When I first started watching dramas, I instantly fell in love with him. His acting is one of the purest I've ever seen. I loved him in HYD and Kimi Wa Petto, but I really fell in love with him after watching him in VS Arashi, his personality is adorable and it's refreshing to see what he's like as a person and not only in dramas. I laughed because of him in Kimi Wa Petto, I fell in love with him in HYD and I cried for him in Myu no Anyo Papa ni Ageru. I can't even begin to describe how much I appreciate this actor, but I hope he will continue to bring us all lots of joy in the future and that he never gives up his acting career, plus he's really cute when he sings too.

i'm a lil bit opposite to u. i didn't fall for him automatically from dramas. i liked him in gokusen, thought he was hot for sure and wanted to see more of him. then i saw him in hanadan and i hated his character. but seeing hanadan helped introduced me to arashi and their music and variety shows and like u i fell. lol. from d no arashi where his DoS personality started to shine and also learning how protective he is over the group, to their recent variety shows like vs arashi(my personal fave) where he shows how athletic he is. he really is the leader and very caring but his hard demeanor won't let that show too often. except if u've watched most arashi variety shows then u learn that he is the big baby crier of the group. :) he is a good actor. if u disagree i suggest u watch smile. i haven't seen all his dramas/movies to date...yet but i'm definitely a fan.
and epi 1 of lucky 7 was good.
