This is for the benefit of our Prediction Game participants.

The Miss International Japan 2014 finals will be held at the Yakult Hall in Tokyo's Ginza district on January 25th (Saturday). A total of 24 finalists are vying for the crown and here are the front runners, which also works as some sort of prediction as they will be ranked according to their chance of winning.

THE ONE WHO MIGHT WIN!

Image

TOMOE MINAGAWA. This demure beauty is actually one of the tallest contestants, and what is even more promising about her is the fact that she has a better leg proportion compared to an average Japanese woman. Normally. you'll find Japanese women whose numerical measurement says that she's tall, but the legs look short. In the case of Tomoe, she has longer-looking legs which is an advantage when she competes for the international title. A graduate of St. Andrews University in Osaka, this model knows how to speak Mandarin after studying in China for four months.

THEY WILL GIVE TOMOE A RUN FOR HER MONEY!

SAYA HATAI
Image

SAYA HATAI. With a very pretty face, this former volleyball star is well-versed in Korean and German. Currently, she is active in modeling for fashion magazine and has appeared in a few movies. She was a runner-up at the highly competitive "Kobe Collection" modeling competition in 2012, and is said to be very confident on stage. If there is someone who is going to be a serious threat for Tomoe, it's definitely Saya!

MIYU ARAI
Image

MIYU ARAI. An artist, actress and a TV talent. Miyu has the likable face that we normally see on Japanese TV. She actually looks familiar, or probably because she has the generic "cute" look that is very much loved here in Tokyo. Let's see if the judges, two of them I had known before as someone who is looking for "intelligent" women, will favor her.

AMI ISHIDO
Image

AMI ISHIDO. This brown-haired model from Chiba has the pretty next-door girl look which has a commercial appeal. But based on Miss International tradition, her kind of beauty is usually not favored. We are really hoping that the judges this year will not ignore her beauty because she has what it takes to make a strong impact in the Miss International pageant, which will be held here in Japan later this year.

WE WILL STEAL THE LIMELIGHT!!!

Here are the probable spoilers from the above-mentioned front runners.

NAOKO FUKUNAGA
Image

NAOKO FUKUNAGA. Naoko is a pageant veteran. She competed in MIJ 2012 and also tried her luck in 2013, but had to back out on the day of the competition. She also competed in the Miss Nihon 2013 beauty pageant. She was one of the finalists in the Miss Universe Osaka 2014 competition. We certainly hope that all these experiences and failures have helped Naoko in her quest for a real pageant crown. She is definitely someone to watch out for!


RIRA HONGO
Image

RIRA HONGO. Talking about a girl with the right connection! Rira is a friend of the current titleholder, Yukiko Takahashi. They competed together at last year's MIJ finals where Yukiko had won. We had the chance to meet Rira during the Miss International 2013 finals, which was held last December in Shinagawa Hall, and she was quite stunning! We are not just sure, though, that Rira is going to be favored after Yukiko's disappointing finish at Miss International.

HONAMI WACHI
Image

HONAMI WACHI. Speaking of another crown chaser, here comes Honami! The first time we met Honami was during the Miss Earth Japan finals last year. The second time was during the Miss Universe Saitama grand finals, where we expected her to do well. Shockingly, she was kicked out during the first cut, which was quite disappointing because Honami is actually very pretty in person, blessed with flawless skin. MIJ may just be her luck!

DARK HORSES

They may not be the top favorites, but these girls also deserve to win the crown.

RISA SHICHINO
Image

RISA SHICHINO. She has the best physique among all the contestants. If made up and transformed well, Risa can be a great contender locally and abroad. She is from the northern prefecture of Hokkaido and has appeared in a TV series.


YUMIKA AOKI
Image

YUMIKA AOKI. Among all the contestants this year, she is probably the one who is most comfortable in swimsuit! That's because she worked as one of the WOWOW Channel Swimsuit Girls. In fact, she was also a MISS FLASH 2014 finalist, which is another bikini-based competition in Japan. But then, this is Miss International, and having beautiful body is certainly not the main criteria for judging.

REMI OOSUGI
Image

REMI OOSUGI. Facially, she is one of the best looking this year. Her body proportion is also good. Our only issue with her is the fact that she is only 165 cm tall.

Japanese women are very pretty and so sweet. The only downfall I see is their legs.

Yes, she's indeed one pretty Asian girl! Maybe a runner-up finish? MIJ always chooses a tall girl.

It's really hard to choose cause they're not wearing make-up/wearing less make-up.

I agree that we can see who's naturally prettier with less make-up on. But they aren't exactly gonna compete at Miss Universe barefaced. Anyways I like Minagawa!

EDIT:

Image


Most of them look 100x better in this photo than in the glamshots.
