He’s best in this angle so yea 😉

There’s no one who’s into jdrama or j-ent who would not know him..

Sota Fukushi  福士蒼汰

May 30, 1993, Ken-On Group 

yes, it’s his birthday  

誕生日おめでとう Fukushi~

He’s actually the one I noticed in Yowakutemo Katemasu first because he has this manly stature and just a few interactions with the female lead would make you “Kyun <3″ then eventually, I shifted to Ebato (YamaKen, yas) because of his cute expressions.. 

Maa, maa, we have to focus on Souta! 😉

Just like the other actors who made it to the male lead role, he was also part of the Kamen Rider movies.

Honestly speaking, I’m not that impressed with his acting, but you can see that he’s giving it his all well-appreciated and he’s able to capture the viewer’s hearts. You’ll be able to see his growth as an actor as you watch the projects he’s in. Listed below are the dramas/movies of his that I watched, chronologically after our fated encounter in YowaKate lol :

Sukitte Iina Yo

Koinaka

Enoshima Prism

Strobe Edge

As the God’s Will

Library Wars: Book of Memories (Souta in a bit military uniform *w*)

Amachan (Asadora-156 episodes)

Currently watching: Omukae Desu (yep, he’s getting better ‘cos I can see he’s able to portray the character well

Kyou wa Kaisha Yasumimasu and Starman has been stored in my files for long, might as well watch it when time permits or when I’m on to more Souta feels 😁 story-wise, it seems to be a good one.

Check out for more Souta goodies you may watch http://asianwiki.com/Sota_Fukushi

Thanks to him, everyone went gaga over 袖iクル  (sode-kuru) a new buzz-word that was popularized because of this Strobe Edge moment 😍

Jingi Irie 入江甚儀 

May 18, 1993 , Ken-On Group

Since I’m still watching Seigi no Mikata which he starred in, let me introduce you this cute boy who turned into a manly ikemen -- (yea, with that figure, you can’t say NO when I want you to meet him 😜)

He caught my attention in a magazine that I bought (’cos Arashi’s in the cover 😉) back in 2014 and I got his name, searched for him and Voila! 😊 though I wasn’t able to keep track of him so much, but then I watched Risou no Musuko and I was reminded of that cute boy I saw in the magazine 😤

I never thought he would be that comical 😂 surprised whenever he’s in a drama I’m watching ‘cos ironically, I wasn’t able to check his projects even if he’s a crush. 

Coincidentally, I was able to spot him in few of the movies/dramas I’ve watched.. (well, aside from those I’ve already mentioned above) 

Zettai Kareshi (2008)

Koishite Akuma (2009)

Gokusen Graduation Special (2009)

Gokusen The Movie (2009)

Strobe Edge (2015)

And I’m certainly looking forward to watch Pink and Gray when it’s already up!

I think I might do an Irie movie marathon one day.. I hope I’ll get the time ‘cos YamaKento’s been eating all of it lmao

The invincible ikemen in my life 

May 18, 2016 was the release of Arashi’s 8th double A-side single, I seek/Daylight. 

An Arashian that I am, of course, I won’t forget to introduce you these five for my #ikemenaday posts. 

From upper left to lower right: 

Aiba Masaki 相葉 雅紀 24 December 1982

Sakurai Sho 櫻井 翔   25 January 1982

Ninomiya Kazunari 二宮 和也   17 June 1983

Ohno Satoshi 大野智  26 November 1980

Matsumoto Jun 松本潤   30 August 1983

Yes, they’re all in their 30s. Still, an ikemen, who excel not only as an idol and a group, but individually, in their own specialty. 

By the way, Ohno and Jun has a drama that is currently airing and the single’s purpose is for its OST. 

世界一難しい恋  (The most difficult love in the world) and 

99.9-刑事専門弁護士- (99.9 Criminal Lawyer), respectively. 

Say Hi to my other  健太郎 😉 (Issei of Good Morning Call, Haru in Gakkou no Kaidan, Kurihara in Ore Monogatari, young Sakurai in Watashi Kekkon Dekinainjanakute, Shinain Desu)
