Two weeks ago it was announced that Toda Erika and Miura Haruma would star in Fuji TV’s upcoming Monday drama, “Taisetsu na Koto wa Subete Kimi ga Oshiete Kureta“. We’ve learned that they will play an engaged couple and that they will depict the roles of teachers. The interesting part about the story was that Miura’s character is going to be in a relationship with a student at his school.

Today, Fuji TV has finally announced that the girl in that forbidden relationship will be played by young actress Takei Emi (16), and it will mark her first role in a Monday drama.



Hikari (Takei) and Shuji (Miura) will spend the night before the opening ceremony of the new school term together, not knowing that they are going to become teacher-student the next day. Once she finds out that he is her homeroom teacher, and that he is in such a oh-so-perfect relationship and is about to get married, her jealousy makes her want to destroy their relationship. However, knowing of the pain and darkness in Hikari’s heart, Shuji gradually gets the urge to help her out of this misery instead of trying use all of his energy to save his relationship with Natsumi (Toda). A truly complicated love triangle full of love and hate.

More than 800 girls auditioned for the role of Hikari, the key person of the whole drama.




Takei spoke about getting the role: “I was really surprised and jumping for joy when I was picked for a role in a Monday drama. I can’t wait for the filming to begin. I’d like to work hard with everyone at the set and hope that many people are going to watch this drama.”

The producers also stated why they’ve picked Takei for the role: “Takei was simply magnificent. You can see her amazing willpower in her eyes. We did the screening by judging all the girls from their appearance on the monitor, but in her case we were still able to feel her intensity as if she was standing right in front of us. I think she is the perfect choice for the role of the student that will be able to drive the two teachers played by Toda Erika and Miura Haruma into a corner.”

“Taisetsu na Koto wa Subete Kimi ga Oshiete Kureta” will start in January and air every Monday at 9 PM on Fuji TV.
