Today it was announced that young actress Kitano Kie (20) is going to star in a special drama called �gUnfair the special ~Double Meaning / Nijuu Teigi~�h on Fuji TV this fall.
�gUnfair�h was a very popular detective drama starring Shinohara Ryoko (37), and it aired back in 2006. The series also spawned a special drama in the same year and a movie in 2007. On September 17th, the series�f second movie, �gUnfair the answer�g, will see Shinohara will finally reprise her role as detective �eYukihira Natsumi�e. Meanwhile, Kitano will have to prove that she�fs a worthy successor to the series in her new role.
Kitano will play �eMochizuki Akira�e, a new detective who just transferred to the homicide division that Yukihira left after the events in the original drama. Mochizuki is just as hot-blooded as Yukihira and even boldly goes against her superiors in order to hunt down those behind the mass-kidnapping that�fs confounding the police, all while carrying the weight of a trauma from her past.
The young actress always wanted to play a detective and didn�ft shy away from action scenes. She commented, �gIt was difficult to coolly knock down taller guys, but it still was a lot of fun and I even was able to practice sword fighting. I want to become an actress who can also do action scenes.�h
She also playfully raved about her senior, �gShinohara Ryoko is just so cool. To be honest, I even copied her hair style (laughs). I want to look like a capable woman with straight black hair.�h
Appearing alongside Kitano are Terajima Susumu, Abe Sadao, and Kato Masaya, all three reprising their roles from the original drama. Another new addition to the team, a skilled forensic scientist, will be played by Yamamoto Koji.
Excitedly, Shinohara and her co-actor from the movie, Sato Koichi (50) will also make guest appearances in Kitano�fs special drama as well.

^^ It aired on Sept. 23rd and has been available for a while now. Not as good as the series but better than the first movie, I'd recommend it if you liked the series. _________________

Ryoko Shinohara to play Natsuki Yukihara in final 'Unfair' movie
Shinohara Ryoko will be back as the police detective Yukihara Natsumi in the last movie of the "Unfair" series which is due to be shown in September. The movie which is titled "Unfair the end" continues from the last installment "Unfair the answer" in 2011, will also bring back regulars such as Sato Koichi, Abe Sadao, Kato Masaya, Terajima Susumu and AKB48's Mukaichi Mion who had played Yukihara's daughter 8 years ago when she was only 7 years old. Mukaichi who was a child actor and made her debut in the "Unfair" series, stopped her career due to her junior high entrance exams and entered showbiz again by joining AKB48 in 2013.
The "Unfair" series began as a drama series shown on FujiTV back in January 2006 and had one SP in October the same year and two movies in 2007 and 2011. However, the last movie in 2011 which achieved ticket sales of JPY 2.34 billion, did not answer questions such as who had killed Yukihara's father so the final movie is expected to tie up all the loose ends.
