Meisa Kuroki Appears on Take Five; Steals Things, Turns Me On

Meisa's Back in TAKE FIVE!

  Seems like quite awhile since I've had the pleasure of feasting on Meisa Kuroki's lovely features, so it was a nice surprise to see her appearing in the mid-drama arc of the Toshiaki Karasawa/ Matsuyuki Yasuko crime drama TAKE FIVE as a svelte covert theft operative giving the guys a run for their money!

As you can see, Meisa looks just as fine as ever, and in fact her "look" for this drama reminded me not just a little of her role in the ARASHI SP "Saigo No Yakusoku", itself a similiar crime scenario where the bad guys have infiltrated a building to carry out their evil deeds. In both they featured a very demure and sexily spectacled Meisa scrambling around in the dark, only this time, she's on the OTHER side of the law!

And if this reappearance of Meisa on my radar wasn't ENOUGH to celebrate, they even took the time to shoot the episode at Yokohama Business Park, that stunning architectural Water Park that ALWAYS seems to turn up in these dramas as a pretty backdrop...
I'd see this Water Park in the backgrounds of all of these different shows and just wonder where the HECK it was! It wasn't until fellow blogger runpup pointed out it was the Yokohama Business Park (along with a link to the Park's site and even more pictures!) that the mystery was solved! LOLOL

Anyway, looks like Meisa's part of the villainous gang for two parts, so I'll get to see her again in Episode 6 of Take Five, too bad I couldn't see her in an even bigger role here- Maybe next time!
