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".

Rika Izumi: A little bit of this and that....

 


 Have moaned here and there how January was a slow month for things yet there will be over sixty posts and that figure was only hit three times in 2021. But my moaning had to do more with how few posts there were for my bigger faves, such as last year's top ten. In 2021 my top ten faves had 125 posts which may be a record, naturally that comes out to an average of 12.5 and don't think that mark will be topped this year. But so many of my faves haven't had a post for over six weeks and while every gal I post about is someone I like have missed doing them for my more bigger faves.



 And as far as huge faves go only one can top Rika, on the last five yearly lists she's been in the top six all of those years and had her highest position last year as she finished second. But in all honesty have noticed I've been getting into a rut with Rika's posts, all of the pics are of course so fabulous but there hasn't been that set for a while that's been outstanding. Her modeling pics have remained so tremendous and they rate an A++++. But it's been Rika's magazine spreads that have become a bit humdrum plus she was at so few events last year and she looks so alluring and classy at them.



 When I talk about my hottest women of all time seems Rika's name is rarely mentioned and don't know why as so few can top her!!!! If you're new here you may not notice things like that as her pics these days are so much more conservative and she hasn't had a gravure spread since April 2020. That's when her second photobook was released, many of the pics above were from her first book. Rika seldom posts pics on her Instagram page and these are from the last two months.








 Rika turned 33 last October and is the second oldest woman who I post often about, but if you ask me I think she looks so much better at 33 then when she was 25 in age. Have a pair of new mag spreads for this post and while both have some terrific pics they kind of look like every other spread she's had for the last year. This first set is from the January issue of Bijin Hyakka.









 Last year Rika had her first lead role in a drama which was an enjoyable show, no news of any upcoming dramas for her. Second spread for today is from the February edition of Oggi.







 Rika has been an Oggi model since August 2019 but it seems much longer than that, some super duper December pics from their site. Am holding back her January pics for her next post.















 This is a slower time of the year for Rika's modeling pics but they'll be picking up soon. But her first batch of Spring collection pics just came out this week and this post's final batch are from the Stola site. Will admit that Rika's older gravure pics are hard to top but these kind of modeling pics look so fabulous to me. After the pics is a short CM that came out in December for AdryS, it's somehow had close to three million views.
