You don't really define others when you judge them--you define yourself.
|
|
|
The title to Nishikido's rumored drama should be Yankee-kun to Megane-chan, not Yankee Kimi to Megane chan. It's probably based off the manga of the same name. I love the manga but I just can't see Nishikido as Shinagawa (the main character) at all!! I wonder who Tanaka Koki will play, I don't see him as any of the other guys either.
