Close-up on Hina Kikuchi and Sara Kurogane’s Pair Gravure! Hina-chan is kind of nerdy, I thought.”

The March 24 issue of “FRIDAY” featuring Hina Kikuchi andSara K urogane on the cover has been a big hit, selling out in bookstores from the pre-order stage. In an interview with them right after the photo shoot, they showed their fresh teenage faces.

Hina: “They are both graduating from high school this March, so we did a gravure photo shoot as a pair, like a graduation trip. The crane game was fun!”

Sara: “FRIDAY was able to feel how much we wanted to meet Hina-chan, and we were able to collaborate with her (laughs). By the way, I didn’t get a single piece of the crane game (laughs).”

This shoot was their first meeting. However, they seemed to have been checking each other out on social networking sites.

Hina said, “I knew about Sara-chan from YouTube and other places. I saw a video of her measuring her breasts and thought she was cute. She is calmer than I thought she would be, and I feel like she is a lot more childlike than I am.

Sara: “Yeah, yeah!　Thank you very much. My impression of Hina-chan was not so different from the image I had before I met her.

Hina “Really?”

Sara “I saw that you often post your “guesses” on Instagram and other places, so I wondered if you were a nerd (laughs). So before I met her, I thought she was probably a little loud, no, I thought she was a chatty and energetic girl!”

Hina “Hey~ (laughs). I’m a little embarrassed that she knows I’m an otaku.”

Kikuchi, who will become a college student in April, and Kurogane, who is increasing her fan base through her dual roles as a gravure model and model. We can’t take our eyes off these two!
