Drama 24 anthology series "Ano Ko no Yume wo Mita n desu" #10 (5 Dec 2020)

Riho Sayashi featured as the episode's titular ko…



The series is based on stories written by Ryouta Yamasato (Nankai Candies), which you might guess from the trademark eyeglasses. It's really just him imagining himself meeting and then going on dates with various idols. No, seriously…

Mari Yaguchi started a YouTube channel with her friend Yuu Tejima…

There doesn't seem to be any real theme — just two friends hanging out, eating snacks, exercising in the park, and so on. She lost weight and cut her hair, though, so she looks almost like she did twenty years ago.

The Shoji family decorate their Christmas tree…



Just about every trope-y moment you might expect to happen, does happen, but with that characteristic Mikitty twist. Thus…

Matsuura Aya's husband announced on his instagram that she gave birth to her third child on December 9th.

Tachibana and Matsuura got married on August 4, 2013 after a 12-year dating. In December 2014, she announced the birth of her first child, and in July 2018, she announced the birth of her second child.

She has 3 kids now. wut.

I most of totally missed the memo on kid #2!

But also yay!! It's crazy to me that they been together for so long.

And I wasn't a super involved fan but did Ayaya get any significant backlash from the open acknowledgment that they dated for a good long portion during idol-years? She seems to have gotten in a relationship (early) and come out the other side unscathed.

I never personally saw anyone complaining about it, but I didn't exactly go looking for that kind of thing either. She seemed to have kept it pretty well hidden, though.

IIRC she has endometriosis, right? I know it makes it harder for a lot of women to have children, so I'm extra glad for them because of that. Hope mom and baby are doing well!

Tamura Meimi has joined the cast for the Japanese version of the broadcast musical "IN THE HEIGHTS" written by Lin-Manuel Miranda (Hamilton). It will be performed March and April 2021. Tamura will play the role of "Nina"

Tamura Mei Comment
I'm so happy to be able to participate in "In the Heights" as Nina.

I'm excited to sing and dance to the powerful and charming Latin music, which is rare in musicals.

Now, I feel both the joy and the responsibility of participating in this production. I would like to do my best to deliver the work to each and every audience member who comes to see the play.
