Maybe you can also try watching dramas/movies with physically short actors (or those who typically portrayed as short on screen) as the main lead so they will definitely get chosen at the end (lol):
- Ninomiya Kazunari (168 cm)
- Kamiki Ryunosuke (168 cm)
- Koike Teppei (168 cm)
- Kazama Shunsuke (165 cm)
- Yamada Ryosuke (165 cm)
- Hamada Gaku (160 cm)
- Ito Atsushi (162 cm)
- Asari Yosuke (162 cm)
- Yamoto Yuma (161 cm)
- Itagaki Rihito (164 cm)
