TITLE: SO UNUSUAL

ARTIST: skankfunk (Hideki Naganuma)

ALBUM: Kurohyo: Ryu ga Gotoku Shinsho Original Soundtrack

Sorry for that crap quality but I FINALLY GOT IT!! It did arrive on Tuesday at my Grandparents house where I live for uni. But since I’m at my parents for Christmas, I wasn’t there to receive it. So my Grandmother just dropped it off and now I’m happy~ I’ve been wanting to see this since the performance started in June as after seeing the photos and the dress rehearsal videos for this stage, this is what made me decide to start spreading the Sakiyama Tsubasa love and that’s why my page is the way it is today! ❤❤❤

So this character Shota shows up in Kurohyo ep.04 and I couldn’t stop staring at him, not only because he’s gorgeous but also he seemed so familiar. It took me a few good looks at his face but then it just clicked.

Kurohyo is a 2010 drama based on a video game I’ve never heard of (of course) about a street tough who is being blackmailed (say it with me) “for a crime he didn’t commit.” At least Tatsuya doesn’t *remember* committing it-- he was knocked out at the time, though there is a video that seems to indicate he is in fact guilty of multiple homicides in a shooting incident. This surveillance footage is being held over his head by some shady criminal-types who force him to participate in a series of underground kickboxing matches called “Dragon Heat.” Between bouts (which are implied to be life-or-death, as the losers are “disposed of” by their bosses), he’s racing to solve the mystery of who has framed him and why.

For a brief time last week I was simultaneously watching 3 Saito Takumi dramas at once and it was lovely (like his face).
