Crush Of The Day: Adachi Rika
Well, my interest in cute actress Rika Adachi has been pretty well documented here on the zdorama site ever since noticing her for the first time in GeGeGe No Nyobo, but for some reason, my interest in her has been increasing, and I've found that I’ve been spending most of my time looking for pictures of her online, to great success! Seems Rika's spent a good many years doing the gravure thing, and the awesome and eye-openingl scans that generous folks have been sharing have been only fueling my obsession!
Picture after picture, I found my attraction to her only increasing, but the best was yet to come when I finally got ahold of some of her VIDEOS! Far from the wide-eyed and demure girl I was expecting, DVDs like Kujira Tokidoki Uma and Maru Sankaku Heart showed me a sultry side of Rika that I'd never IMAGINED- With scene after scene of Rika rocking the skimpiest of bikinis, I was blown away by how sexy and RISQUE the videos were! Considering this was made by WANI BOOKS, whose idea of sexy was dressing Koizumi Kyoko in an eggplant suit, these were clearly gravure idol videos for a new generation!
By the time I'd finished watching the videos, Rika had officially made the move from "Cute and Freshly Scrubbed" to "Hot, Sexy and Sassy", and I'd never look back again! Thanks to the shared efforts of everyone online, I'd become a full-blown Rika Adachi fanatic!
This is doubly amazing when you consider that though I initially fell in love with her in GeGeGe No Nyobo, I've hardly seen anything with her in it drama or movie-wise. She just hasn't been in that many things yet but now it's quite exciting to think of all the future projects she will be involved in as she gets older and becomes more well-known. Who knows, a Rika Adachi headlined show may be coming around sooner than we think! At least, we can pray! For now, I'll take the bit parts she's doing and of course all that gorgeous gravure goodness to see me through...!
PS: It was amazing to see so many pics of Ms. Adachi scanned from recent issues of compact Idol magazine BOMB. Back in the day, BOMB magazine was just about the best place to get pictorials of your favorite idol girls (it was there that I first set eyes on gals such as Anzai Hiroko, Fukada Kyoko, and unbelievably, Hamasaki Ayumi) and it was nice and reassuring to see that the sturdy magazine is still around!
