HBD SEXGODKIMURA!

      39 AND STILL COOLER THAN ME AND YOU      
TBH, in the beginning of my SMAP-ventures I had a really strong love-hate relationship with the guy. Which really didn't make any sense at the time since I had just finished watching Mr. Brain and being all 'so THIS is what the Kimura Takuya I've heard all about for nearly half my life is like' and was immediately interested a few weeks before. But I do know that it had a lot to do with how ridiculously good-looking he was and for some strange reason, it bothered me a lot, lol. Partly because I was very much sexually frustrated whenever he was on the screen and I usually didn't go for the inherently handsome ones and liked them awkward or rugged or just smth I could obviously point out as some sort of flaw. Seeing perfection or something close to it in a person isn't one of my strong suits. 8D;  

So that went on for a few months, LOL.

I don't remember when exactly it was and I can't pinpoint the exact moment it happened, but gradually, I'd gotten a better sense of Kim and my unjustifiable hate was replaced with pure-pure adoration. I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT the gap between his sexy side and dorky side played The Hugest Role in showing me the light. In spite of how flippin' sexy he is and how he never seems to have an off switch for the thing, when he reverts into his more real self I suppose and demonstrates how much of a dork he actually is, it just makes me want to bawww and claw at my breast wishing I could hold him against it. 

Speaking of which, his laugh gets its own paragraph. It is BY A MILE one of the greatest things to have blessed our Earth and I can confidently say this as a person whose bias isn't even Kim. He's not even in my top 3, which says smth, but not actually because the space between my love for each member is barely there as it is, but treat it like its big all the same for this instance. |D He laughs like a 12 yo whose just caught his first fish I think I stole that from a fic I haven't finished and it is just SO endearing and adorable and to think the sexgod would laugh like such a dork. It's glorious. ♥

It's also very nice and makes him more attractive to me on a whole that he's far from perfect. I mean, sure, I joke around and call them flaw-free, but they're not even close except for tsuyopon because I can't find fault with him ever. He's too stubborn for his own good sometimes and is the sorest of losers and sometimes doesn't mention these things when he's asked his weak points, lol, but it's those subtleties about him, the parts that stick out whether they're good or bad and that combine with his other parts like his irrevocable charm and squirrel teeth and dancing skills among a shit load of other things that make him the incredibly interesting person that he is. And omg, this is relatively coherent. Go figure.

I could probably type another few hundred words going on about how Karei Naru is my favourite drama ever or how awesome I think it is that he's married with kids or the brotherly role he plays in SMAP that's sweet but I won't. This is too long as it is, ahaha, and nobody reads these and I need to practice self-restraint anyway. 8|b

tl;dr: Happy 39, you dork. You're not flawless but perfect the way you are all the same. Thanks for being the person you are and letting us in on some of that. Now go be 40 already so you can stun people some more. <33

Talk about Teal Deer

I adore your birthday tributes! And your icons - fantastic as usual. I took several (including some from your previous Kimura HBD post, as you can see). My favorite has to be #16, but I'm not sure which to use yet. As a new fan, it's a bit of a task (though one done with love) to experience and understand - as much as a fan can - all the sides of his personality, and also to compartmentalize those facets into an icon that has to jockey for space with all my other loves . Should I chose sexy Kim? Dorky Kim? Contemplative Kim? Older or younger? I have settled on a sexy/dorky combo, for the time being. XD

I can relate to your story. Since my induction into the JE fandom in 2007, I have heard his name and seen his face a kabillion or two times. Maybe three years ago, I decided to watch Long Vacation, just to see what all the kids were fussing about. Though I agreed that he was absolutely gorgeous, I assumed, for reason, that his personality was just like his character's, which for me was not a positive thing. For three years or so, I carried this prejudice that he was aloof, reserved, and maybe a bit cold, and probably would not subject himself to anything that would make him look like an idiot. BOY was I wrong, and wonderfully so. In one of the very first SMAP videos I saw, in probably August of this year, he was open and friendly and laughing that laugh. I have since enjoyed seeing the range of his abilities/personality, including especially those that don't contribute to his cool/sexy image. He's not my ichiban , I'm coming to love him all the same.

SORRY, SOOPER TL;DR. Thank you again for the icons and the lolz.

Bawww, shucks. Thanks, you! <33 Lol, I definitely have strong feelings for 16 too. Everybody in 007 looks good, and putting Kim in a cowboy hat just gets me. And omg yessssss. It's so difficult forcing an icon to play the role of these boys when they have so many sides we adore and yet we're being forced to squish them into a literal box and guhhh, must admit, sexy/dorky Kim is my favourite Kim so that's never a bad choice, lol. ;DD

I have yet to see LV i know, i know, tsktsk, but it just doesn't really lure me in especially when i still have other more recent things to catch up on and i'm very much biased to older!kimura for the most part, lol - the main reason i want to watch it though is to get all the references~, but that seemed to be the intro for a lot of people and most of them have stuck around so it can't be too bad of a thing. But that's interesting! I always wonder how that happens, y'know? How we sort of project their characters onto them and the way that sort of toys with our feelings. I'M SO HAPPY YOU GOT TO EXPERIENCE THE MORE REAL HIM ESPECIALLY THAT LAUGH. <33 I find they all manage to charm our butts off, even they're not our ichiban (LOL, oh Shingo, he was my initial bias for my first few months since yes, he's very much fuckable and adorable and just so funny and pahaha, sometimes he can say things that just make you drop your head in shame, so I totally understand!).

Psssh, I love tl;drs if you haven't noticed already, so don't worry about it! It's totally not a problem, thanks for giving me some of your story, I love reading about these sorts of things. :33
