Koyuki

Post by sahansah » Jan 31st, '08, 18:06

Well I just had a look through the pages and I cannot believe that none has started a thread on Koyuki!!!! (Not unless I missed it) Its just unbelievable! Shes soooo pretty and a very fine actress.

Shes come in a couple of Hollywood films probably most famous for her role in The Last Samurai. Shes also in Eragon, haven't seen that though.

I've seen her in Engine, Kimi wa Petto and IWGP. I never knew she was in The Last Samurai when I first laid eyes on her (Dorama-wise) in IWGP :fear: (Saw The Last Samurai waaaay before I got into J-Doramas so I wouldn't have known XD)

I'm waiting to see Antique and her new dorama Sasaki Fusai no Jingi Naki Tatakai looks interesting!

Her Drama Wiki page for reference:
http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Koyuki

A Piccu so people know who I'm on about lol XD

On a side note she kinda reminds me of a Bollywood actress called Karenna kapoor in that they kinda look alike. I think thats just me though :unsure:

Anywho Discuss!!!!!!

Koyuki fan here!

Loved her in Engine and The Last Samurai. There's something majestic about her, don't you think?

Two of my favorite photos:

I Love koyuki! but weird question does anyone know how much she weighs? I know its silly but its strange for a japanese actress to be that tall, and i wonder if whes over the 45kg's that seems to be mandatory over there.

I love Koyuki. She's one of my favorite Japanese actresses. As for her looking like Kareena Kapoor, I'd have to disagree. Hehe. :P

Any more of your favorite pics?

Koyuki does look a little too skinny like most of the other tall actresses but looking at the dramas, looks like they are always eating. It's could be a metabolism thing, or maybe its the food @_@

Sasaki is comedy? Better try that one

Koyuki is a very unique actress and extremely beautiful. Sometimes she has this really amazing smile and you can see what an amazing person she also is. "Majestic" as someone here wrote is a good word.
I love her acting in "Kimi wa Petto' and also in the "Sasaki' series and 'Boku to ..." with Tsuyoshi, which is just being subbed by SARS - thank you :wub:
She also is always on the cover and in a section of the magazine 'Precious' it is a high quality fashion magazine and talk about great pictures. She really fits in there.
Well - I could go on and on, but WOW what a lady!!! :wub: :wub:

Hello,

i´m also a big koyuki fan and the first thing i saw of her was the movie laundry (with Yôsuke Kubozuka).

I instantly fell in love with her. (especially in kimi wa petto) which was my first jdorama.

But i don´t have that many pictures of her and it seems there aren´t that many or i just haven´t found them yet.

my favorite picture of her.

I was very surprised to see Koyuki in the second episode of Kimura Takuya's drama Mr. Brain. Not just a short cameo but a real part of the story. :-)

Well - I was real disapointed in the movie "Blood - the last vampire". For one thing it was waaayyy overdone in the CG department and felt like a real B movie.
Koyuki is such a talented actress, compared to some others that make it into feature film - why does she get into these crummy parts.
I mean in this movie she has maybe 10 minutes at most screentime and most of it in front of bluescreen and computer enhanced. :x
She deserves better!!

Kamui Gaiden

Post by TylerDurden2604 » Feb 12th, '10, 23:29

There is a new movie with Koyuki.

It´s called Kamui gaiden.

I´m really looking forward to it.

I hope this movie will be better than Blood-the last vampire.

it looks interesting though.

she gave a whole new meaning to the words, "other woman" in her role as chisato in fumo chitai with karasawa toshiaki as her lover... too bad, after 19 episodes and 6 months of airing, this wonderful drama must come to an end...(but it seems others had come to hate her more in her role here...) i can't seem to bring myself to hate a woman as pretty as her. and a great actress too!
