Don't know if that's a weird combination or not, but one thing is for sure, that pic of her is ugly.

A simple answer, yet deep in meaning..

How can we not love this girl?

I really agree with you on the issue of loneliness. She does often say things that make her seem very wistful - that little tinge of melancholy.

Posted your translation over at Juri's Room in LJ...
Thank you so much :woot:

Juri's answers were considerably more curt than every other winner for the Vogue award, which is why I found her interview amusing. She definitely seems the loner type, but it's always the truly brilliant types who come off that way.

Yeah, it's really odd how terrible Anna looks in that photo. I think it's the only one of her where I've thought she looked horrible (as opposed to just not my bag).

Anyway, this is what she looks like when her hair isn't fried and she has a normal makeup job. In 2004, before she started plucking her eyebrows super thin and bleaching her hair to death:

For the longest time, Juri reminded me of Anna and I couldn't figure out why. They have a pretty similar bone/face structure, and the voice Juri used for Ruka was a bit husky like Anna's.

^wow, she looks completely different. If this pic was back in 2004, what the heck happened to this girl.

Yeah, I don't think any combination is weird, but that pic of Tsuchiya is totally unflattering... meoinkie2 should've cropped the pic. :beaten:

I don't think any of those women lost: They all WON awards. :headscratch:

I think you guys are reading too much into it... You're mistaking her introspection for something else.

That's such a great shot - I can't believe it wasn't staged. She's purty.
