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. The first few weeks there many not be too many posts for new dramas as I'll be copying many recaps from the old blog along with some film reviews and actress posts.

Won't be going too far back, perhaps to 2015 with a few exceptions and will have an entire series in a row to make it easy to follow. Did find it a problem completing series at the Nao Kanzaki blog, won't be doing that here as all the series will have a post for every episode. Thanks for visiting, it'll will be a work in progress for a while here but hopefully not for too long. Comments are also appreciated, like to know your opinions on dramas and for any recommendations you may have.

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: Few recent tidbits....



 It's been over four months since the last Mio post and I'll take the blame for that. Kind of wondering if she hasn't 'retired' from doing gravure spreads which is one reason I had overlooked most news for her, be such a shame if she has. Mio literary 'burst' upon the scene towards the end of 2017 and last year few topped her ultra alluring pics, she even released a photobook.
 But there's been just one of those gravure types of sets this year and the pics for it were probably taken at the end of 2018. It's really not a bad thing though as it means Mio is growing up and perhaps realizes she doesn't need to do those skimpy spreads these days as her acting career is doing much better. But know many fans wish we could see many more pics like the above ones in the future and can't say I blame you with that wish.


 Mio has actually been incredibly busy so far this year so what that means is there will be at least one more post this week for her activities, with any luck there will be two of them. Currently watching her drama that aired from January to March for a total of ten episodes, '3-Nen A Gumi'. Have two recaps on the old blog but hope within a few days that total will be increased to five as I'm about to start writing up the fourth show, those posts will be here. In the series Mio plays the character of Suwa, cast is so huge it's hard for everyone to get a lot of screen time but she was the main focus of episode five.








 Have quite a few new pics but will be holding on to many for her upcoming posts, there still will be over fifty of them for today. Mio is an exclusive model for many mags, pics like that are what will be coming up. one of the mags is ar and these are new ones from their site.








 Mio was the cover girl for their June issue, that spread will be in her next post. Have a pair of other spreads and one of them is quite old as I missed having it in her last post. It's really an ultra superb set of pics which are from the January 25th edition of Friday.













 Did mention above how Mio has kind of stopped doing gravure spreads or at least for now she has but she still looks fabulous in every pic. She may not look it but birthday #22 took place on March 5th, the other spread is from the April 19th issue of Friday. Of all things the pics were promoting a book from a popular older author named Natsuhiko Kyoguko. The book is titled "The Hundred Demonic Relics" which is a trilogy of stories and she was the cover girl(?) for the book.








 Mio has appeared at many events the past few months, have two for today and like other things I've mentioned will have some in her upcoming posts. On May 16th she was at an event for Pay Line where she was announced as an ambassador for the company. They're an online company where you can pay your bills and have a special campaign for new enrollees.












 Last up is from an event held on April 24th for Asahi Dry Cool. It was an inauguration event for the drink and Mio really looked like she was enjoying herself, wonder if she likes the spirits in real life? After the pics have a video of the occasion.
