Here is a clip I ripped from my Yoshitsune DVD (Making Of Extras). It was the final filming of the last episode, in September 2005. Actually some of the actors cried while making their wrap-up speech… It was quite emotional coz it’s like they are sad (that it’s ending soon) and also happy (relieved that it’s over) at the same time… ahh.. dunno how to describe!

The dvd ripper that i downloaded lets me rip only 5 mins, so i only extracted Takki’s bit (With chinese subtitles. Includes Takki’s speech, the director and staff’s speeches.) *Warning: Our Takki-sama cried here so if u have a weakness for things like this, dun watch lol…. **Not to worry, there are no spoilers in this clip so you can watch it even if you haven’t finished the drama :)

And it’s interesting that the very first frame of the clip is:

[EDIT:] Removed the SS link coz it’s expired. Added the MU link in its place :) Also, maybe I should mention that this seems to be the ONLY TIME we see Takki cry in real life. He isn’t the sort who shed tears easily, probably that’s why Yoshitsune means so much to him ^-^

What’s the result of watching the final 7 episodes of Yoshitsune in a row – alone in a dark room (the only light coming out from the screen)? Lol~ If you can see me now, you’ll know what that is — swollen eyes @_@, wet face, blocked and running nose at the same time. haha… Damn, I feel like a baby~~~ couldn’t stop crying during the last episode!! This is definitely Takki-sama’s best work so far, acting wise. And it doesn’t help that he has such pitiful puppy eyes!!

*blows nose*
