November 2025 Issue” (Tokyo News Service) Photography by Mae Kosuke On August 31st, the “Aozora Summer Festival 2025” was held at Toyosu PIT in Tokyo, and after a great success, Kanazawa Ami appeared from the blue sky that I had been wanting to see. Kanazawa is one of the popular members who has been selected for every single single, from the second single “Graduation Until Now,” when the selection system began, to the latest sixth single, “Shimenawa no Love Letter.” She’s also renowned for her “idol power,” and now, two years after the group’s formation, she spoke about her feelings for the group and as an individual. Her long-awaited first selection as center! STU48’s Takao Sayaka makes a solo appearance.

This time, we left the hustle and bustle of the city behind and filmed in a spot rich in nature and clear air. Surrounded by familiar staff, Takao appears relaxed, wearing a camisole outfit that reveals more skin than usual and exuding a seductive expression. Enjoy the images of Takao, captured carefully and with careful attention.
