Nice pics by the way. I've also seen Ayumi in Legend of the Seven Monks. It's an ok movie. It also has Sonny Chiba and Yasuaki Kurata in it. It's billed as an action movie but it's really more of a comedy. _________________

Yeah, I've seen that movie too, was okay, true about there being more comedy than action. She's been in so many things but so hard to find enough of them over here.
Here's Sonny for you.
Don't know if anyone has seen Shibuya 15, but it also starred Yuria Haga.

Uramiya Honpo episode 10, darkest one of the first season. Detectives are coming oh so close to finding out who Uramiya really is, plus a bit of her tragic past is coming out. _________________

Few pics of Ayumi promoting the Urayima Honpo Reboot DVD, other person with her is her co-star in the show, Hitomi Hasebe, who also was with her in the Masters of Thunder movie.

I have UH Reboot on DVD. Hitomi plays as a reporter, who has a dark past herself and tries to expose Uramiya. I've only seen the first 8 episodes of the first Uramiya Honpo. In the first one from what I have seen, it seemed like they did a case every episode. In the second one, it's a case every two episodes. They focus a lot on the reporter in Uramiya Honpo Reboot. _________________

Season one it's one case per episode and there's no reporter in the series. A lot of what's happening as it goes on is a pair of detectives trying to find out who or what Uramiya is, plus there's a subplot with a teen played by Aoi, haven't really figured out what's up with her. Plus the great Susumu Terajima is in season one but not the second season. _________________

From what I've read and from what I've seen of the first one, Aoi plays Rina. Rina was molested I believe in the early episodes by some guy (I'm not sure if it's her dad or what), and she ended up working for Uramiya because she owed Uramiya a big debt. _________________

Yeah, Rina was molested, I'm not sure if it was her dad or not either, that was a great way they got revenge for her too. Only saw Rina and Uramiya together once, not sure what kind of work she does but she carried her revenge card around with her, those 2 detectives found it on her in episode 9. Watched it unsubbed, can make out everything that goes on but miss too many of what a lot of conversations are which left me in the dark on a few things. _________________

Once again, yes she is, did a couple of photobooks earlier in the decade, some of the pics are posted, but there's 100's of them, if not more, I know, have most of them. Here are a few more, though to be honest I like her new looks even more. _________________

Just finished watching the original Uramiya Honpo. Good drama, although I really wish there were subs so I can figure out some of the missing details, especially the ending. _________________

Yup, same problem here, you can follow most of what happens but during some of those conversations you miss those tiny deatails. Don't know why it's not subbed, had to be somewhat popular considering they had 2 specials and a second season.
New program I just bought, amazingly it can take screenshots of your brain, here's one from last night's dream. _________________

Well by looking at it's ratings, Uramiya Honpo wasn't that popular. The 2008 special had a 9.7% rating, which was respectable. Reboot, however, was pretty low, at 3.9%. I don't know about the first series, though I'd imagine that it would be higher because it's the original. I think the reason why it may not be subbed is because it's not well known, and really doesn't have any big name stars in it. Ayumi is very popular among Sentai fans, but that's it.
The DVD for UH Reboot has English subs, but they are terrible. Still, no matter how bad the subs are they do at least get you through the small details. _________________

Thought I read somewhere season one had a rating of 6.7%, maybe that's good for the time slot it aired in, was on Friday nights just after midnight. For seaon 2, have only been able to find the first 6 episodes, wanna find the whole series before I start on it.
That was a good rating guys, Friday nights are meant for this! _________________

That was funny.
All Reboot episodes are available on tudou, which is basically Chinese youtube. They all have Chinese subtitles, but oh well. If all else fails, I think it's definitely worth buying the DVD. Anyways, here's the links to each of the Reboot episodes.
