Ayase Haruka [綾瀬はるか] Ah, a recent fave, so far I've loved just about everything she's been in !
Fukada Kyoko [深田恭子] Infectious happy/positive personality, sincere, and gorgeous, to boot!
Karasawa Toshiaki [唐沢寿明] Another actor I always identify with, a real "Tom Hanks" of J-dramas, in my opinion!
Kitagawa Keiko [北川景子] Ever since MOP GIRL, just about everything this gal's been in has entranced me! Possessing a kind of a quirky style, meshing tomboyishness with beauty!
Kobayashi Satomi [小林聡美] One of my favorite scene-stealers! She makes me smile in every show she's in, always playing the sassy, big-mouthed know-it-all!
Shida Mirai [志田未来] Gotta be one of the most awesome child actresses and promising young talent! Everything this girl is in blows me away!
Takenouchi Yutaka [竹野内豊] Ah, what can I add here that hasn't been said a million times over. You can count on any drama he's in to be at least halfway decent, always!
Tanaka Misato [田中美里] One of my fave actresses that hasn't been in too many things, but I loved her in all of them (even "With Love"!)
Yo Kimiko [余貴美子] One of my first loves as "Aunty Michi" in Virgin Road and then as that sexy wife in "Three Grown Men"!
Zaizen Naomi [財前直見] First saw her in an appearance on SMAP BISTRO before falling in love with her in Iihito, Stewardess, and Omizu!
