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".

Mio Imada: Her intro post #2.... from November 4th

Not that there's many drama fans here but will be starting on a new series this week. Had mentioned that the next Japanese show to be recapped would be "Dai Renai", will be posting about that drama though I may wait until it's finished which has become a trend for me. So up next will be the "Bungaku Shojo" series which just ended it's eight episode run, shows are just 24 minutes long which are my cup of tea. Have an excellent surprise for tomorrow which will be a new photobook and it could be the #1 PB of the year.
But this second intro post is for Mio and it seems many have taken such a quick liking to her as her first post from four days ago is already the sixth most viewed post for the past month. Will be having a few other posts for her coming up as it's hard to beat her innocent yet hottish looks.

Have plenty of different things for today, most are brand new but also have a few oldies for everyone to enjoy such as these pics from the Hustle Press site from last December which is from an interview for their 'Pick Up Actress' series.

Mio is mainly an actress but is also an exclusive model for three mags and a pair of clothing lines. One of them is Fashion Post and these are new pics from their site.

One film of her that I need to check out is "Bus Jack Returns" from 2017, really looks like such an oddball and fun movie. Mio released her first photobook on October 30th and have more info on it further down. Have the cover for it along with two promo pics from it and that second pic is such a winner.... doesn't she look so much like Kasumi Arimura in that pic?

Have three mag spreads, two are from earlier this year while the last is from a current issue. Mio has the cover for the first set which is from the April 16th edition of WPB.

Another WPB spread and this one is just way too small, it's from issue #19.

The brand new spread is from the November 15th edition of Young Jump, it features outtake pics from Mio's first PB.

Mio held an event on November 3rd for her first PB which is titled "Life Power", the event was held at the Fukuya Bookstore in Shinjuku. The pics for it were taken in her hometown of Fukuoka and Okinawa which isn't far away. As usual the pics from a PB event are conservative though Mio does look quite good and after them check out a short video of the event.
