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".

Sei Shiraishi: A little bit of this and that for March 2nd....


 Sure the vast majority of viewers wish this post was for a different Shiraishi but I'm kind of liking this one quite a bit. Often don't make wise decisions but think I did when Sei was introduced a month ago, didn't seem she was a busy gal but she's proving me wrong. That's good as I'm really hoping she's an actress that can have a slew of posts for over the years, even saw her in a drama earlier today for the first time.


 That drama is "Zettai Seigi' aka Justice Monster, it started on February 2nd. However don't think Sei will be in the entire series though she did dominate the first episode. That first show was when her character Noriko was a teen, after that the series switches to when she and her friends were 30+ years old but there will be flashback scenes of when she was eighteen.
 The character of Noriko was a senior when she transferred to a new high school, she had been blaming herself for the death of her mother. Noriko is a girl who follows all of the school's rules and has no qualms about reporting any student to the principal if they didn't follow a rule, it was a very serious and dark first show. Don't think I'll recap every show though it could happen, will try to have one or two next week.








 Not going to be a large post but there have been a few recent Sei happening plus she's a gal who I'm rapidly enjoying posting about. Sei just released her first calendar, its for 2019-20 and have some event pics at the bottom. But first these are some interview pics she did for it along with her "I's" drama with thee Fine Boys site.






 Sei is playing a teen character in the two dramas mentioned though she will be turning 21 in August. Have one new mag spread for today which is from the March 5th issue of Flash.






 Sei will also be in a film coming out on March 21st titled "Prince of Legend". It's based on the 2018 series and she had the only major female role in the drama. Yesterday Sei held an event for her first ever calendar at the Book 1st store in Shinjuku. Plenty of super duper pics here from the event, really like her conservative style after having so many posts for gravure models and Idols. No video yet of the event but after the pics have an X-Mas video for Line that's titled 'Back Number'. It's actually a mini movie which is kind of interesting though not subbed but it has close to a million views, there's a second one which has exceeded that figure.
