Ikuta Erika (Ikuchan) / 1st Gen

mini-photo book that came with it (big spirit comics)

Oh Ikuchan is still growing, she's now taller than Nanase by a cm lol

 

Ikuchan's always been slightly taller than Naachan tho? by 1 or 2 centimeters at least. Ikuchan's closer to Maiyan's height.

Smaller still (or smaller than Naachan) is Wakatsuki, which is surprising lol.

 

After read this preview, I want this magz too!

Honestly I dont really have interest to Asahinagu and all idol drama/movie in general. But I getting corious to Iku's Kumamoto dialect. It's sound that she will play most chalenging character.

Ichido Nene slightly like Wakamiya Shinobu from Chihayafuru. Both are villain and have little screentime, but their presence might steal attention! I hope Iku can carry Ichido Nene as good as Matsuoka Mayu potrayed Wakamiya Shinobu.

 

IkuNana is indeed a beautiful pair. Lovely.

I have to disagree. I think she looks great with that hair style. Btw, didn't they do similar hairdo for her in the Girl’s rule MV?

 

Last 3 Osaka Le Mis performances from Ikuchan today (1300) , tomorrow (1300, 1800) then probably some "rest days" until the Nagoya leg from 9/25~

so she's gonna be in Tokyo in time for Asahinagu's opening 9/22 ... there'll be another round of aisatsu from the cast on 9/22 at Toho Shinjuku for the afternoon 3pm-ish and 6pm-ish showing ...

The 3.5 position her dorkiness always forgets

 

Awww... these two are so lovely. Look at Ikuchan's expression... so cute!

Apparently I've always been mistaken in judging the girls' height. I thought Maiyan is much taller than everyone. I thought Yumi was much taller. I thought Karin is not that petite... and the list goes on. Not complaining, just noticing my mistakes.

Ikr. She even taped Tuesday Surprise during Sendai concert period! This kid is monster. She manage to hit her stage perf, magz shots, Asahi PR, and taping variety show.

And on the top of those activities, she still give her best effort to greet her fans. Also stay genki whereever she is. She enjoy her business. She need to play Tsunemori Akane.

 

she also updates her blogs , though not that often but she does , am expecting an update this/next week

 

I hope that she'll not only stay healthy despite all these activities, but also that she'll be able to graduate from college. No, it's not my business, I just think it would be cool and fitting for her.

 

What is she studying in college ?

 

Music. She's studying at a prestigious music college.

 

She is attending Piano Departement of
Tokyo Ondai, Tokyo College of Music. A private college.

She mention in Gogonama that she is taking break. She didnt mention how long, but ppls assume it's one year break. If so, next spring she will back to Uni.

 

What about her role next year on Mozart? Do you think it would interfere with her schooling? I had assumed she went on hiatus from school because she's already getting theatrical roles. So if the roles continue to roll in not sure why she shouldn't just learn in the job.

 

I guess, her uni break having to do with the fact that she being casted in two musical, esp LeMis.

She said in an interview that she taking audition for LeMis just for try. If she didnt pass Romijuri then she still had LeMis. But then she passed both audition. I'm not quite sure which one, though. QuickJapan.

Romijuri run for approximately, six month, for rehearshal and actual perf. But LeMis is much longer. Almost a year for rehearshal and tour.

Formal education still important for her and her carrer, imo.

It's 2 hours show!!! There's a cooking segment too. Ikuchan should've learn many things from that segment.
