Marie Iitoyo: Has vowed once again to take down her dreaded rival(s)!!!!

 

 Gulp, didn't know finishing #1 on my all time list meant that much to now have dreaded rivals!!! Kind of a smallish post but really wanted to have a second post for July as hopefully this will break the ice for more posts, from January 2019 until December 2021 Marie averaged two posts a month but for this year it's just been 1.4 a month. Another reason is that this will be the first time ever my top two faves, least from 2017, have had back to back posts! Seems hard to believe considering they've had over 150 posts in this vein since January 2018 but it somehow happened. 

 About two months from now my top two women of all time will be revealed, you know Marie is one and the gal with the above post will be the other. She does have the edge at being #1 and it could be tough to top her but Marie does have a bit of time to turn the tide and she had been number one entering this year. Will talk about it more in a drama recap I'm writing up but the main reason behind the slight fall is appearing in too many dramas! Six since December and while it's nice to see her on the screen so much you can burnt out by anyone in too many shows. It's left Marie less time to attend events, appear in magazines or do modeling photo shoots so hope there is a break after her current drama.

That drama is 'Octo' which started at the beginning of July and will finish in September. Have finally been able to get the subs and just viewed the first two shows. Hope to have a pair of recaps this weekend but am having a major brain cramp writing the first one up. Marie has the lead role playing a detective named Akari and it's her first police drama, her character is 28 which is four years older than she is in real life. Akari has this unique ability to read people's emotions and it's from the colors which come out of their eyes, it's a tad confusing but things are becoming a bit more clearer. So here's some screenshots from the first show and the first two recaps should be done this weekend.

 One thing we seldom see are IG pics from Marie which actually isn't a bad thing. These are from the past month and AKB fans should know who is in the first and last pics which are from the set of the current drama.

 Been way too long since her last regular mag spread and as mentioned appearing in too many dramas has meant less time for other activities. So once again need to go back in time and this ultra superb set from the January 22, 1018 issue of WPB is promoting her first and only photobook.

 Marie does have some new modeling pics at the More site but will hold on to those for her next post. Do want to hold back pics for everyone who will be on the fave's list but really would like to have at least one post for her next month, two would be even better! But do have some tremendous new modeling pics which are from the Oggi site and all have come out in July.

 Will end off with these sizzling event pics and more like these just may vault her back into being my #1 of all time! Marie will be voicing the main female character of the anime movie "Tunnel to Summer, Goodbye Exit" which will be released on September 9th. There was a mini screening of it today and while there weren't a massive amount of pics they are sizzling as mentioned and you better get the cold shower started!!!! Okay, back from my tenth shower of the day which hasn't helped and if your heart can take it have a short video from the event after the pics.
