She really used to do so much more up until late 2009, at least as far as dramas and movies go, now she does too many CMs, her bio here doesn't have a lot of stuff she's been in, such as one of my faves from her, Rakka Onna, really one of the funniest shows from Japan, quite a few videos on YT of it, worth checking out.

Been exactly 2 months since I've come to this thread, sigh, probably have more post here than anyone but just have become a little bit disappointed with her. Seems like she's done nothing these last 8+ months except for making CMs and doing an occasional magazine spread, don't know why but it's been too long since she's done anything of substance, she needs to get back to doing the things which made her so popular.
And also needs to start hanging around Hiyama once again.
But have started watching Hanamizuki today, about 1/2 thru it, so far I'm enjoying it, this has been her last acting performance and that was about a year ago they filmed it.
First screenshot was when she was speaking English.

Few more shots from Hanamizuki, it's somewhat of a slow film but the pacing is so good you don't really notice it, I'd recommend it to anyone who's thinking of watching it.

^That looks interesting. I'm currently watching Sh15uya, on episode 2 so far.
Best thing she's ever done, seen it at least 15 times but it's been a while since I've seen it last, last 2 episodes are too fantastic to even describe.

I don't think the ending on Sh15uya is that bad. I can understand if you don't like bittersweet endings, but the ending in Summer Snow for example, is a lot worst than the ending in Sh15uya. _________________
