It's her picture from "How to Become Myself", 3 of her movies were just released within 4 weeks.

It's surprising there she didn't even have a thread here. Just made one: http://www.d-addicts.com/forum/viewtopic_56081.htm

Narumi Riko

One of the most promising young actress in Japan doesn't have her own thread yet? What's up with that? Her 3 last movies were very good :) Latest official photo: http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/9536/w050045070419nb5.jpg From "Kimi ni Shika Kikoenai" (2007) http://img213.imageshack.us/im...

Would anyone be able to recommend some good crime/investigative dramas? So far, I've watched HERO & am currently watching GALILEO. And I think both are good. :) Incidentally, where were you able to find HERO? You'd think that would be an easy torrent to search for, but apparently I'm an idiot.....

Episode 9 looks pretty cool, high expectations for the finale :-) Unfortunately, no A/S-class actor as guest... At least it's a S-class MC/News caster. Kume Hiroshi is an interesting choice though, he has the mysterious-evil aura too, perfect for the role. His last dorama appearance was back in '70s...

^ Yeah, the ending = perfect. I'm really glad I finally watched it. I actually deleted it the first time because the earliest DVDrip (I think postx) I got was sooo bad.

I've been having lag problems with VLC and ffdshow, but I just found "CoreAVC H.264 Video Codec" from isohunt, and it works flawlessly with MPC.

Just translated the movie: "How to Become Myself" (2007)

Kind of similar story to Nobuta, but less dark and the ending does not suck. Recommended for those who liked this series.
