Where's my samurai, Ryo-Chan?

4 comments

NEWS member Nishikido Ryo will star in a movie called Chonmage Purin, being released this summer. The movie is about a samurai from the olden age, time slipping to the present and working as a pâtissier.

Being the huge Ryo fan that I am, I'm pretty excited for Ryo getting his first leading role in a movie. However, I'm not looking forward to him having chonmage hair. But he is time slipping into the future so he probably won't have that hair for long, assuming he has it at all. I am excited to see him be a pastry chef though. Ryo in a chef outfit would be beyond adorable. I'd also love if for some reason he'd cry again. Just because his crying scene in Last Friends just about killed me.
Besides Ryo being in it, it seems a little lame. He'll probably act like Inuyasha essentially like a caveman at first. They'll probably also be some attempt a humor that just isn't funny. Since I don't find Japanese humor funny at all. And if I know anything about movie cliches, he'll fall in love with some random girl and leave everything behind for her.
I'm not too happy that this movie is way too similar to Miyavi's movie Oresama. I know Oresama wasn't the first movie to travel through time but still. Ryo's traveling to the future, Miyavi traveled to the past. Ryo's gonna be a pastry chef, Miyavi started a band. Perhaps Ryo's character will take up soccer while he's at it.
I expect a Ryo solo theme for this movie! Jin got one. And Yamapi gets them for drams. It's only fair. I also demand Edo no Temari Uta II be played in the movie! It probably won't though. But it seems pretty perfect. How many songs out there are really about the Edo period? I don't listen to enka so they're could be dozens.
