GReeeeN gets first drama theme with "ROOKIES"
Sun, March 30, 2008 (11:03pm EDT)
The four-member band GReeeeN has been asked to do their first theme song for a television drama series. The song, titled "Kiseki," will be used in the TBS baseball drama "ROOKIES."
GReeeeN started writing the song in February, the day after 3 of their members took the national dental exams. All 4 members were dentistry students until these 3 graduated this past January.
"Kiseki" goes on sale May 28, though ringtones will be available starting on April 19, the day "ROOKIES" premieres.

Avex announces compilation, drama project to celebrate 20th anniversary
Mon, March 31, 2008 (12:10am EDT)
This summer, Avex plans to release a compilation mix album to celebrate its 20th anniversary, which is officially on April 11. Tentatively titled "20 Nen 200 Kyoku," the collection is said to fit 200 of the company's biggest hits on 4 CDs. In all, the included songs have shipped a total of 200 million copies (counting singles and albums).
In conjunction with the album, Avex is producing a series of drama shorts that will be aired on TV Asahi (Kanto Local). The series' title is a play on words - "Otome" normally means "maiden," but the name is written as which are the characters for "sound" and "woman."
The drama consists of 2-minute episodes, with each one being an individual story that is themed around one of the songs on the compilation. Only about 100 of the songs are planned to be used. Episodes will air late at night Monday through Thursday (at roughly 1:23am), starting on April 7. Since 4 episodes will be broadcast each week, the project is scheduled to last for approximately 6 months.
Each week will feature an Avex artist or talento. The first week will star Ami Suzuki, with the first episode themed around Nanase Aikawa's "Yume Miru Shoujo Ja Irarenai" and the second based on Every Little Thing's "Mata A#a."
misono will star in the second week. Other participating artists include TRF's YU-KI, AAA's Misako Uno, and actress Yuri Nakamura (formerly of YURIMARI).
While the compilation is scheduled for release this summer, Avex also has plans to distribute the dramas through DVD and the internet. No target sale date for the DVD has been announced, but it will reportedly include special cuts of the dramas, each lengthened by a couple minutes. The regular episodes will be available online at the project's website one week after broadcast.

"Chiritotechin" ratings set record low, "Hitomi" also starts poorly
Tue, April 1, 2008 (2:56am EDT)
NHK's recently-ended morning drama series "Chiritotechin" wrapped up its run with average ratings of 15.9% in the Kanto region, which sets the new record for the lowest-rated Asadora since Video Research Ltd. began collecting viewership data in 1964. The previous all-time low was held by the 2004 series "Tenka," which averaged 16.2%.
"Chiritotechin" fared better in the Kansai area, where it averaged 17.0%. But despite the show's weak ratings, NHK recently announced a spinoff titled "Chiritotechin Gaiden," scheduled to air in July.
The current Asadora, "Hitomi," premiered on Monday with a 16.5% rating in the Kanto area and 16.2% in the Kansai region. This makes it the second-worst start in history behind last year's "Dondo Bare," whose premiere achieved only 14.9% (Kanto) and 14.2% (Kansai).
