HBD TSUYOPON!
YOU ARE JUST THE SWEETEST LITTLE THING. ;AAA;

This would've been on time if it weren't for crummy wi-fi on campgrounds :*
At first, I thought he was quiet and somewhat plain. It was difficult to keep my eyes on him when I was lusting over Shingo and LOL'ing at everything Nakai said... but as most good things do, he grew on me. And A Lot. I think that's the way it works often times with Tsuyopon, he's not the first one to capture your attention but before you know it, he's grown on you and you can't believe there was a time you thought he was boring.

As it is, all the members have a special place not only within the group, but in my heart too. Tsuyopon is totally no different and over this past year or so, I have fallen madly in love with this man-even if he isn't my bias there's no way nakai would let tsu usurp him anyway. Tsuyopon is just another testament to the boys' dynamics and the integral role he plays in SMAP, very well might I add. There's nobody else in SMAP who could be as oblivious he is and get boke'd at every corner; the fact he still gets shy on stage and juniors speak more eloquent than him (according to Shingo 8DD) are just a bunch of things that make him the absolutely adorable man he is.

I remember his Return SP on SxS being one of the things I'd watched earlier on in my SMAP discovery... ness? I definitely think that was a big help in shaping the way I felt about the dood so early in my love for the boys. It said a lot that I was so affected by his return and just totally relieved over the whole thing, despite the fact I'd only been into them for two months at the time, if even that. If it were anybody else, I don't know if I'd feel the same, but in Tsuyopon's case, I've never held the drunk&naked incident against him. Besides the fact it's actually hilarious and not  a big deal at all and Tsuyopon was right to ask, 'What's wrong with being naked' anyway? P:

BUUUUUUT. I had a point. And that was that I think he is just the most sincerest and genuine person ever. I truly believe, and it could be foolish but whatever, that the gap between his image and his real self, is really not that big. I definitely think this is true within SMAP at the very least. He's just always come off as being this sweet man who could have just as easily ended up becoming a salaryman instead. That's probably what draws me in the most, his humility and his ability to still be embarrassed even after all these years and just how close he really is to being like any other average person even if he is a superstar. ♥

Please don't even let me begin on his smile. HIS SMILE. Fuck lullabies, I'm gonna rock my babies to sleep with a picture of him smiling instead. It is singlehandedly The Most Soothing Thing The World's Ever Seen. And it doesn't feel affected at all and guuuuuuh, my brain turns into mush whenever I start thinking about it so I'm going to stop. I just hope he forever has a reason to keep smiling.

And you can't have a HBD Tsuyopon post without mentioning his acting. Because everyone knows that his acting is straight up legit' and he could drop idol'ing tomorrow and become an actor with so much ease. Except for the fact he'd probably never ever do that because he loves SMAP with all of his heart and probably babbles on about how much he loves the boys and is grateful for their existence with Shingo when they hang out sometimes what? me shipping shintsuyo? never. Pahaha, irrelevant derailment aside, he is the only member and one of the few actors whose works I go out of my way to see. I've made it my goal to watch all of his films/dramas/SPs before I die, and it's not something I would even do for say, Nakai, AND HE'S MY BIAS. P: His acting is amazing and his range is just, ridiculous! He can go from being a salaryman left to fend for himself and his daughter he's never learnt to truly love to a yakuza who works in a senior home to the sweetest glass blower you've ever met in your life who falls in love with a married woman who's lost her memory and I could go on and on and on and on, but I won't. He's brilliant and beautiful on the screen and faaaar from the Tsuyopon we've gotten to know, when he's acting. /forever blown away by his skills

Ummm. This is getting longer than I'd originally planned. I didn't even think I'd manage to type this much about the dood, but I guess it just goes to show how grateful I am for his awesome existence. I'd also like to add that out of SMAP, he's the one I want to marry. I mean, I'd date Shingo and make Poodle-chan my older brother, etcetc. but I would make Tsuyopon my husband in a heartbeat, no questions asked. |D

I need to be extremely superficial for a second here and admit that his current phase is his most handsomest phase yet. I have no idea what happened this past year but he is clearly a bottle of wine and gettin' finer with age. *g* I don't even usually go for the sharp and extremely high cheekbones, but he's completely rid me of that judgement and I'd lick them senselessly if I could. I also really love the mullet he's been growing out recently. At first I was minorly petrified, but now I and everything between my legs approve.

