Kawaii Taishi - Japanese Cute Ambassadors

Japanese pop culture ambassadors, from left, Misako Aoki, Yu Kimura and Shizuka Fujioka

 

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has chosen three young models as "Ambassadors of Cute," international representatives of Japan's pop culture. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs hopes that sending Aoki-san and the other two cute ambassadors around the world will increase international understanding of Japan and its people. These activities will then benefit Japan in the future by cultivating goodwill towards Japan as a nation.

 

Models Misako Aoki, Yu Kimura and Shizuka Fujioka will be representing Lolita, Harajuku and schoolgirl fashions respectively at foreign events as "Kawaii Taishi" (Ambassadors of Cute - カワイイ大使), including Japan Festa in Bangkok in March, and Japan Expo in Paris in July.

 

The ambassadors have been busy. Shizuka Fujioka was in Thailand in March, and Misako Aoki and Yu Kimura in Paris in July being cute and creating new friends of Japan. Misako Aoki was also in Spain separately in October.

In March 2008, the ministry appointed the robotic cat animation character, Doraemon, as "anime culture ambassador."
