'Notorious' - an Okada Masaki MV (Chiisana Kyojin)

-


I agree with Twitter Biker Nagase who said that Yamada Haruhiko was the most gorgeous visual Okada Masaki has to-date. Masaki's Yamada Haruhiko surpassed all my expectations for him, both in terms of acting and appearance. Yamada is beautiful although imperfect. Sorting through Chiisana Kyojin for Yamada-related scenes is such a pleasing experience, that I'm very happy to produce yet another MV of Chiisana Kyojin here. I also included many Kosaka-san (Hasegawa Hiroki) scenes, hence I hope Kosaka Shinichiro fans will be happy too.

This time, I'm using Duran-Duran's "Notorious", for its lyrics seem to hit right on the spot of political and criminal justice corruption that is the core of "Little Giants". Twitter feed and Duran-Duran's lyrics are below the break.

Oh yeah, as I am now re-watching Seinaru Kaibutsutachi (2012), I just realised how cute Hasegawa-san was back then (he's more mature now, cos he's already 40 years old). The younger Hasegawa-san looks like a Japanese friend of mine (who is also very cute!).

Enjoy!








Notorious
by Duran-Duran

No-no-Notorious. Notorious. Ah. No-no-Notorious.

I can't read about it.
Burns the skin from your eyes.
I'll do fine without it.
Here's one you don't compromise.
Lies come hard in disguise.
They need to fight it out.
Not wild about it.
Lay your seedy judgements.
Who says they're part of our lives?

[CHORUS]
You own the money ;
You control the witness.
I'll leave you lonely.
Don't monkey with my business.
You pay the prophets to justify your reasons.
I heard your promise,but I don't believe it.

That's why I've done it again. No-no-Notorious.

Girls will keep the secrets (uh)
So long as boys make a noise.
Fools run rings to break up.
Something they'll never destroy.
Grand Notorious slam (bam).
And who really gives a damn for a flaky bandit?
Don't ask me to bleed about it;
I need this blood to survive.

[CHORUS]

That's why I've done it again. No-no-Notorious.

[CHORUS]

[CHORUS]

That's why I've done it again. No. No.
That's why I've done it again. No-no-Notorious.
That's why I've done it again. No-no-Notorious.
No-no-Notorious. Yeah.
That's why I've done it again. No-no-Notorious.
No-no-Notorious. Yeah.
That's why I've done it again. No-no-Notorious.
No-no-Notorious.

Taira no Kiyomori ep 50: Finale!

Shogun Minamoto no Yoritomo with his Higekiri sword I'm a bit sad that Taira no Kiyomori comes to an end. But I cannot always spare my Sunday evening or Monday early morning doing recaps, so perhaps it's a good th ing as well. Plus, I need some one to resume the English translation for me to really understand the fine lines in TNK. Anyway, b elow is the summary of ep 50 on NHK World Premium : Kiyomori is struck down by a febrile illness. Kiyomori appears before Saigyō, formerly named Norikiyo, as a wraith, and learns the meaning of his life through dialogue with Saigyō. In Kyoto, people rush to Kiyomori's bedside and bring up their concerns over their future. Kiyomori finally passes away. After the passing of Kiyomori, the fate of the Taira family takes a turn for the worse. Tokiko throws herself into the sea with Emperor Antoku in her arms, and the entire Taira family ends up being destroyed at Dannoura. At the bottom of the sea, Tokiko sees the members of the Tair...

Himitsu: Top Secret (2016) review

Okada Masaki as the disturbed Clark Kent, I mean, Aoki Ikko There are many things I love about Okada Masaki. His acting, his friendliness, his goofiness, his smile, his laughter, his hair (yeah, even his perm)… but most of all, I love his optimism and pure, utter sincerity. I posted earlier that Masaki’s name consists of two characters: 将 Masa (leader, future) and 生 Ki (life, pure). Together, 'Masaki' 将生 denotes 'prosperity'. While I’m of course glad that he prospers throughout the years, I’m more than happy to see that he still has that purity in him (as per the other meaning of 生), albeit all the attentions and success he receives. If I were him, I don’t think I could be that sincere. I will try to be sincere, but Masaki seems to just exudes that sincerity organically. His sincere and optimistic personality is made more pronounced after watching two of Masaki’s latest production: “Chiisana Kyojin (Little Giants)” and “Himitsu: Top Secret”. None of them are yet...

Itō-kun A to E: the Movie (a.k.a. “The Many Faces of Itō: the Movie”)

-

A little over three weeks ago, I finally realised that Netflix had been airing “Itō -kun A to E: the Movie”, under the English title “The Many Faces of Itō”. Just to see that movie, on the same night I finally renewed my Netflix membership. I’m glad I did. Itō was emotionally hurt several times despite being a jerk. I am amazed that such a shallow character became deeper in the hands of Okada Masaki. Although Itō is definitely not my favourite character amongst the many characters Masaki has played so far, I’m glad he took that role, because Itō – despite being a hopeless character – does extend his portfolio.
