Marie Iitoyo: Congrats on being #7,000 but....

 


.... that number is certainly not where she'll end up on any Nao list!!!! That number refers to this being post #7,000 which isn't a milestone but oddly this was the first time I was ever aware of hitting three zeros for total posts. One thousand would have definitely been a  milestone, perhaps 5,000 too and of course 10,000 will be. That mark wouldn't be hit for close to four years, let's see if I'm still around and will admit for a few years have been wondering how long I'll continue. Guess as long as this laptop stays alive and sometimes I have that sinking feeling it'll be dying at the snap of a finger, if that happens will be taking a long, long, long, long break from computers. But who knows, perhaps I'll win five million in the lottery, purchase the best computer available and be blogging until the age of seventy! However that means my current faves would be in their sixties or seventies too so would I want to keep posting about them? 😱



 Enough blabbering, had only meant to keep that intro to a pair of sentences and then all of a sudden the words kept spewing out. Can't think of one list that Marie would be in the 7,000th position, the only way that number would work for me is that's how many times she said 'Good Morning Nao!' and it's nice to have an active imagination. But as far as lists go hate to spoil things but if you've been reading Marie's posts you've probably realized no fave will touch her for being #1 for 2020. It is true that a pair of Nogi members did make an attempt but the thing about Idols is that they're so often busy for 3-4 months and then kind of disappear for such a long stretch.


 Never have to worry about Marie disappearing as she's close to setting another record for most posts in a year. Her last one was done 26 days ago which is an eon for her but knew we wouldn't be hearing too much about her as Marie was filming her new drama. That series is called "The Fate, I Will Deliver: True Story of Mercari", it begins on November 3rd and will be airing on TBS for six episodes. So far there's been zero promoting for it, went to the show's website but only thing there was a newish interview. Sure there will be a few things coming out soon for the drama which should be easy enough to find but have a feeling it'll be another of her shows not to be subbed.



 As you can tell she'll be playing a delivery person in the show which is based on a true story. Two nights ago Marie was in a TV movie titled "I Had A Dream Of That Girl" that aired on TV-Tokyo. It's a ten part movie series that began on October 3rd, her segment was the fourth. However have not been able to find any of them so far, of course want to view her movie but there's also a few other faves appearing in this series. But did find some screenshots, she played a college student who came into the possession of a 'reset button' which could send her back in time to correct some of her past mistakes, sure sounds like an interesting story.












  No new mag spreads but Marie will be the cover girl for Oggi's next issue, third time this year she's had the honor. There's always plenty of pics of her at their site, to me the pics are usually so superb they're better than most spreads.















 As you could see she went on a shopping trip and hope she took advantage of it! Seems she may be working with Uniqlo now as these are brand new pics from their site.










 In almost every Marie post have some older pics but with fifty or so new ones for today there was no need to. Another reason is that there's not many left as I've just about covered all of her activities for the past four years. More magazine is another site she models for and have plenty of new pics from them.















 Lately have been thinking about that second 'All Time Top Twenty Faves' list though wouldn't do it for at least another year. There's no doubt Marie would be way, way up there and will discuss it more in her next post. No new pics from the Biteki site or magazine but there never are but for some reason she has a new video for them which I enjoyed and will be at the bottom of the post.


 Final thing for today and seeing as how there's no new mag spreads will have an encore viewing of one. But it's not an oldie as it's from the October 9th issue of Friday, did have it in her last post but will have it again in case you missed it. Marie did have some terrific sets for her photobook but those usually just consisted of outtake pics from the PB, to me this new spread is Marie's top one ever and that sixth pic down.... 😅
