How do you like the cutest Japanese model?-by Japanese Girls Interest Navi

I mentioned about Moe Oshikiri, one of the famous model in Japan. Then I have to talk about Yuti Ebihara and Yu Yamada.
Like I said, like in tabloids, TV shows Moe Oshikiri, Yuri Ebihara and Yu Yamada is always brought up in comparison. If one of them had a scandal, then other two will be mentioned also, because they were the top model of the Japanese fashion magazine; Can Can and they are TV talents.

Today's topic is Yuri Ebihara.
It is very timely to talk about Yuri Ebihara because there was a scandal on love affair. Recently, she was taken picture of dating Ilmari; a member of Japanese HipHop group Ripslyme.



Yuri Ebihara is called Ebi-chan.
I think Ebi-chan is the cutest model. She has the perfect face!
She is a twin, but the sister is not a model so I never saw her sister on media. But I bet she is cute! I think they are the prettiest twins in Japan.

I like Ebi-chan's face but I don't like her voice. Moe-chan's voice is nice.
Watch Ebi-chan speak.
Watch Moe-chan speak.


How old do you think she is?

She is 29. She look young. I didn't know that she was that old.

About her boyfriend.
Ilmari, he is half Finnish and a member of a Ripslym, a Japanese Hip Hop group.
I like Rip Slyme. They are good.
I like Japanese Hip Hop because they aren't about mother fucker, bitch, money, shit and all thouse stuff.
Japanese Hip Hop is more more positive like lyric.

Do you know Japanese Supermodel Moe Oshikiri?-by Japanese Girls Interest Navi



Moe Oshikiri is a Japanese TV talent. Moe-chan first appeared in media as a fashion magazine model. She was a one of the Japanese supermodel who all the girls admired. The magazine she made fame is called Can Can. Many Japanese girls love this magazines.

Moe-chan has been producing her own Yukata since 2008 or 07.
Today's pictures are Moe-chan producing Yukata 2009. I think Moe-chan'sYukata are the prettiest above all. When I look at the picture, I think they are very cute and I feel I want to buy but it's pretty expensive. Moe-chan's Yukata(only Yukata, not as set) cost USD 300, and if I buy other things that go with, it will probably cost USD 500. What keeps me from buying is that Moe-chan producing yukata has trend every year. Japanese girls only wear Yukata twice or third times in summer, when we go to matsuri. If I'm paying USD 500 for three times, one season Yukata, then I would buy Yukata that is very basic traditional designed yukata with traditional dieing and sewing. This is what holds me back from buying Moe-chan's Yukata. Well simply because I don't have that much money to spend on Yukata.






At first, I didn't like Moe-chan when she was a model. I simply didn't think here face pretty. Here eyes are apart. After she became a TV talent, I stated to like her. Her voice and the way she talks is nice and can tell that she is a nice kind women. Now she is dating with a Japanese Pro Baseball player, a pitcher Nomaguch.

Speaking of Moe-chan there is a two other super modelss to come up with, and that is You Yamada and Yuri Ebihara. Three of them are from the same fashion magazine and now they are a TV talent. So this is why they always brought up as a comparison, maybe I'll talk about them next time.

Review of period 3 and 4

It never took a Yukata lesson, nor tough by my mom how to wear it. I learnd it by my self. Wearing Yukata is not much difficult, but it is probably hard to wear with out practice.
Kimono would be difficult to wear by your self unless you've took a lesson because Kimono's cloth is much thicker. So the layers becomes thicker and it is hard to tie it tightly. It is better to ask someone to healp.


Here is a good Video uploaded on You Tube.
It is in Japanese but it should be alright if you read the Steps on Period 3

Still it is too hard, here is a Obi for you!



The Ribbon is already tied for you.
All you have to do is rap the Obi belt and stick the wire of the ribbon in it.
Very easy. No worries of loosing.
I used to wear this but I quited because there where only crappy colors when I was a kid.
Nowaday, they have lot of cute ones.

Loosing is one of the big conscious of wearing Yukata. If you do it by your self, it usually becomes louse, so you need to know how to fix.

Japanese girls are very excited going to Masturi in Yukata!
And so am I!
It will be much fun if I had a boyfriend to go with.
I was dumped two weeks ago (;_;)

In the old days, technique to wear kimono was past down from mother to daughter but this custom is vanishing today.
For those girls and adult woman who don't know how to wear Kimono/Yukata, there is a school that teaches it.
However, in Japan today, people don't wear Kimono/Yukata other than special uses like marriage, graduation and aging ceremony.


Things you need to get

1. Obi-Ita (Plate for obi)

You need this to make Obi (ribbon) look good.

How do you like this cute Japanese Guy?-by Japanese Girls Interest Navi



How do you like this Japanese Guy in the picture?

You might say "Hu? which guy?"

The girl in the picture is Ayana Tsubaki.
But she was a guy. She had Gender Identity Disorder and had a cut off surgery. So now she is female.
She is a Japanese supermodel who is very popular among Japanese teens and schoolgirls.
She is a model for Japanese teen magazine Koakuma Ageha, a magazine for gal. Not only a model, she work as a TV talent as well.

Not only young Japanese girls, she is supported from a wide range of people.
Her book "I went to Boy's high school "
I think she is really cute. I wouldn't notice that she is a homosexual if she didn't say it.

Today's Yukata has been produced by her.
Her Yukata is very cute and very modern. Look at the "Obi"
"Obi" is a a cloth around the weist. It a long peace of cloth and you roll it around your weist and make a ribbon at the back.
Tradidiionary, Obi doesn't have patterns. So I fealt this is very new.

Which Type of Japanese girls do you like?-by Japanese Girls Interest Navi




Which Type of Japanese girls do you like?

Yukata again!

Today's Yukayta is a modern Yukata.

Can you tell the difference from the post of yesterday?

Yesterdays Yukawa was a remake of traditional yukata. They used traditional dieing and sweing and made patterns and designs modern.
But todays are much more modern.
Modern Yukata is more flowerly and rich in colors and complex pattern because they are all prints.
Also little acessories are purly and racey.

Avobe anything, I think you can tell that from the models.
The models in the first Yukata post, they are more adult and belongs to a category of what we think Japanese Beauties.
Japanese supermodel like Ai Tominaga and Miss Univers 2007 Riyo Mori is an Asian beautie but not Japanese Beuties.
This is how we think "Japanese Beauties".

Today's Yukata models are mor young and puts alot of make ups. They are the girls of the category Gal.







I prefer girls of the fist post, the Japanese beauties.
