<h3><b>The aesthetic of deliberate concealment: the eroticism of sheerness?</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">── First of all, how do you feel after finishing this FRIDAY photoshoot?</span></p>
<p><b>&#8220;This was my first gravure shoot for FRIDAY, and since it was also my first time meeting the staff and photographer, I was a bit nervous. But everyone was so friendly from the start, which made the shoot really enjoyable. The marble floor was cold, though (laughs). Since it’s a winter gravure shoot, there were some tough moments like that, but everyone kept complimenting me, so I was able to enjoy the process.&#8221;</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">── Are there any specific points in the outfits that you’d like people to focus on?</span></p>
<p><b>&#8220;We changed hairstyles and overall vibes depending on the outfit, so I’d love for people to enjoy the different sides of me. If I had to highlight one, I’d say the blue lace outfit felt particularly new for me. Satin fabric with lace—it’s packed with elements that girls love, and it also embodies the aesthetic of deliberate concealment. It’s not about fully revealing but rather about a subtle sheer eroticism (laughs). I feel like it brought me one step closer to a more mature look, so I hope people take notice of that!&#8221;</b></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">── Tell us about your work. What kind of activities are you currently involved in?</span></p>
<p><b>&#8220;As a freelance announcer, I host the morning news program Tokyo Information (TOKYO MX) and the sports radio program N-FIELD (FM NACK5). On N-FIELD, I get to talk for three hours every Saturday from 6 PM to 9 PM. My goal is to share the excitement of sports with a wide audience and connect with listeners in a fun way through sports. I believe the true essence of sports lies in how it allows people to share emotions—joy, anger, sadness, and excitement—together. I also try to speak as naturally as possible and just be myself. If you love sports, I’d love for you to tune in!&#8221;</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">── Are there any athletes or teams you&#8217;re currently keeping an eye on?</span></p>
<p><b>&#8220;I&#8217;m especially watching Fagiano Okayama, a soccer club that has just been promoted to J1 for the first time since its founding. Seeing them compete in J1 will be really exciting, so I want to follow their journey closely!&#8221;</b></p>

<h2><b>Mugi-so or Mugi-Mugi</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">── Did you do anything special to prepare for this gravure shoot?</span></p>
<p><b>&#8220;I usually eat a lot, so about two weeks before the shoot, I cut out my beloved alcohol and focused on eating vegetables and chicken breast. I also avoided my favorite—noodles. Right before the shoot, I do a fasting regimen with enzyme drinks and water. I’m the type to make last-minute adjustments (laughs). I stay motivated by looking forward to eating after the shoot!&#8221;</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">── So, you like alcohol?</span></p>
<p><b>&#8220;My favorite is a barley shochu called &#8216;Kanehachi.&#8217; I like drinks with a bit of a strong character. I either have it with soda or mixed with barley tea. I call it &#8216;mugi-so&#8217; (barley shochu soda) or &#8216;mugi-mugi&#8217; (barley shochu with barley tea). People often say I have the drinking habits of an old man (laughs).&#8221;</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">── Lastly, do you have a message for FRIDAY readers?</span></p>
<p><b>&#8220;Nice to meet you (laughs). I think it’s been about three years since I started doing gravure, and now I’ve had the opportunity to be featured in FRIDAY. Thank you so much! I’ll keep working hard so I can continue appearing in front of you all, so I’d be really happy if you support me through social media and other platforms!&#8221;</b></p>
