DTI Press Conference

September 30, 2005

The (almost six minute) video of the press conference for the DTI image character announcement is now online. The DTI campaign slogan is "Daijoubu," which means "everything'll be fine," or "it's all good," to use a contemporary phrase. If I heard correctly, beginning October 1st on the DTI website, there will be 100(!) daily web shorts of Konitan in situations where she uses the phrase "Daijoubu."

DTI CM and Web Cinema

September 27, 2005

DTI (Dream Train Internet) has chosen Manami as their "image character" as they set to release their new combined service on October 1st. DTI has planned commercials and daily "web cinemas" featuring Konishi. Konishi was chosen because DTI's emphasis on quality user support fit well with her clean image and her sincere attitude toward her own acting work.

Here are links to the press releases, with photos of the press conference, as well Konitan in her image character outfit: DTI Press Release, Broadband Watch, RBB (a), RBB (b), ITmedia

Phone Pics

I found a bunch of 240x320 photos of Manami which I would assume can serve as wallpapers for a number of cell phones. You can find a lot more Japanese celebs on the home page.
