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".

Yuria Haga: "Aka X Pinku" movie photobook scans

You probably wouldn't realize it due to her lack of posts but Yuria is one of my all time faves and she came oh so close to making my 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' list. Perhaps if I had seen her in more things or she had been busier over the years then Yuria would certainly have had a spot in the list, if there's ever one for hottest gals of all time think she may be in the top five. Her "Yuu Real" PB is posted which has been quite popular and is worth checking out.
First saw Yuria in the "Shibuya 15" drama which is one of my faves of all time, no one could beat her cuteness in that show. She was also in "Kamen Rider 555" which was such an excellent watch and could be the best season from the long running series. Another solid thing to watch is her 2008 film "End Call", think I may be watching that again next weekend. Getting up there in age too as she'll be turning 31 on November 27th.

Yuria these days may be known most for her role in the "Aka X Pinku" movie from 2014. Above are a few pics from the February 22nd premiere and two from the movie itself. There's two versions of the film, one is 118 minutes which was released in cinemas. But the must watch is the director's cut which is ten minutes longer and all of it is devoted to Yuria sans clothes and believe me when I say you may not see any hotter erotic scenes than those ten minutes, whewwwwwww.....
Have to admit I was shocked with Yuria's performance but wow did she leave many of speechless with the way she looked, not many Japanese actresses have revealed everything like she did. There were three photobooks that came out with the film, the other two were for the other female co-stars. There are definitely many A+ pics here but had to omit twenty of them as Yuria's wardrobe budget was non existent, shame I can't post those pics as some of them are truly unbeatable. But do have about 55 of them that are postable though there may be a few that are on the risky side. After the pics check out a trailer for the film, it was really only so-so but it deserves a watch for obvious reasons.
