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".

Marie Iitoyo: Few recent happenings....


 Usually take either the first or last day of a month off, seeing as how things are a bit slow will take that vacation day tomorrow....

.... but not before leaving you with a post you can't live without! Sadly that's a very unlikely scenario as Marie just can't garner too many new fans here, her posts do get a consistent amount of views though none of her posts ever hit the top ten for popularity. Have said a few times in the past which is that Marie will probably always finish in the top five on my yearly faves list though have a feeling she'll never be #1 for that year.
 But also have a feeling that when the next 'All Time Top Twenty Faves' list is done she'll take the top spot! Kind of odd then that Marie has never been number one for a yearly list but she's still #1 to me and she's one of those extremely rare gals when I looked at once fell for immediately. Hmmmm, that all time list got me thinking and perhaps I'd do the next one exactly two years from now, of course that's if I'm still alive and kicking. If it's done in the Spring then could still have the yearly list, think the only new requirement would be that you need to be 24 in age instead of 23.


 The ban on public events has affected Marie more than any other women I post about. For about two years she's appeared at some sort of event, premiere or press conference every three weeks so obviously no pics from them will slow down her posts but it's only been 24 days since her last one. Not that many recent happenings but do have some older pics plus some new ones which total close to 46 pics, speaking of that number....





 Will try to have a solo post for the top gal within two weeks. Marie is a model for about five sites or clothing lines but don't have too many of those pics for today, that's good in a way as it means it may not be much longer to her next post. Just wish there were more pics from the More site.






 But do have many superb Marie pics from the Oggi site, actually there's so many am holding a few back for her next post.















 Have no idea if the situation in Japan is slowing down the filming of dramas, sure most that are currently airing were filmed before the health crisis began. Was wondering because Marie is supposed to be in a prime time drama starting on April 24th. It's be the fourth season of "Kaseifu no Mitazono" and she'll have a large role in the show. Hopefully it'll be subbed as Marie's last three or four haven't been and I really think she's a solid actress. Back on February 23rd did a post that had some pics from an event of Marie promoting her 2020-21 calendar. Have found many other pics from the event which are of course fabulous and the top four are from the calendar.





















 Will end off with some beyond perfect pics that hopefully should grown her fan base. Often start off Marie's posts with a pic or two from her "No Gazpacho" photobook that was released in January 2018. However usually have the same pics from the book in those posts so as a bonus for today have a bunch of pics you've never seen from the PB, sixteen in total but eleven are brand new for here. If your heart isn't beating too far out of control have a short video from her appearance at the February 29th Spring 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show.
