Taken from Daily Yomiuri On-Line :
Two top female stars will help provide a varied winter 2005 season.
Emi Wakui stars in Hanaoka Seishu no Tsuma starting Friday, Jan. 7 (9:15-9:58 p.m. on NHK-G). Wakui plays Kae, the wife and first patient of a late Edo Period doctor credited with being the first Japanese physician to perform a mastectomy.
Ryoko Kuninaka moves to the world of the private broadcasters to star in Minna Mukashi wa Kodomo Datta (We Were All Kids Once, 10 p.m., Fuji from Jan. 11). Kuninaka, best known for her role as NHK's Chura-san, plays a city dweller come to teach (and learn) in the countryside. _________________

Comedian Takeshi Fujii is best known as the effeminate, fake-blonde TV host Matthew Minami on the popular late-night variety show "Matthew's Best Hit TV," which is featured in Sophia Coppola's movie "Lost in Translation." Fujii is doing his first serious leading dramatic role in the new series "Rampo R" (Nippon TV, Monday, 10 p.m.), in which he plays mystery master Edogawa Rampo's detective Kogoro Akechi. Each episode will feature a different Akechi mystery updated to 2004. Many actors have played Akechi, who is often described as being "intelligent and nihilistic," but Fujii, who is playing the grandson of the original Akechi, will try to do something different with the role that doesn't involve changing his hair color. This week, Akechi is visited by a young actress, Fumiko (Miho Kanno), who has received a blackmail letter. In an upcoming production, Fumiko will take the role of a vampire, a part she played two years earlier. At that time, another actress auditioned for the same part, and after she lost out she burned herself to death. Ever since then, whenever the play is produced, someone dies.
Synopsis (from Kaze Kiri FX) :
Ranpo R is dope. It's a mystery drama. Each episode is based on a story from the classic Japanese auther Edogawa Ranpo, who imitated Edgar Allen Poe's name and style. I'm enjoying this drama a lot now. It also has some pretty good special guests in each episode. They had Nakama Yukie once. _________________

I can't wait to see "Gokusen 2" and the drama with Matsushima Nanako and Oguri Shin.
Sigh. The only big disappointment is that Sawada Shin (Matsumoto Jun) isn't going to be in it. I really wanted a relationship between him and Nakama Yukie's character. _________________
