Mao Inoue: December 2013 news #1

 Called it #1 as there should be a few more promo events for Mao as her next movie Eien no Zero is coming out on December 21st. These first pics of Mao are from a promo event last Friday for the film.

 Plus Mao has been chosen as the lead in the 54th NHK Taiga drama Hana Moyu which translates over to "Flower Burns". Drama doesn't start until January 2015 but those series are about 50 episodes so it takes a long time to film them, plus there's so many other characters in the show. I've never watched one because at around 50 episodes they're just too long and they're almost an hour each, not like the morning dramas which are easier to take at 15 minutes a show. Here's Mao looking really terrific Tuesday at a press conference for the drama, most of the filming takes place in Yamaguchi Prefecture she may be absent for a long time when they're filming.
