Lucky Seven

I just happen to stumble upon Lucky Seven. I got curious because I notice the lead actor of the dorama is Jun Matsumoto (yep the lead actor in Hanayori Dango Japanese Series and Movie) then I finally watch the first episode (even though it was 3 am in the morning and I have to go to work at 9 am, Hell! It's MatsuJun y'all! I just gotta watch it!).  

The opening scene of the first episode is rated PG 21. It was shocking to watch, because at  the beginning of the first episode, the scenes were Matsujun in bed with a half naked lady (no bra...) and in the midst of their conversation (still in bed) Matsujun grab her back to bed and  they both (French) kiss. WOW.. this is only the first scene, I'm seriously eager to find out what the whole series would offer!

I absolutely like Matsujun as an actor. For me, He is WAY better as an actor than he is as a singer. Well, let's just say, he wasn't born to become a singer. It's different though when he is acting. I felt like, he was always totally immersed with the role given to him. He could be a murderer, an arrogant youth, a mellow lover... you name it, I believe it! He could be anything. Because of this amazing quality, makes me think he is a better actor than Tatsuya Kimura. 


No offense, but Tatsuya's acting is kinda boring to me. All the roles that he had played, they all have similar traits. For example, his character in BRAIN is also similar with his character in CHANGE or HERO or PRIDE. It seems like he didn't even act in any of those dramas, He was just being himself, which I consider NOT ACTING!  I think Tatsuya Kimura is very lucky because he got good looks and get to play in a well written and headed by awesome directors - doramas, It's just too bad, he did not have the talent in acting though. 

Enough ranting about Tatsuya, Back to Lucky Seven. Although I only watch the first 15 minutes of EP 1 (I was finally tired and felt like sleeping), I think this drama is promising, it's different, unlike any other Japanese detective dorama I've seen before, which sometimes silly. Aside from that, Matsujun also look mature in this dorama and from my personal point of view, I think Matsujun is trying to leave his teen image behind and show it to his fans that he has grown up now and mature. This to me is the reason why I like Matsujun as a person lot, because I can feel that he is smart and wise beyond his age because he is willing to leave that teen pop image and embrace maturity. Not many artists in his age or even older ones would want to change their already good and popular image. However Matsujun is not afraid to do it. Kudos to Him!


I definitely would look at the dorama again sometime this week. I found this cool place where I could watch English sub Asian Drama/Movies. http://www.dramabada.net/
