully as the last credits rolled because there's no more.

The ending this time seemed much more final than series 1. I hope it doesn't mean there's no series 3....

I'm watching this at the moment...
just finished epi 1
like it so far,,,,so funny

Stay tune for more Higashiyama dance routines in "GM ~ Odore Doctor", a drama all tailored for him.

Did he learn his dancing when he was a kid ? I equally mesmerised as well.

I'm not sure about right now, but when he was younger he was in a popular singing group where they performed heavy (though at times corny) dance routines.
