Kase Ryo, the guy who co-starred with Nino in Letters and with Sho in HachiMitsu, spent the first seven years of his life in Bellevue Washington. As in, my Bellevue. The city I consider my hometown because I lived there longer than anywhere else (11 years).
SMALL WORLD.
Wikipedia is one of the sites not blocked at work. I spent the first two hours browsing info! Did you know that actress who plays Torii-sensei on YamaTaro has a 1st degree black belt? Or that Clint Eastwood has 5 daughters and 2 sons? And that the reason in Letters that they had Saigo bury the general off-screen was because his body was never actually found?
:DDDD I LIKE LEARNING FACTOIDS. WHEN I GROW UP, I WANT TO BE A GAME OF TRIVIAL PURSUIT.
