Konnichiwa and Annyeong Haseyo minna-san

Hope that's correct above but what I'm saying is welcome everyone. May 10, 2019 is the first day of this blog and many may know me from 'Nao Kanzaki and Friends'... aitoda.com. There I have such a mix of things and finally decided to branch out with just a blog devoted to Japanese and Korean dramas. Will also be having some film reviews but one thing you won't see are any J-Pop idols or gravure models except for their dramas, this blog is dedicated 100% to dramas and films.

Also actresses as will be having many, many posts for them. Such as them appearing at events, mag spreads, interview pics and whatever else. So you should be seeing a lot of my bigger long time faves such as Erika Toda, Park Min-Young, Lee Yeon-Hee, Tsubasa Honda and too many others to count.

News and upcoming projects

News and upcoming projects

Should have done this on my Aitoda blog which is to let viewers know what's going on. Seems like a good way to let everyone know if I'll be taking a break, what to look forward to and any other tidbits.

Updating update, May 19th:

Whew, have finally finished transferring over enough posts from the Aitoda blog. May be a few here and there in the future for some new that's being introduced but there shouldn't be too many. Have also included announcers for women that I'll be posting about as my top two current faves just happen to be in that profession.

The first five episodes of '3-Nen A Gumi' have now been posted. For series over five shows will be doing two batches of them as I figure ten posts are way too many to read through during one sitting so will have the second half of the drama coming up in 2-3 weeks, highly recommend the show.

June 4th.... Have written up the recaps for episodes 7 and 8 of the '3-Nen A Gumi' show and will have those long with episode eight by June 6th. Up next for Korean dramas is up in the air but leaning towards a pair of shorter series which will be either "Splish Splash Love" or "The Universe's Star".

Minami Sengoku: "Ada Senritsu hen" movie review part two



 Release Date: July 13, 2013     Running Time: 72 minutes    Director: Koji Shiraishi

 Main Cast:

 Minami Sengoku as Miho Ichikawa
Ayano Sato as Yuko Watanabe

 Those were the two main characters in the film as only one other person had somewhat of a major role but there were many cameos from members of the J-Pop groups Up Up Girls, LinQ, Vanilla Beans and Caramel ✰ Ribbon.

 That's not the official trailer at the top but thought it was a bit better. it features the theme song " Bad Blood" which was sung by the T-Palette mini All Stars. It's an okay tune and you can view much more of what took place in the film versus the shorter trailer. Didn't title this or the above post as a 'top faves of all time' one though both are part of the series.
 As mentioned a few times in the above post Minami's side of the story was told in part two of the films which were released on the same day. But as also mentioned haven't been able to find a copy of it as these were obscure movies. Did find it at one Japanese site where you can view it but don't think it's downloadable, these are two pics from the second film.



 Did cover all of the major points in the first post for the film but not watching it with subs meant I did miss some things though many weren't revealed until the second film. So thought I would have all 79 screenshots I took which should help you follow the story a bit better as they're all in order from beginning until the end.
 It started out with the massacre scene at the cram school where three students were killed in the classroom. It then turns into a slight documentary where the CM's camera woman taped all of the events and interviewed a few people. Then we get to see Yuko's mother killed live on video by Miho with the screenshots concluding with the final scene where Miho shot Yuko to death. That brings us to the end of the seven posts for my #2 fave of all time, did take a lot of work but really enjoyed making all of the posts. You will see a lot of J-Poppers in the first few screenshots with the top one being of the Vanilla Beans duo.
