Kamenashi Kazuya.
This man.
This is the man who I never get tired of. Who I flail over daily and think, there must be an end to this, but there never really is. This is the man whose smile won me over at first sight and still makes me stop and stare, each and every time. This is the man who laughs like a lunatic. Whose stomps and claps and scrunchy face make me grin like a fool. At that moment, we are matching pair.
This is the man who in some ways is forever a boy. Who has a fetish for skulls and making odd faces at the camera. Who flashes a peace sign whenever possible. Who coos at nyan-nyans and wan-wans with a baby voice. Who makes childish gestures and calls the siren of an ambulance pippo~ pippo~. This is the man who teases and flirts because the cheers and happiness of those who watch him are his drug. Who soars higher and higher with every shout. This is the man who tries his best because to disappoint is to fail.
This is the man with a huge heart. Who cooks curry in the middle of the night to surprise his co-workers. Who is weak to requests and will give his new clothes away simply because his juniors asked for them. Who, when noticing someone coughing on set, will casually get them a warm drink without being asked. This is the man who will cut into his own break time to make things easier for the staff. Who will always go along with the flow, even when he feels otherwise, because the happiness of those around him is happiness for him. This is the man who is known for putting others before himself.
This is the man who has an intimidating aura but is actually really lame. Who is more embarrassing than funny. Who makes nonsensical jokes that make me shrink into my seat and ask why, oh why is he still talking? This is the man whose sense of humour is like a train crash (less fun; more pain).
This is the man who astonishes me with his words. Who is so caring and compassionate, it makes me feel ashamed. This is the man who taught me there is no sense in hate. Who in a few words teaches me what I had thought I had learned long ago. This is the man who listens to calls with a willing ear and responds with honest advice. Who, in just in a few words, manages to say so much. Who speaks with a depth and wisdom beyond his age. This is the man who opens his mouth and I think please, oh please keep talking.
This is the man who is larger than life. Who buys expensive clothes, cars, watches, you name it. Who smells something wonderful, or so everyone who has chanched to encounter him says. The man who can wear the most bizarre ensemble and somehow make it work. The man who crushes stereotypes with his small hands and a wink. This is the man who you look at and wonder, how is he real?
This is the man who is nothing but real. Who eats his grandmother's rice for breakfast and says it is the best he's ever had. Who dotes on his niece and buys his brothers matching watches. Who grumbles at his dad for wearing his clothes and his mother for ruining his special jeans. This is the man who complains about his pet dogs being moody and not sleeping with him. The man who cries silent tears as the credits play, ending a sappy film. The man who says he is happiest when in the kitchen and laughing with his friends while he cooks them a meal. Who at times also needs to be alone and takes sudden trips to the beach. This is the man who is so real, it's unreal.
This is the man who lives outside the box. Whose performances do not only entertain, but enchant. Who puts in endless effort and sleepless nights to provide a show that will leave everyone satisfied. This is the man who pushes at boundaries. Who can't stand still on stage and strives to do something more and then something even more. This is the man who dares. Who inspires.
This is the man whose passion motivates. Who jumps into everything with a bounding, full-body leap. This is a man who understands his limits but challenges them nevertheless. Whose hands are spotted with blisters from practicing baseball swings. Who carries a sports paper with him everywhere just so he knows a little more. Who will shoot a scene multiple times until the best one is filmed. This is the man who is incapable of not giving his all. Who strives to becomes a better person. Who makes me strive to be a person. This is the man who is my role model.
This is the man whose birthday is celebrated by thousands of fans because they see him, this man. This man who is both a boy and a sage; a star and a dork; too good to be true but still true. This man who cares for others and is tenacious and strong and bows with the deepest respect. This man who, if he read this, would shake his head and say with a humble laugh, "I'm just me."

This man.
I kind of really adore him.
You know, just a little.
♥
(This is the man whose birthday is on February 23, who just turned twenty-five this year. This is the day thousands of fans wait for, because just a day after, the countdown begins again. This man; we look forward to how he will amaze us with each passing day, because he will. It's guaranteed.)

