Ryutaro - Potato September 40 questions
Myself from 2 years ago was unthinkable! I was surprised that I did things freely without thinking (laughs) I get asked whether I am a romanticist or a pragmatist so I'd answer romanticist but maybe I wouldn't even know what it means. Also the answer for Q26.. I was someone whose feelings showed on my face and did not understand jokes.
