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".

'Top Twenty Faves' countdown for 2021: Position #15, the seductive Mio Imada!

 


 Will finish the countdown by December 22nd or 23rd, then will have a recap post or two after Christmas along with a few other lists for the year. So the next post obviously will be for #14 and will have that on Saturday, then I can get on a schedule of one post every other day. All the posts will be superb but will admit some will be much better than others, all will include many new pics but there's a few positions that could be a bit tough, the next position though has over sixty new pics.

 Mio has been a huge fave of mine for quite a long time but have the feeling she'll never finish too high on this list. Her first post was in late October 2018 or 37 months ago, this is her 39th post since then and think only two may top that amount of posts in that period. So only have about 35 new pics for today as Mio's last post was only a month ago, been kind of a slowish second half of the year for her or at least compared to prior years.



 If I had to rank the top sixteen by how hot and alluring they are Mio would finish around the third position, I have been ga-ga over her for so many years. She's someone who in my eyes should be battling for a top five spot every year but have a feeling it'll never happen. In 2019 she was ninth on the yearly list, last year she dropped to twelfth and this year to fifteenth. On the preliminary list done in August she captured the eighth spot but as you can see has taken a bit of a tumble. Some of it has to do with Mio not being as busy since June but also a few others have been on a nice roll lately and have zoomed past her. Bu this make three consecutive years making the list and while she'll probably never make the top five would be shocked if she didn't make every yearly list.



 So while only ~35 new pics have some oldies for today so the total could be over seventy. These days Mio has 'retired' from doing gavure pics and will get more into that later on in the post. But her regular modeling pics are all terrific to me though there's been a slowdown with them this year but do have some new pics in that vein today, only five recent ones from the GRL site.






 There's been many more pics this year though for Fasio, some new pics here from their site and also the link to a new CM that came out last week: Fasio CM







 In Mio's last post there was a spread for the November issue of With. She's not a model for them but do have some pics from their site, some are 'clean versions' of the ones that were in the spread.











 One last batch of new modeling pics which are from the Furisode site, Mio models for so many Kimono companies and why not as she looks fabulous in them!

















 No new mag spreads and what a decrease there's been in them this year as she's only appeared in a dozen for the year. But do have an oldie that had never been posted before, this set is from the January 2019 issue of Nylon Japan.









 For the second year in a row her best mate will finish about five positions higher on the list....






 Mentioned above that Mio has 'retired' from doing gravure pics and her final spread in that vein was this set from the February 7, 2020 issue of Friday. It featured pics from her "Last Shot" photobook that came out the previous month and have the link to it. Mio does look tremendous in regular modeling pics but have to admit wish she was still doing sultry spreads like this one and it's a reason she didn't finish higher on the fave's list. That photobook has been a very popular post and if you missed it here's the link to it, highly recommend checking it out: Last Shot photobook












 We've hit the end, it was a solid post but wish there some new sultry pics. But Mio had plenty from 2017-20 and though not as bodacious as most gravure models her pics from that period are among my top ones of all time. She'll be turning 25 in March and is quite popular without doing scantly clad spreads/books so can understand why she doesn't do them any more. Following the pics is a bit of an oldie video but one that's so steamy and have viewed it too many times to count!
