are you sure you cast a right person?

Before I began ranting, let me remind you again and again (tho I think my loyal readers of this blog may had it known already) that I am a Tobikko and to be specific if I had to pick who's my favourite member, I can't pick one. Instead, I have two favourite members and they are Yamada Ryosuke and Chinen Yuri.

smile all you can because after this angst coming up. *smirks*

And ... I am still new to 'Ansatsu Kyoshitsu' slash 'Assassination Classroom' fandom. Be it manga, anime series, OVA or even the upcoming live action movie. 

When the cast list for 'Ansatsu Kyoshitsu' live action movie was announced in August 2014, I am having mixed feelings as a Tobikko. Seeing more and more members joining Chinen in the Cinema Club (when you are reading this, Nakajima Yuto is currently filming his debut movie 'Pink and Gray' that slated to premiere in cinemas next year) made me happy because finally! JUMP is going to cinemas!

But I came across this comment in one of the articles in AramaJapan and trust me, I cannot help but to agree.

BUT! Bear in mind that at that time I had NO IDEA about Ansatsu fandom. Okay.

So I browsed mangafox.com, try reading the said manga online and while reading, I imagined it with the already announced cast for the live action movie. Also try imagining how was it like for Chinen Yuri to be Shiota Nagisa. 

I had been Tobikko since 2009 and knowing that any JUMP member taking challenging roles in dramas, movies, drama SPs, heck even stage play is actually spelling 'fresh start for adult!JUMP'. Yes, who does not like your bias taking roles that he never done before, huh? That is called versatility, right. When you talking about JUMP members do dramas and drama SPs, of course you are imagining them taking 'student' roles, ALL THE TIME! Boring~ less challenging at all! 

Even Hikaru's role in IDN and Chinen's role in 'Sprout' also considered bleh~ to me. 

Speaking about Chinen, he had done 'bad boy' role ever since he guest starred in 'Yukan Club'. But it was 'Saikou no Jinsei no Owarikata ~ Ending Planner~'s Ihara Hayato that bring new definition of 'bad boy role' to Chinen and trust me, he is killing the role so asdfghjkl~. I say that was a turning point of his acting. While Yamada is still being a student (and detective, I must add) until recently ended 'Kindaichi Neo'. He had not reached his turning point of his acting yet, but on 21st March 2015, it will be a turning point for his acting resume. 

Now back to the pics I attached. I read the manga and this is my rant. 

Yes sir, I totally agree that it somehow wrong to cast Yamada Ryosuke as Shiota Nagisa for that movie, considering this is his first time in movies plus he is the lead in the said movie. Chinen should be doing Nagisa, considering he too suits the role of the 'girly but got undesirable bloodlust' character. 'Girly-look' is Yamada and Chinen's middle name anyway. *shrugs* XDDD

just to emphasize, Yamada came up first and Chinen came up fourth in 'Goo's Most Beautiful Johnny's talent under 25' 

Considering the experiences, Chinen has more experiences in movies than Yamada. 

BUT! I also agree that they are casting Yamada for that role. Okay. No offence to those who wanted him to be Nagisa. He himself look like come out from the manga anyway. 

The thing is when it comes to eye candy and rating, Yamada has that 'talent' to attract the viewers to watch the movie. Chinen do have the same 'talent' okay, they are being hated once by fans because being too overrated during NYC era imho. And I simply don't agree with this comment down there, saying Chinen cannot act. HELL THAT GUY CAN ACT LIKE HOW COME HE IS THE FIRST ONE TO BE IN SILVER SCREEN THAN YAMADA? Tell me. Hm. *side-eyeing*

Alright, maybe he had been stiff and bland in some of his early dramas but he is doing better as the drama projects coming up, My favourite role of him aside in 'Ending Planner' was of course, in 'Hissatsu Shigotonin 2014'. Hands down! But please I beg you, do not.ever.compared.him.with.Yamada. That was the worst thing in JUMPsville you can do, ok. 

