First Look at Upcoming Lucky 7 with MatsuJun, Eita, and Matsushima Nanako

Oh ho ho, what do we have here? When did Matsumoto Jun grow up? I mean really grow up, not sorta pretend to be a grown up such as in Natsu no Koi wa Nijiiro ni Kagayaku where he romanced Takeuchi Yuko. And when did Eita get so hot? I’m doing double takes here, and it’s mostly because both guys clearly will be going shirtless (and kickboxing) while getting in each other’s faces in the upcoming Lucky 7, co-starring the hotter-than-ever Matsushima Nanako and the interesting to watch Naka Riisa. If this is a hit, Arashi is really nailing it for me these days, since I also loved Sakurai Sho‘s recent Fall dorama with Kitagawa Keiko.

Lucky 7 is about a 7-member detective agency in Tokyo that investigates cases while clashing internally with a variety of personality and personal issues. MatsuJun is the newbie while Eita is the calm and collected senpai of the two. Lucky 7 will also reunite the formerly brother-sister duo of MatsuJun and Nanako, from when they played Domyouji Tsukasa and Tsubaki, respectively, in Hana Yori Dango. With this first fabulous trailer, Lucky 7 has shot up to the top of my J-dorama to-watch list. If the chemistry between MatsuJun and Eita rocks, this could be the next great buddy dorama since Shun and Hiro in Tokyo Dogs.

I can’t wait. Looking forward to Jun and Eita kicking ass. I love that we get a Domouji reunion. Plus a new Arashi song 🙂

I also loved Nazatoki wa Dinner no Atode. Sho was freaking adorable and I always love Keiko. Hopefully if we get a special she will actually solve her own cases instead of Kagayama.

Matsushima Nanako was awesome in Kaseifu No Mita. The best Japanese drama of 2011 with final ratings over 40%. It will be hard to see her as someone other than Mita the housekeeper.

Onee-chan and Tsukasa! 😀 I love these two together and individually. And Eita’s so adorable, I doubt any woman can resist him.

  I second this comment. I love the entire cast but I’m mainly watching it for Oizumi Yo. I thought I was the only one ;o;

Matsujuuuunnnn!!!! I LOVE HIM! He’s right up there with Yamapi as my favourite J-actors.
And Eita looks so hot here, especially as I just rewatched Nodame recently, he looks so different!

Um, Eita has always been hot. He was incredible in Soredemo, both acting-wise and super gorgeous, even with a bad haircut and looking like he never bathed, wearing the same horrible three outfits. Guy makes me swoon in a major way.

Agree with you on everything else. Nanako is amazing, it’s like she never ages!

Omg! I’m soo looking forward to this! All great casts! Aside from Jun and Eita, can I say that I look forward in seeing Oizumo Yo more? Hiihi. I just love him in Ogon no Buta. XD

Eita<33 I've been a big fan of him since VOICE (so cute and hot) and more so after Soredemo, he showed his talents in acting. Matsumoto Jun is great in acting but it's always his looks that bothered me, i'm getting used to it now though =p
Speaking of Tokyo Dogs, i kinda love it but i love it mostly for Hiro and the female lead<333 great cast. I miss Hiro already… please let him comeback to small screen!!!

You got me baited for this drama. Am on to episode 7. Excellent ensemble acting of a perfectly cast group of characters. This cast deserves a reunion. How is it that jdramas never last for more than 1 season? In the US,police/detective dramas can go on for several seasons, nay, years.
