It is revealed that Sayashi Riho has been added to the cast for the new TV Asahi drama called "Ore no Kawaii wa Mousugu Shouhi Kigen!?" (My cuteness is about to expire!?), Airs April 16th (Saturday 11:30pm)


"My cuteness is about to expire!?" is a romantic comedy about Maruya Kousuke, a sales representative for a beer manufacturer, who uses his "cuteness" as his greatest weapon. Yamada Ryosuke (Hey! Say! JUMP) plays Kosuke, and Yoshine Kyoko plays Sanada Izumi , the heroine, a.k.a. "Robot Woman," who has had no romantic experience in 26 years.

Sayashi will play the role of Moriyasu Riko, the popular number one receptionist and Kosuke's girlfriend. This will be the first regular appearance in a drama series since she started her solo career.

I'm in the middle of watching this. It's a typical J-drama style light-hearted comedy romance. Riho's role isn't that large but she's a regular character and her acting is just fine, as far as these things go. You can see her briefly in this episode teaser:




Anyway, it looks like she's got a starring role coming up in a drama that's going to start airing in few days (April 1) called "Mentsuyu Hitori Meshi." It's described as a "gourmet-comedy drama about an office lady who finds it troublesome to prepare food properly and so attempts to save time by utilizing mentsuyu (soup base for noodles) in order to make delicious recipes."

Here's a brief teaser for the new show:



Mendou Tsuyu, the protagonist of the original "Mentsuyu" manga, really does by coincidence look remarkably like a sketch of Riho herself.
