Eita
Anyone else here like Eita?! I first saw him in Sapuri with Kame but I've seen a couple more things with Eita in them now and I love him almost as much as Kame!
Pics, anyone?
Pics, anyone?
Finally, a thread for Eita
i just love this guy. saw him in Kimi wa petto first and then orange days. but he was super kakkoii in sapuri that i could not take my eyes of him and as much as i liked kame, i also wanted Eita to go with the girl.
then i saw Tokyo friends for Eita's sake and i will watch unfair too. pitty that he always has a supporting role. i love to watch him as a main character.

I was the same in Sapuri, I loved him even if he was an *** to Ishida (gotta love the bad boys, right?!). I would have been happy whichever one she went with in the end. But for Ishida's sake I'm glad she went with him ^____^ But yes, I do love Eita, and I can't wait to find some more stuff with him in. I am currently watching Unfair!
°_^ I think so too! I think he's a pretty good actor! I noticed that first in Waterboys but I only got into him lately after watching Unfair. I liked him in Waterboys 2005 summer special too. In these two he is a little bit more than just "another" supporting actor, I think. Havn't watched Medaka or Orange Days yet (shame on me!)wuff wrote:I have already tired some members from the forum with Nodame Cantabile but Eita also appears in this jdrama. I love him. I think he has got a strange face with blonde hair but I think he plays his role very good.
I wouldn't put him in the "georgous idols" category because actually when I look at pictures he's not THAT cute. With Eita I think it's more in the way he speaks and movements and gestures. That's when I can't atke my eyes off of him. Do you know what I mean?
It's a pity there's not much information on the net
Here's the link to his Drama Wiki entry:
http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Eita
I tried out his official site (link given in drama wiki) but you have to register first... all in japanese, so I didn't do it...
Here are some pics of him, which I really liked (sorry, some are mine, but I don't remember where I got the others):

I too loved the character he played in NodameIssy wrote:i just finished Nodame Cantabile. great drama. Eita was so cool and kawaii in this show.
i still have to watch unfair. i have only seen 3 eps so far.
but i think, he looked so hot in sapuri. i did like Eita before but after watching sapuri, i really started noticing him as one total HOT guy.
But go, shush, to watch unfair! I really like that series and Eita is quite candy in that - plus he has to act in there quite a bit... intense story

One thing I notice though and it's sooo frustrating to us fans - can he kiss? I've seen him in love scenes and he just sort of doesn't move and doesn't get into it. I don't get it - I've seen his frequent costar Satoshi do excellent kissing scenes with Asian actresses but I don't know - I have yet to see a passionate love scene with Eita and an Asian actress in anything...wonder if we should have him kissing Satoshi instead;)

Only now saw your post about Eita kissing. This thread is so quiet...
I find that with a lot of Japanese actors in dramas that they are so impassionate/ not moving when kissing. It is often just a matter of pressing lips to 'symbolize' a kiss for the viewer. No feeling/no passion. Maybe that is Japanese culture.
There a a few exceptions. But Eita is definitly NOT one of them even though he is a very good actor otherwise. Maybe he is not comfortable with body contact in general. He always seems very reserved when he is seen in off-shoot scenes (no hugging co-stars goodbye at the end of a series etc)
Love the idea of Satoshi having kiss Eita.

i think he is shy in romance scenes and maybe still havent find the perfect co-star that have sizzling chemistry with him^^ in Unfair i really hope he will have hot kissing scene with Ryoko coz i luv those two together^^anamcara wrote:Only now saw your post about Eita kissing.

haha...Shibasaki Kou will kill him if he kiss Satoshi
Yeah, I think it's a reserved Japanese thing Too bad, I think innocence is nice, but - show some emotion in a serious love scene guys! We want to picture ourselves as the leading lady you're kissing after all:D
He does seem shy. There was a scene in Sapuri where the woman he was in love with fell asleep on his shoulder, he was supposed to stroke her hair, but he seemed so nervous about touching her - it's funny. But, it's also incredibly sweet at the same time that he's shy...ahhhh...I can cure him of that;)
Hee hee...I think before kissing Satoshi, he should first kiss Tamaki Hiroshi. I mean, if those two did a show much like Formula 17, I could die and go to heaven right now!

Oh by the way, there was a video clip of the cast saying goodbye at the end of filming Nodame Cantabile - everyone got a bouquet of flowers. Eita went up to accept some from Tamaki. Tamaki reached down and held his hand in both of his and then pulled him up for a quick hug - it was so sweet. I think those two are good friends. It's nice.

Eita is such an underrated actor!! His acting is so versatile! At first, I always looked over him because his characters are usually of the "side kick" / "nerdy / weird friend" personas. But I really started noticing just how good looking he really was in Suppli!
It's only too bad that he's usually overshadowed by the "bigger" heartthrobs in his other dramas:
Tsumabuki Satoshi in "Lunch Queen" & "Orange Days" <~ which is pretty ironic because the next person everyone looked at was Nari! Poor Eita...
Yamada Takayuki in "Water Boys"
Matsumoto Jun in "Kimi wa Petto"
Hiraoka Yuta in "Tokyo Friends"
Kamenashi Kazuya in "Suppli"
Tamaki Hiroshi in "Nodame Cantabile"
.................It would be nice to see Eita as the starring lead for a change.

can't believe that this thread has also been forgotten...
i can't wait for his new fantastic drama with uneo juri: last friends.
woah, his hair is very funny in this show, as well. but on the poster it became more fantastic:
pic is from the official site of the drama.
anyway: is it worth to watch Tokyo Daikushu? has he got a main role?

