As per my previous post, this is the guy playing Genji.





(ETA: And the exorcist/priest guy decked Genji at one point. I rather enjoyed that.)

Chained up in my basement, of course.

A girl can dream, can't she?

No he's not! He's right here, in MY icon!

Okay, clearly we're talking about a different Takeshi. I could not, for the life of me, figure out why [livejournal.com profile] smillaraaq wanted to chain "Beat" Takeshi up in their basement.

I...um...kind of have a bit of a thing for Beat Takeshi, too. He pushes the same sort of Sexy Older Tough Guy buttons for me as Jean Reno.

(My mental basement is large and contains multitudes.)

Bleh, he looks like a sarariman.

"Sennen no Koi" took the wise tactic of casting a Takarazukienne. XD

They did a good job on casting the Rokujo Lady, however. She was a woman Of a Certain Age, but still striking, so you could see at a glance that she would have been alluring to Genji. However, it was totally unbelieveable when she said that she knew she and Genji wouldn't be together forever because of their age difference ... I wanted to say "WHAT age difference?" Because however old that actor is, he is *not* the hot twentysomething Gneji was supposed to be. :P

Not my mental image of him at all ;___;

He must have other things going for him though....

OK you got me curious, so I checked it out on the web. THe Onmyoji played my Takenaka Naoto, a very good character actor, is Ashiya Dozan (Doman's grandson). Dozan is a rival/sometime evil/opponent of Seimei. It depends on the story. As far as I read, Genji was first looking for Seimei but couldn't find him so Dozan "helped" Genji in this story.

Oh, there are better Genji's than Hosaka(the guy in the picture) but they were played by Takarazuka women...others are black and white old movies.
