She looks something, but not particularly Japanese. The last winner was the same, as was the one before that…. It seems that in order to be win a beauty contest (aside from “Miss Todai” or something) in Japan, a girl has to look un-Japanese.

I probably see 5-6 women on my way to the train station every morning that are more attractive than she is.

Yeah, ‘good looking’ must not be a criteria in this contest.

I was going to say the pics at Mainichi look like a bunch of well-worn dancing girls from an inaka Filipina pub. Not a pretty sight.

Wow , what a bunch of downers!!
I would have to say that unless you were there you shouldn’t bother commenting, she is a lovely girl with a lot of presence and beauty.
WHY are you talking about the “props”??
As for the comment that a French woman has been running the competition, is that the “French” woman that has catapulted Japan to the forefront of Miss Universe in a very short space of time?
My impression of these very talented and accomplished bilingual, lets not forget still very young women, is that they have an inner strength, I suspect that most of these comments are coming from males whose idea of a Japanese beauty is a little archaic and involves a lot more giggling………

“involves a lot more giggling”
No, a lot more titty…..
And I’m sure she has a wonderful personality…..

We’re talking about Japanese women right?

I didn’t say big titties, I said a lot of them. In numbers. Mind you, some are quite nicely cleavage-enhancing, and without the corresponding muffin-top you get in Da West.

I think it’s the hairstyle and makeup that made some of you think she doesn’t look Japanese. If you give her a “cancam” style makeover (i.e. drop the tan, dye hair in blond, the cancam style makeup..etc etc), she would look exactly like 20 other cute Japanese girls you see on the street.

well, the not so pale, on the brownish dark side is what we call exotic to the westerners here in manila, so that could explain as to why such kind of beauty is considered to be asian. i mean even ken watanabe is dark, soooo??

Oh jesus
Everytime there’s some post about one of these contests the “never had sex” crowd comes out blabbing about a)I’ve seen 200 girls at my train stop better looking! or b) Is she (some other Asian nationality) hooker or what? If you can only judge what “looks japanese” is based on your AV collection I guess you might have that opinion . . .
Sorry your favorite AV star is not . . . oh wait . . . lol
