Here you thought my Stalker's guides would only cover hot guys : ).  Karina is one of my favourite actresses I watched. I think it's because I have never seen her play anyone overly girly, nor is she masculine.  The shows I have seen her in are Reincarnation, Ashita No Joe, Bambino!, Love Shuffle, Freeter, Ie o Kau., and  Summer Nude.

Reincarnation is a horror film where she is the lead and the show does not end where you think it would. 

She is the love interest in: 

 Love Shuffle - This show, hmm, what can I say about this other than, watch it?! Four couples switch partners with each other to see if they are really with their destined partner.

 Freeter  - Nice slice of life drama where she is the "boss", sort of character.  The lead is played by Ninomiya Kazunari 

Summer Nude - Jilted at the altar and spends the summer on the beach to sort out her life, what will happen when she meets Yamashita Tomohisa?

She has persevered through some pretty heavy controversy in 2014 but is still making movies and dramas as of 2017.  That makes me admire her even more.

While I don't sit down and go "ok today I am going to watch a Karina Drama/Movie", I am always very happy when I find out she is the co-star to the Idols I am watching. I already know I won't hate her.  Not only is she one of Japan's most beautiful women, she is also a capable actress.
