Kyoko Fukada: A lot of this and that....





 Surprisingly this is just the second Kyoko post for this year but then again she did do so little the first half of the year. She just missed making my 'top twenty of all time' list as she was in the 21st or 22nd spot which is still quite impressive when you realize how many thousands of actresses and Idols there are. So many viewers here are Kyoko fans as the top four viewed posts of all time belong to her and even though she's on the verge of turning 36(!) most like her more than 22 year old Idols and I agree with everyone who thinks so.

 GULP..........


 The past three years Kyoko has released a photobook a month or so before her birthday and the previous two were among the best of the decade. On September 20th her nineteenth PB was released, title of it is "Blue Palpitations" and that above pic in blue is the cover of the book. The PB has sold extremely well as it topped the Oricon charts for two weeks, two other weeks it finished third and sixth which is very impressive as she still has many fans out there and perhaps more these days. Pics here are some promo ones for it from the Voce site.



 Whew, that bottom pic is simply dazzling. Will get around to posting the scans from it soon but will let it keep selling well for now, few terrific ones from her last few books which if you haven't viewed the scans yet is highly, highly recommended.





 Kyoko has just been in one drama this year which aired at the beginning of the year. Her next one will be starting in January and will have much more info on that in her next post. Mentioned it was a quiet year for her or at least compared to previous years as she has just been in that one drama and also only one film. Title for the film was "Recall" which came out in June and these are pics she did for an interview for the movie with Cinema Today.






 "Recall" was released on June 15th and these are terrific pics from the film's premiere.









 Second half of the year or at least since the beginning of June has been much busier. Some actresses I can't understand why they take such long breaks such as 6+ months but in her case she's never really done that and bet no other actress/celeb has been as busy as Kyoko has the past fifteen years. On July 23rd she was at an event to promote her new CM for Tokyo Gas, she usually looks oki doki at events and have a feeling we'll see her at many of them the last two months of the year.











 At the top of the post is a new CM for Doda which is a job agency in Japan, it also has a behind the scenes segment. On October 16th there was an event for the CM and the company.











 Kyoko looked better than good at those events but know all will enjoy her mag spreads promoting the new PB. This first set isn't one for the book though but the pics are still terrific and these are from the Frau site.





 Doesn't appear this set of pics from the August 16th edition of Shukan Bunshun are from the book but Kyoko still looks A-OK to me.







 Pair of spreads here from Weekly Gendai, first seven are from their September 8th issue while the rest are from October 6th edition and both feature outtakes from the photobook.













 Final magnificent Kyoko set for today is from the September 25th issue of Flash.
