MIDNIGHT DORAMA

TV Asahi caters to fujoshi with new drama
Mon, January 7, 2008 (4:45pm EST)



Starting on January 19, TV Asahi will air a drama series titled "Fujoshi Deka." The lead will be played by the current Asahi Beer Image Girl, Mai Shinohara, who made her acting debut in last season's "Shigeshoshi" on TV Tokyo.

As the title indicates, Shinohara plays a police officer who is also a fujoshi (a term referring to women who are fans of stories involving male homosexual romance). She gets fired up whenever there's an incident involving a good-looking man, and she solves the cases in her own unique way.

The drama will air late on Saturday nights, in the 1:30am-2:00am time slot.
