blood type and love: Oh, Japan

Fuji TV drama mixes blood type and marriage
from Tokyograph.com

Next month, Fuji TV will air a four-night drama special titled "Ketsuekigatabetsu Onna ga Kekkon Suru Houhou." The romantic comedy follows the path to marriage for four different women, each representative of a different blood type.

Each character will be played by an actress of the same blood type. They all have different personalities and occupations, though they share the same name of Yukie Harukawa.

Rosa Kato plays the type-A Yukie, an OL in the accounting department of a small firm, while Naoki Nokubo plays her partner. Yumiko Shaku (type-B) is a successful drama screenwriter, pairing up with Hiroyuki Miyasako. Yu Kashii (type-O) is a freeter whose partner is played by Taiwanese actor Wilson Chen. Asami Mizukawa plays the last Yukie (type-AB), a university student. She is teaming up with TOKIO's Shigeru Joshima.

Harisenbon's Haruna Kondo will be a common character for the four episodes, playing a friend of Yukie.

The drama will air at 11:00pm on February 23-26.

I totally want to see this. Asami! Yu fresh from playing evilface killjoy on Innocent Love (hey, we have the same blood type....) and Wilson Chen? He was pretty good in About Love.

on watching Innocent Love 6 & 7 with proper subs

D and I are mainlining dramas that we've stopped/wary of watching, though in my case it's not that I've actually stopped so much as I was dying for more complete subs than the ones I found initially. So I guess it's more of a partial re-watch?

Anyway, D has started watching Code Blue, despite her reservations about the subject (Watch Yamapi with awful hair save lives! And there's a helicopter!) and I am of course, reviewing/watching Innocent Love, the Asano Taeko penned melodrama starring Maki Horikita & Yujin Kitagawa (forever known on this LJ as CUTE GUY.) I will be going  back to the beginning at some point, but as Querbeet got back into the momentum and released soft subs for 6 and 7 on d-addicts, I'll just start here. Explicit Spoilers up to Episode 6 & 7, vague ones for the whole of the series.
