Recently, my wife and I have been watching a Japanese television drama called "Ace wo Nerae." I have only seen one Japanese TV drama from beginning-to-end so far. This one is pretty enjoyable to watch.
"Ace no Nerae" is a live-action drama based on a famous comic. It is about a first year high school student (a girl named Hiromi) who takes up tennis. The story deals with: conflicts between players, jealousy, the coach's personal struggles, the main character's drive to be a good tennis player, and young love.
I look forward to watching the show either each Saturday night on TV Japan, or on video on subsequent days.
I have been especially impressed with one of the actresses on the show. She is a young Japanese actress named "Becky." It seems to me that whenever she appears on television, eyes are drawn to her. She is very "telegenic."
I don't think that Becky will ever have her own series, but I can forsee a long career of supporting character and variety show panelist roles. She reminds me a lot of an actress named Ranran Suzuki.

Here is a cute picture that I took of my son yesterday. He was wearing a reindeer hat that he got last year at Christmastime.
