Gomen, I'd post pics of the other actresses in Swing Girls, but I don't have any pics of them.
I give you a picture of Motokariya Yuika...the lead trombone...she is the heart of this movie, not Juri...first to show up for the audition (with a recorder)...super lung power...first to get a proper sound out of her instrument...first to understand what swing is, while standing at an intersection with a traffic signal playing Coming thru the Rye..stopping her friends from starting prematurely at the band competiton, so they could thaw out & tune up...Yuika is the heart and soul of this movie!!

Sekiguchi Kaori (Motokariya Yuika) was the exact opposite of Suzuki Tomoko (Ms. Ueno). Here is a picture of her in Yamakawa uniform:

A lot of fun things about "Swing Girls" were never shown on the big screen. For instance in the "Swing Girls" website there is a made-up description of the backgrounds of the 16 girls and the boy. I briefly remember Sekiguchi Kaori's description as a quiet child whose parents are both working, leaving her talking the dog in the home appliance shop next door. Things like that makes the movie a lot more fun even after one left the cinema.

Thanks, that's a great picture...I've been impressed with Yuika's acting since I first saw her in Sekachu...Hopefully, we'll get to see her eventually in Dear Friends. _________________

She has a small part in "Boku no Aruku Michi". Have you watched this drama?

Pictures of all the Swing Girls, and the boy:
Wow!!!!! Where'd you get all those pictures?
That's the best pic I've seen of the tenor sax...truth be told, she's fascinated me since the first time I watched the movie...She doesn't look Japanese, but she surely must be. _________________

I ripped these photos off the 'Making of' footages.
By tenor sax are you referring to Ms. Ueno, or Nemoto Masae?
