Since she's my favorite Idoling member, these answers will be biased
First encounter with Erika: Gekkan Idoling!!! 2009/09: Instant love at first sight
My favorite thing(s) about Erika: Funny, extremely lively, a great smile, always happy, but can talk serious when she needs to. I also think she's very polite as she almost always bows the deepest of everyone. And her "assets" are a nice extra
She has a very nice autograph.
A memorable performance: Moment(s) that made me laugh: Too many to list...whenever she's talking funny
Just some random ones:
- uRa Idoling 20101105: Eve Jacket Photo Shoot Part 1 (talking with Maipuru while eating)
- Tokyo Idol Festival 2010: Vanilla Beans cosplay
- uRa Idoling Futarikkiringu
- whenever she's dancing in the group,she always seems to jump a bit up because she's so small
- during Royal Milk Girl, she always dances together with Morimoto-ana, total opposites in size
- Masuno always throwing her to the ground or pushing her in the water or sand.
- The Yazawa<>Hashimoto hatred, although it seems to have died down a bit lately
- Disco Idoling!!!
- playing a ghost at Natsuyasuming 2010
Moment(s) that surprised me: 7th Live picking up Maipuru, 8th Live (hurt her neck during rehearsels), crying the whole time during Zumi's last song at 4th live
Favorite solo line in a song: in "U"
Something I would say to her at a handshake event: since I will likely be shaking her hand at Shinahachi Live or her dvd release event on Jan 8th. I'd probably try to say something like "Shinahachi Live ikimashita to kyou-mo ikimasu". since it's appropriate for that day
A picture that I like:will need to look one up
A video that I like: will need to look one up (too many)
I believe she said somewhere (calendar release event ? ) she is already an H Cup.
The whole cup thing in Japan is total rubbish, it's pure marketing.
Compare Yazawa Erika to Takizawa Nonami. Yazawa is supposed to be H Cup now, while Takizawa is marketed as being I Cup, only 1 size more.
Takizawa is 155cm (5cm taller than Yazawa) and bust 95cm,while Yazawa is 88cm. But if you compare a photo or video, it is obvious that Takizawa is much more than Yazawa...
Pure marketing
H Cup might be wishful thinking for some, but I think Yazawa is more likely F-G Cup (in Japanese standards)
