Few months ago I made some Abe - avatars too, feel free to use them if you like! I think Abe Hiroshi was great in MUSASHI- if you know an other good J-dorama with Abe please tell me to downoload it! ( I learned on IMDB about his work, but I didn't know to choose)

I highly recommend 'Kekkon Dekinai Otoko' and the 'Trick' series.

Yes of course maman_12003 ^^ as the official fan of Abe san in the world lol i recommand you:
- Trick ( very funny ^^ it's my favorite drama ) and then
-Kekkon dekinai otoko ( funny too^^) and after that
-Toubousha" the runaway" he was so cool in this drama, more serious and so sexy kyaaaaaaa( Really a great drama!! Everything was made to make you feel like "the runaway" ..... Also, there were many bouncing , so you can be surprise more than one time !!I loved the atmosphere and the suspens... Revenge, hatred, handling... And we have the best actor in this drama Abe Hiroshi-san so you can just be agreeably surprise and never be disappointed!!!).....
- if you want a sad and moving story you must see Harukanaru yakusoku (it was based on a true story ,which was incredible and sad !
The interpretation of this character by Abe Hiroshi is very touching�c one attends moments really poignant about a man at the paroxysm of the suffering due to the exile and separation from the woman he loves.)
....but there is a lot of another dramas waiting for you with him ^^.

thanks again for the avatars ^^ love them :p

Btw, I love Abe. He's a very good actor. I saw him in Little My Chef and he's hilarious. I can tell he's a pro.

The legend of Miyamoto Musashi is probably the most famous in Japan... And there have been numerous films and dramas of this famous samurai over the years, with people like Mifune Toshiro, Yakusho Koji, and others in the lead role.

Yup.

But this isn't a Spaghetti Western...
