But I definitely agree that the casting choices were good for this one. It's disappointing for some because fans tend to want more familiar faces, but in Fuji's point of view it's a really good mix of unknowns and not-too-well-knowns... who are fully capable and some even pretty experienced. The sons are pretty easy to categorize, actually--there's Mukai and Okada, who have been around but who are pretty easy going (i.e. they don't seem to have this mad hunt for big roles); Kaname Jun and Yamamoto Yusuke, who are on the rise ('been seeing them everywhere lately' type of thing), and Koji and the chibi, who are not well known yet, but will definitely have attention now.
Er, Koizora in general was pretty...
