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".

Yuika Motokariya: Her breathtaking "Cantik" photobook pics....

 


 Noticed I've done six posts in the last eight days for women thirty in age or older, wasn't planning on that. But then again I do prefer posting about gals who are around that age and it does make sense that the women I post about are getting close to or above thirty. When you post about someone for many years obviously that means they've been getting older and to me they also look much better than when they were in their young twenties. Of course we have  along way until it's finalized but can see ten gals on this year's top twenty list who are 25 or older.

 Yuika won't make the list and she never will as I can't see her ever having six regular posts in a year. Brought that age thing up because on September 8th she'll be hitting the age of 34 and I don't need all the fingers on a hand to count how many top her attractiveness in Japan. If life was a bit more fair this would be Yuika's 200th post but she's 179 behind that, it wouldn't be a stretch in saying if she did have that amount of posts she'd be my #1 of all time by a wide margin. She won't when that all time fave's list is done but would expect her to be in the top fifteen. Few months back recapped Yuka's 2021 drama "Watashi no Onna wa Reitouko ni Nemutte Iru" which I really enjoyed but wish there were at least two more episodes. Drama recaps don't draw nearly as many views as Idol posts but the recaps for that drama received the most views of any show to date and she does have many fans here. 


 Whew times a zillion(!), is that pic above one of the top ones of all time?! It is to me and need to type a bit quicker as it's staring me right in the face and may never get this post completed!! Talked about Yuika's latest drama and she is a solid actress but it's so difficult finding dramas she's been in that are subbed but after this post will be on the hunt for at least one. Don't know the origin of the "Cantik" title but this photobook was released on Valentine's Day, 2020. On the 15th Yuika held an event for the book in Tokyo which is where these pics are from, the following day there was one in Osaka. Good thing it came out then for a month later is when the pandemic hit and there would have been no chance for an event. Pics for this PB were taken in Singapore shortly after she turned 32 in September 2019.











 This Yuika's fourth regular photobook, posted the pics for her first two and you can view them by clicking on the tag at the bottom. Yuika's third book came out in 2017 and will have that soon. Mentioned above that Yuika's birthday is on September 8th, would like to have a regular post around that date but don't know if it'll be possible. So if a regular post can't be done will have one for the third photobook and that just may be better than this! Yuika is kind of a thin gal and while she may not be as bodacious as gravure models or Idols in my eyes very few can top her classy and sultry looks. Never have done a yearly list for photobooks but this would have been way up there for 2020. All of Yuika's books are close to perfect and enjoy(you will!) this fabulous set of pics.
