The rainy season had just been announced in early June. In a park in Tokyo, a location shooting of &#8220;Tutor Traco&#8221; (NTV) was taking place in the morning. The girl acting in tears and leaning in close with a cool expression on her face is Ai Hashimoto (26), who plays the lead in this drama.

However, just before the cameras rolled, she was meditating, perhaps to unify her mind.</figcaption></figure>
Under a slightly chilly sky, Hashimoto sits alone on a bench in a plaza and seems to be talking to a girl. He smiled at her for a moment, stood up slowly, and began to talk about something. The girl stopped crying and listened to his words.
Seven years ago, at the age of 19, Hashimoto had stated on a TV program that she wanted to get married by age 30 because she wanted to have at least three children. The scene showed a gentle expression on her face, reminiscent of her love for children.

 She is not extremely beautiful, and she is not mysterious, but she has a mysterious atmosphere and charm that is unique to her. If you put her in a movie, there must be an expectation that she will perform differently from other actresses. Her agency is also a powerful place, but it is completely her ability that has brought her this far. I am sure that she will continue to receive offers for dramas and movies.&#8221; (Entertainment reporter Takayuki Jyoshita)
In the new drama, Hashimoto plays a legendary tutor with a 100% pass rate. This tutor actually teaches her not only about studying but also about the realities of the world and how to spend money. We can expect to see a different side of Hashimoto, not just the &#8220;motherly&#8221; side that she plays as a child actor.