I love Eita, because he can actually ACT. He's not the cutest but he's so much more talented than a lot of the pretty boy actors in the lead roles. He's still in sidekick roles but it seems like he's been increasing his profile lately, if those cell phone commercials are any indication. From what I've read though, he has a reputation for choosing more edgy, indie roles for his movies. I don't really see that in his dramas, but if true, I respect him more for it.
I agree with you all that Eita is way too underrated. i always keep hoping for a leading role in a drama but it never happens :/...let's hope things change with the popularity of "Last Friends"
Is anyone following Atsu Hime? Eita plays a rather cute role in this one.
A movie with Eita I would like to recommend is " Memories of Matsuko" really touching...musical style.

I also agree with the "Eita" is underrated sentiment. While not the best-looking he's such a good actor and probably one of my favorite male actors in that age bracket.
I first watched him in "Waterboys" some years back, and right now I'm watching "Nodame Cantabile" and "Last Friends" and he's just a joy (along with Ueno Juri~~). I don't think I've seen him in a movie, yet.
I also love the fact that Eita almost consistently has the weirdest hair in dramas. <3

I actually also just started watching it because of Eita and Horikita Maki ...but the drama is unexpectedly interesting. I keep wanting to know what happens next..and until now Eita has been in every episodecounterfeitdreamer wrote:I have the 1st ep of Atsu-Hime but havent watched it. Is it any good?

How i love the oddness of Eita. It's too hot. I love his hairstyles lol.
Have you two seen Unfair yet? Another thing I want to watch just because of Eita and kinda also for Shinohara Ryoko.

-talks as she goes to download it- That was too convincing. His best drama, chemistry, and a surprise. Yeah i think I'll see that now. It looked really good, but I was always passed it up somehow.Salz wrote:Unfair is one of the best drama of Eita and his chemistry with Ryoko is fantastic and the ending is really surprising.......
u should check it out....
Eita oddness is making him more special and hot<333333333
lol So true. His uniqueness is hot!
His roles are really something else ..I kind of accidentally run into Eita in so many movies I didn't even know he was taking part in
In "9 Souls" he has a very small role but he is rapping in it ...soo hilarious
I really like the way he plays Takeru...actually the only reason I started to watch the Drama but it tuns out to be pretty good

Ah, yes, actually he's too perfect to play that role. I really love his humble touch to everyone in sharehouse. Also his soft smile. Aww God, he's totally made me melting.....cam169 wrote: I really like the way he plays Takeru...actually the only reason I started to watch the Drama but it tuns out to be pretty good
He's the best character in last friends, in my personal opinion...
yeah Eita is the best character in LF
he is super sweet and kind
i think his best scene yet is in ep9 with Juri
they both is fantastic together and have such a great chemistry
actually their chemistry is getting stronger and stronger each ep
but i still cant get out of my head Takeru's scream from ep 9 preview
that ep gonna be such a heartbreaking ep......
i hope he is fine

watch him in "Loss Time Life" Story 1 - as Nakayama Haruhiko (Fuji TV, 2008) - he's very good in this 'quirky' show

I don't know whether this link has already been posted or not, sorry:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=sMrituBIXQM thanks a lot to hakuhis74 for the clip!!!
he has got such cute voice!!!
by the way I don't understand after playing in Nodame and Last Friends why is he such an
underrated actor???
I think these scarfs/shawls look good on him, for example on this pic and like in LF.

haha, trademark of him! yeah, you are right. he has such rich hair! I could caress them in every moment.
avieamber wrote:So far, i've only seen him in TF, Nodame and Last Friends. I hope to see him in more dramas and movies soon.
we (his fans) hope so, too. In Ueno Juri's thread people also find them great/pefect match together. I hope they will make some kind of movie, again in the future. Summer Time Machine I think wasn't a good one...
But! he was really cool in Unfair. He looks good in suit,

he is sooo different with this hair, isn't he?
I just watched it yesterday. Unfortunately Eita is only in it for a couple of minutes.
yes! he was so moderate in that time...Salz wrote:that his hair in Orange Days right???
but! in Orange Days he was singing that song 'Shanghai Honey'... and I love listening his voice.
me, too. in Suppli his role was distasteful to me.Salz wrote:i dun like his roles in Suppli and Dororo....

and Dororo? I have never seen such a stupid movie with so popular actors/actresses. and perhaps there will be a second and third part of this movie...
finally he got a real sweetie role. he usually plays the side roles of these love stories, but in this... and one more thing: he is wearing a ring on his index finger!!!Salz wrote:his coolest roles yet is in Tokyo Friend^^
