Top 25 potential Japanese girlfriends
There was a pretty cool update over at Foreign Dispatches today: A Japanese TV show conducted a nation-wide poll asking Japanese men aged 18 to 30 which female celebrity they would want as a girlfriend.

Well, there you have it: 25 girls, 25 pictures, and 74 youtube video links. What do you think? Some of the girls may not make my personal top 25 list, but I can at least agree that most of them are cute and/or beautiful. Ayumi Hamasaki, on the other hand, belongs on a list of the “ugliest plastic surgery nightmare aliens”, and not this list. What are your opinions of the list?

I love you Aya, even if you do eat that natto crap.

No 白石美帆? She plays Jinkama-san in the JDrama Densha Otoko. Another pic : http://cimg.163.com/ent/2005/10/8/20051008095949d41d8.jpg
I like keep good company with you.

Ayumi Hamasaki has not had plastic surgery, kuso-atama! Watch her videos for “Trust” or “Fly High” and apologize!
(but don’t watch “Inspire.” Just… no.)
Thomas, looks like 白石美帆 is all the way down at 81.
As for Ayumi Hamasaki: I don’t know if she really had plastic surgery, but she looks like she did. Maybe it is just her hideous make up, or maybe her eyes are naturally huge? It doesn’t matter, she still looks like a hideous space alien to me.
theres no way in hell her eyes are naturally that massive… She actually had her eyes done twice (the first time wasn’t scarily unnatural enough for her liking) just search google for before and after pics of her… her legs were scary as well… I dunno what miracle fixed those.
I guess Nanako Matsushima would fit best to me.
Is there a list for the last ranking?
Ayumi Hamasaki has never had plastic surgery. Do your research before posting stuff like that. If you’ve seen pics of Ayu’s mother, you know that she also has very big eyes. Also, if you look at Ayu as a child, she has always had those same eyes and nose. Plus she has never been out of the public spotlight once in the past 8 years – the longest she has not been seen in something is, I don’t know? 2 weeks? When exactly is she having all this time to get all these plastic surgeries? In short, next time actually know what you are talking about before talking about it.
You idiot, if you were any kind of fan you would know the facts. Everyone know sthat she has admitted herself to have had plastic surgery to make her eyes bigger !!!!
Well, whoever said Ayu looked like a space alien is pretty dumb
I’ve never heard of any of these women, but based on the visuals provided here, Rosa Katou is who I would most want to make my genetic fertilization available to.
嘘付け!Look: before and after. Does her mother have rubber bands for eyes or something? Do your own research before mouthing off like an ignorant fangirl. 馬鹿馬鹿しい!
omg…does anyone else agree that about 80% of the girls in the top 20 are just really ugly. I mean if they weren’t half-naked they probably never would have gotten the top spots.
I do think that they need better pictures of some of the girls, like Ayumi Hamasaki. That picture is like 10 years old. Ayu does have really large eyes, which I think has caused women in Japan to jealously say she had plastic surgery. Space Alien? Honestly, did you see Rosa Katou…my god, Can you BE anymore tan?
OMG…seriously…some of those girls are just hideous…I think Yuri Ebihari should be first…I also think Kuu should be higher than 20. Did Aki Hoshino only make it to 11 because there’s a video of her eating a sausage?
Where’s Mika Nakashima? She’s stunningly beautiful!
well, it was poll-based, so you cant say the girls were picked for looks alone. some of them have very cute voices, or have a personality trait that is popular.
one thing i noticed was that a lot of these women come from food commercials… whats up with that?
Ayu’s taken already haha,
WEll, fyi, Hamasaki Ayumi is too hot for you. If she were to have plastic surgery, it would have to happen before she was 18. Not likely. It would also have media swarming her if she did during her career.
Plus, what hideous make up are you talking about? Look at her in the PVs for “fairyland”, “is this LOVE?”, “BLUE BIRD”, or “M”. Then tell me if her make-up is hideous.
I think you’re retarded for calling Ayu an ailen, as she is hotter than you. Get a life and stop bashing artists you’ve probably never even listened to.
I used to think ayu had plastic surgeries, but then I saw a video of her without makeup and she looked exactly like when she first came out where she’s wearing a red swimsuit. Make up changes a person’s appearance a huge deal. I think namie should’ve ranked in the 20’s, she’s beautiful!
Dear Ayu Fan club:
Thanks for taking the time to view this list through a link in your forums. I didn’t invent the space alien label for Ayu, in fact, I’ve seen it written on many other sites, including Foreign Dispatches. It is a pretty commonly held view among non-Japanese who see her picture. If you have a problem with her being called a space alien, please suck my dick. Thanks!
P.S.
Her music also sucks.
Ayu ain’t alien… In fact, that pic of her, yes it looks weird but there are billions of other photos of her looking way hotter/more beautiful/cuter than this one.. And in reality, she is very very hot/beautiful/cute… She should be in the top 10…
poor ayu..^_^
Some of the girls are stunningly beautiful. Some are not.
Manami Konishi, will you marry me? *she says yes*
Everyone else, well, nobody really cares what you think.
Have a nice day. ^.^
No Yu Yamada? She’s on all the make-up ads, and my personal fave. I could have thought of a few better faces than those listed. But it that’s what Japanese guys go for, then okay. My tastes are a bit different.
Reika Hashimoto should be, but I understand she’s not quite famous in Japan.
i don’t think the list is very realistic, i mean c’mon, not Reon Kadena, Chisato Morishita, Sora Aoi, Fumine Hara in the Top 25, no mention to Kuriyama-Kun….
unbelievable!!!
I don’t think Koda Kumi is pretty. Where is Matsuura Aya?. She has a lot of natural beauty.Ai Ootsuka is cute.This is with current popularity though. There are girls out there that would get in easy, but are not the most popular at the moment such as Fujimoto Miki. Aya Ueto is cute but not really my type. Wouldn’t say no of course. Good looking girls but maybe not that accurate, as there are aways flaws with surveys.
superb !
LOOKING FOR A GIRLFRIEND IN JAPAN MAC. AF MALE LOOKING FOR A FRIEND KOBE ASHIYA OR SASEBO FOR MARRIAGE pretty and sexy but most important nice lady
all these girls are so prety . . . i want a japanese girlfriend !!!! by the way im from venezuela !!!!
i really prefer kato rosa. she s the cutist gal i v seen.
How dare you say those horriable things about ayumi hamasaki i am a huge fan of hers i think she is the hottest girl on earth she is so sexxy,sweet and cute your just gealous of her because she is so succesful and talented and your not, you just put a bad picture of her up, there are tons of pictures of her out there showing just how georgus and cute she is stop hateing on ayu just because your gealous of her what has she ever done to you?
ok honestly all of these girls are rightfully within the top 25 because they are all young and cute. i would be a lucky man to have any one of them as my girlfriend. a woman is also not a tool used to make your mates jealous!! each one of these girls is a unique individual with weaknesses and strengths, if i had to pick the woman that stood out the most to me it would be AYUMI HAMASAKI because she is proof dreams can come true.
AI OTSUKA also appealed to me more because she has overcome a lot recently and is a strong willed person. charecter shows most in a woman. but personally as i said all are great and should not be seen as ugly or tools.
*AND I DO HOPE ONE OF THEM IS READING THIS YOU ALL SHOULD BE ASHAMED ABOUT OGERLING OVER THESE WOMEN LIKE THEY BELONG TO A PORNO*
oh if i offended any of you i do apologise, just sometimes i find men no longer respect women and this is sad.
women are a tHing of beauty and the list should really extend to members of the public not just celeberaties.
* i know i spelt it wrong haha my english is not the best when typed*
sorry about all the entries this is the last one.
kumi kouda if you are reading this please message me (#^_^#)
hey, Ayumi hasn’t had plastic surgery!!!!!
how come erika sawajiri is not even in the top ten list?she is like the hottest japanese chick out there….

