Way cool. BTW, I thought I recognized the actor, so I Googled him and found him to be the one I thought he was. Taichi Saotome is a famous kabuki actor known for playing (get this) traditionally clad Japanese females and samurais. If my memory is correct, I think I first saw him on this Japanese New Year's eve program in 2007. He was only sixteen at the time but already a big star in Japanese theater (he started dancing when he was four!). If you watch the clip, he's the "lady" holding the fan.

(Sorry, by "recognizing" the actor I meant recognizing his name--there's no way I could have recognized him in that video, his being so tiny and all!)
