Nana Mizuki's first single and released song "Tsugazakura" つがざくら

In 1993, she released Compact Cassette single "Tsugazakura" (つがざくら lit. "Phyllodoce Nipponica") as "Nana Kondo". However, she passed the audition of game Noël: La Neige and became a seiyuu.

I joined Nana Mizuki Fans on facebook.

Since she is trained as an enka singer, No wonder she sang enka. Her voice is beautiful and I cannot imagine that from listening to jpop, I now listen to her enka song here.

Meiko Kaji: Sasori & Lady Snowblood (KILL BILL)

For KILL BILL fans and Asian film fans, I know that some of you also like Jeon Ji hyun/Gianna Jun, or other asian/cult/ grindhouse actresses.

When I remembered about the 70s especially the pinky violence. I remembered my favorite cult actress which is Masako Ota or known as MEIKO KAJI 梶 芽衣子.


I found out after I watched Hana to Hebi 2. I am curious about the original Hana To Hebi movie and I searched about pinky violence, pink eiga, roman porno and then I clicked a youtube related video to Meiko Kaji.


But still, thanks to Tarantino because Meiko Kaji became more active again in 2005 and fans posted vids and pics on the internet.

My favorite films of hers are:

the greatest exploitation/WIP (women in prison) film:

Sasori trailer

Lady Snowblood trailer



I have an account on youtube henyongsakuragi and my most viewable video is this:



The next video is not mine but this is one of my favorite songs of hers:



Cool opening of her short tv series:

Best of all, Just search her on google and google videos using Meiko kaji and if you want to know her more just search her in kanji:  梶 芽衣子 or   梶芽衣子
