kusuburu jounetsu nimou uso wotsukeyashinai!
you can spend this whole series going oo thats thingy from something and ooo thats him from something else... what was that... ok i'll help you out:
# setsu is played by juri (the prince of tennis movie, a few eps of kabachitare
# sowa is played by yagami ren (godhand teru, one ep each of buzzerbeat,
unubore deka, and gokusen 3)
# kai is played by kiriyama renn (cafe daikanyama, the prince of tennis musical,tadashi ouji no tsukurikata, kamen rider w, boys love2)
then later through the show up pop a few more familiar faces:
# komyo is played by kotani yoshikazu (anego, yuuki, kamen rider agito, boys love 1 and 2, the prince of tennis movie)
(haha my phone just went off playing the theme tune to tokyo ghost trip -
Jonetsu My Soul by surface)
# ryu is played by takiguchi yukihiro (takumi-kun movies, bimbo danshi, tadashi ouji no tsukurikata)
# the reaper is played by shindo gaku (happy boys, guren onna, ah he crops upeverywhere i cant even be bothered)
# then you have baba ryoma (takuki-kun 3) playing isuzu now he looks so different in tokyo ghost trip i wouldnt have recognised him at all if i hadnt looked him up.
# sakamoto naoya and sakamoto kazuya play the sakamoto twins (what a stretch that must have been for them) they were also in fuma no kojiro with shindo gaku.
thats almost everyone, there were loads of cameo parts as there was a different spirit and spirit's family each episode and theyre all from other stuff but i dont have to name em all right?
one i will mention as he stood out for me, (he is so great in everything) the comic genius and fantastic lisping underbite of nasubi (densha otoko, miracle voice, atashinishi no danshi, kamen rider w)
ok thats the cast. phew! that took ages. really its only 13 episodes i swear.
the premis is this:
# three brothers been kicked out of their big old proper house
# they belong to a big old proper family
# they have spirit contacting ghost whispery type powers
# kai is a kind of priest (he calls his robe a battle dress! hahahahah)
# sowa and setsu can walk between realms (as long as theyre together ...aw)
# all sowa thinks about is meat and setsu
# all setsu thinks about is meat and sowa (heh its almost boy love its so funny)
i realised i have a real thing for kiriyama in jeans and trainers.
they meet ghosty people, they try and fix ghosty people problems, they cant pay their rent or eat proper food, theyre literally chased around by girls, and end up with a house full of extra tagalong family memebers oh and also a tagalong living spirit.
its a bit weird.
i liked it though. it wasnt particularly serious, sowa had me giggling quite a lot, and kiriyama renn does his soft spoken cute smile type thing all the way through so its not a chore to watch.
i liked all the stuff with sowa when you find out what the deal is with that weird flash back setsu has at the beginning of the first ep. i kind of figured it out anyway from kai's watch and the stuff with that living spirit dude that stays with them and why setsu and sowa were verging on boy love, but i did like that arc of the story.
the end was a bit lame but really the whole show is a bit lame so its fine. i liked it anyway. i watched it twice the year i got it whenever that was. its a good time waster and one you could watch happily all in one go.
