Emi's really been lookin' quite good lately, here she is yesterday at a press conference for the 25th anniversary of the "13th All-Japan national beautiful girl contest", not sure about the other 2.
TV Asahi has just announced that they are going to adapt the mystery masterpiece �eW no Higeki�e into a prime time drama series next season, starring the young and busy actress Takei Emi.
�eW no Higeki�e is based on a mystery novel of the same name by Natsuki Shizuko, which sold over 2.5 million copies. It was already adapted into a movie starring Yakushimaru Hiroko in 1984 and a drama special starring Kanno Miho in 2010. For its first adaptation into a drama series, scriptwriter Terada Toshio (�gKoshonin�h) is going to make a few changes to fit it into the present-day society and to create an all-new exciting viewing experience.
For Takei this will be her first starring role in a prime time drama and moreover it�fs going to be a double role. She commented, �gI�fm looking at the double role as a great chance to gather more experience and to test my own acting abilities. It�fs just great to be able to play two different roles at the same time.�h
Takei is going to play the roles of �eMako Watsuji�e, the daughter of a very wealthy and powerful zaibatsu, and of �eKurasawa Satsuki�e, a girl raised in an orphanage with a desire of revenge burning inside her heart. Due to the fact that they both look absolutely identical, they decide to change places in order to experience each other�fs completely different lives. Their little experiment is followed by various tragedies and other incidents.
She commented, �gThe daughter of a major zaibatsu and a show club dancer. I haven�ft played anything similar to both roles so far. The producer told me that he wants to me show my evil side as best as I can, so I think that I�fll have a lot of fun showing everyone a new side of me. Personally I�fd love to discover an unknown side of me as well! (laughs) I hope you will look forward to the drama and my performance. I�fll do my best!�h
�eW no Higeki�f will air every Thursday at 9:00 pm.

Emi from the March issue of Bomb.
Full cast revealed for upcoming drama �eW no Higeki�f starring Takei Emi
On March 8th, TV Asahi finally revealed more details about the cast of the upcoming drama �eWo no Higeki�e, which stars young actress Takei Emi in a double role.
�eW no Higeki�e is based on a mystery novel of the same name by Natsuki Shizuko, which sold over 2.5 million copies. The script is handled by Terada Toshio (�gKoshonin�h), who�fll make sure to create an all-new exciting viewing experience.
The drama along with the plot was already announced a couple of weeks ago. Takei plays the two roles of �eWatsuji Mako�e, the daughter of a very wealthy and powerful zaibatsu, and �eKurasawa Satsuki�e, a show club dancer raised in an orphanage and with a desire of revenge burning inside her heart. Due to the fact that they both look absolutely identical, they decide to change places in order to experience each other�fs completely different lives. Their little experiment is followed by various tragedies and other incidents.
For Takei this will be her first starring role, let alone double, in a prime time drama, but she�fs not doing it alone. Fukuda Saki and Gouriki Ayame, who are both from the same agency as Takei, will appear alongside her. With further appearances by Kiritani Kenta, Matsushita Yuki, Wakamura Mayumi, Terada Minori, Nogiwa Yoko, Nakamura Shunsuke, Takahashi Issei, Takeda Kohei, and Kaneda Akio, she truly can rely on a wonderful cast.
Fukuda and Gouriki are going to play fellow dancers at the show club where Mako will have to work at instead of Satsuki. They both aren�ft exactly nice towards her and bully her on every occasion. Gouriki�fs character comes off as a kind girl at first glimpse, but she actually has a very malicious personality. Matsushita plays the owner of the club.
The producer commented, �gWe were able to surround our young and fresh heroine, played by Takei, with people who possess very strong and individual personalities.�h
He continued, �gThe selling point of a show club are the great dancing skills of its dancers and I think the scenes that were filmed inside an actual club are going to be fantastic. With the intense battle that�fs going on between the girls, there are going to be some truly flashy scenes!�h
�eW no Higeki�f will air every Thursday at 9:00 pm.
