Synopsis: Kaze Trio speculates why Sho is late. Ohno kinda knows why.

Ohno Satoshi is sitting on one of the concatenated chairs in one of the glass-walled boarding rooms in Narita International Airport. This is the closest he could get for a respite before the week turns into a whirlwind of concerts, tapings, photo shoots, and Nino’s constant ( Read more... )

I really like dramas set in the suburbs. No, I looove them. And Japanese suburban doramas take the cake away for being the finest ever! The palpable moods, luminous narratives, and for how excruciatingly intensive it goes to illustrate what happen inside houses with perfect paint and immaculately manicured lawns (or cramped up mansions, for that ( Read more... )

I  just finished finished Shitsuren Chocolatier! Matsujun is sooo dreamy! I kind of expected it to end like that. I wanted him to end up with any of the three women but I’m also fine with him not settling for any of them if that’s not what he really wants. I understand that. Because I don’t settle myself.

Nothing is more beautiful and rare in this world than Arashi sharing a common destiny. And my love for them, though as high and wide as the skies, will only be ever slightly hinted at.

I had to make a post to commemorate this day. After sleeping through the first episode a few times, I finally managed to marathon the remaining ten episodes of Yasashii Jikan on this very rainy day. Suteki na dorama! I'm still basking in its afterglow. Furano is a magical place; the snow like a glittering carpet of crushed diamonds. The ( Read more... )

Nino is such an unusual fellow. He declines a wedding invitation to the tropical islands of Hawaii, leaves his wallet at home when going out, has quite a number of middle-aged to elderly people for friends, makes no life plans. His interviews are so amusing. There's always an element of excitement I feel when I start reading them. Nino's thoughts ( Read more... )
