BECK (映画)

I am just really excited at the moment!!! They made a live-action version of BECK and I love BECK!!!!! I watched the anime before reading the manga, but I really like the story and the music. Just saw a trailer for the movie and the cast is pretty close to what I have in mind appearance-wise, as for the actual acting we'll have to see. Mizushima Hiro is Ryusuke, Sato Takeru is Koyuki, Kiritani Kenta is Chiba, Mukai Osamu is Taira, and Nakamura Aoi is Saku, and Kutsuna Shiori is Maho. With the exception of Satou Takeru and Kutsuna Shiori, the rest really do look like the characters. Koyuki is kind of wimpy so having Sato Takeru play him will be interesting for me to see. I think Maho is a pretty strong-willed girl, so while Kutsuna Shiori has the ideal look for Maho, I wonder if she can pull off her character. Mizushima Hiro definitely has the look that I imagined for Ryusuke, but will he be able to pull off a total bad ass who can speak fluent English? Maho can speak fluent English too so I wonder how mangled the English will be in the movie lol. If Tsumabuki Satoshi were younger, he'd fit right into the role of Koyuki lol. He always looks quite wimpy lol, and yet I still love him ^__^.

Well, other than acting in question, the look is pretty much perfect at this point for me. They all match what I have in mind for the live action, which is a first. I always have issues with at least one or two actors that I feel do not look the part, but oh well ^_^;;; (For instance... I am still not sure about Ninomiya Kazunari playing the lead in Ooku... but we'll see)

On a side note... I have been very obsessed with 8018 doujinshi lately, especially the ones by Yoneda Kou -- one of my newest fave mangaka as of early last year -- and I am searching the net like mad. It's so bad, I really should not be wasting my time like this, but I just cannot stop myself @_@ *sigh* I love Katekyo Hitman Reborn so much, it's kind of silly lol. Why am I such a sucker for shounen series? At first, I was stuck on 6927, then 8059, then D18, but now I'm just crazy about 8018. I really can't see 1880 even though I tried one doujinshi with the pairing in that way, but at the same time with Hibari's seme-like dominance, it is also hard to see Yamamoto top him, but I guess they're interchangeable. Mmm, why am I so obsessed with 8018? It is all Yoneda Kou's fault! If I don't love her work so much, I wouldn't be in this predicament lol. I blame her talent and storytelling skills! Just like I blame Yoshinaga Fumi for constantly distracting from life because her stories are so beautiful *___*
