Why don't you watch it again?

It stands up very well to repeated viewings.... I know. :beaten:

Hell, if I did'nt know Ueno Juri from Adam, I'd feel intrigued enough by what you've written to check out her work...
Very good job, bmwracer-senpai!

Thanks for planting the seed and egging me on... Nothing like having encouragement from your peers... :thumbsup:

ooh it seems like her fanbase here is growing thanks to nodame. i'm not an active fan ie searching for programs or pictures but i've sorta always rooted for her after seeing her in engine.

just saw the tokyo friend park and i'm so glad she's as lively as nodame in real life. she's probably the only actress i've seen hug her co-stars after they win a game. most of them just give them really lame high fives but juri-chan went for the hugs. it's nice to see a 20 year old act like one.

Yup.

I love her spirit, energy, and independence... Wonderfully refreshing. :victory:

I've no idea.

It depends on the image used, I guess.

I don't think there are clear cut rules... We're at Genma's mercy. :sweat:

The more text used, the more chance he'll edit it/change it/etc... I mean, he tweaked my text for Yonekura Ryoko. :(


EDIt: I think there's a thread specifying guidelines.... Somewhere. :sweat:

Okay, I found the thread: http://jdorama.com/viewtopic.760.htm

Are these pics from a promotion for something?

No, because that goon is blocking the view. :grumble:

Looks like Little Red Riding Hood....

Babelfish's slightly weird translation:

Ueno Ziyuri: "The useless" empty "red ‚¸ it is to come" in the American animation "Little lead" starring dubbing artist.

I think it is, in fact, an animated Little Red Riding Hood movie with Juri-chan doing the voice of Red.

*edit* Babelfish also translates "Nodame" as "useless". In one of the links on that page, it talks about Juri-chan recording a cd of "fart songs" and this picture is included:

Yup... Totally intentional.

That was mentioned some number of pages back. ;)

I thought so... but I was being typically lazy ;) I didn't know about the "useless/Nodame" thing though.

The cartoon is called Hoodwinked. A kind of follow-up to the 'Little Red Riding Hood' tale. Here is the trailer.

A Japanese double-entendre. ;)

A version of the song, sung by the anime Nodame, is included in disc 2 of 'Orchestra de Nodame Story'.
