Or Asaji Saki as you may, ^_^!


(see she is waving at yous)


Another Takaraseinne that is growing to me. She might not have one of the best voices but I'll assure you that her acting and dancing is really growing to me.

Let me start with clips shall we:

As Andre in Rose Of Versailles Star Troupe 1989 singing "Shirobara no Hito"(with Maya Miki as Girodelle):

Andre and Oscar(Daiki Yuu), singing the romantic "Ai Areba Koso"(which leads to...ohh I don't want to say....you've all seen Berubara haven't you my F-list?):

Andre's Death(aww no...Mariko...not now...):

Oh Here is another great Mariko role as Kronprinz Rudolf(too lazy to make better quality clips and put them via sendspace but some nice person has put them up from the NHK Broadcast).Shiraki Ayaka plays Mary Vetsera:

Aww a nice way to end such a tragic story, the lovers in Heaven:

Oh and to end it with a very cool rendition of "Yami ga Hirogaru" with her Der Tod(though this particular Elisabeth raises eyebrows for some people but I'm one of the minority that likes it). Franz Josef is played by Minoru Kou while Rudolf is played by Emao Yuu:

Pity I can't find her clips of her from the 10th Anniversary Elisabeth Concert as someone told me her voice is better there but nonetheless, I love her, I simply do.

Oh have some Dal Lake, this is one of those love scenes alongside her leading Musume at the time Hoshina Yuri:

And now for silly TMP Specials.

Here is one of her as a Boxer(I love how Juna Risa shows that A Map Without Borders program):

and another one of her as Rhett Butler:

I wish I can get more Mariko shows like that Berubara 1989, Dal Lake, Map Without Borders Story Of A Sword/Jubilation! or Emperor/Hemingway Revue, but its like a potato chip, I can't choose just one, ^_^!
