In 1991, the Japanese drama "Tokyo Love Story" swept across Asia. In the play, the girl who laughs and has pear swirls on her cheeks, sparkling in her crescent eyes, and said that her backpack is "filled with love and hope" has since lived in the hearts of thousands of viewers.
30 years later, when Suzuki Ho nami was mentioned, the first thing that came to most people's eyes was still Akana's smiling face.
In real life, Suzuki's marriage, like the love of Akamei Rika and Nagao, did not achieve a happy ending.
On the evening of July 16, Suzuki Honami's husband Takaaki Ishibashi uploaded a video on his YouTube channel, and the couple jointly issued a statement announcing divorce, ending a 23-year marriage relationship, and saying that "raising children has come to an end" and that the two will re-establish a partnership as the president of the firm and an artist affiliated with the company.
Upon learning of the news of the divorce of "Akana Reika", many netizens in China congratulated Nanami Suzuki on becoming the "most free and happy woman in Tokyo" again.
Become Akame Rika
Before becoming Akane Rika, Nanami Suzuki was a maverick "wild girl".
Born on August 14, 1966, Inomi Suzuki to a traditional family of teachers in Tokyo, her parents were extremely strict with her, hoping that she would grow into a typical "lady". But Suzuki Honami is reluctant to be bound in her bones, clings to everything new, and has been very assertive since childhood.
In elementary school, Nanami Suzuki, who loved baseball, formed a community girls' baseball team, but when she signed up for a community game, she was rejected. So she took the lead in pulling up a white cloth strip at the community congress to protest sexist practices. This earned her the nickname Wild.
Suzuki Spentami spent her junior high school years at Kamakura High School in Kanagawa. The city of Kamakura is not only the filming location of "Slam Dunk Master", but also has its own love attributes - in countless japanese film and television works, "Kamakura is always summer, people are always in love." Suzuki Honami's dedication to love may be partly due to this.
・"Slam Dunk Master" was filmed in Kamakura.
In high school, in order to pay for a trip to Hawaii, she signed up for a model selection contest, which came out on top and knocked on the door to the film and television industry.
In 1991, the TV series "Tokyo Love Story" starring Nanami Suzuki premiered in Japan, with an average rating of 22.9%, and the last episode climbed to 34%, becoming the first TV series in Japan in the 1990s to exceed 30% in the rating of a single episode. In her fifth year as an actress, Nanami Suzuki embarked on the pinnacle of her acting career and has been tied to Rika Akamei ever since.
This is a pure, brave, persistent girl. Seeing the back of the person he likes, "he will chase after him with thorns and thorns, his feet are sprained, he will chase when he jumps, it rains the most, throw down his umbrella and chase, if he does not wait for me, let him regret it for a lifetime." In Japan in the early 1990s, the only woman who dared to say such a bold and straightforward declaration of love was Akamei Rika.
Under the interpretation of Nanami Suzuki, the unique charm of Akamei Rika was infinitely magnified, and some viewers commented, "Such a touching smile, as if all the happy things in the world become petals blooming in an early morning."
Love is supreme
"The moment you like someone will always remain in your heart, it will become your courage, and it will become a ray of light in the darkness." 」 Akamei's "Golden Sentence of Love" was once the "love textbook" for a generation of young Japanese girls.
In Suzuki's heart, Rika is a girl who has no heart, is full of love, and can give everything unconditionally for love. She's very persistent, she's also stubborn, and she has some perfectionism when it comes to love. "In fact, I am also like this, I have a tendency to pursue perfection in love, so I will ask for everything to the people I like." Nanami Suzuki admits that her attitude towards love is consistent with Thatka's.
The high degree of overlap between the personality of the character and the true color of the actor has made Akana Reika, which has been remembered by thousands of viewers, but it has also become the grass snake gray line of Suzuki's emotional path after that.
After the broadcast of "Tokyo Love Story", Suzuki Honami became popular throughout Asia, becoming the queen of Japanese dramas at that time and embarking on the peak of her career. At the same time, she is also caught up in the scandal with her Bole and gold medal TV series producers Mostly Bright. There are even rumors that it is because of her intimate relationship with Mostly Liang that she can get the opportunity to play Akana Rika.
For a time, public opinion was in an uproar. Because Most of Liang already has a family, the scandal between the two has been accused of being "unruly" and has been criticized by many.
The uninhibited Suzuki Ho nami did not shy away from suspicion and once again starred in a number of TV dramas in which Ryo Mostly acted as a producer. One of them, "In the Name of Love", ended with an episode with a rating of 32.6%, setting a new high in ratings. Ratings went viral, most of the bright marriages also lit up red lights, gossip media blamed it on Suzuki Ho Nami's intervention, she had to stand up and clarify: "Most of the bright for me, only to the elders to take care of the relationship of the younger generations." ”
The storm has not subsided, and the media has filmed her traveling with Yosuke Eguchi, the actor of "Mikami" in "Tokyo Love Story".
