Did y'all know Kamei had a littler sister in the industry?

[Shoujo Q]

A younger sister named Rina apparently. [Blog Post]



She's a model/actresstoo.



She sorta looks like Eri, but it kinda gets all messed up in the mouth. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... popper.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':puppyeyes:' />

[Ap2000]

Doesn't look anything like Eri to me.



This is quite a good photo though:

Her profile photo is bad though.

[Gerald]

Pretty, but not as good as her sister <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ebleed.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':puppyeyes:' />.

[stoveroad]

She has the same face shape as Eri, but I don't see any other similarity.

[Melon]

Either that's a different sperm donor or Eri stole all the pretty genes for herself. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... popper.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':puppyeyes:' />

[AEUGNewtype]

I actually kinda like her, but maybe that's just my subconscious spiting Eri because I'm really tired of her. Has she done anything major yet?

[stoveroad]

I wouldn't say she isn't pretty. She just has that weird Pat Benatar underbite thing happening.

More like Eri has had the backing of the stylists of a major idol agency for years and years. In her auditions her mouth wasn't quite as bad as her sister's, but Eri certainly wasn't the girl she is today.

[Pucchi-Mo]

Plus Eri gets placed next to several ugly bitches daily. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /angel.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':popper:' />



Yeah, the blog pic in front of a green screen is way more flattering than the profile image.

Hey, they even both have AB blood.



How did you find her?

H!O they are good for more then just downloads and pictures.

[AEUGNewtype]

That blog picture actually kinda makes her look like Kanako Hoshino..for the 2 of you who know who she is... and that's a good thing. Me likes.

I'd say she looks more like Racoon Face Noria, especially from those other photos. Kanako looks a little more like Tsuji or Nacchi.

I agree with both of you. She kinda looks like Kanako in the blog pictures, and Noria in the agency one. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':popper:' />

[vanillacat]

Her face is definitely more... interesting, I'll give her that. But lord, what some braces to fix that under bite would do...



(That being said, her face IS reminding me of someone, someone higher profile than who AEUG mentioned, who I can't put my finger on...)

[moralar]

She looks more Reina-like to me (in the green-screen shots).

[thamychan]

Wow, I can't really see the resemblance... She's strange in those pictures but there are some in which she looks pretty, when she's wearing lighter make-up. In the others... there was one that made me think of Liz Taylor. Nowadays.



I think I've heard Eri say she has a sister, or someone else but I'm not sure in which context. But thank you for the information!

[Gerald]

Just out of interest (OK, OK I'm bored with nothing to do <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... stling.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':cryalot:' />), what other siblings do we know of.



I know Maki Goto has her two older sisters/younger brother, Mari Yaguchi and Makoto Ogawa have a younger sister each, Yossie had the younger brother who was tragically killed and I think Ai Kago had younger brothers and sisters and doesn't Sayumi have a younger sister?

Tsuji has an older sister. Check this clip at the 2:47 mark.



Nacchi's younger sister is Asami Abe and also an idol.

Edit: Just learned Asami sang the opening song for the Japanese version of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom. The North American version is in English and Jazzier.



Koharu has an older sister who looks just like her. She popped up as a topic not too long ago in a thread.



I'm not sure about anyone else or if there are anymore siblings.

It's a (imho disgusting) style called "ganguro".

I'm all for a bit of individuality and freedom of expression but who thought "Hey this is a great look and we'll be beating the boys off with a stick". I'm too old for this sort of thing <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... nfused.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':cryalot:' />.

Okay, this is as far as I know:



Takahashi: 1 younger sister, I think.

Risa: 1 younger sister

Eri: in addition to Rina, she's got an older brother (I'm not sure if he's been mentioned on any of their radio shows, though.)

Sayu: older brother and sister

Reina: 1 younger brother

Aika: 1 older sister



Shimizu Saki: 2 brothers

Momoko: 1 younger brother

Chiinami: 3 sisters

Miyabi: 1 younger brother

Yurina: 1 younger brother

Risako: 1 younger brother



Maimi: 2 older brothers

Airi: 1 younger brother (who's expected to follow their dad into golf)

Chisato: at least a younger brother and sister. Maybe another sister as well. Anyway, one of her sisters is Okai Asuna, who's an H!P Egg





...clearly I have way too much time on my hands <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... nfused.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

[Special Needs Tricycle]

I have a contribution here!



Aika, her dad, and her older sister



Chisato has 2 younger sisters I think? Asuna and a baby sister. She mentioned in a concert MC that her baby sister just started saying her name. "Chisha~ Chisha~". Cute. :B



I still have pictures of Koharu's sister is anyone wants those too.



I love these things. I want to see more H!P family members. :<

[strawberryjam]

Sorry if it was known already, but I didn't know one of the Shin Minimoni girls was Maimi's cousin. http://j-ongaku.org/wiki/Takeuchi_Akari <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... hahaha.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':pouty:' />

JunJun also has at least one sibling, no idea if male/female and older/younger though.

So her older sister got the good looks then (notice I didn't mention talent as well).

I'm with you on that.

[Arichii]

I'm pretty sure that Mai Hagiwara had an older sister who also auditioned for H!P kids like Mai, but she didn't make it.

Her older sister is painfully bland, and is seemingly using her hand to hide her own version of Aika's charm point.



Mr. Mitsui is hot though.
