JulieAnne Jan 08 2015 4:44 am I think we really love Maotsujun (InoueMao x MatsumotoJun) couple. They left us a grat memory. They look great together and I swear I'll be the happiest when they get married. I am really praying for them to end up being together. No hate for those who don't ship them but MAO AND JUN IS THE BEST COUPLE EVER. I am a fan since 2005 and will be here for both of them 'till forever. Hahaha please get married and have children.

Shanae Jun 07 2014 6:47 am The tabloids are saying that Jun Matsumoto and Mao Inoue have been dating for 9 years and is expected to get married before this year is over. Jun Matsumoto and Mao Inoue were spotted at a restaurant together, and they left after one another, I saw the picture and Mao was wearing a mask tin disguise and Jun Matsumoto was wearing a hat. think this information is too good to be true, but i will not believe anything until I hear confirmation from both MatsuJun and Mao Inoue. I really hope it is true that Mao and Jun will be together because make a cute couple.

jay Feb 21 2013 12:30 pm I love Inoue Mao! She's such a talented actress!

karen Jan 20 2013 9:30 pm La primera vez que vi a Inoue Mao fue en Hana Yori Dango en la cual que re encantada con su papel la adora yo soy de argentina y la verdad es que no conozco que digamos muchos actores japoneses solo los de el dorama pero ella como protagonista me encanto me enamore (no tan literal jaja) me gusto mucho como actuó ahora estoy viendo todas las películas en la cual participo Por lo que vi y estoy viendo es una excelente actriz en verdad se convierto en mi ACTRIZ FAVORITA ♥ Inoue Mao es una hermosisima chica y muy talentosa y no se que mas poner ya que no se mucho de la solo que que escriben ,pero me gusta y por lo que leí estoy muy segura que tan bien es muy educada ,buena y en lo que a mi me concierne lo creo porque no parece lo contrario.

bueno para mi nueva mejor y favorita actriz como muchos los que han comentado le deseo muchos mas proyectos en todo  te adoro ♥♥♥♥♥  
                           
                                          ♥♥♥♥ sos una grosa fantástica ♥♥♥♥

Jammie Dec 28 2012 5:20 am Haha. @Charchaud000, she looks like Ling Xiaoyu from Tekken 6 :-)

Jen Nov 28 2012 11:52 am I first saw Mao through HYD and her performance there was cute and charming. Then I saw her in I Give My First Love to You and I thought that she did well in her role. Her other dramas like Tokkan were fun to watch. Her latest movie Rebirth showed a complete different side and really demonstrated her acting abilities. I hope she gets more work in the future because she is really becoming a wonderful actress. She has grown so much from her HYD days! She is beautiful and very talented!!!!

Charchaud000 Nov 26 2012 9:28 am When i first saw her photo, i said her face was familiar. Haha and then i recognize in a minute that she looks like a final fantasy character.. You know with those round eyes, perfect nose, thin lips and narrow face shape!! :-)

Tinker bell Nov 01 2012 8:35 am Mao-chan is such a cutieeee!!! >_<

Pauline Oct 31 2012 2:21 am Konichiwa!!! My name is Pauline .And Im from the Phillipines. I really like Your MOVIe HANA YORI DANGO! as Tsukushi Makino. This is the first time I ever feel like nothing is impossoble when it comes to your hardwork, and thats after I watch you!. And I really Like your Love scenes with domyouji. THANK YOU FOR THE LAUGHTERS !! BESt WISHES and GAMBATTE!! :)

muhd-akbar Oct 24 2012 1:55 pm She's cute&sweet. "I Give My First Love To You" Mayu ^^

shengsheng Oct 12 2012 8:58 pm She's the most promising actress. She has awesome performance

Jeel Oct 03 2012 11:27 am I admire her so much! She's beautiful inside and out! Hope she'll do another project with matsujun. Anything will do! :p

queen-of-all Sep 17 2012 8:27 am seriously, she is definitely the most beautiful actress i've ever seen in japan!

somebody Sep 09 2012 11:50 pm very lovely

minnie Aug 30 2012 9:03 pm all her projects is worth watching

kittykie Aug 12 2012 12:09 pm of all the japanese actress i've known, inoue mao seems to be the boyish of them all, in the way she act and in real life also, but definitely she's the cutest especially in her batch.... i like her more than maki horikita and yui aragaki who both take plastic surgery in order to obtain perfection in their faces.

