Not Optimistic


Well, I have to say I am not that optimistic about Mitsuhide Taiga drama.  The reason is the the boyish actor Sometani Shota.  The picture on the upper right does not look like a manly Nobunaga.  To NHK and other studios in Japan, Nobunaga was an Alpha male.  A manly man who was ruthless in order to unite Japan who was under constant chaos in the 15th and 16th century.  Nobunaga was a good looking guy, but manly.  If you want cast a pretty boy Takuya Kimura is a good choice.  He was casted as Nobunaga in the tv drama Tenka totta baka (The fool who conquered Japan).  Once you have seen the show, you will understand.    I would like to see Takashi Sorimachi play the role of Nobunaga again.

Nobunaga no tame!
