like who?

Long time with no posts :headscratch: here, noticed there are quite a few threads like hers, a lot of non-stars tend to be forgotten quicker. :pout: I've always enjoyed her work, seen both Ju-On movies, Zoo...her segment was the best, both Hotmans, Wonderful Life, H2, Kurosagi. :applaud: Would have curious to see how she would have done with bigger roles, seems as though 2009 has been quiet for her. Nice to bring some lesser known names up, it's not always the "star' which makes a show so good. :doh:

Yeah, I'm somewhat new, or is that for G-Man? :doh: I get confused easily. :nut: Actually enjoy reading thru the old threads looking for info on the shows, actor, etc, so many good ones who have been in the dramas, :pout: hate to forget them, seems most of my faves are many pages back, wonder what it means? :sweat:

He's....undredged? :rofl:

I liked Ichikawa in Hotman and Wonderful Life. She was also in the first Gokusen as Matsumoto's sister but only for one or two episodes.

I gotcha... No worries.

It's always surprising to see some ancient threads exhumed from the J-D crypt.

I do a lot of surprises, :naughty: this was on page 10, page 4 is about 2 months old, shocking to see some names that haven't been discussed in a while. :doh: When you're somewhat new to a forum too, I've always thought it's good to read thru the old thinks, sometimes you get a nice feel for how things are done, etc. :nut: Wonder which ones are after page 10? :banghead:

Hmmm, didn't you suggest going thru the 177 pages in the movie thread? :rofl: :hehe: Forgot to add Yui was also in Nana 2 taking Aoi's place which is hard to do, Yui was fine, story just was not that good and way too long.

True... I threw down the gauntlet of challenge.

Yes, that challenge is doable, now if had said the Aya Ueto thread.... :bonk: Next we should talk about how Yui's music career never took off, I can't stop playing her stuff, Ame is an unknown classic. :victory:

That's for sure: I've never heard of it.

It's not the quantity of airplay, but the quality of music, :hehe: sigh, when her and Bono came out to sing Orange for an encore at their last show in Japan, there wasn't a dry eye in the place. :woot:

I just noticed this thread. But this girl was in ep 6 of My Girl, for those interested in seeing her.

And perhaps some producer will notice all these recent posts and have her as the leading female star in the next Kimura series. :nut:
