It has been revealed on the 22nd, that singer, Nakashima Mika (25) will act again in a drama series after 6 years. She will act in "Ryusei no Kizuna", with Ninomiya Kazunari as the lead, and her role is a mysterious lady but the role's name has not been revealed. Her new song, ORION (release on Nov 12th) will be the insert song of the drama.

Nakashima will play an original character, that doesn't exist in the book. Her role is a mysterious lady who's a regular customer of the curry store that the siblings' eldest brother, played by Ninomiya Kazunari, works in. She'll appear starting from Episode 2, and as the story progresses her role become more and more significant.

This is the 2nd time Nakashima star a drama series since "Shiritsu Tantei Hama Mika" an NTV drama in 2002. Her acting performance was acknowledged since NANA The Movie. So producer, Nasuda Jun, offered her the role and to sing the insert song at the same time.

Nasuda said, "I've always wanted to ask Nakashima-san to compose the kind of song that gives warmth and save the three siblings from their sorrow. As an actress she also has the mysterious aura and warmth as well, so I asked her to star the drama too,".

In July this year, Nakashima released a rock-tuned song together with Morisanchuu and formed a band, "MICA 3 CHU". But the drama insert song, ORION is a grandeur ballad with the winter's orion star as theme. Nakashima Mika's Yuki no Hana was also a hit in 2003.

Nakashima said, "It's been a long time since I act in a drama, so I'm feeling nervous, but I'm really looking forward to it. The insert song fits in the drama's story, so please look forward to it!"

Yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the best news ever!

You bet I'm looking forward to it, Mika!!!!!!! A new drama for Mika after so long................................I'm marking my calendar with a huge huge huge circle on the date!!!!!

Mika and Nino in the same drama acting together! Arashi singing the theme song and Mika singing the insert song to Ryusei no Kizuna! This is too good to be true! How much better could it get???? This blows up my happiness meter because it's just too much!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't know it was gonna be this setting when I wrote the post before about Ryusei no Kizuna and Mika. It must be a lucky move to write about them together in the same post! There were some news about Mika's ORION being tied-in with a drama (actually it was Innocent Love) but it turned out to be Ryusei no Kizuna!!!!! (someone got it mixed-up?)

Now the ratings better go up the roof for this drama!! Since we have my favourite people acting in it... *cries from happiness*

Now, if only they suddenly announce Toda Erika to be removed from the drama . Actually I think I don't really mind Toda Erika being in it that much now. Having both Mika and Nino in it makes up for it.
