Young actress Kawashima Umika (16) will star in her first drama called “Heaven’s Flower” next season, a romantic mystery in which she is going to disguise herself as an emotionless female assassin. It’s her first role that is not about a pure and innocent young girl.

“There is pressure as well, but first of all I’m looking forward to this role. I’ve always wanted to play an evil role!” she said. The role will also require a couple of action scenes about which she commented, “I’m going to receive some action training before the filming, because there will even be scenes with pistols and knifes.” Yet she didn’t seem to be nervous at all and added enthusiastically, “I hope and think that I will be able to show you a new side of me.”

The story is set in the year 2060, in a barren world without any flowers due to a failed experiment. Food is scarce and the whole world is in a crisis. Japan is split into several districts with some of them being better off than the other, but there are also those that have been left behind like the so-called “Seventh District.” The protagonist Ai played by Kawashima, is a member of a group of assassins called the “Last Garden,” who live and kill in this abandoned town. However, one day Ai meets a certain detective and falls in love with him and begins to be swallowed up by her fate involving trust, betrayal and a big secret surrounding her birth.

The detective will be played by D-BOYS’ Araki Hirofumi (27) while Ayano Go (28) will play his commanding officer. The leader of the assassins will be played by actress Mita Yoshiko (69), who hasn’t appeared in a drama series since 2006. Actor Honda Hirotaru (59) will also appear as the boss of the Chinese mafia who is about to become the biggest enemy of Ai.

The producers of “Heaven’s Flower” already created the hit drama “Around 40,” while its chief producer Iyoda Hidenori already produced other popular dramas such as “Mr. Brain” or “Shinzanmono.” The character designer of “Ryomaden,” will also help in creating the perfect outfits and makeup suitable for such a dark scenario.

This exciting new drama will start on TBS on January 14 and air every Friday at twenty past midnight.

Umika, besides being a talented and uber kawaii young lady, is actively taking part in her agency's fund raising efforts. She is part of Les Pro Entertainment, as is Yui Aragaki, and Idoling!!! members Ai Okawa and Ami Kikuchi.