If you are being in the JUMP fandom long enough, you do know how much Yamada wanted to defeat Chinen in so many ways.  

The conclusion is, both of them suit the role of Shiota Nagisa. Just the production team had so many reasons why they pick Yamada Ryosuke than Chinen Yuri. Only they knew why they decided to cast Yamada to be Nagisa. They are professionals. Who are we to blame? Are you going to defy the professionals? They knew what are they doing. Let them be.

I am sure in 2015, Chinen will got himself another challenging role that sure shut you haters' mouth up from judging his acting skills. Peace. 

End of my rant. 

The video attached, I give credit to TokyoPop's official Youtube channel. 

Did we tell you that YamaChine is so suck with the term 'give up'?

Zekki: You said what? *glares*

*covers mouth*

I told you that there's no way Yamada Ryosuke, the so-called avid fan of Nube francais will be in the live action drama for the manga because really, that dude had to go back and forth between 'Ansatsu Kyoshitsu' filming and this one because it was so jam-packed and considering the location for 'Ansatsu' filming is in rural areas so it made 10 times harder. 

But like Chinen said in the mags, 

Chinen: He's currently doing 'Ansatsu', yeah. But he don't care. He still want to be in Nube tho~

And because Yamada is pretty according to Goo, Nube's director do know him well thanks to 'Risou no Musuko', and the term 'you can't defy Chinen whoever you are'. this happens. 

Yamada: owyeah~ meet my demon hand~

Catch Yamada Ryosuke guesting as Zekki, the ever so handsome Oni a.k.a demon in eps 9 of 'Jigoku Sensei Nube', this Saturday, 6th December 2014, 9pm JST only on Fuji TV. 

Warning to other drama makers: don't ever resist YamaChine. They do whatever they can to get what they want. Period.

Yamada: we did it, bae~

Chinen: I know right. Now go kill Nube students, you demon~

so, 2013 ish OVER, eh?

Yes, I know this is so late (again!) because my internet being bad since few last weeks of 2013, but there!

Well, officially 2013 is my last year being a student after somewhat 17 years wearing the 'student' title. Yeah. I am so going to miss the times when I go to class, sit in the desk, wearing school uniforms, being bishy, naughty, immature, involved myself in fights and laughs, hang around with friends, pestering teachers and lecturers and of course, burning the midnight oil in order to finish daily school works, assignments and courseworks. Also, creating, making and finishing PowerPoint presentations. *sobs*

That's it for my RL. Not bothering to elaborate more. Thanks.

However in fandom world, I am having mixed feelings. After Yabu's birthday, I am officially an admin for a JUMP fandom Malaysian base FB group. It was a quite tough job for an oldie like me since I am the third oldest and surprisingly the most active admin (I'm not declaring it myself, most group members said so) thanks to my schedule in which somewhat 'similar like a school student's schedule but not so similar since I am a teacher trainee'. Yeah. I have too much free time to fangirl. Just saying. And because I have too much free time, plus I am the 'event organizer' of the said group, I somehow created some wacky events with the last one is the simple one during Christmas. Not celebrating Christmas, but who asked JStorm to release JUMP's new single on Christmas Day, huh? Grrrr~~

Ah, JUMP.

2013 brings lots of shockers in JUMP fandom. First off, is (If I count right, it had been a year since) 'Mystery Virgin' come to music stores. Have I told you that Yamada Ryosuke alone brings everyone back to the yard, feeling eyegasm and eargasm all the time with his stunning dance moves and soothing voice?

Hey~ he is the brand new 'teenage soloist who conquered Oricon charts', ok. 'Mystery Virgin' overall sold quite a number, surpassing NYC weekly sales but half slaying JUMP's weekly sales. Half, I must say. Okay. Stop.

Next, is the sudden fanmeeting in Thailand. 'JUMP 1st Fanmeeting in Thailand'. Non-Thai citizens fans are sure jealous of Thailand once and for all. Especially neighbouring countries (read: Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Philippines)

The fanmeeting was done in Siam Paragon, ok. 