Date: 2011-02-24 06:15 am (UTC)Kame... I don't know why, but he just inspires the obsessiveness, doesn't he? Thinking of him and all he's said and done, it's so hard not to fall for him. My heart just swells ;__;
no freak out! just a tiny bit surprised. ;p Kametards are sneaky lol.

and yes, I'm very familiar with the achey happiness :( I was getting all squirmy while writing this.
♥______♥ the epic picspam is making you all spammy. me likes
the truth is that Kame wins at life (sdhajk that's like one of my all time favourite gifs. Kame being all fierce and happy and accomlished and the lights making him extra mabushii ♥)
distracting .gifties are the best. thank you, Moni ;__;

Date: 2011-02-24 07:12 am (UTC)I love how everyone's getting all emotional over Kame
thank goodness I'm not the only one ;___;and now I want a Kametard badge. I'd wear it everywhere. cuz Kame is just that awesome ♥and I couldn't let his bday pass by without saying something. I tried to contain it, but.... ;__;
*HUGS*
no subject
Date: 2011-02-24 07:28 am (UTC)Oh Kame. ♥ He's the one guy that managed to keep my interest for 5 years and going. No other fandom lasted this long for me (my short attention span can only last for so long...). And I can probably safely say that no other fandom will last this long. Ever.
I love reading up on every little thing I can find. ♥ Not only are his own words and interviews lovely, but all the mentions we get about him make me all ;; ♥ as well.
Seriously, major ♥ for him. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ My cold/flu/whatever this is isn't letting me think straight so I'll stop before I say something really stupid. xP
no subject
Date: 2011-02-24 07:53 am (UTC)Same ;__; I've come to prefer his interviews over clips of him just because he's more open on paper than on screen and I love learning about him as person. I would say it's not about the aesthetics anymore, but Kame is a beautiful person both inside and outside. The beauty can't be escaped. ♥ The best thing about mentions is that they're specific and yet consistent, so you know ppl aren't just sucking up. Those mentions always make me proud
and gloaty.asjkhkdjk I just came home with a sore throat and now my nose is getting all runny. I think I have a cold as well :((( *shares tissues* and now I hope I didn't make any stupid spelling errors, cuz yeah, headachey-ness does not bode well orz

Date: 2011-02-24 01:16 pm (UTC)I'd like to comment in a coherent way but I CAN'T *headdesk* because you've written all. I admire him at levels I've never admired a famous person before. I've never considered idols more than pretty faces before him. He's so inspirational I can't even. I should be ashamed to say I managed to go through part of the hardships I met in the past months just because I found myself thinking "Oh he wouldn't give up here. I can because he would say I can", because it's a childish thought... but after all, I can't feel ashamed.
You know, translating Maquia's corner is a "pleasure and pain" for me. Pleasure because I love that corner so much I can't even express it into words. His way of explaining things is so lovely. Pain because you don't know how many time I become teary-eyed reading Maquia's corner, or some deep interviews as the ones I translated for his birthday. I read what he said when he was as old as me and I can't help being moved and reflect on what on earth did he experienced to talk that way? Or I want to hug him saying that he shouldn't be afraid or sad or whatever, because he's just strong enough to overcome everything. And I think "He can't be real. He can't. Because if he's real and I can't meet him, it's just too painful. It's such a waste not to know him".
I can see some aspects of me in him - but his sides are more refined than mine. This is why I admire him so much. I would pay whichever amount of money just to have the possibility to talk with him just 2 hours in a cafè drinking something. It would be so inspiring T_T
Ok I stop here or I'll seriously become mushy and sappy and absolutely biased, more than I already am T_T and start to shed tears again X_X
This entry is just... ♥
no subject
Date: 2011-02-24 09:29 pm (UTC)Yes! I think that way too, all the time. Like, 'what would Kame do...?' and idec if it's childish. He's just such a strong motivator.
I can imagine. Those articles are already so potent when I read the trans so I can imagine how much stonger they must be written in their original language. English is so, so stiff and cold in comparison. I can see some aspects of me in him - but his sides are more refined than mine. THIS. I see so many bits of myself in him but he's just...greater? idk. :( dsahjkajsk I want a cafe date with him, too ♥
Lol, no worries, Isi. Kame bias is welcome here :) and we're all getting mushy and sappy anyway.

He is amazing. And yes, one of his best qualities is that he is so real. A very rare quality you could find in a celebrity, especially in JE. He is so real that it's so unreal just how real he is.
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts ♥
no subject
Date: 2011-02-24 10:56 pm (UTC)woah, that's a huge compliment. Thank you so much ♥
It's like he soars so high sometimes but is still somehow down-to-earth and normal, but never average. And you're right; this kind of quality is rare to find in an idol industry. and I'm just really glad to have found it ♥
