A Letter, A Lookalike and A List
Feb. 4th, 2008 12:38 amThe Letter
I just had to do this for that part in Shukudai-kun #68. The now infamous Nino-gets-dumped-by-a-six-year-old part.

This is the image of a smug fellow after learning that a six-year-old girl wants to marry him. (...Ok. After typing that, something sounds wrong about the whole situation somehow.....)

This is the six-year-old's letter.
Letter translation borrowed from sumoboy (in italics; regular font style in brackets = my additional comments):
Thank you for inviting me to the concert. Please change your hairstyle. You look more handsome with short hair. (ROFL.) If you cut your hair, you will look the most handsome. (At which point Nino says: "So then, now who is [the most handsome]??") I want to marry you. Because you did not change your hairstyle, now I like Sakurai-kun!!

The highly-amused Sakurai-kun.

Nino: Oi! OII!!
Poor guy. Bet he feels really annoyed that he didn't cut his hair earlier now.
I find it funny how he glances off at the staff as though it's their fault Kikuchi Momoko's daughter rejected him. ^^;
To verrry roughly translate the part that follows:
Sho: Somehow, I'm sorry! (You don't sound very sorry though, Sho-kun XD )
Nino: But how is this... if she says that it's because Sakurai-kun's hair is short. As opposed to mine (not sure aboutt this line). Then isn't this guy's (Ohno) hair the shortest of all?
Kikuchi Momoko: Yes.
Ohno: Does she not know my name?

LOLL
Riida, Riida... Sometimes you do say the funniest things. XD
The Lookalikes
I was looking through my Shirota images folder one day and saw this:

It felt familiar - like I've seen that look somewhere before. And then it hit me.

Project Runway 4's Christian Siriano.
Ahahahahah!
Not the most flattering picture of Christian, but I'm too lazy to go through my PR4 episodes just to take a screencap of him. He's definitely the most entertaining character of the season (and one of the most talented), even though he's annoyingly arrogant sometimes.
But really... The glasses are practically the same, and the hairstyle is similar too! XD (Of course, Shirotan's much better looking. No doubt about that. Much much taller too. Christian's kinda short. I suspect he's about Ohno's height or shorter.)
The List
(Yay for alliterations :P)
twistedhalo04 tagged me, so...
Not gonna tag anyone in particular, but feel free to go ahead with it if you like. :)

twistedhalo04 tagged me, so...
☆ Each blogger starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
☆ Bloggers that are tagged need to write on their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
☆ At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
I'm going to emphasise "random facts" :P So let's see what I can think of off the top of my head.

I'm going to emphasise "random facts" :P So let's see what I can think of off the top of my head.
- I think MatsuJun is a good actor but only a so-so singer. In my opinion he sounds good with certain types of songs, but in general, he's... so-so.
- I maintain that Sho is not as unathletic as everyone says he is. He's inflexible and definitely not good at all sports, but if the guy can play football/soccer a fair bit and is actually able to run kinda fast, then I think you can't call him totally useless at sports. (I will admit that he can't draw though.)
- I'm getting stuck on 1 Pound Gospel in spite of myself. >.< Kame seems to be as good an actor as I've heard.
- For some weird reason, I find myself liking Koyama Keiichiro of NEWS. *scratches head*
- I think Nishikido Ryo is kinda good-looking.
- Sometimes I really thing that Aiba needs to have his brain scanned properly to check if it's aged at the same rate as the rest of him. :P But I guess that's what makes him adorable. hahah!
- My birthday present to myself was two books by W. Somerset Maugham. (How many of you actually know who I'm talking about, I wonder? ^^ )
- I... am still not done watching Bambino and Yoiko no Mikata. -__-"
Not gonna tag anyone in particular, but feel free to go ahead with it if you like. :)

I love Ryo-chan, he's kinda my JE niiban, with Jun being the ichiban of course.
I like Kame when he's in a drama.
I really don't like Jun's voice that much (but love him nevertheless).
I also like Koyama, though mostly I like him when he's with Shige. He definitely has his 'moments.'

Date: 2008-02-17 06:15 am (UTC)I think Jun's speaking voice is okay, but his singing voice... Could use some more work XD
no subject
Date: 2008-02-17 06:29 am (UTC)Ditto re: Jun's voice.
no subject
Date: 2008-02-17 06:33 am (UTC)Agreed, agreed!
(I think I have a bias towards anyone who is supposed to be good friends with Jun... Like Takki and Toma and Ryo and Oguri Shun. :P )
no subject
Date: 2008-02-17 06:38 am (UTC)LOL. That's so true! I'm beginning to wonder if all Kansai kids are raised like that!
Anyway, i love k8 now, they're so endearing. And they're songs really make me happy!
<I think I have a bias towards anyone who is supposed to be good friends with Jun...>
LOL. So true! Same goes for me. Would you know if it's true that Jun and Shun shares an apartment right now? If it is, that is such an Ikemen Paradise, ne? Haha.
no subject
Date: 2008-02-17 07:35 am (UTC)I guess it's a sort of stereotype for Kansai people - loud and funny XD
Yes, they're really endearing! Agree about the songs too. (especially Sukiyanen Osaka)
I don't think it's that they're sharing an apartment... Rather that Oguri is staying in the same apartment block/area as Jun is or was staying in. :D (But close enough to an Ikemen Paradise for me! )
