Nostalgic Over Zenkai Girl and Bringing More Cute Goodies

Zenkai Girl has been over for a month now, but I find myself actually missing it. Like missing a friend who has moved away and I can’t hang out with anymore. While the drama wasn’t perfect, it was always captivating to watch. Since ending the drama, Nishikido Ryo has officially left NEWS to be part of Kanjani 8, while Aragaki Yui has jumped right into filming the live-action Ramna 1/2 SP. Gakki and Ryo are two of the sweetest smiles in J-ent, and seeing them actually have insanely great chemistry in ZG was like getting an unexpected present. Have some promo pictures from my ZG collection, as well as a video clip showing Ryo getting interviewed and BTS shots of ZG filming (with English subs). Ryo is so shy that it wasn’t until the last day of filming he got up the courage to call Gakki by her nickname. And she immediately calls him Nikki. I dies of the cute.

The actress who plays Urara-sensei is a host for a television program and she interviews Ryo.

‘I dies of the cute’ yes, you and me both.

OMG! He has the most beautiful smiling face. Love hearing him talking in Osaka dialect. So much softer and sincere. Hope to see him in another dorama soon. Or is he in something this winter season? Anyhow, thank you, Mrs. Koala 😀

I’m so glad I watched this show….well, almost…stopped mid-way at episode 9 as it got kinda draggy but this reminds me that i should forge on and finish it!! I remember when (due to your rec) I started watching this show….i was like, “oy!! he’s the lead?!” but am so glad i gave this dorama a chance…Ryo made me swoon!! heh…Actually, come to think of it all the lead actors of the shows (OG, ITWY, ZG, and OHSHC–>Daito Shunuke in this one, he’s plain perfection!!) you’ve been recommending have been making me swoon, sigh, and squeal a lot!! 😀 Take a bow, madam!!

Aww, why so cute Ryo?

I love that he is okay with people not understanding him 100%. That’s a very mature thing to say.

Ryo seems so shy in person! So adorable. Best part about Ryo is when he smiles, I love how the sides of his eyes have that wrinkle. Thank you for sharing this BTS vid, I didn’t know I would love this OTP more. The way Ryo was very nervous about calling Aragaki Yui by her nickname is just too cute. And he did call her “Gakki”! and she called him back as “Nikki”.. <33
