Ayumi's old doramas and movies

[SunshineSlayer]

I've been trying to collect all of Ayu's pre-avex videos, but have found that most of these are nearly impossible to find.(even on Japanese P2P networks) I haven't seen a comprehensive list of her doramas and movies posted here before, so I thought I would start one.

Here is the list of all the doramas and movies she was in between 92 and 97. (Some under the name of Hamasaki Kurumi) If anyone knows of any others, please let me know:

Anime(voice overs): Art of Fighting(1992)

Dorama: Twins Teacher(1993), Miseinen(1995), 同居人カップルの推理旅行(I'm not sure of the English title, but Babelfish translated it as 'Inference travelling of roommate couple'), Yami no Purple Eye

Movies: Sumomomomomo, Nagisa no Sindbad, Gakko 2, Ladies Ladies Ladies

I suspect that she was in even more than that though since between the time that she dropped out of middle school and when she got her record deal with Avex this was basically her only source of income. Also I couldn't find one source on the net that listed all of these together, usually people only know about 2 or 3.

So far the only ones I have been able to see are about half of the Miseinen episodes, Sumomomomo(really interesting movie btw), and Ladies. Also a small clip of Nagisa no Sindbad.

I also have found it interesting that in everything I have seen so far, she has played an abused or neglected child.

ADDENDUM: Here is a more complete list that I just found from various Japanese websites, including airdates. Some of the titles don't make any sense(translated by babelfish), so I've also left the original kanji titles:

Strangely she has no credits for the year 1997. Part of that year was spent in New York though receiving voice and stage lessons.

Whew that's a long list and who knows, this might not even be complete....
