New Shingo Drama starting April - "My Invisible Girlfriend"
Wow... didn't expect him to have another drama this early, seem like drama producers love him so much, haha.
Kasuka na Kanojo (My Invisible Girlfriend), will start airing April, on FujiTV Tuesday 10 PM slot.
Shingo's role is Kamiyama Akira, a math teacher in junior high school who has ability to sense supernatural things like ghosts. "Junior high school teacher" immediately reminds me of "Suzuki-sensei" and that's why I'm hoping I can see him in glasses again like his role in Galileo.
He has played a night school English teacher before in HR, but this would be his first time playing a true school teacher and it's also his first time starring a Tuesday drama.
The heroine will be played by Anne, who plays Akane, a former teacher and also a ghost.
Drama's Storyline
I hate ghosts... not "scared" but "hate".
They look damp, gloomy, and self-centered. They appear in people's memories photos as they like, they live in people's house without paying rent....
People often says "I'm scared of ghosts", but we really shouldn't be scared of them and let them be proud of it. We should just ignore them or throw them salt.
But one day... I met a weird ghost. Clumsy and bad at dealing things, somehow I just can't leave this female ghost alone.
Then, somehow... I started to feel care about her.
The lead is a psychic junior high school teacher! His partner is the annoying female ghost!!
These two will solve real problems that happens at school...
The drama is a mix of romantic comedy, friendship and school drama.
Cast Comments
Katori Shingo:
I hate ghosts. I'm scared of them. I've been trying to avoid any jobs related to ghosts.
Never thought the day that I fall in love with a ghost will come...
Anne-san must be a very beautiful ghost, but I'm scared of ghosts. I hope she won't fright or scare me and just stay beautiful.
It helps me that it's gonna be a romantic comedy. I will do my best filming with ghost!
And I'll do my best to be a teacher that the students would like that they call me "Senseeeii!" while crying and hug me in the last episode.
Anne:
Demon -> evil woman -> ghost. It's a complete combo!
I'm not afraid of anything anymore!
But a ghost is a former human so they don't have any power.
I'd like to be a ghost that is not scary and people would think that I'm a nice ghost.
I've met Katori-san a few times in variety shows, but it'll be the first time acting together with him,
I'm nervous. We must have many scenes together, it makes me nervous. But I'll do my best!
Kimura Jun (producer):
It's an impossible story. A teacher's partner being a ghost. But this impossible duo will solve realistic problems.
We hope the audience will laugh at Katori-san and Anne-san's awkward conversations.
Katori-san is playing Kamiyama Akira, a junior highschool who is the tight type. Anne-san will play Akane, the innocent and simple-minded ghost.
There are many hidden problems in school. The students would like send the SOS signal, but who would they send the signal to?
And that's when! Kamiyama Akira will be pushed around by Akane, the ghost teacher.

Sounds like the type of drama that I won't watch, if it's not Shingo. Oh well... let's see... At least, I don't hate the whole idea... like how I did with "Shiawase ni narou yo" since I found out Kuroki Meisa was the heroine.
I'm looking forward to see his interactions with the students^^
