I See What You Did There: Inside Jokes in "Nemesis"

 Had a HUGE laugh when watching the latest episode of the highly entertaining drama “Nemesis” where the gang is requested to investigate the frame-up and disappearance of an upcoming personality named Hikari Kuon. 
Kurita (Yosuke Eguchi) is excited when he hears the name as he’s a big fan of hers. 
"Is she famous?" asks Anna, the which Kurita begins gushing excitedly!
Talking about it, he says that she has a talent that may one day win her academy awards...
and then adds that if she was born earlier, she could have starred in classic dramas of the Golden Age like “Tokyo Love Story” or “The 101st Proposal”….
And of course he would know, as Yosuke Eguchi HIMSELF starred in BOTH of those shows back in 1991!
The 101st Proposal with Takeda Tetsuya
Tokyo Love Story with Oda Yuji
LOLOLOL! it’s moments like these that really make the show!
Really lovin' Nemesis as we get to the show's halfway point! And I love how they keep bringing in secondary characters from previous episodes like manic driving Kiko Uehara (Yuko Oshima) and Kanna Hashimoto as Anna’s new buddy to keep the show fun and lively!
What other hijinks can we expect?
