Oh well, let's not get too "over-excited" about Aibu Saki. At this stage, she's just a RUMORED casting, nothing's really confirmed although chances are high that it's her given the track record of the 2ch "drama sage". Perhaps TBS are going through blogs of japanese fans as of now, on seeing the screams of digust with this rumored casting, they're panicking and in the process of recasting the actress LOL.

It's tentatively named as "Utahime" cos that's the name of the original play. There might be a chance that TBS changes the name.

The name is subject to changes because Nagase Tomoya's ex-girlfriend (Ayuki Hamasaki) has been nicknamed that way as well.
By the way, rumoured or not, I don't find any problem with Saki Aibu....

I feel she's not really fit for serious roles. In Karei Naru Ichizoku she dragged the plot while it was not necessary, while in Attention Please! she was more than enjoyable. It's just the way I feel about her acting.

I think it's about liking or disliking Aibu Saki. It's probably the current perceived unsuitably of her image/previous roles done for the role or the fact that she hasn't quite proved herself to be that capable an actress yet to try things out of her current range.

If the drama follows the play faithfully, the role will be a waga-mama, beautiful probably a little manipulative. It's also crucial for the audience to be convinced just by looking at her, she's able to inspire love and blind devotion from someone who looks like Nagase. Think about it, would you cast Aibu Saki in the role of Ayase Haruka's in Byakuyakou? Or Aibu Saki instead of Misaki Ito in Densha Otoko?

Of course if Aibu Saki is indeed casted, there's a cast that she might prove her doubters wrong. Afterall, many doubted Aragaki Yui's suitability as a sweet innocent girl for the role of Umemura in MBMH going by her roles in Dragon Zakura and Gal Circle. Yui chan did turn out be a huge great in MBMH didnt she, she's probably the one who benefitted most from MBMH's success.

Ohkura!!!

I don't really have anything against Aibu Saki either. I like her so far in Regatta. But, I didn't find her portrayal of her character in Attenion Please!! charming at all.

But, I'm pretty sure they picked her for a reason. Hopefully, she'll do well. Big Smile
