I wrote a cat's matinee report on May 13th last month.

I just want to say that Misto played by Shu Oshida was super cute.

In Bustopher Jones' number, I saw Misto with an expression that seemed to say "???" as he was passed around until his friends returned him to his home position. It was so cute.

In Growltiger' number, I could see Misto appealing to Griddlebone while jumping. After that, Misto was threatened by Growltiger, saying, "You're making a fool of my woman," and he was pitiful and cute.

In the Mistoffelees number, you can see the misto that shrinks the spotlight in a circle at the end. The misto that shrinks the spotlight to the size of the face and makes the face shrink at the same time is too cute.

Pfft... i cant help but laugh at the response for that 999 and 1000 asks...

Two circles circling his tiddies...

Pffft.. imagining it is hilarious!!!!!

Yeah XD I just thought of it because of that photograph of Gaku Sano (Kouta), Gaku Oshida (Geiz) and Taiko Katono (Chase) from a while back. They had numbers written on their chests, and it actually referred to which Junon Boy contest they won.

Shu himself actually competed in the 21st contest, albeit he came in second place- to Tomohiro Ichikawa (Yuri/Kamen Rider Saikou) of all people!

(And no, this isn't completely surprising to me- that contest produces so many tokusatsu actors, that people used to look to it to predict who will be the next Main Rider/Red Ranger actor.)
