youthful days

well.. i've been hesitating to come write in my blog cuz i wanted to wait til i finish my latest japanese drama, antique before coming here...

i'm now finishing the show... 3 more discs to go and it's over... and til now.. i've been enjoying the show entirely... totally... absolutely! the fact that it's adapted from a comic makes the whole show very very interesting cuz of how some parts are presented...captions will appear on the screen.. depicting on some of the feelings of the characters.. but right now.. let me do some introduction.. although no one may be interested but.. heck.. go somewhere else if you aren't hahaa

kanda eiji(takizawa hideaki...with very very nice coloured hair) is a talented boxer who's an up-and-coming star in the boxing arena. unfortunately, all the battles has caused damage to his eyes and he had no choice but to leave. (ah..sounds just like what tsuyoshi dohmoto faced in to heart)...while he was thinking of what to do for the rest of the days.. he came across this cake house, which was operating even at midnight.. curious, and being the ardent cake lover he is, kanda then walked into the shop and was immediately mesmerized by the wonderful cakes.

turned out the shop-owner, tachibana keiichirou(kipei shiina... looking surprisingly good here...surprisingly) has just transformed this previously an antique-selling shop into a cake house (hence the name), despite the fact that he hates cakes ( ah.. turned out he was kidnapped when he was young cuz he was very rich.. and was fed cakes everyday for two weeks.. eewwwww).

and the star of the shop, also the master baker is the.... mysterious ono yuusuke(naohito fujiki... so in theme with the mysterious, melancholic master.... oh my god). despite his good skills, he has often been given the sack by all his previous bosses ( have yet found out why) and despite his goooooooood looks, he has trouble dealing with women... whenever a women approaches him.. he will totally freak out and run away. ( how cute)

and then there's izuka momoko (koyuki... looking really sweet here.. compared to love complex), a sports reporter who wanted to do a sports feature on kanda but end up falling in love with yuusuke when she saw him for the first time.... (yuusuke came out of the kitchen.. forgot what he was doing but then when he wanted to walk back in, he and momoko exchange glances and ... haha.. the caption then was ...a woman shot in the heart by the arrow of love.. cute)

ah.. i think i'll just intro these few people first... anyway.. momoko and yuusuke is soooo cute! the funny stuffs inside the show can only be appreciated when u watch it.. haha... i love the part when yuusuke was saying it doesn't matter whether he fall in love in the future and momoko gets so angry... cuz he reacted like that due to a very painful love experience ( he fell in love with his sister-in-law when he was younger). and momoko told him: " for the sake of your brother and your sister-in-law, you must try again!!!" kanda and yuusuke was quite shocked to see her so agitated. then she said: "i must cure you of your fear. ok...i'll be your partner to practice. let's go for a date." and yuusuke was in such a shock... he said: "oh.. ok... thank you for your help. "

haha... sooooooooo cute.
