Japanese Actors Discussion Thread

[skoubri]

I get shocked with ages too. Especially when I find out they are about my age! Then is the big shock! I think that unconsciously I think "damn how did they do it? I have done nothing until now". So it kinda seems weird but exciting at the same time

^I think it a bit asian genetics. They look much younger than europeans at similar age...must be their build...they are rather delicate..


speaking about the age thing..I really get turned off when I see they are way younger than me...anything younger 1986 is for me...awww-small-boy-*taps head*....well its just me.

[silvermyst]

I feel the same way too.. I mean, when I find out that they were born in 1990 or onwards, I feel almost like a pedo. ;D I'm only 21 so I'm glad the guys I like from the Japanese entertainment industry are older than me. Yay. ;D

But for the Korean guys.. AGH. They are the same age as my younger sister so I usually feel strange when I go crazy over them. T_T I know age doesn't matter but when it comes to the younger ones, I like to give it a bit of space. ;D

[skoubri]

Hehe... I really don't feel that way. Younger, older... It doesn't really matter to me as long as I like it. But to tell you the truth, although my husband is much older than me, I tend to like japanese actors that are around my age or younger. Well Shun is 26, but Shun is my exception. It's weird. Awwww I'm losing my point!

Young, old as long as they are talented and handsome I don't have problem

^you two are lucky!!

I know how it is to have some exceptions to the rule. I mean I generally stay away from younger guys.. but heck, sometimes it's just inevitable ne? ;D I wonder if your husband protests when he sees you immerse yourself in dramas. x)

I'd have to think about the age thing more though ( I have to settle down sometime too. ;D). But I would gladly track down Hiro in Japan when I get the chance. LOL Or Jun. Whichever is first.

Hehe I'm totally with you in the stalking *cough* tracking down thing

My husband used to curse Shun. He was a quite serious about it. Once he even said that Shun is gay to make me mad. And I was like "I can't possibly know that, but even if he is what's your problem??" so he shut it. And then I threatened him that if he doesn't watch a J movie with me I would be really annoying to him and so he agreed. So we watched Crows Zero with Shun and he totally loved the movie and Shun. So I took my revenge Thank god he is not pushy cause if we had to quarrel about the fact that I watch J drama all the time it would be frustrating!!

My boyfriend doesn't know about my little..ahem, HUGE addiction to dramas yet since I don't normally open up the topic. But my phone's wallpaper is Jun Matsumoto, my lappie's Hiro Mizushima and my ringtone is Okaeri, from Zettai Kareshi so I guess I have given him enough clues already.

He cannot make me choose between him and dramas because I have watched dramas before I met him so there is simply no way I can give it up. :P

Haha, hooray to you making your husband watch a J movie. And whew, thank the heavens for Shun's acting skills! He must have been uber cool in Crows Zero (I know, I know, I will watch it soon, promise) to have your husband like him as well. ;D

I thought we need hotten up the page a bit..

Spoiler

[skoubri]

Damn it acidalia-san! I was almost able to do a proper serious conversation without letting my fangirl spirit rise and look what you've done!!! After that hotness how can I continue?? *nosebleed* *faints*

I need to continue the hotness!

We haven't mentioned Satoshi Tsumabuki have we? Shame on us! I first saw him in Nada Sou Sou... What a movie!

Spoiler

How about Miura Shohei ?? I first saw him in Koizora as Nozomu and I immediately spotted him!

Spoiler

To those that haven't seen Nana the movies... Even if you don't like the storyline or you don't have time, you MUST watch this. The reason has a name and it's Ryuhei Matsuda...

Spoiler

@silvermyst your boyfriend has his clues, all he needs to do is put the pieces together And yes, you seriously need to watch Crows Zero!
