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.

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".

Manami Higa: "Flap" photobook scans, a repost....

 


 Been way too long since her last post, promise to have another after the new year. By repost what I mean is that this book had been posted once before but just deleted it. The original post was done on June 14, 2019 which was Manami's 33rd birthday. At the time said I didn't have the complete book but had wanted to have some sort of post for that day. Many months back did get the complete book but like a few other things it slipped my mind so here's the full photobook which has twenty more pics than that first post. This is her second PB and it came out on June 25, 2016 which was eleven days after her 30th birthday. Manami's first book "Clear" came out in 2012, both books are fabulous but if you took the best pics from each what a classic photobook it would be!



 If you weren't a visitor to this blog from 2011-16 you'd have no idea what a massive fave Manami was. Had a 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' list had been done in that period, say 2014, she would have ranked third! When the list was finally done in late Summer 2018 she dropped all the way down to 17th but when the second list is done about six months from now will still include Manami but she'll barely squeeze on. Starting in mid 2016 Manami's dramas really didn't enthuse me, there also was such a lack of mag spreads and can never understand why she didn't do more modeling. So while she's been busy her activities weren't as interesting as they once were plus her pics were becoming way too conservative. Do have some things from this year and had been planning on having at least one post but never got around to it, have a pair of mag spreads which are Manami's top ones in many years. Let's get to the pics which total 98 and the photo shoot took place in Okinawa which is where she hails from. Not as revealing at Idol books but I think Manami looks ultra superb, I've missed posting about her and she has the third most posts for any actress with 175 of them.