But, mind telling you Thai Tobikkos that we all are very grateful of you taking so much HD papapics. They are the best! Kudos! Also they too shoot their Vermont Curry CM in a whitey Thailand beach. Not Phuket, ok. Too far. Far enough to see Yamada and Yuto catching crabs in which most of their shippers mistaken one of their gestures as kissing. Gosh, Yuto is totally a flirt to Yamada in Thailand. Not that Yamada mind. Okay. Halt that!

Speaking about Vermont Curry CM, the background song of the CM, in which the title is a totally big violation to English grammar a.k.a 'Come on a My House' is set to be JUMP's 10th single. After 1 year and a half with no new single at all since SUPER DELICATE, they finally come out with their new single. Finally some Chinen appreciation. Uh-huh, if you believe in shippers's delusion, this is one way Chinen got his revenge. LOL. And who would not forget that one fine moment in YamaChii's shippers life, during Ichiban Song Show on the release date of the said single. The 'escorting princess' moment. Hmm~

You mean like this? Uh-huh~ this is what are we talking about. 

I said some Chinen's appreciation because he is the main chara in this song. And he will always be the main chara. In any songs. We go back to this again later.

After COAMH, members are busy with their individual jobs.

Daiki and Yamada flew to Malaysia for 'Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo: Gokumon Juku Satsujin Jiken'. (that will be in a separate post, won't post some frustrations and flails over these guys coming to Malaysia like, WHY THE HECK YOU DIDN'T TELL US? kind of.)

And speaking about Yamada, he got another 24-hour TV special project again after 4 years, through the role of a patient with cancer that needs him to wear artificial legs in 'Kyou no Hi wa Sayonara.' Ohno is the main actor. Yes. Ohno. The tandem irks Chinen to the max, really. I'm not kidding you. LOL.

Chinen: Let me just stay like this in despair because Ohno-kun didn't invite me for a dinner. And he invited Ryosuke.

Ohno: 'Kay~~ *pouts*

Yuto had his 5 episode of fame because 'Hanzawa Naoki' shattered the drama ratings and being the top watched drama over the summer season. He wasn't recognized there, in which some Tobikkos felt relieved to the max.

Nakanishi: well, let me just sit here and break the toothpicks then. 

Nakanishi: and sulking here alone. 

Nakanishi: Ah, you can't let me sulking eh? Okay then. 

Oh, Yuto had three dramas this year. Early that year, he was one of the casts in 'Share House no Koibito' in which his role is the heroine's brother and have a girlfiriend in the form of Kawaguchi Haruna (who, yeah, the new 'Nanase Miyuki', IMO).

Another drama is as a guest star in Kamenashi's 'Tokyo Bandwagon' in which he starred as a guy who his sister (played by Kojima Fujiko, you remember him being 'Ozawa Miyuki' right?) is having a son at a young age.

Speaking about 'Ozawa Miyuki', it reminds me of 'Sprout', and it reminds me of the lead actor a.k.a Chinen. Yes. 'Sprout'. 'The naive, kind, dense Narahashi Souhei' role somehow allowed Chinen to win 'Best Rookie Actor' award in TV Navi Drama of the Year 2012 on April 2013.  *clap clap* Credits to 'the arrogant, rebellious Ihara Hayato' role too.

Few months after, he grab a role in 'Yorozu Uranaidokoro Onmyouya e Yokoso' alongside Nishikido Ryo. Mind telling you, during this era, JUMP had said to be already in Julie Kitagawa's care and appeared in almost variety shows. Starting with Chinen guesting in some unknown variety shows, alone. I won't tell you much on how Chinen changed his perspective towards socializing here. Maybe some other posts. But, believe me, it's worth the wait.

Shunta: I'll wait. Better not forget your promise, ZRC-chan. Or I'll summon you! 