Yes. As I was scrolling down through the images, I thought, “Despite all the cosmetic surgery, most of these girls are still plain.”
Sounds like something a jealous Korean would say.
hey JAMES, non-japs who actually insult ayu are jus NOOBS. merely jealous over someone more who is more stunning. SUCK YR DICK? i guess only gays wanna do it. BASTARD!
Masami Nagasawa is my kind of gal.
I personally think Ayumi Hamasaki is one of the hottest Japanese celebrities ever old or new
p.s. Sowelu is also nice
What are the age ranges for the top 25? They all seem quite young, considering they polled 18 to 30 year old men.
I like tall japanese girl like Misaki ito .Im also like Yuko Ogura . Yuko Ogura is my dream girlfriend .
Yua aida also very beautiful and Honoka very cute .I Like THem .Im Fan Japanese Girlfriend.
I should get beautiful Japanese Supermodel on future.
i can’t believe there’s no Aya Matsuura… She’s the best!!!!
This is sucks!!
I really like Kato Rosa, she is my dream princess girlfriend.
One vote for Namie Amuro
I vote for Manami, she is cool
James, congrats for drawing out so many people with important things to say. If you hadn’t (quite correctly) said that Hamasaki Ayumi looked inhuman, dozens of hikikomori would have had an empty day.
Nanako Matsushima. 33 years old, and still more beautiful than the younger ones here.
Yes, I saw Ayu in a movie (She should have stuck to acting, really, it is her strength, she can’t sing) and she looked basically the same. She does have a . . . unique appearance, however I don’t think she’s had plastic surgery. Now, Matsushima san, I think appears to have had a bit of work done.
Do Hikikomori even like Ayu? I would think they’d respond more to one of the gravure models.
So this list was only the top 12 from the survey and you added some of your own chosing? I’m confused.
Which one is zainichi?
Why didn’t i just saty in japan… WHY ME? WHY ME!???
21 and especially 25. I love #25.
But Asuka Hinoi is still my top #1 spot.
The Misako Yasuda (nr.17) Youtube movie ‘removing her panties’ is missing…
My Yukie is #2? Wow.. I’m not surprised though she’s amazing lol
i think masami nagasawa is the cutest one, from the list.
she has a natural beauty that i’ve never seen.
by the way, Maki Horikita, the 22nd top list, is just like Konan,one of the character in Naruto, is’nt it? haha
