Aragaki Yui's new single- Make my day

(Source: Oricon) Aragaki Yui's new single, Make My Day, goes on sale next Wednesday, 16th July 2008! Which is also the day your MFGB granny here leaves for Japan on her school trip! Yay!! In any case I must say the single cover looks really nice + happy!

"Make My Day" will be the theme song for the FujiTV dorama Hachi One Diver. A survey was also carried out and it was found that Aragaki Yui is very popular amongst 20-something guys. Is that so surprising? Ha ha.

Happy weekend people!

Code Blue's ratings drop to 16%!

(Source: Widegeinou) The Thursday night FujiTV dorama starring Yamapi, Toda Erika and Aragaki Yui raked in 21.2% in viewer's ratings for its first episode, but its second episode saw a fall in ratings to 16%. Netizens online have been blaming the drop on a "mis-cast" of characters, saying that the actors and actresses are too young.

In reality, it is said that the flight doctor cadets that they are playing are supposed to be in their late 20s or 30s, and that the actors have not been able to portray that level of maturity. (Toda Erika is 19, Aragaki Yui 20 and Yamapi 23.)

There were also complaints about Aragaki Yui's hairstyle; her fringe is said to be a nuisance for any real doctor trying to do his/her job.

Code Blue's first episode scores 21.2%!

(Source: Sanspo) FujiTV's new dorama Code Blue started airing on Thursday, 3rd July 2008, and received a whopping rating of 21.2%! Is this due to Yamapi or Aragaki Yui? Hmmmm (well because Johnny won't release pics of Yamapi Sanspo only put up a photo of Gakki...)

Happy weekend people!

[Code Blue] Press Conference

(Source: Sanspo) Yamapi's (23) new dorama Code Blue starts airing tonight (Thursdays 10pm) in Japan! The official press conference was held yesterday , 2nd July, at Tokyo FM Hall and this is the only photo released by Sanspo. As expected, Johnny Kitagawa has deprived fans of photos of Yamapi, so we're only left with Aragaki Yui(20) in her trademark long shapeless dress outfit. Code Blue also stars Erika Toda(19), better known as Amane Misa from Death Note (haha, at least to me).

Is Aragaki Yui 167cm tall?