In other news related to 'variety shows', Inoo and Yabu also grab a job as a semi-regular in one of the variety show. (note: will find the title later). Their appearance in the variety shows are unexpected, especially on Inoo since this year also he graduated from Meiji University on Takaki's birthday. Good to see sharp-tongued Inoo back on screen after his infamous quote, "Friendship is about betrayal and being betrayed." Ouch!

Yabu, on the other hand, had got himself busy with butais as he was among the casts for '40 Carats' and currently a part of 'Johnny 2020'.

As the year about to reach the end, more blissful updates about JUMP coming out. They graced the second Kindaichi drama SP theme song with Malaysian-themed 11th single 'Ride with Me'. Again, Chinen is the chara here. I mean it. He already pushed Yamada to the back. HA.HA!

Before RWM even get themselves into the stores, JUMP made an announcement of another single in conjunction with Hikaru and Inoo's new drama starting this 20th January entitled 'Dark System: The Battle of Love' in which Hikaru is the main actor and Inoo is one of the supporting actors. The single was said to release on 5th February, entitled 'AinoArika/Ai Sureba Motto Happy Life'. It also included brand new songs from both subunits, in which 7 will also have another Burbon Jelly CM and BEST having another 'S' song.

Last but not least, it was announced that Takaki will have himself two days of fame (when this post was written, his drama already started, and his SP drama had already aired) in which he had himself two drama offers. A drama special together with Takizawa Hideki entitled 'HAMU Kouan Keisatsu no Otoko' and a serial drama with Ohkura Tadayoshi entitled 'Dr. DMAT'. Both roles are small, however, how are you going to resist fireman!Takaki and computer genius slash policeman!Takaki? Hm~~~

So, that is all for JUMP roundup for the whole year 2013. Hopefully after being under new management, JUMP is ready to grace new challenges, grab new roles in dramas and make new musics. As for me myself, hopefully 2014 will be another jump start for a new life in the job world. Also wish for happiness in my private life.

and start another tale of the glutton and the foxy...

Yamada: Oh no, you did not! I agree ok!

Chinen: *chokes a laugh*

I own nothing but the post. (c) to all GIFs and pictures owner I am using in this post. 

practically everyone knows that red means sexy ...

... and when it comes to the 'everyone's-already-turning-20-years-old' Hey! Say! JUMP ...

I have no words. This is the first time I felt speechless over a JUMP PV. Honestly speaking, I am really not a fan of this song and it will still be like that. However, I am liking the PV to the max. LOL! Kajiura Yuki must be proud.

Kajiura Yuki, fyi, is nothing related to anything from JUMP or 'AinoArika'. He's one of the best anime song composers in Japan. Most of the time he performed in a hall, in which the place is being used for this PV shooting. 

Now, please perform at Sydney Opera Hall or Petronas Philharmonic Hall, for real!

'AinoArika' is JUMP's 12th single and it was set to be the main theme for TBS Tuesday midnight drama, "Dark System ~The Battle of Love~" starring Yaotome Hikaru and Inoo Kei.

The single will release on 5th February, so save your angpows! Watch the short version PV here before someone take it down!

p/s: like usual, OkaJima being so sneaky.  I don't even know where they are. But for now, let the picture speak.

Yamada: Yes, I'm gorgeous. Your arguments are invalid. *smug face*

(c) to the picture, GIF and video link's owner. *staring at Yamada's GIF*

I seriously think there is/are people who really stalking me....

... in a good way.

If you come here for JUMP stuffs and had in mind that I am a certified Tobikko, please be aware that I am also a fan of some fandoms too.

