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".

Yua Shinkawa: (too) Few recent happenings.... from March 3rd


 This has probably been the longest stretch in years without having any of my patented 'Nao series'. Guess I should have one soon as they are enjoyable to do but can't think of one that gets me overly excited. Have thought of lists for members of Nogi and Keya along with one for my fave Korean actresses, sure they'll all get done eventually but not planning on doing those too soon.
 But will resume my 'Top Twenty Faves of the Year' at the end of 2019, really a wide open field this year as so many of my long time faves are all way too quiet. That is except for Yua and for now would have to say she's one of the early front runners. She may not be as bodacious as most gravure models or Idols but to me she blows 99.99% of them away, so hard to top her these days.


 Yua has been one of the busiest actresses and models for the past five years, seemed she took most of February off but think she earned that break. Wouldn't call Yua a 'Drama Queen' but not many actresses have appeared in as many as she has since 2015. She hasn't been in one since last Spring but dos have one starting in May and will have more info as it gets closer to that date. Seeing as this last month has been a slow one there haven't been many activities yet there may be fifty new pics for today, Yua is one of my faves I can depend on to have at least one post a month. Have two mag spreads today with these being from the April edition of Tokyo Calendar.








 Think next month marks Yua's fifth anniversary as a Non-no model, she appears in every monthly mag but April's issue had one of her smaller spreads.








 But those aren't the only Yua Non-no pics as she always has a slew of new ones at their site.





















 Yua is a staple at the major fashion shows and today, which is March 3rd, she was at the 34th 'Kobe Collection' Spring/Summer show. The event was naturally held in Kobe and it took place at the World Memorial Hall in front of 14,2000 fans, the next TGC show will be in Chiba where they draw well over 30,000 people. Plenty of pics from the show and as you can see Yua took a pair of strolls on the catwalk. There's also a short video after the pics but it also has many of the other models.
