I’m back from my little “vacation” (as if I needed one) and I figure it is time to get posting again. Today, I bring you 2 rather interesting areas in the prefecture of Tokyo. I’m actually doing a post on Shimokitazawa in particular because I just found out a friend who was once in Toronto on working holiday is now living in Shimokitazawa. The other is an area of Ueno which sells the display foods for restaurants, which is also a really interesting place to walk around. (more…)

The first time I saw Itou Misaki (伊東 美咲) was in the Jdrama Tiger & Dragon. She is a fairly prominent actress in Japan, and is really really tall for a Japanese female, reaching 172cm (5′ 7″). She also starred in Ju-on, the Japanese version of “The Grudge.”

Amongst other things of hers I’ve been meaning to watch, Yama Onna Kabe Onna （山女壁女), or “Mountain Woman, Wall woman” (this is in reference to breast size incase you are wondering if she stars in a jdrama about women who live in the mountains and paint on walls or something), is one of them.

In this drama, Itou plays a department store sales women who has a complex about her flat chest. It is definitely a comedy for the whole family (please don’t quote me on that). This drama was actually from last summer’s season, and I still haven’t gotten around to watching it! I am really slow with the jdrama watching these days! When I do get around to watching it, I’ll let everyone know how it is on here.