And one of them is a CLAMP otaku. Specialized on Cardcaptor Sakura and Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles. I have some posts related to them in this blog, so feel free to check it out using the tags related. If it is not in English, use Google Translate. *winks*

As stated here in my fic blog, (yes! I am a fanfic writer too! But mostly boy x boy fics.) it had been a dream of mine to write a fiction based on the genres featured in TRC and CCS. Ever since I started becoming their otaku. I realized it is a very tough work with my limited English vocabularies to write this genre. I even had to refer to the mangas to gain some ideas and inspirations to write at least a one-shot with this genre. At least one shot. On 25th April 2013, I had managed to write a one-shot fanfiction based on this genre. Sounds late because at this moment I am already a Tobikko. However, I had write a crossover fic, in which implied two fandoms I was and currently in now. It's like a dream come true for me to be able to write a TRC based one shot fic using JUMP members as the characters. Check out the link provided for the said fic.

During the process of writing the said fic, the thought of having either TRC or CCS as a live-action drama or movie started to linger around my head. However, knowing the fact that if there is any CLAMP manga being adapted into a live-action drama or movie, it's kind of quite hard to find the suitable actor / actress to play some roles in the manga because in my opinion as an avid CLAMP otaku, the characters these four amazing ladies had drawn and created is far too perfect to be portrayed by ANY actor /actress living in Japan. In 2012, WOWOW had adapted xxxHolic into a live-action drama. Because I am not quite following the manga, the anime and the drama, so I just take it with a grain of salt. I am managed to check out the actors in the drama and somehow, it was less my expectation. Ok. Maybe I will consider great job picking Suzuki Anne as Yuuko. *shrugs*

If I were given a choice which one I would like to see a live action adaptation between TRC and CCS, I would say TRC. No specific reasons but I remember I have not see any JDrama makers try fantasy genre for their drama aside 'Yokai Ningen Bem'. TRC is another CLAMP manga and anime I would like to see a live action adaptation. Somehow, I had been thinking, if ANY actor in Japan I HAD to pick to portray Li Syaoran / Syaoran Fujitaka, it MUST be this person.

You know who is this. 

And guess what. There is a person who share the same thoughts with me.

pic credit to J-Drama Confessions

Note that the choice is based on the statement, "If I HAD to pick." Because I am aware of the fact that CLAMP boys are TOO PERFECT to be portrayed in a live action. Please spare my life. It is my opinion only.

I pick Yamada Ryosuke not just because he is my ichiban. There are lots of reasons why I pick him. All the reasons are physical appearance reasons because I do not want to talk about his acting skills. If you want me to talk about that, I will keep calm and throw you a DVD box of 'Risou no Musuko' for you to watch. Simple. 

Yamada himself as certified by most Tobikkos and some non-Tobikkos, are just like coming out from a shoujo manga. Do I need to spam his pics here as a proof? I don't need to do that. He had looks. Good looking one. His current hairstyle make it just perfect for him to be 'Syaoran'. Brunette and short hair. Just like 'Syaoran'.

Height? I am aware of the fact that Yamada is among the three 'Smurfs' in JUMP. With his height at about 164 cm (source: NYC photobook 'COLORS', 2013) he may be not your pick to be your Syaoran. But...

164 cm to me is tall, actually. Do not be deceived by those group photos. I am sure you all were deceived by the photos. People who see him in person (note: Thai fans and their HD papapics, thank you) will agree with me. Syaoran is the shortest (minus Sakura) in their group too. I assume his height is at about 165 cm - 170 cm like that. (the point here is Yamada has long legs, thank you *bricked*)

So, to Yamada Ryosuke, please don't worry with your height complex because if this franchise made a live-action, most of us want you to be 'Syaoran'. Thank you.

And for the rest, I leave that to you guys. Tho personally I think Fay's character suits Inoo Kei well. *winks*

Justice at the age.

Psychologically, maturity is not defined by your age but define by your encounters with other people around you, your experiences during good and bad times and your new lessons every second breathing on the planet. That's how maturity being defined in psychology.

However, every person living in this world (even me myself) who had no idea what the heck is psychology is, has different definition of maturity. And so, it depends on them on how to portray 'mature'. Like, what did the script done to Nakanishi Eiji in the drama 'Hanzawa Naoki'.

