Mano Erina shows off her schoolgirl charm

Singer Mano Erina updated her blog today with a picture where she’s posing and look very cute in a charming school cardigan. Even though she’s just turned 20, she’s still hanging on to her youthful look!

Mano wrote on her official blog, “I’ve just come back from rehearsals for the Fan Club event on the 16th! I want to have a great event that will put smiles on everyone’s faces!” She added, “There will also be a collection box at the event for donations to the Tohoku earthquake relief efforts. Everyone who’s coming to the event, let’s make the power of your smiles reach everyone in the disaster area… and in the event on the 16th, there’s something I want to show everyone (*^ー^*) And I’m trying something new so I hope it’ll be a success!”

Fans commented excitedly about the event, saying “Something you want to show us? Trying something new? I wonder what it is, I really can’t wait!”, and “Is the thing you want to show us maybe… chugging an entire drink now that you’re 20? Haha!”

FRIDAY illustrates the life of workers at Fukushima Dai-ichi

In continuation of last week’s article featuring several heartbreaking pictures from regions that were severely hit by the Great Tohoku Kanto Earthquake and the following tsunamis, the weekly tabloid and pictorial magazine FRIDAY once again focused their main story on the aftermath of this calamity.

For this week’s edition the magazine was able to illustrate the life of those that are struggling to keep the situation at Fukushima Dai-ichi (Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant) from getting any worse. The government and the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) are careful not to let the workers and helpers speak too much in public, but the magazine still managed to get inside the two hotels that are being used as their living quarters where some of them even have to sleep in the corridors.

FRIDAY is not allowed to show the faces of the workers, but even without their expressions it’s easy to see how frustrating it must be to live and work for them.

Check out the pictures below.

Japan 2011 Earthquake: ON/OFF Is Safe!!

Good evening, everyone!
This is Hidayuki.

As we already known, there's been a massive earthquake and tsunami hit in Japan yesterday. It all started at 1446 (Japan time) with earthquakes which eventually causing damage with blackouts, fire and tsunami. I won't talk much about this since many sites have cover it.

So, I was worried when I saw the news on TV and the internet. I'm worried of  my friends and idols in Japan. One of my japanese friend I met on Twitter is safe. Mugi-san, claimed to be fine. Though I hope nothing terrible happed to her since yesterday's earthquake in Japan is pretty much damaging.

I search for news on the safety of my idols - ON/OFF and Hello! Project. H!P members are confirmed safe. I have posted it before. (I actually just reposted them from Hello!SayuNii Blog). Everyone from Up-Front Agency is fine. And I'm glad that my beloved ON/OFF (Sakamoto Kazuya & Sakamoto Naoya) is fine as well.

ON/OFF was in their hometown, Fukuoka in the past few days until yesterday. And when the earthquakes happens, they are still in Fukuoka which leaves me in ease. The elder brother, Naoya has posted something about the incident. We can assume that they are safe. Here is the post:

Now. .

Category: ON / OFF Wataru Nao

We, by chance came to Kyushu, the information about this from yesterday's earthquake on TV.

8.4 magnitude heard, and I think it happened but we have never experienced so far, now just imagine a terrible feeling.

Everyone, how safe would you?

Among those missing are those who mite you passed away or not,
Words I say lightly,

Is everyone so please Dearimasu're safe. .

Aftershocks still like the tsunami or because they want to know what will happen when the state,
Carefully whether, as your body guard, please.

Although my friends and idols are safe, but I am still worried about the earthquake since there'll surely be aftershocks. I pray for Japan, please be alright Japan. I feel bad when I watch the news, I saw the tsunami hits Sendai, how the houses, shops and building shook from the earthquake, and then how the wave brings down such big houses. I'm really worried. I hope everything will be fine. I wish I could follow my country's Mercy Malaysia off to Japan. I really want to help Japan.

ℒℴvℯ,
