The five leading actresses of the upcoming drama "Namae wo Nakushita Megami" showed off their great relationship at a press conference today.

As described in a past article, "Namae wo Nakushita Megami" revolves around five "mother friends" who support and fight each other in the tough battle of getting their children passed the exams to enter a famous primary school. Its tagline - "Welcome to the hell of mother friends!" - should already give you a nice hint of what to expect from this drama.

Anne is starring as the main lead, her first drama starring role, while the other four mothers are played by Ono Machiko, Kurashina Kana, Ryo, and Kimura Yoshino.

Anne commented about the drama, "A community of mother friends is a small place with nowhere to escape, where every mother loves their children and has her own idea of justice that is destined to collide with that of the others."

Unlike their love-hate relationship in the drama, the five actresses have become the closest friends since their first day at the set. Everyone is already used to calling the others by their nicknames and playing jokes with each other. Apparently, the youngest, Kurashina, gets teased the most.

Kimura revealed, "We hide her lunch box and stuff like that. It's just so much fun to tease her." Of course, that doesn't hurt the relationship at the set. "We all get a long so well," the five of them explained.

You can look forward to the first episode of "Namae wo Nakushita Megami" on Fuji TV on April 12th.
