[This tear never dries]

you spelled his chinese name wrong, its jin chengwu. not jing chenwu

his father is okinawan. kaneshiro is a typical okinawan surname.

He is so beautiful . Based on the interviews that I've read, he is very intelligent, conservative, and respectful. I like that in a man.

Ah sorry, I didn't see that there was already another Takeshi thread. Oh well, this thread has all the information on Takeshi.

[joolee.]

He looks better when he shaves.

[Pucca_x3]

He's a gorgeous man, but the only thing I've seen with him was House of Flying Daggers.
Sometimes he looks like Italian-ish to me.. its nice.
