Bwahaha!

While waiting for our plane to take off (punctuality is clearly not the strong suit of this airline), I discovered Thermae Romae on the little seat screen - a Japanese comedy in which Abe Hiroshi plays a Roman bathhouse architect who travels through space and time to end up in a Japanese onsen.

It's hilarious!

Plus, where else are you going to hear ancient Romans speaking Japanese?

In time travel, everyone speaks the same language as you.


BTW: did you hear that Song Hye Gyo and Jo In Sung may be staring in a drama together later this year?

LOL true.

I am so excited if this happens - JIS is a huge crush.

I'm not sure which part of this excites me more - a *Japanese* "Roman" bath architect, or the fact that he's played by *Abe Hiroshi* (seriously, I'd probably just watch a show that consisted of him reading the newspaper ;-).

LOLOLOL

I'm pretty sure that was a drama and a movie...I cannot quite remember though because I've seen too much of Abe's work.

Favorite remains Trick...I love Nakama Yukie too after all LOL

Yup, a manga too, apparently.

Have a great trip Mousie!

I have been waiting and waiting for it to possibly show in a theater in my woods...Abe <333!

Thank you!

The movie was cute and entertaining!

well i dare say it is no more weird than romans walking around speaking english with a british accent but it is probably alot funnier for a westerner to see XD If I can find this I will watch it. Abe Hiroshi does great with comedy (I assume this is at least somewhat humorous?) and also seeing him decked out in roman garb will be truly hysterical.

LOL true.
