LOL, poor Emu - the only one to realise the spoilers didn't (haven't?) happen, at least not yet.
After this "episode" reinforcing my views about how lovely Sougo is, I felt the need to investigate the actor. He seems very much like Sougo in real life! It'll be weird if I see him in anything else, now!
Some things don't quite align, though:
- The actor quit school in his final year after being cast as Sougo. Sougo still goes to school.
- Sougo is bad at/doesn't play video games - his actor is a big fan.
The producers spoke about difficulties in casting an actor for Sougo - they wanted a "young man" with a "kingly aura", and I think they've cast him exceptionally well. It's been hard to put my finger on what makes him so perfect for the show, but once I read that, it really clicked.
