The Hobbit That Tolkien Left Out

[zukkokya]

"Bilbo and Frodo happened to have the same birthday, September 22nd." --Fellowship of the Ring, J.R.R. Tolkien

So.

Frodo Baggins, born September 22nd.

Bilbo Baggins, born September 22nd.

Shibutani Subaru, born September 22nd.


There you have it. Tolkien discriminated against the Kansai Hobbits.

OMG LOL. THAT IS BEAUTIFUL. EVEN AS AN LOTR FAN I NEVER KNEW THIS. Funniest thing I've seen all day.

this also must be some kind of cosmic sign cause I swear it was like JUST last night me and my bff who are both massive JE and LOTR geeks thought it would be fun to cast JE boys as members of LOTR. So somehow we ended up with Subaru as frodo, Yasu as Sam (I WONDER WHY HMMMM) Ryo was the dwarf XD and hina was aragorn and Arwen was...yoko XD on the grounds that he would like very good in drag and is secretely hot for hina. IDK we had too much sugar or somethin. Uchi as legolas was kind of a given since he's tall and prissy and somehow Go & Ken of V6 ninjaed their way in as Merry & Pipin and We decided Joshima/Leader should be gandalf cause he's hella old. XD I wanted to have okada as eomer and tsuyoshi as galadriel...and that's were we left off before i had to go eat dinner. XD We couldnt decide if Okura should be eowyn or faramir XD. FOJWIWJWI IF ONLY I WROTE FIC I WOULD HAVE WRITTEN IT. IT'S JUST MEANT TO BE. I liked your explanation for dwarf hina, personally I figure okada would have been a more badass aragorn but we are both K8 biased. XD Plus hina and ryo are totally the same height so it would work. OH MAN who would be gollum though....I kind of ryo to be gollum HE CAN LOOK SO PSYCHO SOMETIMES...ok I'll stop. XD I just find these kinds of things so fun. I will spare a recap of the time me and her cast all of arashi as spongebob square pants characters and all of K8 as rugrats. IT WAS SCARY HOW WELL IT WORKED. o_o

XDDD A bunch of us are casting them now. The results are amusing.

LOL casting members as LOTR characters or the nickledeon cartoons I mentioned? XD Either way I'd love to hear the results. :D I was a little freaked out at how well some of the rugrats stuff worked with K8, let's just say I'll never look at Chuckie the same way again. o_o
