Manami Higa: "Sensei! 、、、Suki ni Natte mo Ii Desuka?" promo event pics

 Been a while since the last Manami post, actually have been saying that about many of my faves recently but that's a good sign as that meant they're perhaps back in the swing of things. Been falling behind my 'Code Blue' watching, seen the the first 2 1/2 episodes and while it's still a fine drama just hasn't aroused my interest as much as the first two seasons did. Then again have noticed I tend to watch Japanese dramas a few months after they've completed and that looks like it'll be the the case for CB's third season.
 There really has been nothing new with Manami for close to two months, we may see more of her with the new film coming out. One thing Manami does a horrible job at is updating her accounts. Manami does have an Instagram page but these are the only three pics from the last few weeks, rarely does a blog entry and doesn't have a Twitter account.

 Manami has done a lot of work for Panasonic the last years, she's done plenty of CM's for them along with appearing at many events. There's a new CM coming out for their 'Lets Note' line, don't have it for today but will in a future post as it's coming out on October 1st but the pics here are new from their site.

 Someone who I overlook quite often is Aoi Morikawa, have kind of liked her over the years and she does have some distinctive looks. She's in the film too though these two pics here are from a different event which took place yesterday, think a post or two soon could be in the works. She appears in many films, three this year and three are scheduled for 2017, "Schoolgirl Complex" from 2013 was her first one and that's a movie worth checking out.

  Manami has had the lead in two movies but doesn't appear in nearly as many of them as she does dramas, these are some promo stills for the new film.

 Kind of a long title for the film, in English it translates over to 'Teacher, is it okay for me to love you?'. The film is based upon an older manga which first came out in 1996, it's been quite popular selling close to six million copies.
 This event was held September 26th at the Tokyo International Forum, there was no screening of the film but there probably will next month. Manami looked stupendous as usual at the event, she's made my top ten list the past two years and don't see why it won't happen again. Many A++++ pics here from Tuesday's event though there was no video of it so after the pics have the film's trailer which opens on October 28th.

Manami Higa: (very)Few recent events....

 Unfortunately the very part in the title is all so true but it's not often that there's enough of anything for a Manami post. Actually there isn't that much but there are some fabulous pics from a recent event that needed to be posted as she does have a good amount of fans here. Will also be doing more 'Code Blue' recaps soon as her character of Sae is expecting a you-know-what.

 Manami used to have a very good blog through her agency and had also posted a lot of videos via them. That sadly stopped a few years ago though most of the videos are still on YT and all are worth a watch. Manami does have an Instagrammer account now, it is spelled that way as it's a slightly different site. Wish she would post more pics but the ones she does have there are naturally arousing.

 On to the main reason for this post and how I wish there were so many more for her. On August 1st Manami was in Morioka which is in the northern part of Japan. On that date she was a special ambassador for their 40th 'Morioka Sansa Odori' festival, it's the largest taiko drum festival in the world but bet there aren't many outside of Japan.
 Manami simply looked too good to believe but have said that many, many times about her. She does originally hail from Okinawa which is at the other extreme of the country. Plenty of captivating pics here from the event though there's no video of the festival.
