On Thursday, actress Kuninaka Ryoko attended a PR event for a new cosmetic brand by Yamada Bee Farm Co. in Tokyo.

At the event she suggests to check out the Valentine's Chocolate made by Tsujiguchi Hironobu's pastry shop. "It's a special made honey and rose chocolate and it's extremely pretty, almost too good to be eaten."

Further she talked about Valentine's Day in general. "I really like the way of giving chocolate to your special someone." This year she also would like to make the chocolate herself. When asked whether there's actually someone she would give it to, she ambiguosly answered, "Mh, well~" and dodged the question with, "There are many who I could give it to!".

In June she's becoming 30, but she doesn't yet think about marriage. "No, I don't want to rush it, but people keep on bugging me about it." Her CM for the new cosmetics will start in the Kantou region on the 16th.

Mizusawa says, "I thought I'd give it to someone this year, but I think I will pass this time." Both are said to have no boyfriend at the moment.

The two girls got asked things like, "Is there a person who you can talk to about love? Are you such a person?". Nagasawa answered with a bitter smile, "I can consult someone, but I myself am not the right person for that. I guess... you can't really rely on me...". - "I think Ma-chan is reliable," Eikura immediately backed her up. The two girls started to become friends after appearing together in Lotte's Ghana Chocolate CM.

A total of 50 female listeners have been invited to that public recording event. Nagasawa and Eikura talked about love with their listeners and made their own chocolate together.

Nagasawa also gave an advice to all the girls who plan to confess their love on Valentine's Day, "Your feelings are what count. Please put in all your feelings when you confess." Eikura adds that, "Even if you usually aren't brave, try to use all your courage on Valentine's Day."

The event is going to get broadcasted on the 15th.