Nakanishi Eiji (portrayed by the lanky one of the twin towers in Hey! Say! JUMP, Nakajima Yuto. *oh yeah, we won't let go of that fact, ok!*) in 'Hanzawa Naoki' was described as a 25-year old banker, Hanzawa's sidekick, and already working in Tokyo Chuo Bank for two years. Was assigned to get a loan from Nishi Osaka Steel and end up the said company undergo bankrupt and hold a debt of 500 milion loan to the bank, in which his supervisor a.k.a Hanzawa Naoki was fully blamed for the loss.

So I watched the 2-hours long first episode of 'Hanzawa Naoki'. I, like any other Tobikkos, we watch this just to enjoy how Yuto act as an adult, precisely a 25-year old banker. But as I watched the episode till the end, I just can't even with Nakanishi's line. ALL OF IT.

I mean, yes, he is inexperience when it comes to deal with the company manager for the loan but age-wisely he did not have a stand. Or let's rephrase. The script that given to him just too weak for him. At the age of 25, obviously when you are already in a job world, you had to be firm to yourself. Not making other people take advantage of you. Two years working experience. I see nothing special on how the script wants Yuto to portray a 25 year old adult. So, anything that you are not pleased when seeing Nakanishi Eiji on action, that's the script wanted. I do not deny the possibilities that they do change the script on set but yeah. That's how I felt.

Anyway, some quick review about this drama.

'Hanzawa Naoki' is a SUPER SERIOUS drama. No wonder it was aired on Sunday. It's to prevent Monday blues, lol. Yes, serious enough but as some of you know, this drama is an adaptation from a novel with the same name. So, I guarantee, when you watch this drama, you felt like you are flipping each and every page of the novel itself. It's like bring the feeling of some US dramas like 'The Firm'. I can't help but to stan on this drama. But I don't like SUPER SERIOUS drama so let's see how long I stan over this.

If you like these genre of drama, don't forget to tune in to TBS today at 9 pm (JST). 500 million is sure a lot. How would you think Hanzawa will cover up that?

About Yuto's performance in this drama, well, I can say, he's just awesome as he is. That is all.

Thank you for considering my review on 'Hanzawa Naoki'. Don't take it seriously. It's my POV anyway.

Putting the number '2' in front of your age means a LOT!

It's 2013. Someone was anticipating this post since 2009. 4 years? Gawd. Whoever it is, there. I made the birthday post today after 4 years. *sigh*

Look, Yamada Ryosuke maybe is my bias but the only birthday post I managed to make in this blog is Chinen Yuri. Double-standard much? Or maybe just because I am already in love with Chinen after his major breakout performance in 'Sprout'?

p/s: the blog owner's pen name is ZRC-chan a.k.a Zarel Ryosuke Chinen for OBVIOUS reasons. Until now she still can't choose in between Yamada and Chinen.

Wait! Why am I rambling about other people in this post when the major subject here is the Golden Boy itself? But Chinen is co-Golden Boy so, it counts?

Kindaichi: NO!

Okay, fine. Why is Kindaichi answering it? *tilts head*

Yamada: Because THE Yamada Ryosuke is busy...

Yamada: ... with his PSP?

Okay, don't drag me too far young boy, you are no longer TEEN anymore.

See the number '2' there on your age?

Yes! You are 20 year old this year. Don't you realize how many people are waiting for the day when you turned 20, young boy? Being 20 means...you are officially legal in some countries that isn't Japan. Actually in some countries too, you are already legal. You are certified 'legal' in Japan next year. More people are waiting for it, young boy.

Thanks to your poor eyesight, you aren't able to see clearly how your fans react when you are on stage, acting seductive, sexy, and showing your half-naked state. But you know your fans like it, (you stalk us on the Net, we know!) so you keep doing it for..6 years since the day you were assigned with 'sexy image' during one episode of Shounen Club. (go find it, IDK which one, but I do know that episode exists!) 