Ade Jul 16 2012 8:53 pm she also got the award as best actress in hana yori dango 1 and 2 :)

barbara Jul 03 2012 4:12 pm Inoue Mao is a great actress!! I LOVE YOU inoue ! Inoue mao, sekai de saikō no joyūda! Watashi wa anata o aishiteimasu.

Peaches Jun 26 2012 5:40 pm This lady deserves all the fame that she has. I love the fact that she's pure and educated. I feel that she always manages to pull people's heartstrings. She is very beautiful and very talented. I heard that she's picky when it comes to choosing roles hence the reason why she doesn't appear in many dramas like other actresses, but I think that's good. I just wish I could see more of her acting. I'm tired of watching dramas with a great cast and a crappy female protagonist. Inoue we need more of you so you can show other actresses what real acting's all about but either way good luck in your career! :)

cutie Jun 24 2012 3:08 pm Omg, I LOVE Inoue Mao <3 Such a great actress and so beautiful!

jasjas May 04 2012 1:51 am Kawai!!! :)) Tsukushi Makino-san! So cute!! :)) I really love and like you! My favorite japanese actress! <3 I hope you'll more projects to showcase your cute smile, brave attitude and good acting skills! :) Ganbatte Kudasai! ^_^

chaepenn Apr 03 2012 8:48 am i like her in hanayori dango and first kiss. i love the chemistry of them in this drama. she has the cutest smile i've seen in japanese actress.

Victor Chen Mar 10 2012 2:53 pm I just completed watching "I give my first love to you" and I must say ... it was a mesmerizing performance... wow... Keep up the good work... and yeh... you are really beautiful...

bliss Feb 06 2012 2:09 am Inoue, you are so great!!! I first saw you in Hana Yori Dango. You became more beautiful in I Give My First Love to You with your curly hairstyle. Keep Up pretty lady! Your acting is awesome as well. You're so blessed with your looks & your talents.

rumiko Nov 05 2011 4:17 am INOUE MAO!!! DAISUKI!!! YOU'RE MY ULTIMATE IDOL THE FIRST TIME I SAW YOU IN HANADAN! KYAAA!!

mayeth g. Oct 24 2011 5:26 am Any chance of pairing with Jun Matsumoto again? Or even with Shota Matsuda?

izumichou Sep 01 2011 8:50 am Well I'm not a girl and I totally am in love with her, for all those same reasons.

ohisanyu Aug 18 2011 4:09 am Well if I weren't a girl, I would totally fall in love with this kind of girl. She is talented, pretty, down to earth, educated, and most importantly well-grounded from the interviews I've seen with her. She seems unlike many other actresses today. Even her beauty seems that of a traditional one, instead of trying hard to to Westernize her looks. <3333 Mao-Chan<333 I will keep looking forward to you future endeavors! ^_^

Shinkei-chan Jul 18 2010 7:51 am Inoue Mao's portrayal as Mayu Taneda in "I Give My First Love to You (Boku no Hatsukoi wo Kimi ni Sasagu)" is really moving and amazing. She captured my heart and since "I Give My First Love to You" is a drama movie, she did a splendid job in getting her audience feel the emotions that the character feels. I love Mao! :)

nica Jul 10 2010 4:00 am LOVE HER!!! She's so pretty and such a good actress. Amazing portrayal of Makino. The actresses that portrayed the Makino character in the Taiwanese and Korean version doesn't even come close to Inoue in terms of acting and natural cuteness and toughness. Wish you more projects to come!

Docalion Dec 10 2009 10:34 pm WOOOOHOOO!! Lova love Makino Forever!!1 You're always the best!

Azi565 Sep 10 2009 11:53 pm Inoue is so cute!!!!!!
