Fave Japanese Actresses

Immensely versatile actress with great aura and screen presence. She has enormous potential. My current crush.

She's been a super fave for years, remarkable thespian with an impressive filmography. The first J actress I was mad about :)

P-O-W-E-R ! Truly impressive in whatever film she's in.

More under the spotlight in recent years and that's a good thing.

Found out about her with Hot Road.  She's also into music and is making a successful come back.

I like how versatile she can be, moving from mainstream to indie projects all the time. I like her style, subtle yet effective. 

Expressive actress, she's gradually making a name for herself and that's a good thing.

Very promising. Teen angst at its best in 'Pieta in the toilet', so moving in 'Her love boils bathwater'...

She's got charisma and strength.

Tremble all you want, she is great !

Always great, whatever she's in !

very promising young actress, already been in several fine movies

Way too underrated, she's got a good filmo and  a great screen presence.

Experienced actress, absolutely unforgettable in Memories of Matsuko, Tetsuya Nakashima's masterpiece. 

We don't see enough of her and that's bad. I like her style.

she's been in countless good films

Possibly the best J actress of her generation. Tell me you weren't moved to tears when you watched "Her love boils bathwater"

She can act in about any genre but I think she's really great in comedies. Killer Virgin Road :)

She's had ups and downs but overall she delivers. Incredible perf in Helter Skelter.
