Her intense gaze complements the languid mood of her lace dress, creating a white-based look. Furthermore, in this interview, we delve into her true charm, having made her solo debut as “yousti” one year after graduating from Sakurazaka46. She spoke frankly about the thoughts behind her first mini-album “yousti,” released on Wednesday, August 27, 2025, and her thoughts on her future endeavors. “I chose an artist name because I wanted to do something that couldn’t be imagined under the name ‘Yui Kobayashi,'” she says. Stay tuned to see what kind of world she will create.

This issue marks a milestone as she steps into a new stage with “andGIRL PLUS,” a sister magazine for which she has previously appeared on the cover. No matter how old she gets, she always shines brightest “now,” and with a big smile, she said, “This is where my best time as a model begins.” Her appearance is the very definition of “adult girl envy,” continuing to shine even as she ages. We can’t take our eyes off Mika, who continues to show us new charms. *The double cover (back cover) is the same for both the regular and special editions.

https://prcdn.freetls.fastly.net/release_image/4237/1699/4237-1699-49b6df23355aef19d5d040af83812b8d-3750×2109.jpg “andGIRL” is a women’s fashion magazine launched in October 2012 with the concept of “for adult ‘girls’ who want to shine even if they’re in their thirties, successful in their careers, or married!” Until publication ceased in September 2020, the magazine continued to provide the latest information on beauty, lifestyle and other topics such as trendy makeup and the latest cosmetics, and other topics that “cute and mature” glamorous office ladies wanted to know, see and experience right away, and was loved by many readers and models. Since then, information has been provided as “andGIRLweb”
(https://www.andgirl.jp/ ), but due to the strong support from those who wanted it to be relaunched, it was relaunched as a quarterly magazine in March 2023. The new “andGIRL” is based on the keywords “sparkle,” “popularity (heart),” and “practical.” Even as women advance their careers and take on greater responsibilities in society, or get married and have a family, they never forget to improve themselves and think about investing in their future. Aimed at ambitious, sparkling adult girls, the new magazine will widely disseminate real and useful information on fashion, beauty, lifestyle, and more, both online and offline, as a “hybrid media that combines magazine and online.” Official website: https://www.andgirl.jp/ Official Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andgirl_jp/ Official X : https://x.com/andgirl_jp Official Pinterest:
