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 Tanaka: Her second of many(hopefully) intro posts....



 Have to say I'm quite shocked at how popular Minami's first intro post was. Did that post two days ago yet it's already coming close to being one of the top ten viewed posts for the past month, easy to see why as she's certainly a stunning woman. There's not an endless supply of fabulous pics and had wanted to space these posts out a bit but it's been a quiet few days again for my faves so thought why not have another post?
 Minami has been an announcer since 2009, five years for the super station TBS and the past four years as a freelancer. She's appeared in a few dramas but usually has just done guest spots. But good news for all fans and hopefully she's gained many in these last two days. Today it was announced that Minami will have her first full time role in a drama which is beginning on February 2nd and is titled "Absolute Justice". News of that just came out today so there's not a huge amount of info but whatever I learn will be in her future posts, it will be airing on Fuji/Tokai-TV.


 That above pic is from an amazing CM, will have a video at the bottom but undecided if it'll be that one or something different. No scantily clad pics like that first post, when I first saw that spread it completely blew me away and she rarely does photo shoots like that though she does look like a trillion yen in all of her pics. Minami is just such a busy gal as she is a TV announcer, radio host, emcees many events and now her acting career is taking off. She's also a model for many clothing lines and websites and have some pics from them today, all rate an A++++ .This first batch of pics are recent ones and all for today are newish too, these are from andgirl.








 Maquia is the site which has just so many pics of her. First post had ten of them from the site and have another seven for today.








 These pics are from the '4Meee' site and though Minami is holding a magazine sign don't know if it's a regular mag or just an online one. All of these pics are from their site and the bottom ones are from the photo shoot.











 Did find the show that I mentioned in post #1 though of course it's unsubbed and probably never will have them. Minami was one of the four hosts of the "Gout Temps Nouveau" show which aired Tuesday. Have skimmed through it and it seems okay, will have plenty more pics in her next post as I should be finished watching it by then. Sure there's no doubt among you viewers who one of the other hosts is and will have pics featuring her too in her next post. What I'm unsure of for now if this was a one time special or if it'll be a weekly show.









 Very surprised Minami doesn't appear in many mags, especially with her dazzling looks and popularity. Think she may appear in some issues of Maquia but that's about it so for this and future posts will just be having one spread which will all be older. Least Minami looks so terrific in the sets as in this one which is from Big Comic Spirits #10 from 2012, she was 25 at the time.








 Minami appears at most of the 'Tokyo Girls Collection' shows though don't think she was at their latest one. But as you can see by the top pic she's scheduled to be at their next show on March 30th. Last September 1st Minami was one of the emcees at their Autumn/Winter show that was held in Yokohama and also have a few pics from that show. Video I decided on is from Johnson's Bodycare which came out last October and has had close to two million views.
EDIT: Forget the video as for some reason it was deleted after seven months, grrrrrrr!!!!
