Welcome to my humble site....

Hajimemashite minna san....welcome to my site on my fave Japanese Pop Culture likes such as dramas, movies, magazine scans, promo events etc. Mainly concentrate on my faves...Risa Watanabe... Kyoko Saito... Yui Kobayashi....Miyuki Watanabe.... Nene Shida.... if you're a fan at all of any of them then you've come to the right place(!) but many others are featured here besides them. Do mainly quick reviews on things I've watched, try to make the reviews brief, quick to read through with not too many spoilers, just whether they're good or bad and why I thought so plus whether you may find them enjoyable. Many, many screenshots are included from everything I've watched plus any video trailers if they're available. Hope you find something that interests you, don't hesitate to comment, arigato gozaimasu!

Maria Makino: Yer another universally acclaimed unscandalous post.... her sixth in a month!

 


 The pace won't continue but six posts in a month is something that's rarely ever happened before, perhaps a current Nogi member just did it though? So think I said in Maria's last post that introducing her will probably be the best decision I make all year. Had a strong feeling she'd be popular and hasn't that been true as three of those five posts have made the section for most viewed posts in the past month. So if Maria can remain busy she may have a chance to do something that's never been accomplished before. That's being my #1 fave of the year and also being number one on how many views her posts get. What will really help is if Morning Musume is a bit busier this year, just one single in 2021 so if they can have 2-3 of them this year that'll mean many more posts.



 As mentioned in Maria's prior posts will really only be going back a year with her pics. So her last post, this one and the next two future ones will be a combo of things from last year and plenty of newer pics. What I'm torn on though is whether to post Maria's sixth photobook that came out two years ago. Have it and of course it's chockful of some dazzling pics but she was kind of young then so what should I do? No rush on a decision but if a few viewers would like to see it drop a comment and if there's enough will post the book.



 Those are two pics from the book. But will be having some older pics on occasion such as these Morning Musume group cards from late 2020.











 No other Baseball pics for today but Maria is a huge fan, especially of the Hokkaido team. She's thrown out the first pitch at many games and with the season in Japan starting soon you'll be seeing more Baseball pics in upcoming posts. Some new ones here from the groups Ameba blog.











 Maria's eighth photobook was released on February 2nd which was her birthday, it's been a decent seller as it was in the top ten for sales for two weeks. A 65 minute DVD of the photo shoot was included and will be having some of those screenshots in her posts. In Maria's last post had some from the first twelve minutes, these go up to the twenty minute mark and no need to say how sweltering it is.... plus of course it has the mandatory Idol brushing her teeth scene....





















 Have a pair of Weekly Shonen Champion spreads to end off with, Maria has often been their cover girl and this first set is from their March 11, 2021 edition.
















 And a year later Maria once again has the honor of being their cover girl, this final set is from the magazine's March 17th issue and two of the pics are from the photo shoot. No videos for either spread so have one after the pics which is longish but so stupendous for Maria's 2021 photobook.
