np. 滝沢秀明 – キ・セ・キ

..I’m having a nostalgic “watch-all-my-old-tackey-jdrama-dvds” -month here, in case someone hasn’t noticed. I can blame it to 24HRTV.
I think I got an overdose.. Anyway.

I want to hate this drama. And I have all the reasons to do so:
- This rides on Tackey being half-naked or drenched-wet, plus his looks.
- Tackey plays a bad guy
- The plot goes too damn slow
- Every time I think “yes, this is it, now it’s all going to work out”.. I’m wrong.

But when it comes down to it, I love this drama.
On the other hand, it is a typical jdrama, feisting on a really handsome guy’s looks; so I can’t really blame it for that. Second, Tackey does an amazing job playing the lead. I’m used to (and I want to) seeing him play the good guy, the hero rescuing everyone else. So it pains me to see him playing a wrench like this. But oh the intensity in his acting.
The theme song is the one he was supposed to debut as a solo artist with. キ・セ・キ, one of my absolute favourite j-pop songs. And the tie-in piano/violin-piece is pretty aswell.
As for the other actors, I’ve always had a soft spot for 忍成修吾. This was his first “bigger role” in a drama and now after seeing him act in f.e. YTM, I can’t help but feel even more drawn to him.

Screencaps? You want screencaps of 太陽の季節? From me?
Hell no.
I’m so not even trying to cap this one. I’ll give you a few though, later when I’ll edit this post. But as I said, the camera concentrates pretty much on Tackey’s body. And his face. Very many close-ups.
*sigh*
Not that I’d have anything against that.
