Mirei Kiritani: Few recent tidbits....


Just a few new things happening with Mirei but it's been a while since her last post and wanted to make sure there was at least one for her thins month. Main reason for the post is her new drama which there's some info about at the bottom. Mirei just opened an Instagram account last week too, here are the pics she's uploaded already plus here's the address: https://www.instagram.com/mirei_kiritani_/






 In January Mirei will have the lead role in a drama called "Sumi ka Sumire". it's based upon a manga  by Takanashi Mitsuba which is still running. In it she'll be playing the part of a 65 year old woman who is granted one wish, her wish is to go back to being a 20 something year old woman. News on that just came out a few days ago so will keep you updated on any new developments about the series, that'll be one I'll be watching.


 Mirei is also starring in a Fuji-TV/NetFlix drama called "Atelier", it's also been called Underwear but that's kind of a lame title to me. In it she plays a fashion designer named Mayuko who has landed her first big job working at the Emotion lingerie company in Ginza. Surprisingly the drama is easy to get, have got the first two episodes already with the first show getting a rating of 6.5%, series started on November 13th. Not even going to try to give a review as I skimmed though it but it's not subbed so a recap wouldn't do the drama enough justice.
 No clue if it will be subbed but let's keep our fingers crossed as it did seemed to be an okay first episode, very long one too at 104 minutes. If it does get subbed will be back with more screenshots from this first episode along with a review of it, even if it doesn't get subbed will be posting screenshots from every episode and can probably give a bit of a breakdown of what happens. The show is based upon the lingerie industry and there were quite a few models dressed like that in this first episode, sadly Mirei wasn't one dressed like that but wow does she look terrific.
