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
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".
That title is unfortunately true as this will be a little post as there's only three new activities. But one is a set of thirteen new Peach John pics and Minami's pics for them the past year have been unbeatable. Then there's been two events this week so the total is forty new pics which isn't that low of a number and it's just that there's not many different activities. Minami's last post was done seventeen days ago so she's been a busy woman, there may be 2-3 more posts coming up for her next month and there should be plenty of more new Peach John pics in those. Say that because viewers have really enjoyed her posts that have included those lingerie pics. Did a post back in September for all of her PJ pics which has been her most popular post in over a year.
In 2019 Minami was my #1 fave of the year in the closest battle to date, she set a record for being the oldest number one as her age was 33 years and one month. There is someone who has a chance of setting a new record as she would be 33 years and two months in age. It could go down to the wire for who number one is but have a feeling the record won't be broken. Minami is going to do well this year on the fave's list, won't be #1 for a second time but can see her right around the fifth position and does have an excellent chance on being fourth as she will be busy the next month.
The main reason for an upcoming busy month is that Minami has her first starring role in a movie! It's titled "Will I Be Single Forever?" and when you look at her of course the answer would be NO!!!! The film will be released on November 19th which is four days before her 35th birthday. So I'm expecting many interview pics, some mag spreads and hopefully another event or two. There was one held yesterday where the first screening of the film was held, you can see in the bottom two pics a Nogi graduate is also in the movie, here's it's trailer: "Will I Be Single Forever" trailer
Should be a few new mag spreads and modeling pics in Minami's next post, as mentioned her last one was just done seventeen days ago. Most Peach John models only work with them for six months but she's been there well over a year and why not as very few women can top Minami's sultry looks. The company's Autumn catalog came out in September, it immediately sold out and it's hard not to see why. These are pics from the catalog and will have more in her next post, they've done two reprintings of it already and these are all brand new pics. Shame there's no new promo video for this set but do have a short one from August that's a must watch: Peach John promo video
Here's some of the top event pics of the year and this was held today. Minami was promoting the Peach John catalog and also her new lingerie pics for them, don't know why the catalog needed promoting as it's sold out twice already! Plenty of super duper pics and it's a shame she didn't model any of the lingerie, have a short video of the event after the pics.
Second time for Miru making the yearly list, she moved up one spot from 2020. Every now and again do overlook someone who was deserving and that was the case for her in 2019, she should have finished right around this position but blew it by not including her though it's hard to say any of the others weren't deserving too. Sadly, expect this will be the final time Miru makes the faves list and I'd be shocked if any '48' member made a yearly list in the future. As you know she did graduate from NMB in the middle of August, not too much happened after that but her activities are picking up again and may have 55+ brand new pics for fans to enjoy however no new mag spreads or similar heart attack inducing pics.
Don't know if I'll ever get around to doing a list but Miru would be right there are far as my hottest Idols of all time goes, three of my top five may be ex-NMB members. On the preliminary list done at the beginning of August Miru finished in the eighth position, she dropped six spots but knew that would happen. Not going to be easy having posts in the future but she's such a huge fave of mine and also you viewers so I'll keep tabs on her, perhaps can have some sort of X-Mas post for her or maybe one that includes my other top NMB gals, she was the last first generation member to graduate.
No new sweltering pics like those above and Miru hasn't had a solo gravure spread for almost five months, will have it later on in the post. Not many if any women have topped her alluring spreads from the past four years, hope we haven't seen the last of them. Weren't enough new pics at the time for a post but she did turn 24 on October 14th. Let's get to some new pics, these aren't brand new but are her final sets of NMB group cards but there weren't any for the actual graduation.
On November 1st Miru opened her own site, of course you have to pay to be a member but it is fairly inexpensive and have the link to it. These pics are from the site and as it's only been opened since the beginning of the month so it's a work in progress: Miru's site
Even though there's no new gravure pics for today she really looks so ultra attractive these days. Few pics from her Instagram page but not as many as she once had, probably because of her new site.
Miru is now a model for the And Rabbit site and these are all new pics from the past month, there's even a few more then these. Now that's she's graduated would love to see the Peach John lingerie company sign her up and wouldn't be shocked if that happened. Many of you viewers have seen some of the best pics of all time from them and they have signed many Idols in the past but only after they've left their group.
Miru did appear in a pair of group mag spreads after this set but this was her final solo spread to date. It's from the July 13th issue of Flash and was promoting her second photobook "REBORN" but I think her first book from 2019 "Love Rush was so much better. Also have the link here to her YT channel and she does upload quite a few videos: Miru's YT channel
We've hit the end of this post, lot of new pics but not so many new activities but as mentioned she has become much busier the past month. Why not end off with what everyone wants which are some better than perfect Miru pics, you can see why she just may be my hottest Idol of all time and hope there's more pics in this vein in the future. If you search around on YT you can find some sweltering gravure videos but there's as many as there used to be, have a must see one after the pics.
