About a week before she reported her marriage, Okazoe appeared at an event: the award ceremony for CampusAward 2022, Japan’s largest campus beauty pageant, held last March 29.
More than 4,000 college and vocational students from more than 300 schools across the country entered this beauty pageant. The grand prix winner receives a prize of 2 million yen and a runway appearance in a fashion event. Okazoe Anna was the main MC for this event.
Ms. Okazoe attended the event in a long white dress that boldly showed her shoulders. She was the center of attention among the thousands of winners who lined up to receive the awards.

He commented, “I’m not sure I’ve ever seen anything like this before,” to the delight of the audience.
When she was a newscaster on Mezamashi TV (Fuji Television Network), she was called “Mirei Kiritani, the Black Kiritani” and “an announcer who is too black,” which drew a lot of attention. She has remained popular since then because of her cheerful and natural character and her strong knowledge and interest in sports in general. She will continue to be active in sports programs in the future.
The fact that no one calls her “Kurosugi Ana” anymore is probably the greatest proof of this.