You are also certified as JUMP detective for obvious reasons. Tantei Gakuen Q, Furuhata Chugakusei, Hidarime Tantei EYE and recently, Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo. That explains everything. But according to your ex-classmates, you are average. You self claimed that you can't do baseball, soccer, marathon and relay. (read: Johnny's Sports Day 2012)

How was your Korean, young boy? Are you a fan of 'Running Man'? LOL! Have you imagined yourself being one of Running Man's guests? We all know you got yourself lots of Kshow, Kdrama and Kmovies (maybe a full-length album of SNSD? *bricked*) stuffs on your storage disk on your electronic devices, thanks to your sisters who are KPop fans too. We all know that you watch the show online too, just like us! (IDK which translation but he did mention when he was shooting for Kindaichi in Hong Kong, he watched 'Sprout' online. Yes! That 'Sprout' drama, fellas!) Did your sister bugging you for taking Seungri's autographed photos during your Kindaichi shooting? Or maybe you are the one who begging Seungri for Taeyang's private LINE account, in which Seungri agreed to give you with lots of conditions that IDK what. 

Though your hairstyle change every IDK what period of time I should describe it but it was certain that you change hairstyle more than one time a year LOL, your face being moon face, self claimed by yourself few times a year, there is one thing that never change on you. You know your own goal to be the best. You know you are still lacking behind when in fact you are far away then other talents your age. You are being passionate with being an idol as if the trait runs in your blood (or we should say pregnancy taboo is so real because your mother go to Kinki Kids's concert when you were inside her womb. You know, the power of mother's prayer).You still the humble Yamada Ryosuke we had known since Junior days. You know how to work smart. 

But, one thing I sincerely ask from you. Please don't make your own goal pressuring you. Your bandmates are scared of your serious attitude, you know. Don't restrict yourself too much, young boy. Life is too short to be serious most of the time. 

And so, Happy 20th Birthday Yamada Ryosuke. I hope Takaki pranks you again in the concert. Or maybe it's just Chinen. 

pp/s: Get a romance drama, boy! FOR FCKING REAL, GET A ROMANCE DRAMA! If you had to be the second male in a triangle love, it's ok. Unless if the first male is Chinen, then you had no choice but to retreat.

Chinen: Three kissing scenes, Yamada. THREE KISSING SCENES.

Yuma: Can you beat that?

Yamada: I still dance like KPop idol. You know how that thing got girls' attention.

Chinen: You tell him, Narahashi-kun.

Souhei: Sure thing, Chinen-kun. *smirks*

Daiki: 2 out of 3. You lost, Yamada.

Yamada: Fiiiinnnnneeeee~~~

WELCOME TO THE CLUB!

Apparently after Arioka Daiki and Chinen Yuri, another JUMP member already submit his application to 'JUMP members Who Got His First Kiss On-Screen Club', and was approved!

Welcome to the club, Nakajima Yuto!

It started with some chat in the library, at night...

Then a hug...

I wish I was Haruna. So damn lucky you girl! *jealous*

Then a look, an apologetic look, I am sure of that...

Did I just saw her tears? 

And then he lean down...

Yes, he's leaning down, bishes! Now, how many girls want to be Haruna right now?

WTF IS ON YOUR MIND, CAMERA-SAN! WE WANT TO SEE THE KISSING SCENE UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL, BAKA! 

One more time~~

Kaoru: I just kissed a Johnny. *giggles*

Nagi: What? You never kissed a Johnny before?

Kaoru: Nope. You want some more?

Nagi: No, no, no! Don't get too close!

Jelly much at Kawaguchi Haruna? Hopefully you guys do. 

See more in Share House no Koibito, Thursdays, 9pm JST at TBS.

I am not going to cover this one as (up to date) only Yuto got work for the whole winter drama season. But this kissing scene, THIS FCKING KISSING SCENE! Is just gorgeous, sweet and tender just the way it should be. And I have no complains about this two being a pair in this drama (tho I like Yamada/Haruna's chemistry in Kindaichi) because they are just flawless actors. You guys know how great these two when it comes to acting, period.