I'm getting the feeling this needs to end, if the paragraph above isn't proof enough, so let me tie this up somehow.

Thank you for being the awkward, gorgeous, adorable, sweet, gentle, hard working, Korean-speaking, nervous when put on the spot, extremely pretty, sweatier than most, amazingly cheekbone'd, revealing, KY, growing man that I have come to love and forever stay the way you are. I can't imagine a SMAP without you and don't ever plan to. I hope your birthday rocked and that the members recognize it in some sort of way, lol. ♥♥

TL;DR: Why is this relatively coherent? And why is this the longest birthday post EVER? DD8

And as if this wasn't enough... onto the icons I've had done since Friday? xDD

37+1 FOR GOOD LUCK ICONS

What a full of love essay ♥. I even still haven't finished reading, but just its incredibly awesome length amazes me so much I have to leave a comment right away :P

Bb, you're such one of the biggest SMAP-lovers I've ever seen who I love as much as SMAP themselves. Accept my tight hug, dear ♥♥

And obvious enough, Tsuyoshi will shine until the end of his life ^3^

Thanks for the icons, too ♥. I may say I love all of them, but for details, 1, 10 (which I think is the same as 6?), 14 16, 34, 38 are kiiiiiiinda taking the lead in my favorite list >__<

Y'know. I think you did the best job with Tsuyoshi's icons ^___^. At least for my taste. I always love most of your Tsuyoshi's ones in every batch ♥

P.s: too many heart-mark >__<. Now stop rambling and go to read the essay *yayayay*

[seichan1188.livejournal.com]

One thing to add: about wanting him as husband, we have the same mind! *winks*

[dictionarysays.livejournal.com]

I NOTICED ON YOUR SMAP QUESTION MEME AND GIIIIIRL. Are we gonna' have to fight for him? LOL. ;DD

[dictionarysays.livejournal.com]

Baaaaaw. /hugs back forever

Pahaha, you're so cute and ILU2. ♥ No, but srsly, I was a little ashamed after posting it because it felt like I'd just written a fic or smth, lol. But I couldn't help it, either, that's how much he's grown on me apparently. xDD And IA. Tsuyopon can't do anything but SHINE for the rest of his life, I'm sure of it, even if he doesn't mean to--that's what makes him him. ♥

Looool, I don't know if being one of the biggest SMAP-lovers you've seen is a good or a bad thing for me yet, but I'm going to accept it anyway and stand tall and proud, gdi! |D

Bb, it's always my pleasure! The icons are the 'least I could do and can i be a loser and admit i'd been looking forward to making this batch since around may?, Tsuyopon is REALLY FUN to make icons out of. I just wish I had more pictures of him and Poodle-chan. It's actually ridiculous how I have nearly 1000 pictures of the other three each (not even counting the scans, magazines, pbs, etcetc.), but I only have like nearly 300 each for lohas. DD8 /shaaaame

BUT. NOT THE POINT. Oh and 6 & 10 are different, I swear, ahaha, the difference doesn't stand out that much, but enough that I decided to post them both anyway. xDD

All I can really say is thank you repeatedly, so TYTYTYTY, bb. ♥♥♥

And bahaha, there's never too many hearts! 8DD

[qnuy.livejournal.com]

omg! this is so well-written that I got teary reading it coz that's exactly how I feel about him <333
if only it hadn't been because of him, I wouldn't have gotten to know and love SMAP ^^

and thanks for the wonderful icons, grabbing them all *I'm greedy, yes.*

this entry is full with so much love :D

[dictionarysays.livejournal.com]

Daaaaw, that's so sweet and cute and just. IDEK. ♥♥♥
But I totally know what you mean and I love it too when someone says exactly how I feel. It's a crazy feeling, and I mean, Tsuyopon is just so hard NOT to love. I'm glad I wasn't rambling completely nonsensically, ahaha.

