The winner of this year’s Miss Japan Grand Prix is Miyata Marino, a 17-year-old high school student and the first of someone in her age group to earn the award in the past ten years(the previous one was Komatsuda Ari in 1999).
The beauty queen discussed her career plans to become a business journalist along with an announcement she made to her audience during the awards ceremony: “I love the anime Macross Frontier. I think anime is a part of Japan’s culture.”
Miss Miyata’s inspiration to enter the Grand Prix came from the 1992 winner Eriane Sayaka.
According to her mother, her participation in the contest was to help boost her confidence: “I want to be proud of my title as Miss Japan and try my best.”
When asked about whether or not she had a boyfriend she bashfully replied: “Not currently. If I go to college I’ll think about it.”
It seems as though anime fans are becoming more open nowadays in Japanese society though some of them express their interests more extremely then others.

looks like she's smuggling plums, or hasn't shaved in decades.
IT'S A TRAP
I guess she looks nice, needs more loli though :P
It just wouldn't be Sankaku without someone mentioning traps, shopped or nude filters.
Although I agree that for a Miss Japan, she seems strangely uncharismatic.
One thing that's struck me is that the swimsuits are oddly unflattering...I haven't checked to compare, but aren't they the red version of the same one worn by Aya Hirano in her epic fail bikini photo?
Uncharismatic-looking indeed. The "wtf am I doing here?" face in the last pic doesn't help. =D
I don't know if that's the same bikini as Ms. Hirano, but IMO it looks too loose ... almost flabby-like.
But enough bashing from me. She looks like a nice girl with a pleasant personality, so congrats to her for winning.
BIG BUSH LOL
the fact that I checked for a trap when i first saw the picture makes me rofl
what's with the bulge in her panties?
it's like she even had padding down there...
Now if she would dress up like Ranka Lee and do that "Nyan Nyan" dance maybe it would be cute.
so is she 18 now? can I fap for her without any danger from feminazis? fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap
beauty queen?
lolwat...
and can someone tell me where that beauty is?
cuz i dun see one in any of those pics.
Actually, the first thing that I thought odd was that crown and bow ribbon. It looks so odd. :D
that is one big bulge. danger! danger!
i agree. I hope thats just a sock or two in there o.o
Congrats to Miyata Marino!~
She could have at least did the little "kira~!" thing, way to fuck up easy fanfare.
Deculture! XD
At least take a cute girl for you miss, dumb japaneses.
omg, plain girl is plain.
She's ugly. I can walk any street in Japan and find 10 girls more attractive.
I'd hit her with a 2 by 4.
but the question is,they will like you as an otaku?Certainly not...
But are they open fans of Macross Frontier?
i gotta agree here
First time I noticed one of your articles. Belated welcome to you I guess.
I would like to thank anime, which gave me the idea of becoming a grand prix girl!
Congratulations Miyata Marino-san. A glorious day indeed. May your travels in life be as colorful as this one.
She'll probably get trampled by otaku once she gets into college.
She looks so worried in all those photos ^^;
Cause she's not sure which camera to look at XD
the pics needs photoshopping
At least her personality seems somewhat interesting.
"I love macross because my target audience is otakus and nerds who love macross and who're the ones who'll be buying my calendars and future idol vids. thanks for your patronage!"
Welp, if YOU all are disgusted by them I guess I'll just have to take them for myself,...
is it just me or her bikini seems to be hidding something? o.o is it a trap?
One word: Unshaved
it seems something is poking out XD
I was thinking the same thing...
So... where's the nude-filter?
the criteria for ms.japan must've been pretty low for her to win. I say take off all the contestant's tops and let us judge for ourselves.
Oh I agree on that. =D
moe-shulu kawaii
Wow all those girls in that contest are ugly. Is that a beauty pageant?
That's usually what happens when the pictures aren't photoshopped as much! Welcome to real life.
No, they're just ugly.
