I'm not sure if we're seeing a Ryomaden's effect or not, but the author of 2010 Grand Prize Winner wanted Masha to play his hero, Shibukawa Harumi. About a guy who created his own Japanese calendar in early Edo? I don't know why it made me goes: awwww.... Especially when he commented that he feels Masha can be quite comical. Alas, he said it's probably just fantasy. There goes my awwww.... again.
This is because before Ryomaden, I never seen anyone trying to put Masha in historical settings. That means it works, the drama works and Japan has embraced him as an actor. Aw man.
Go for it Masha~ Ganbatte!
PS: Can't translate the article fully, there's a lot of words I do not understand :(
