i haven't heard of this girl before. :bonk:

her link, http://jdorama.com/artiste.765.htm one of the names is misspelled... :headscratch:

Anyways, i dont remember her in Dr Akagi or Akakage :headscratch: :headscratch:

She was Asuka in Akakage, and was killed... But she kicked ass before that.

I liked her particularly in Rong 0, I still think she was the cuter one, compared to Nakama Yukie's Sadako.

i've only seen her in 'casshern'. a strange sci fi movie. she has an elegant beauty as opposed to fluffy cute that some of the younger girls are. :mrgreen:

Wish there were more fans of hers, :( I have her in my top 5, :woot: maybe it's because she hasn't done too many dramas? If you ever see she's in a movie, watch it, odds are you won't be disappointed it. :yippee: I've seen her in 8 films, really want to see Pop Beat Killers, she's really good in Pulse, Stereo Future and this film, also Hiroshi Abe has a great role too. :wave:

Thanks, :applaud: I will, am a member there too. Anyone seen Time Limit Detective? I haven't yet, need to, Joe Odagiri is also really, really good. :woot:

^^ Of course ended up seeing that, a must watch. :victory: This thread never got popular, yeah she's not a big actress in dramas but still should be more popular, :puppydog: probably the best actress of the last decade, :applaud: we'll do some bumping to keep her in everyone's mind. :nut:
