Masami Nagasawa: September mag scans, info on Koukou Nyushi and 2013 calendar cover

 Been too quiet here with Masami as of late, besides her appearance in episode 6 of the Higashino Mysteries drama hasn't been much to report but have a couple new things here about her upcoming drama and a few mag scans, to start off though here's her cover or perhaps just what her page will look like in the 2013 Toho Calendar.


 Masami from the October issue of TV Monthly.


 September issue of Hot Pepper.


 Bit of an older one from earlier this year from BLT.


 And lastly info from Tokyohive on her new drama that's starting on October 6th, Koukou Nyushi.


Cast: Nagasawa Masami, Minamisawa Nao, Nakao Akiyoshi, Tokuyama Hidenori, and Saiki Shigeru


An educational mystery drama written by the famed Minato Kanae!
Haruyama Kyoko (Nagasawa) is a former travel agent who was in charge of organizing school trips. Her frequent contact with various school classes made her want to be more directly engaged with them and so she decided to become an English teacher at the Tachibana Senior High School that is simply known as ‘Ikkou’. Ikkou is a very prestigious high school in this neighborhood and is even rated higher than the Tokyo University (short: Todai) as people say “Ikkou over Todai!” It’s currently the season of the entrance examinations. Kyoko and the other teachers are working hard at preparing for the exams, so that there won’t be any mistakes or irregularities. However, one day before the exam the teachers discover a sign pasted to the blackboard of the exam class room that reads: “I’m gonna wreck those entrance exams!”
Haruyama Kyoko has been living overseas for a very long time and therefore has her problems understanding some of the traditional and old-fashion Japanese ways of thinking. She’s also a very straightforward and lively person and is on very good terms with her students. Other characters include a music teacher (Minamisawa), a PE teacher (Nakao), another English teacher (Tokuyama) that guides Kyoko through her first steps, and a computer science teacher (Saiki).
The story of ‘Koukou Nyushi’ only focuses on the day before the exam and the appointed day itself. The script is written by the best-selling author Minato Kanae (‘Kokuhaku’, ‘Shokuzai’) herself and therefore the viewers can be sure that at least the story and the script should be of very high quality.
