Horikita Maki, Okada Masaki and Shimazaki Haruka to appear in ‘ATARU’ special
The 18-year-old idol Shimazaki plays the 36-year-old ‘Bimajo (=beautiful witch)’ Mizuno Rumi, who is a member of the Metropolitan Police Department’s mobile forensics unit. In the drama, a similar role was played by former AKB48 member Mitsumune Kaoru.
She stated, “The age difference is huge, but it should be a lot of fun to play this role. I’ll be able to gain so much valuable experience by taking in the detailed guidance of the director and by watching the performances of the other actors up-close.”
Since I am a fan of detective dramas , of course I loved ATARU as well... But to imagine Paruru in
Keishicho (MPD) is a little too hard to digest for me
Anyways, this role is more challenging since she is playing a role of a
36 year old Forensic specialist, there is not much room for errors.
Well, I'll be more than impressed if she manages to pull this off well...
Anyways, looking forward to more mystery, action and comedy with ATARU in January! If you guys haven't watched the series yet, definitely check it out... There is not much Kaoru in it (pretty much as there is KojiHaru in
PRICELESS) but the series is quite good actually...
Definitely worth the watch!
