Actress Kazue Fukiishi, 26, was in a fighting mood this week at an event to promote her TV commercial campaign for a sports drink made in collaboration between Asahi Soft Drinks and Kagome. "Spo Vege," a vegetable-based sports drink, will go on sale April 7. The commercial started airing on Friday.
Fukiishi demonstrated her athletic prowess on stage when she kicked "Ninjin-kun" -- a character in the shape of a carrot -- several times. Fukiishi later said: "I'd like a guy who would let me kick him, and then we can drink Spo Vege together afterwards."

Hmmmm... In that first youtube vid her assets are quite a bit bigger than the current photo. Sign of the times I guess, everything has to be slimmed down.

She doesn't need to guard her head.

Her right hand is far to low to guard her head properly.

I approve of Kazue Fukiishi. And I volunteer to join her if she needs someone to go around and kick japanese salary men.

Hey, I´d let her kick me. She is quite a babe, and with an official website titled "fukky web", what is there to complain about?

Spo vege?! What a name.. she would have to plug that in for her last sentence of her PR line.. As for a guy, could think of a few that would do well from hard kicks and punches from her..!

LOL. She's kicking a carrot, and I bet Freud would have seen a strange mix between Eros and Thanatos in this strange performance.

I understand that Japanese consumers "drink up" this kind of silly/childish promotion. But why do you constantly have to subject the rest of us to this nonsense? Are there not J-celebrities doing anything worthwhile discussing?

Kazue Fukiishi was quite a healthy beauty before she went on the typical post-gravure idol days starvation diet, so that we'll appreciate her for her acting and not her bustline.
Anyway, you guys be the judge:

"Spovege" as a product name?"
It's Spo Vege, and, hey, that's better than Pocari Sweat, ain't it?

Poor jumbo sized carrot.
But "Spovege" as a product name?
Sarge
I'll bet Spo Vege doesn't taste as good as V-8.
I'll also bet that Fukiishi can find plenty of men in Japan who would not only let her but beg her to kick them, ha ha ha!
