When I found out I was pregnant, I was happy, but also scared. I wondered if everything would be okay. I wanted to be happy, but I knew I shouldn’t be too happy. I wondered if the baby would grow up safely. I was torn between these feelings of anxiety and joy, and I went around in circles every day. But I’d always wanted to connect the blood of my beloved ancestors, and it was one of my biggest dreams. I was so happy that this miracle had happened, and it was a new feeling: the past and the future exist together. I think it was a truly life-changing moment. Shoko Nakagawa Profile Born in 1985. Active in a variety of fields as a singer, TV personality, voice actor, actor, and illustrator. She continues to work with volunteers and animal welfare organizations to protect cats and find foster homes for them. She married in 2023 and gave birth to twin boys on September 30, 2025.
