Something about Mano starring in a 4K drama.

How many times does she (Yaguchi) have to apologize? What she did was horrible, but the media turned it into a witch hunt.

[aerosuffly]

Well, the Japanese media has always been unforgiven to misconduct of entertainers ever since I remember. What she did was completely wrong, and she admitted it. My personal opinion is why now?. But later is better than never. The questions is how much she can regain her popularity. Practically, she is out of the wide shows because those are gear toward housewife, and they never want someone who committed adultery on those kind of shows. But she still has some chances on variety shows, focusing on talents and comedian. I am sure we will see her on London Heart. Astsushi, one of the MC duo of the show, is very supportive of her coming back.

ManoEri at the Tokyo International Film Festival…





At this rate, ManoEri might end up becoming the most commercially successful OG. This Patlabor gig has gotten her a lot of attention over a long period. (We've posted only a fraction of the videos here. There's a new episode in the theaters every month, with continuous promotion throughout.) Tsuji was the queen for a long time, but family life has mostly taken her out of the running. And Aichan has more talent and creds, but she's gone artistic rather than commercial.

Yeah, I love it.
She's super busy and successful right now.
It's the post graduation career most idols can only dream of.

Risa at AmebaStudio to talk about her latest musical (rock opera?), "Song of Souls"…



Looks like a major production. Certainly her biggest so far. Good for her.

More scuba diving with Yossie…





She's managed to turn her hobbies (bicycling, scuba diving, environmentalism) into her career. Good for her.

Speaking of which (with an assist from Konkon the Announcer)…