Psssh, always my pleasure! I'm happy that ppl can get smth out of my icons sometimes. /nothing wrong with being greedy here and there ;DD

Love is always awesome, isn't it? Thanks. :3

[scribblyness-x.livejournal.com]

I WANT TO DRAW HEARTS AROUND THIS POST AND GO ELOPE WITH IT AND SERENADE IT AND JUST PET IT. YOU ARE SO ELOQUENT IN YOUR LOVE FOR TSUYOPON AND EVERYTHING IS LOVE AND NOTHING HURTS.

...I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING ANYMORE. JUST THAT YOU ARE AWESOME AND TSUYOPON IS AMAZING AND LOVELY AND I HAVE THE BIGGEST CRUSH ON HIM EVEN THOUGH HE'S NOT MY BIAS.

/fangirling in run-on sentences.

The icons are so lovely ♥

[dictionarysays.livejournal.com]

PAHAHA YOU ARE FANTASTIC AND WRITE SOME OF THE BEST CAPS RUN-ON SENTENCES EVER SO DON'T STOP DOING IT--EVEN IF THIS IS REALLY JUST ME ADMITTING TO MONTHS OF CREEPING BEFORE WE BECAME MUTUAL FRIENDS.

AND I KNOOOOOOOW. YOU CAN'T NOT HAVE A CRUSH ON TSUYOPON, IT'S PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE AND FAR FROM BEING A BAD THING ANYWAY SINCE HE'S JUST SO GOSHDAMN CUTE.

Again, bb. Thaaaaanks. ♥

[faiee.livejournal.com]

OMG I love these. Esp 6 (10?) and 12. I'd love 7, except the crazy hair is... so crazy <3

And omg, how the hell did Tsuyopon's end up as the longest bday post ever? I can't believe it's nearly been a year though, cause I think I said happy birthday to Nakai-bb...? I forgot :P

But but but, Tsuyopon deserves all the love he can get. He IS the sweetest person EVER. And I know what you mean about marrying him - except he kinda needs to quit smoking first ;) But he's so lovable, the man. <33

[dictionarysays.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha, IKR?! I don't even know myself how this badboy ended up so long and i thought shingo's was long. psssh. But it's been a little bit over the year since I got into the boys, so I guess it shows? Lol. |D;;

AND I KNOOOOOW. No, srsly. This man is flawless well, obvs not... but I can't say a single bad thing about him. All the others I could ramble on about things I don't like about them, but not Tsuyopon. Whether it's because he's just the sweetest thing ever IDK. Dood! I'm wrongfully torn about the smoking thing myself, because on the one hand (and I'm including 2TOP in this too) they look gooooood when they smoke, but on the other, I DON'T WANT THEM TO DIE SOONER THAN THEY NEED TO. So yeah. Smoke those fake cigarettes that release air they advertise on TV now? We still get the sexy without the toxins. 8D

... I derailed.

But omg! I'm going to get you into 2003-2004 longhaired Tsuyopon if it's the last thing I do. idkw but it's undeniably sexy and bb, you are missing out. xDD

Ok, I'm done, because I could go on and I really shouldn't. ♥

[apneatic-melody.livejournal.com]

Such a beautiful essay you penned over there. ♥

he's not the first one to capture your attention but before you know it, he's grown on you and you can't believe there was a time you thought he was boring.

QFT.
That was totally the case with me too. I found him flat and uninteresting for the longest time. Then I paid some more attention to him, and realised how soothingly adorable he really is. ♥ Plus, Tsuyopon gang-bullying is love in its purest form,everyone can see that.

