I think their photos are too enough. But more is the most welcome.:cool:

This pair is one of my favourites! I was hoping no one else would notice them..but ai...:mad: can't keep them to myself for any longer :p

Eriko Hirose is also very kawaii (cute) :p Kanako Yonekura must be the Japanese domestic version of Anna Kournakova. :rolleyes:

In fact, I like the whole Japanese team. Sho Sasaki impressed me with his run in the All England this year. Very youthful team. Hopefully they can make some impact in Sudirman cup. If only Norika Fujiwara would play badminton..:D :D:D

Very nice. Thank you.

Are there anymore where they came from..I mean the photos.

No cappy, Kimura-san (木 村 佳 乃) is a dorama actress who looks a lot like another famous dorama counterpart, Nanako Matsushima (松嶋菜々子).
