and wonderful quality resolution too...thanks. I have some of Satomi from a gravure magazine, but the quality of the scans are no where as good as yours.....just got the magazine today.

I didn't know she was a gravure model!

they were asking about how she feels wearing the kimonos, what was her favorite colored one...the purple and yellow one...she said it made her feel more mature/more of an adult, asking her about her turing 20 which is a big thing in japan....stuff like that...relationships...

She's the exact same age as my brother. Both are born on Christmas Eve and both are turning 20 this year.

yeah in japan it's a big deal.....20 year olds get dressed up in traditional clothing and go to a shrine.

the coming of age (turning 20 yrs old) holiday is called "seijin no hi"

here's a few photos to illustrate the point:

Thanks for the pics desmond. Another star with short hair.

The coming-of-age thing I guess.

I can relate about tiredness: 5 hours sleep is not enough.

Yea, I only get about six hours, and no matter how hard I try to sleep earlier, I don't fall asleep until it's past 11pm.

Has anyone heard anything about Satomi-chan's new drama? I thought it was gonna start near the end of november.

We're just kidding. It's just that there's a huge lolita complex in Japan. Photobooks of little kids in bikini, manga... I was just saying that when they turn 20, the coming of age, they turn obasan, or old ladies.


My favorite girls are over 20, some near or over 30, so I guess I'm ok.
