Fuji’s Ema Yoshioka, Miss Japan Grand Prix winner, shows her “passion” in her report on the Spring High School Volleyball Tournament.

Shadow volleyball” is a great way to relax.

Fuji Television’s Ema Yoshioka, 23, is dressed in a beige suit with a microphone in one hand and a serious expression on her face as she stares at the court.

The “JVA All-Japan Volleyball High School Championships,” or “Spring High School Volleyball,” began on January 5 at the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium (Shibuya Ward). This year, Yoshioka was chosen as the “Spring High School Passionate Caster,” a position previously held by former “Sexy Zone” members Takeru Sato (31) and Katsutoshi Sato (29), and she was cheerfully reporting from the court.

Yoshioka, who is in her first year with the company, is 173 cm tall. She is from Ashiya City, Hyogo Prefecture, and has 18 years of hard tennis experience. In junior high school, she was a member of the track and field club and holds the record for running the 100m in 13 seconds. While a student at Kwansei Gakuin University, she won the Grand Prix in the “55th Miss Japan Contest 2023” and joined “St. Force Kansai. She worked as a freelance announcer. She is a very elite announcer with a combination of talent and beauty, for which Fuji Television has high expectations” (TV magazine writer).

On January 6, Yoshioka updated her SNS.

On January 6, Yoshioka updated her SNS, “I will bring you a lot of information as a passionate caster of Spring High School!　Let’s cheer the athletes’ passionate battles together!

Along with her cheering comments, she posted a photo taken in front of Babo-chan, a character set up in front of the gymnasium.

On January 8, Anna Yoshioka was doing well to live up to her reputation. She kept her eyes on the court from the press box to cover the players’ movements, and she wore a steely expression on her face as she watched the third-round match between Miyakonojo Technical High School (Miyazaki) and Seisei High School (Shizuoka) from courtside, as if her entire attention was focused on the match. He had the air of a switched-on athlete.

In between matches, he played “shadow volleyball” with the staff without a ball, smiling broadly. It seemed that they were able to relax and unwind. Just before the quarterfinals, I was in charge of the pre-game report. The way he looked at the players with a microphone in his hand was once again crisp and cool.

Currently, he is a regular contributor to “Live News It! and “Live News α (α Suport!)”. Yoshioka is currently in charge of “Live News It! In an interview when she won the grand prix at the Miss Japan pageant in 2011, she said that her target was former NTV announcer Takahiko Fujii, 54, who is now a freelance announcer.

Each word is warm and piercing. I think he has worked hard to choose such words, and I admire that about him.

The day may not be far off when she will be appointed as the main anchor of a news or sports program.