・Nanami Suzuki and Yosuke Eguchi in Tokyo Love Story.
For the high-value CP of handsome men and beautiful women, the media and the public have sent blessings and called it "meteor love". Soon after, however, the two announced their marriages to others. Yosuke Eguchi married Chisato Moraka, a singer from the same company, and Nanami Suzuki married Kazuhito Kawai, a racing announcer who had known each other for half a year.
Although the public is not optimistic about Suzuki's "next marriage", she said bluntly: "I am serious about love, and it would be great if I could stay with him for the rest of my life." ”
Nanami Suzuki, who said this, is like Li Xiang in "Tokyo Love Story" who said, "I always think of every love as the last.".

Unfortunately, the wish was once again disappointed. Just like the honest Nagao Kenji in the TV series can not choose the avant-garde and open Akamei, the conservative Kazuhito Kawai in reality can not accept the work of Suzuki Ho Nami, coupled with the fact that the two get together less and leave more, the marriage ended after 3 years.
After a year of divorce, Suzuki Hoami fell in love with Takaaki Ishibashi, a member of the Japanese comedy group "Tunnel Duo", and announced their engagement in a high profile. This is another husband with a wife, suzuki Ho nami became the target of public criticism for a while, and was even named "Little Three".
Reality is not an idol drama, and the complicated side of Akamei Rika, who was perfected in the original TV series, has been examined in Suzuki Ho Nami, which is both ironic and real.
In November 1998, Nanami Suzuki held a press conference on the marriage of Takaaki Ishibashi.
"After Cinderella and the Prince Get Married"
Resolutely marrying Takaaki Ishibashi may be Suzuki's last desperate decision.
Although he never thought of giving up his acting career, he starred in large-scale works, which caused dissatisfaction among his mother-in-law. Perhaps because of the breakdown of her first marriage, when her career and family clashed again, Suzuki Chose to Compromise and Back Down. After marriage, she announced that she would stop the film, completely fade out of the entertainment circle, and return to the family. In the following 8 years, she gave birth to three daughters.
Nanami Suzuki's quest for perfection did not prolong the sweetness of the marriage. Over the years, Takaaki Ishibashi has been accused of making harassing sexual moves on the show, and has also been photographed with intimate photos of other women, and negative rumors have continued.
In 2008, the 42-year-old Nanami Suzuki decided to make a comeback and successively participated in dramas such as "Lawyer in Gold" and "Family Game", and also co-starred with his old partner "Nagao Kenji" actor Oda Yuji "SUITS Unlicensed Lawyer". Although she is no longer as brilliant as before, she is very happy, "finally can breathe the air outside."
After Hoami Suzuki's comeback, she co-starred with Yuji Oda in "SUITS Unlicensed Lawyer".
However, Ishibashi Takaaki set limits on his wife's acceptance of the scene, and even asked her to "go home immediately after filming" and "call in the evening".
In February last year, Suzuki Ho nami was interviewed by a magazine and complained about her family life: "Why did I have to be tied up by my family during my time?" Kids have their own space at home, but I don't. ”
Thirty years later, today's Suzuki Honami is no longer the Akana Rika who "cut through thorns and sprained her feet and chased after her sweetheart's back".
In a 2019 talk show, when talking about how to teach her daughter about the concept of love, Nanami Suzuki gave a very different answer from when she was younger: "First of all, cherish yourself." It will not be like Li Xiang, who must identify a person. ”
When love is faced with a chicken feather, she is no longer stubborn and no longer insistent.
In July last year, Suzuki Ho nami set up a personal office and later bought a mansion worth 300 million yen (about 17.6 million yuan) in a high-end area in Tokyo, which was seen as an advance preparation for her return to singlehood. Today's divorce announcement is not surprising.
On July 16, Nanami Suzuki and Takaaki Ishibashi announced their divorce.
Nanami Suzuki, like Rika Akamei, was a perfectionist in love. After experiencing unrepentant love and a broken marriage, she changed the "Akamei Lixiang-style" concept of love, but chose to leave in the same way as Lixiang.
In a 2019 interview, Nanami Suzuki said: "As you get older, you will understand that Cinderella and the prince are not the end of marriage, and their future is still very long. Just like the TV series, "Akamei Lixiang" has to face, in addition to the choice between love and non-love, there are also conflicts and entanglements entangled between family and career, as well as public opinion peeping and moral judgment from the outside world.
In the real life of stripping away art beautification, it is much more difficult to be Akamei Lika than in the TV series. It is precisely because of this that The Akana Rika, who is desperate for love in "Tokyo Love Story", seems so precious and unforgettable.
