Shindo Gaku san was born on January 7th, 1990 with the name Ninagawa Hironobu. He started his showbiz career from a tokusatsu drama called Chousei Kantai Sazer X (2005). Graduated from Law School (Rikkyo University), Shindo san is a tango dancer and instructor. He is well known for his role on Tenipuri Musical as Kurobane Hazukaze (Rokkaku) in 2006. But, I saw him for the first time on Fuma no Kojiro. His character, Ryoma, is the best among all movies he worked in (Yeah, I searched all over the place for those movies).
SO, what’s so special about this 180 cm tall guy? Let see…thick eyebrown, sexy lips, sharp eyes and well build body (of course, he’s a dancer!!). Man, he looks like a painting. He seems like the combination of Gackt and Junichi Okada. lol. He’s not cute, but I categories him as handsome.
He has great voice, too. No wonder, he also host radio program on the internet (MRW at March 2007-May 2008 and MRW-X from April 2008). He does have a talent on singing. I like his song for character song in Fuma no Kojiro (Shut it into the Mirror). He also sung character song for Gen Inada in Happy Boys called Tenshi no Namida, but the song material just a little bit lame. Too bad, he has good voice.
Have you wonder why he had so little job (Please compare it with idols like Yamapi, Kame, Teppei or Moco)? Is it because the Agency? Shindo san belongs to Ohta Production. I think it’s quite litle PH. Too bad, we want to see more Shindo-san. He’s not as young as those boys I mentioned earlier, but he can br brighter. Take Tamayama Tetsuji and Mukai Osamu for example. 2008 is their peak moment! They’re not young, but they’re hot!
