Japanese Actors and Actresses is something I’ve thought about writing for awhile now, because I find it interesting when I find actors in different series playing different roles. I’ll update the category here and then, so be on the lookout..!

Daito Shunsuke (d-wiki) - the first drama I saw him in was Nobuta. wo Produce. He played Tani, who got picked on by other people and blamed Shuji because Shuji didn’t notice. At the time, I thought he wasn’t that great an actor because he was very over-dramatic in the few scenes that he was in; I didn’t really think that much of him. Literally years later, which was recently, when I was watching Hanazakari no Kimitachi he awhile ago, the talk of Sano Shin was surfacing between Umeda and Izumi and I wondered, “Gee, I wonder who plays Sano Shin.” Then they had the magazine scan of him smiling with a medal around his neck, and I went, “It’s Tani from Nobuta!” After I stopped watching Hana Kimi, I started watching First Kiss, and in one of the episodes, Mio meets a flirt, who, coincidentally was also played by Daito Shunsuke. This got me thinking, “How can he be in two drama series in one drama season,” but I guess it probably won’t be a problem because one of the appearances was as an extra. Even more surprising, I started Oishii Proposal, and was also surprised in finding out that he is a worker in the restaurant that Suzuko works in. And just today, when I saw the first episode of Himitsu no Hanazono, I noticed that he was one of the workers for Kayo’s new office. I find it funny because it looks like he’s in everything I watch *lol*.
