nakatsu's funny/cute drinking scenes. =P

i almost missed out on the scene that nakatsu was drinking milk in episode 3!! remember earlier, i was asking what episode that scene was in. well, turns out where i watched hana kimi, the 2nd part of episode 3 was missing, so that's why i ended up not watching those 15 minutes until i was done with the whole series and the 1 hour special! haha. (oh, the special was fun to watch, every1 musta had a lot of fun filming this series!! aw, i will miss them!!)

but it's actually kinda nice 2 have a few nakatsu scenes left 2 watch even after i'm done with the series!! that was such a CUTE scene, him in deep thought and then asking kayashima what if he IS gay? then crushing the milk carton. lol! that was when i noticed that lots of times that nakatsu is drinking something, that scene would turn out 2 be really funny/cute!! i've screencapped some funny/cute nakatsu drinking scenes here. hahaha!

about the Ikemen Paradise photo book

i finally got it in the mail recently!!!
i was a little disappointed with it, but
mostly i really like it. =) it's really cool 2 have this as a kinda "souvenir"
from the IKEMAN PARADISE. =P

i took a pic of it above with a pen, so u can know how big/thick it is.
and the 2nd pic, just a some really nice pics, and u can see maki helping
toma button up his costume!!! aww!!! but in the series, he never actually wore the
romeo costume!!! i guess they cut it out!! =/

here's some of my comments about the book:

-i thought there would be a lot more behind-the-scenes/fun pics taken of the cast
throughout the series, but most of those kinda pics are only from episode 8!

-every1 is SO photogenic, they all look PERFECT in the close-up, individual pics! especially maki and TOMA, of course!!

-it's cool 2 have a short profile 4 each person in the cast, now i know how old they are. didn't know that the actor that was kayashima is also only 19, like maki! wow. i loved his character!!
such a sweet guy.

-there's a lot of interviews in there, but i can't read japanese. =/ i expected there 2 be a lot of text that goes along with the pics, just wish i knew what they were sayin'!!!

this is off-topic, but....

i just uploaded 3 very nice montages from the Tohoku Travel Blog show that i've been watching on Jadeworld recently. each is only about a minute long, but very nice scenary and background music, too. check it out here, the 3 newest videos. =)

(UPDATES COMING SOON, pls check back!)

made this 2 use 4 my signature at AF, but i forgot that it's too big!! had 2 cut the 2nd pic. =/
