The story of "Ryumaden" is told from the perspective of Yataro Iwasaki, played by Teruyuki Kagawa. In other words, if the first episode of this drama is said to be Hayato Mizuna, then the second episode must be Teruyuki Kagawa.
However, in addition to Kagawa Teruyuki, there are many heavyweight actors in "The Legend of Ryoma". Minakami Hayato met them one by one in the following time and left an impression on each other.
There are also many acquaintances among them. For example, Kodama Qing and Sugimoto Tetsuta are old friends who have worked together for a long time in "CODEBLUE". These two played the roles of Minakami Hayato's boss and senior who often helped him in "CODEBLUE" respectively. In "The Legend of Ryoma", he becomes his father and brother, which is quite appropriate.
I don’t know if fans of “CODEBLUE” will feel funny when they see this scene.
In addition, people like Kenta Kiritani are also familiar faces.
In addition to these old faces that are familiar to the audience, there are also some new faces. For them, no matter how big or small the role is, being able to appear in this drama is considered a successful step.
For example, Maeda Atsuko, who won the first place in AKB48's first general election some time ago, got a small role named "Haru Pig Sakamoto" in this drama.
Akimoto Yasushi mentioned this matter with a sense of pride in his tone. After all, only a year ago, AKB48 was almost on the verge of failure, but now, who can meet him and not praise him.
Akimoto Yasushi, who once again created a successful idol group, was extremely humble in front of Minakami Hayato, even though Minakura Hayato repeatedly stated that the idea of a general election was not his idea.
Considering that AKB made a lot of money for him and the eldest lady, he couldn't do anything more than verbally deny it, not to mention that Akimoto Yasushi's team also contributed a lot to the previous meet-and-greet event.
Because of this, when Hayato Minakami was asked to take care of Maeda Atsuko in the crew this time, he couldn't refuse.
"Hello Hirosue-san, my name is Maeda Atsuko, and I am a member of AKB48."
Seeing her serious bowing, Mizuna Hayato could only gesture from the side: "Center of the idol group we collaborate with Akimoto-sensei, please take good care of her."
Hirosue Ryoko raised her eyes and glanced at him. She wanted to tell him not to speak too intimately on such occasions, but she couldn't speak directly, so she could only smile and said to Maeda Atsuko: "I have heard of Akimoto-sensei's combination, please Please give me some advice.”
However, Minato Hayato's savior came soon. From the corner of his eye, he saw a familiar figure coming in from the door. His eyes lit up, and he raised his hand and said, "Baa-chan, here, here."
"Ah! Brother Hayato!" Meiyu Nagano ran over with his short legs on his face with a look of surprise, his black ponytail dangling behind his head.
Running in front of Mizunakura Hayato, Nagano Meiyu opened his arms slightly, then quickly retracted himself and stood still in front of him.
Minato Hayato smiled, opened his hands and picked up her small body.
Turning around and showing Nagano Meiku's eyes narrowed with joy in the direction of Hirosue Ryoko and Maeda Atsuko, Minato Hayato smiled and said: "And this one, Nagano Meiku, wants to play Ryoko when you were a child, so I have to ask you a lot. Take care of me."
Originally, she was overjoyed to see the cute little girl Hirosue Ryoko being showered with maternal love, but she immediately panicked when Minato Hayato shouted "Ryoko".
She quickly glanced around with her peripheral vision, then eliminated the ignorant little girl, and set her sights on Maeda Atsuko.
Fortunately, Maeda Atsuko just blinked and looked at them with big eyes, without any intention of speaking or any special reaction.
Minato Hayato ignored this and continued to say to Hirosue Ryoko: "Baa-chan's acting skills are the best among the kids in our company. She is the star of Stargaze. You must help train her."
Nagano Meiyu covered her face with both hands, and her voice was muffled but her joy could not be concealed as it floated out from between her fingers: "That's what Brother Hayato said!"
...
The details of the exchanges between the actors will not be mentioned for the time being. "The Legend of Dragon and Horse" is a feature-length production with a very long shooting schedule, so it is impossible to meet all the actors in the first script reading meeting.
After all the child actors with the most troublesome workflows arrived, the script reading meeting officially began.
As usual, Hayato Minakami, as Ichiban, was the first among the actors to stand up and introduce himself.
Looking around, there are actors who will accompany him for the next year of filming, and there are also actors who will quit midway.
In addition to the actors who have not yet met each other and are gradually joining in, the one-year "long" filming journey of "The Legend of Dragon Horse" is about to begin.
...
A few days later, on the set of "The Legend of Dragon and Horse".
The child actors' daily shooting time was limited, but after a lot of bumps and bruises, Nagano Meiku and others' scenes were finally completed smoothly.
Minakami Hayato took the time to shoot some of his own clips these days. According to the director, it was to get a feel for the atmosphere and get into the zone first.
Apart from these non-busy shootings, Hayato Minato has basically been paying attention to his "rising star" Nagano Meiku.
Mei Nagano's acting potential is indeed very good. It seems that she is gentle and quiet and doesn't care too much about the dusty and even dirty scenes and costume props in historical dramas.
Oh, it’s not so much that I don’t care, but that I’m becoming more and more relaxed.
Even a little too liberal.
In addition to occasionally taking time to go back to shoot commercials and do some necessary work this time, Mizuna Hayato will stay on the set for most of the next year, so as usual, he must bring his pet dog Nai Nai with him. .
"The Legend of Ryoma" was mostly filmed in places with a strong natural atmosphere in the countryside. How could Nao Nao be stable in such a place? Even Nagano Meiyu, who often played with her, was a lot wilder.
By the way, maybe it has something to do with Tao Tsuchiya, who played Sakamoto Ryoma's sister when she was a child.
A very lively girl, even from the sports department, left a deep impression on Minato Hayato.
And after they finish filming, they will start filming the scenes of Hayato Minakami and Ryoko Hirosue when they grow up.
Hirosue Ryoko plays Kao Hirai, who is historically considered Ryoma Sakamoto's first love, a man of both talent and beauty.
Her dress in the drama is always a beautiful kimono, just like today, the light pink kimono has no extra color except for the white pattern. The smooth black hair is styled in the traditional Yamato Nadeshiko hairstyle, and the unadorned, delicate and refined face is clearly revealed.
There are many people who claim that they have never gotten the beauty of Hirosue Ryoko, but her advantages have never been the same as the standards of beauty recognized by the world.
What is unique about her is her temperament, which is as cold as a clear spring, which suddenly penetrates into your heart at a certain moment. Her extremely transparent beauty is like hibiscus emerging from clear water.
"She is indeed the last beautiful girl of the 20th century."
Minato Hayato stared blankly at Hirosue Ryoko's side face.
His expression fit perfectly with Sakamoto Ryoma, who was stunned by Kao Hirai's sudden confession in this scene.
He looked longingly at Hirosue Ryoko running away, and at this moment the director happily shouted: "Pass!"
"I got into the mood so quickly. It seems that everything will go smoothly for the subsequent shooting~"
Seeing that the leading actor was in such excellent condition, Otomo Keishi did not hide his happiness, and became even more energetic, working hard to make "The Legend of Ryoma" into a different Dahe drama.
