The current issue of Josei Seven is reporting that Mari Yaguchi may be in a relationship with actor Takuji Kawakubo, who is best known for starring in "Ultraman Nexus" a few years ago.

According to the magazine, Kawakubo was seen this month leaving from Yaguchi's home early in the morning. The magazine also snapped pictures of the two together on a separate occasion. They reportedly met at a party last summer. However, both of their agencies have stated that the pair are just friends.

The same issue of Josei Seven also reports that actress Maki Tamaru has broken up with Samantha Thavasa president Kazumasa Terada.
