NHK producing "Twin Spica" drama adaptation
Actress Nanami Sakuraba (16) will be playing the lead in NHK's upcoming drama series "Futatsu no Spica." The show is based on Ko Yaginuma's manga of the same name, also known in English as "Twin Spica." The comic was previously turned into an anime series in 2003, but this will be its first live-action treatment.
The sci-fi series is set in the near future at a space academy, where a group of youngsters are training to become astronauts. Sakuraba plays Asumi Kamogawa, a student whose father is a rocket engineer (Masahiro Takashima). Her mother died due to a injury caused by a fallen rocket, but despite that and her father's objections, she chose to pursue the path of an astronaut.
The show is being produced with the help of JAXA, Japan's national aerospace agency. NHK will broadcast the series on Thursday nights at 8:00pm, starting on June 11. Sakuraba's supporting cast includes Yuichi Nakamura, Shunsuke Daito, Rika Adachi, and Yuko Takayama.
brb to add more info~
i like the manga, i hope they'll make the drama extra special

I don't know much about the cast other than Shunsuke Daito. I wanna see the other side of this guy apart from his previous roles as a bad boy (CZ) and a cold-hearted turned dignified brother (HK).

Am referring to Shunsuke Daito. Do you know him ? He has been working with Oguri Shun in a drama (Hana Kimi) and movies (CZ & CZ II).

I watched episode 01 last June 18 in RAW. There's not much comedy in it, talks more about space and rockets. I find the main girl Asumi really pretty. And Mukai Osamu has role in the drama too. But let's see where this series leads too.

just finished watching the first ep. daito and nakamura are hot. and they bottle rocket guy!! he's from atashinchi no danshi! kinda surprised me when i saw him.
--> Yeah~ The rocket guy is Mukai Osamu. One reason I decided to watch the drama is because of him. LOL. THe story is getting a little bit interesting. Something that has got to do with Asumi's dad and Mukai's family