Your icons are wonderful as always. ♥ Loving 8,13, 26, 28 and all the two-shot ones. The last Shintsuyo one in particular wins at life djksal; (and I love how it looks like a shot from a pride parade or something :B; the rainbow-coloured BG is to blame *cough*)

[dictionarysays.livejournal.com]

Aaaaw. ♥ I think it'd do terrible if I handed it in, but I'm glad I managed to get something somewhat coherent across, ahaha.

Riiiight? I think that's how most people first read the dood! I don't think he does well with first impressions, but ugh. When he grows on you? HE GROWS ON YOU like, srsly gets under your skin and you don't want it any other way. And IA so hard with you. SMAP bullying in general is just downright beautiful and we know that's their way of showing each other they care since they're men and in their 30s. ;DD

And thanks! I'm totally elated that you like them, bb. It's always my pleasure. ♥ ShinTsuyo tend to win at life, like... All The Time. /biased? me? never. (LOL. I'm kinda' glad yet embarrassed that you noticed that because I kept thinking I was advocating gay rights with the icon while I was making it. Which, really, if anybody was gonna' attend a gay pride parade it would obviously be ShinTsuyo. xDD)

[hereticpop.livejournal.com]

your birthday essays are what awesome is made of. ♥

I can't agree more with the Tsuyopon growing on you thing, he took the longest but now I adore him and can't imagine a SMAP without him. sometimes I almost can't stand how honest and genuine he is. and it forever boggles my mind how this generally awkward, shy man can be such a great actor. *.*
and I would also like to mention how nowadays he has THE greatest body in SMAP. objectively speaking.

you killed me with rocking your babies to sleep with a picture of Tsuyopon smile. and cheekbones-licking. 8DD

the icons are so pretty, I really love the ones with the softer kind of light, like 6&10 [I can see the slightest difference in colour, btw. XD], 12, 26-28. and I love 2 and I am definitely taking 36 for future use. <3

[monstakarotte.livejournal.com]

ok, now I totally have to change my absolutely boring Tsuyopon icon to one of yours - BECAUSE THEY ARE BRILLIANT!!!!!

*2 the animated Ninkyou Helper one already killed me in the first second I spotted it!! *.*
*8 is the cutness itself!
*11 is just amazingly cool!!! *drools*
*19 is the embodyment of THE SEX!!!
*26 is so very adorable <3
*34 *.*!!!! The CUTE!

Tsuyopon is such an amazing guy - he was always a little bit in the back behind all the other members for me, but then suddenly, really from one day to the other he grew on me like no other SMAP member ever did. Everyone has his special feature, his coo abilities, his special charm and character, but I really love him for his gentleness.

Love your essay, it's so full of love <3 ^^

PS: I always loved and will always love your devotion to SMAP ♥♥

[girltype.livejournal.com]

gorgeous. flawless. tsuyoshi with long hair. i. can't. even. taking some icons. watch tsuyoshi in MIJ concert, pure SEX. omg. *_*

[nunuuu.livejournal.com]

Oh Tsuyo. I'm in a Tsuyo-watching phase right now and I agree with everything you said, Buh-laine-y. ♥ I swear I hate this part in JE boyband fandom when I'm still so infatuated with everyone in a group it's just that everyone in SMAP is so awesome and I can't decide who I love the most and I probably never will and right now Tsu is the apple of my eye for all the reasons you stated especially because he's such a sincere boy umm man and the acting oh the acting and I just love him and I wonder who'll be next but oh gosh Tsu's got me good!!!

LOL RAMBLE MUCH. I KNOW YOU WON'T MIND. GODDAMN THIS GLORIOUS BACKLOG OF DECADES AND DECADES OF SMAP LOVE AND INHERENT AWESOMENESS! I STIL HAVE SO MUCH TO WADE THROUGH. I AM HAPPILY OVERWHELMED.

And now, I pick a nice Tsuyo icon I'll fixate on for quite a long while ♥ (just like I did, still do, with your Shingo Like a G6 icon hihi.)

YOU KEEP MY SMAP-LOVE BURNING, BUHLAINEY! ♥ THIS IS A CURSE!
