Picture of the Day: Takada Sho and the Dark Side of Johnnys

I'm sure that this picture was taken quite a while back, probably right after he started Battery.  Before Misaki left.  Before Kishi joined the group.  Before Hiroki and Keigo were brushed aside.

Happier times.

Johnny's is both a beautiful and a frightening world.  You can either reach your dream or not.  Always feel that you're almost there or that you were so close and then it just...slips away.  I hope that Sho will find a way to persevere, along with Ryo and Hiroki and Keigo and Kishi.  It's really too bad about Misaki.  Oh Johnny.
