It' been so long since I've posted an entry here... ^_^
I just finished watching Yasashii Jikan which stars Nino and Masami.....
I personally think Nino is a better actor than Matsujun... it's just that the latter is more exposed...
I really like the pace of the story.. everything from the cinemtography to the excellent musical scoring
was great...
I don't really like the character of Azu played by Masami... but it goes to show she's a good actress...
I mean a person like that in real life would be pretty annoying to me and I know a lot of people would agree...
but i'm glad her character matured in the end...Nino was great!!! I could feel how sad his character was...
and even the person playing his father did a god job too!!! ^___^ the cast definitely gave a good
performance as a whole...Even if some might find the pace
slow, i found myself unable to stop watching this...
I finished all 11 episodes in 2 days... haha!!!
they look like a family...^_^
I loved the soundtrack and i'm currently downloading it... this is a first for me, 'cause i usually don't
download the whole thing... usually just a theme song... but i'm getting all the tracks...
my favorite as of now would have to be the theme song to the drama called "Ashita" sung by Hirahara Ayaka
the lyrics and translation are below
this is the coffee shop which taku(nino)'s father runs and where azu works
Zutto soba ni iru to anna ni itta noni
Ima wa hitori miteru yozora hakanai yakusoku
Kitto kono machi nara dokoka de surechigau
sonna toki wa warainagara aetara ii noni
Mou nakanai mou makenai
omoide wo koerareru ashita ga aru kara
Sotto tojita hon ni tsudzuki ga aru nara
mada nan ni mo kakarete'nai PE-JI ga aru dake
Mou nakanai mou nigenai
natsukashii yume datte owari ja nai mono
Ano hoshikuzu ano kagayaki
te wo nobashite ima kokoro ni shimaou
Ashita wa atarashii watashi ga hajimaru

“Always, close to you I will be”
Those are the words I used to believe
Now as I stand alone, all of the stars are gone
How far away that vow now seems.
I know, somewhere in this city
Chance will somehow let us meet again
And when that day arrives, I think it would be nice
If we could smile and be content.
No more… will these tears fall
No more… sadness will rule
I will cross over
All of the memories
For there will be another dawn.
Gently, I let our story close
But if someday it must go on
There’ll be a single page, that throughout all our days
I know no words could e’er belong.
No more… tears for today
No more… running away
Always here with me
That precious dream
That I no longer want to fade.
The glow… of the stardust
Bestows… light upon me
I close up tight~ my former heart
And let it end~ within that glow
Because tomo~rrow there will be
A brand new me~ born anew.

I just finished listening to the tracks in NEWS' Summer Time single,
and so far the songs are great!! ^_^
This is a really good single compared to taiyou no namida which disappointed me..
Surprisingly, this single shows me just how versatile NEWS can be...
Summer Time is kinda like weeeek, something that makes you wanna dance,
but at the same time it sounds relaxing...
Liar is probably my least favorite in the single, it's somewhat a lame attempt on a rock song,
added with english words thrown carelessly in the chorus...
Baby! Be My Baby! is easily my favorite, since it is more upbeat than Summer Time
and sounds great! This time, the english words thrown in, are just right...
in fact this song reminds of Arashi a lot...
Easy Come, Easy Go is just ok for me... one of those songs that sounds carefree...
hope they sell well!!
so far, after a week, they've sold around 200, 000 + copies!! OMEDETOU to NEWS!!

I posted the tracks in my sidebar...
Enjoy!!
Yesterday, I finally got
the chance to see another movie of masami's.. YAY!!! XD i really like
how this movie didn't end with someone dying like her other jun-ai movies... it also has yamada takayuki in it!!! coincidentially, she starred in a movie that got turned into a drama that he starred in......... ^_^
here are some screenshots:
MASAMI NAGASAWA
hmmm... never heard of it before....
...very strange seeds... do they really sleep for 50 years?
... he didn't recognize her but people knew she was a model... XD
... the three friends when they were kids... beautiful sunset...
.... yubikiri...........
... final scene....YAY!!! she didn't die... T_T.. relieved..... the store's name is also their dog's name: TRASH... lol....
Some people might not agree if this movie is a tearjerker, but to those who can relate to saying goodbye to friends like moving or something, i'm sure they can... definitely a good movie, but not as powerful as tada kimi wo aishiteru....

I just finished watching the 4 episode and so far this drama is great!!
I really like the cast because they all portray their roles well... I'm still not used to seeing Ryo in that kind
of character though, this is the first drama i've seen him in... : )
Juri, Eita and Asami have a sort of Nodame reunion... ^_^
Masami's great as usual, but i still have to get used to her playing a weak, submissive character
Cast
* Nagasawa Masami as Aida Michiru
* Ueno Juri as Kishimoto Ruka
* Eita as Mizushima Takeru
* Nishikido Ryo as Oikawa Sosuke
* Mizukawa Asami as Minami
I can't help but notice that nodame, mine and kiyora are here.... they're starting to seem
like real good friends... are they?
I also can't help but dislike ryo's character.... sousuke's such a jerk....
i wonder if kenzo can come as a guest to save rei.... haha!!
anyway, i really like this drama and look forward to the coming episodes, i hope more people will watch this
