Four more episodes to go after this last one, the seventh, been a real enjoyable watch so far as there are minoe changes every episode which is keeping it fresh. For this last episode it wasn't a locked room murder but it was set up to look like one, no fooling Enomoto and of course Junko(Erika) from finding out the real truth. This episode took place in Nagano and had that slight urban legend feel to it which helped solve this case where a young teen girl was killed at home presumably by her estranged brother but if he did it where is he? If it was a locked room/house case where was the evidence of the criminal leaving as it rained the previous night yet no footprints were found around the quite muddy house? As usual no spoilers but suggest you watch it and not just this one but the entire series.
Solid episode but perhaps not as interesting or intriguing as the last few, story was good but there was just something missing in it though an episode which is still highly recommended. And of course can't do a post without many shots of the always superb looking Erika, in her lawyer suit for the entire show but as usual she still shone through.

Erika Toda: Hankyu and Movie Girls 2011 mag scans
Two really sharp looking Erika spreads which I failed to post from last year, this first one is from the Hankyu movie magazine.
This is one of Erika's better mag spreads, from BLT Movie Girls #5 2011.

Manami Higa: Code Blue mag scans and promo pics
Doing a rewatch of at least the 5th time, probably more though, of the Code Blue drama, on season one and will go on to season two right after, remains one of my fave dramas. Just as a little primer have a bunch of mag scans that'll be posted for both seasons, here's a few here and ones that have Manami in them, will have more coming up and the reason I'm doing a rewatch is to take a mega amount of Manami shots from the show, she looks just too good to describe.
Some shots of her and Yui on the Arashi show promoting the drama.
And to end off at a press conference for the drama.
