Television personality Aki Hoshino, 33, attended a KDDI event in Akihabara recently to publicize the quiz tournament, “Anime King Play-offs.” Actor Sho Aikawa, 49, was also in attendance to witness Hoshino dressed as popular anime character Creamy Mami.
"I really wanted to try on this outfit," said experienced cosplayer Hoshino. "I'd like to walk around outside dressed in this and see people's reactions."
Hoshino deflected questions about the prospect of marriage to her jockey boyfriend Kousei Miura, 21, with a grin, especially when she was asked if she had ever dressed up as Creamy Mami for Miura.

OK, so the quiz show is named "Anime King". What is it... an anime trivia quiz show? Only otakus need apply as contestants. No wonder they did the promo in Akiba! :-)

Aki....ahhhhh

After hard work, a couple can refresh with their creative co-play like this. A romantic marriage life expects both partners to have an imaginary mind. White Day is coming then. Hoshino may have a reason to grin and insist on her outfit performance.

I prefer Creamy Peanut Butter.

What does "experienced cosplayer" mean? Should this be important to anyone with a fully developed pre-frontal cortex?

Doesn't anybody think it's sad that this is the FIFTH story visible on this news site? What does that say about the local culture? Or is it a reflection on the editors?

Aki's boy toy is only 21? That means when she was 21, he was only 9!

I wish you that you are stranded on an uninhabited island with Aki Hosihino for one year. Hopefully this will bring you to your senses. Or the opposite.

I may use red color for yellow. The combination of purple hair, white and red outfit makes my girl friend looks a special Creamy Mami then.

So cute. I love the yellow stilts.

What are those little yellow threads hanging down off her dress?

She still has the reflex to show the cleavage on every photo, even after the downsizing.

It is a romantic night when my girlfriend puts on this outfit and do the same pose like Hoshino. Japan has valentine day and White day.

Nice photo. She obviously is not shy about showing off her reduced-size b**bs/cleavage. Lucky 21 year-old boyfriend -- for sure.
