<h2><span class="strongInContent"> Maki Okazoe said &#8220;Kitakitanishi&#8221; for &#8220;north-northwest.</span></h2>
<p> On November 24, an event calling for traffic safety was held at &#8220;LaLa Terrace Minami-Senju,&#8221; a commercial facility in Arakawa Ward, Tokyo. Handing a bag containing educational goods to visitors and posing with a salute was freelance announcer Maki Okazoe (33).</p>
<p> On the day of the event, she was serving as police chief for a day at the Minami-Senju Police Station of the Metropolitan Police Department.</p>
<p> Okazoe started her career as a reader model when she was a first-year university student, when she participated as a model in &#8220;Waseda Collection 2011.&#8221; From September &#8217;14, she appeared on &#8220;Mezamashi TV Aqua&#8221; (Fuji Television Network) as an active female university student caster. Since then, she appeared on &#8220;Mezamashi TV&#8221; and &#8220;Mezamashi Saturday&#8221; until March 2008, gaining popularity.</p>

<p><span class="strongInContent"> She was a swimmer during her school days and was nicknamed &#8220;Mirei Kiritani,&#8221; or &#8220;Mirei Kiritani the Black,&#8221; because of her resemblance to Mirei Kiritani (35), who is known for her healthy wheat skin. In addition, she is a &#8220;super natural&#8221; character, and in 2005 on &#8220;Mezamashi TV,&#8221; when asked which direction to eat ehomaki, she said &#8220;north-northwest&#8221; as &#8220;kitakitanishi,&#8221; which is still talked about today.</span></p>
<p> In April 2010, she married racing driver Naoya Gamo (36). She is now the mother of a child and posts family shots on her SNS.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> Okazoe appeared at the event dressed as a police officer, and her wheat-colored skin still looks good. She wore a ten-gallon hat-type helmet and urged people to wear helmets when riding bicycles. He also posted the scene on social networking sites,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> [The hat I am wearing is actually a helmet. I was surprised to see how many different types there are nowadays!　I heard that the rate of wearing helmets when riding bicycles is still low, so I will make sure that my daughter wears a helmet from infancy so that it will be a matter of course for her.</span></p>
<p> I&#8217;ll make sure my daughter is wearing a bicycle from the time she is a toddler so that it will become a normal part of her life. Although she did not make any &#8220;supernatural&#8221; comments on that day, she was still smiling and calling for traffic safety.</p>
