Today it was announced that six-year-old child actress Ashida Mana, who can currently be seen starring in the drama "Marumo no Okite", will become the youngest girl ever to host a radio show.

Ashida's radio show is called "Children's Day Special - Ashida Mana's Favorite Songs" and will air on Nippon BS, also known as JOLF, at 11am on May 5th. Her charming voice and cute talking in between the songs is bound to make it a really enjoyable show for every listener.

Meanwhile her debut song, "Maru-Maru-Mori-Mori!" - a duet with fellow child actor Suzuki Fuku (6) for the above-mentioned drama, has rapidly been climbing up the mobile download charts since its release on April 24th. Last week the mobile musical portal Recochoku announced that the soothing song managed to take over the first place in their weekly "TV/CM/Movie - Song" ranking.

What is next to come in Ashida's young career?
