AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shit i'm so crazy over Stand Up!! now!!!!! Feel like buying it but i'm scared i won't watch it next time.....how how how how how????? It's quite sweet & funny...
It starts on a silly tone with the main characters Shohei (aka Sho chan), Kengo (aka Ken Ken), Koji (aka Ko kun) & Hayato (aka Utayan) being christened the Dote Boys (virgin boys) by a bunch of gangster girls in their school. A childhood friend, Chie, comes to their town for a visit.
Sho chan is a nerd who rarely asserts himself and is seen as a Mr Ok. He has a major crush on his English teacher but unknown to him, Chie nurses a crush for him. Ken Ken, although attached, is still a virgin cos his girlfriend is unwilling to do it with him until they enter university. Ko kun is the captain of the soccer team and has no lack of girls interested in him. However, he is unable to express himself properly in front of girls. Last but not least, Udayan, though not bad looking, he has a bad reputation of being desperately horny so his fate is sealed as a virgin.
And so the scene is set for the summer of their 17th year - one that is full of ups & downs as the 5 teens mature on their take on love & sex.
I feel that Ninomiya, Suzuki Anne & Narimiya acted well. Nino was very convincing as Sho chan, with his pants waist-high and everything. Suzuki Anne was a very convincing Chie as well. She was suitably unladylike during Chie's pre-makeover days. Narimiya livened up the show as the desperately horny Udayan....who's very hyper/exaggerated & childish & quite a loser...oh well...
I felt that this show very realistic. Like, the 4 guys don't always triumph. Actually, they're always quite loser lah. Their characters are also very believable, like, i can observe quite a few nerds, blatantly horny pple, pple who dunno how to express themselves in front of the opposite sex. Shit. These traits seem to describe me. Ok change topic: One thing that seems fake is.....honestly, this bunch of guys are too shuai to be losers lah!!
The show is also very telling abt how youths feel lost as they transit to become adults. Like, for all our wilfulness, we're just in the process of finding our direction in life & gaining experiences......so sometimes adults should juz let go of us. But sometimes, we just have to take things as they come and don't worry (abt getting laid) so much. As Ken Ken told Utayan & Ko kun, "Yukkuri otona ni narou. Just become an adult slowly."
Other lessons include "Do it with someone you love", "Perfect love is after doing it, u feel like wanting to protect the other party even more";"Only do it if u can make the person happy"; "If u wanna do it, must spare a tot for the girl & use protection to prevent her from getting pregnant", "A regular girl with a good heart can get guys too"...etc
Comments on technical stuff.....Arashi's "Kotoba Yori Taisetsu Na Mono" (the thing more important that words) is damn nice!!!!!! Also, Nari, Yamashita & Oguri Shun's clothes are damn shuai!!!! Esp Nari's - black netted singlet over a neon pink singlet; colourful, patterned pants; purple t-shirt (never tot i'll like purple on anyone); plastic baby doll earring; sleeveless white shirt with gazillion holes over a dark coloured sleeveless top, etc.
Soundbitez...
Ken Ken:
"Yukkuri otona ni narou."
Sho chan:
"chanto suki na hito ja na kya"
(when i do it) i want to do it with the person i like
To Chie - "kono saki zutto issho ni iru kara"
(I'll always stay by your side )
At the beach, just before sunrise - "Don't do it cos you want to, do it cos you want to be with that person."
Ko kun:
Utayan:
"I'll definitely choose love.....but if circumstances are different, i'll choose friendship..."
Last but not least, the one line to sum up Udayan's character -
"Ai......sore wa....SEX."
(Love is.......SEX )
