NHK announced on the 21st that Kawaguchi Haruna (24) will be replacing Sawajiri Erika (33) in the Taiga drama, Kirin ga Kuru. This is her first role in a Taiga drama.

Kawaguchi will be playing, Kichō (Nōhime; Lady Nō), Saito Dosan's daughter, and later Oda Nobunaga's legal wife. NHK started looking for Sawajiri Erika's replacement after Sawajiri was arrested for dɾᴜg possession. Sawajiri had already filmed up to the 10th episode.

Kirin ga Kuru will begin its broadcast on January 5. Kawaguchi's role has many scenes with the main character Akechi Mitsuhide, who is played by Hasegawa Hiroki. According to NHK, Kawaguchi's character will appear starting from the first episode, as originally planned.

Unexpected!!
Too bad, Goriki Ayame.

14. [+1358 / -24]
A little surprised

15. [+2509 / -152]
I wonder if it's because they could find anyone else...
Everyone is very busy.

16. [+1636 / -82]
Now this is unexpected!

17. [+3335 / -30]
She's quite young to be replacing Erika.

19. [+675 / -51]
Safe choice~

20. [+948 / -38]
I was so surprised I went "Whaaaaaattt?!!"

21. [+1613 / -261]
She doesn't fit...
Well, good luck anyway! I wonder if she knows horse riding.

22. [+368 / -759]
That's quite a downgrade.

55. [+1021 / -59]
>>22
I don't consider Sawajiri Erika an A-list actress.

23. [+3360 / -49]
Good luck!
This is a really good chance for you.
I will be rooting for you.

26. [+3351 / -156]
This girl is pretty.

She's currently dating a RIZIN martial artist, right?

Good things keep coming to her

27. [+1122 / -18]
Surprised.
Never expected it to be her.

28. [+2482 / -28]
If you think about how old Nohime is, she's the right age

30. [+2872 / -74]
Nice~ She looks like she would suit wearing a kimono.
She's also cute. Nice~

31. [+1403 / -39]
I've never seen her act but I always watch Taiga historicals so I'm gonna watch it!
Please do your best!

32. [+2442 / -106]
I like Haruna-chan.
It's going to be hard work but please try your best.

33. [+4156 / -27]
If she manages to act out her role perfectly, her reputability is gonna soar! Good luck!

34. [+1809 / -28]
Luck has turned in her favour.

35. [+59 / -362]
I would have rather they used a nameless newcomer.

37. [+1445 / -19]
I read in some article that said that it would be good if they chose someone who has been in a historical drama before and is trained in manners and etiquette but... I'm glad they've decided on someone!!
Do your best!

38. [+2236 / -37]
From a bewitching Sawajiri Nohime to a sweet Nohime!

43. [+794 / -8]
Congratulations to those who guessed correctly in the prediction threads (lol)

48. [+2266 / -20]
An exceptional promotion for Kawaguchi Haruna! Who would have thought, from playing a yankee in last year's "Waratte wa Ikenai" to a Taiga! I'm watching!

51. [+483 / -114]
Kawaguchi Haruna has a beautiful face but will she be able to give off the dignified air of Nohime?
I'm worried about her acting ability.

52. [+867 / -8]
She doesn't have any representative works so I hope this will be the one
