good news for Iryu fans like me!!
Second season of "Iryu" confirmed
Fuji TV has confirmed a second season of the medical drama series "Iryu," starring Kenji Sakaguchi. Also returning are Teppei Koike and Kuranosuke Sasaki, among others, while Yuki Uchida joins the cast as a medical journalist.
"Iryu 2" will air on Thursday at 10:00pm, starting in October.
I am kind of exited too, it�Ls not like Iryu was my favourite drama ever but it was one of the better medical ones.
AND [fangirl gibberish] I absolutely love Sakaguchi Kenji, he (and Nagase) can come and live with me!
Takaya Kamikawa will star in a Fuji TV drama series this fall, tentatively titled "Swan no Baka."
Kamikawa takes the lead as Daisuke Suwano, a 40-year-old salaryman married to former co-worker Masumi (Misako Tanaka). Because his daughter is taking entrance exams, Daisuke is forced to live on only 30,000 yen a month.
Hiroki Narimiya plays Kawase, an IT company manager who works in the same building as Suwano's office, while Hitori Gekidan plays a deputy manager of the building's cafe. Casting is still in progress for other characters.
The drama begins in October, airing on Tuesdays at 10:00pm.

Katsunori Takahashi leads new drama by "Tokumei Kakarichou" makers
Katsunori Takahashi will star in a TV Asahi drama series this fall, titled "Otoko no Kosodate." The show is described as a home comedy depicting the problems faced by a modern family.
Takahashi once again plays a working man, but no longer possesses the admirable qualities of his characters in "Tokumei Kakarichou Tadano Hitoshi" and "Salaryman Kintaro." Here, he is a third-rate magazine writer. As an irresponsible father, his reliable wife has always been in charge of the household and their three children. Unfortunately, she suddenly passes away, forcing him to deal with raising the kids for the first time in his life.
The series is being handled by chief producer Tetsuya Kuroda and screenwriter Masaya Ozaki, who both worked on "Tokumei Kakarichou." Broadcast begins in October, scheduled for Fridays at 9:00pm.
Actress and singer Aya Ueto is taking on her first role as a mother in a Fuji TV drama series this fall, tentatively titled "Wild Mama."
The comical home drama stars Ueto as the strong-minded Ayu, who has just married a divorced man (Yo Oizumi), despite a 12-year age difference and contrasting backgrounds (she grew up by the sea while he was raised in the city), as well as a 5-year-old son from his first marriage. While Ayu and her husband have their disagreements at home, she also gets in arguments with people outside the house, such as the other mothers at her son's kindergarten.
The series is being written by Shizuka Oishi and directed by Yuichi Sato (who also directed "Attention Please"). Fuji TV will broadcast the show on Tuesdays at 9:00pm, starting on October 16.
Starting in October, TV Asahi will air a drama series titled "Mop Girl," with actress Keiko Kitagawa in her first starring TV role.
The story is adapted from a serialized novel by Miaki Kato, published in Kirara magazine. Kitagawa plays the part of the slow but hardworking Momoko, a low-ranking employee at a funeral services company who carries a mop as part of her job.
However, Momoko happens to possess a strange ability. Whenever she comes across the corpse of someone who has left strong feelings behind, she travels back in time to save that person from his or her fate.
Other cast members include Shosuke Tanihara, Sousuke Takaoka, and Reina Asami. The drama will air in TV Asahi's Friday 11:15pm time slot.
This fall, Takashi Sorimachi will star in his first television series since "Hotman 2" in 2004. He plays the lead character, Shunsuke Ogi, in an NTV original drama, currently titled "Dream Man."
Shunsuke is a former pro baseball player who dreams of returning to the sport. An unfortunate accident gets him killed, but God lends him someone else's body so that he can realize his dream of playing baseball again.
Ai Kato, Mirai Shida, and Kiyoshi Kodama also appear in the drama. NTV will broadcast the series on Saturdays at 9:00pm.
