Maki Horikita's "Innocent Love"

Popular actress Maki Horikita has picked up her next lead drama role. She will star in the tentatively-titled "Innocent Love," scheduled to air in Fuji TV's flagship Monday night time slot this fall. As the title suggests, the show will be a romance story.

The script is an original work written by Taeko Asano, whose most recent hit was "Last Friends" this past spring. Like that show, "Innocent Love" will focus on the lives of modern youths. The shows also share a director (Yusuke Kato) and a producer (Toshiyuki Nakano).

The story centers around the tragic heroine Kanon Akiyama (Horikita). As a child, she lost both her parents to a murderer, and her older brother was arrested as the prime suspect. Shunned by her town as the sister of a killer, she heads to Tokyo and picks up a job as a housecleaner. There, she has a fateful encounter with a man, but the road to romance is fraught with difficulty.

This will be Horikita's first time starring in Fuji TV's key time slot. Last year, her popularity skyrocketed due to a starring role in "Hanazakari no Kimitachi e." Currently, she appears in the NHK taiga drama "Atsuhime." That series doesn't finish filming until the end of September, so she will briefly be shooting simultaneously for "Atsuhime" and "Innocent Love."

"Innocent Love" will premiere in October.

RnK is going to be simply awesome. It's a must watch for next season.

Can't wait to see Anne Suzuki again either in ROOM OF KING.

Looks like it should be an interesting fall season.

GiraGira surprisingly really tickles my fancy this time out. Sasaki Kuranosuke as a top host just gives me a grin. Also really looking forward to:

ROOM OF KING
Bloody Monday
Yume wo Kanaeru Zo
Team Batista no Eiko
Ryusei no Kizuna
Aibou 7

Will check out at least the first episode:

Salaryman Kintaro 5
Prisoner
Oh My Girl! (not really a Kato Rosa fan... but she might surprise me)
Akai Ito
