Men voted for Hoshino mainly for her nice body, while some women commented on Hoshino having a very youthful cuteness and style even at her age. Idol Akina Minami (20) was ranked #2 on the women's list, followed by model Yuri Ebihara (29).

On the men's list, the top-ranked Hayami received many comments about his athletic body and his stylish appearance in swimwear. Actor Kenji Sakaguchi (33) ranked second, and comedian Yoshio Kojima (28) ended up in third.

Congrats to Ayu!

Thanks for sharing.

go Ayu! i wonder why she didn't place high on the men's poll. i guess this returns to the fact that Ayu is a tad intimidating and that Japanese men tend to prefer cuter, unassuming women? psh, what do they know?

*searching on google*
D: Aki Hoshino is a gravure idol! LOL
So it is what people like her on 'summer wear' :innocent

btw congratz to Ayu

I can't argue with them, putting her in first place ;)
but very good 7th place for Ayu indeed :D

She definitely deserves to be in that list, that's for sure! :yes
