Hiroko Anzai, who built an era as a charismatic figure in gyaru culture from the 1990s to the 2000s, has released a recent photo of herself at age 47 on Instagram, sparking a wave of surprise online.

Anzai, who once captivated many young people with her glamorous gyaru makeup and fashion, now shows off a more natural, mature look with a gentle smile in the video, drawing attention for her calmer demeanor, a stark contrast to her earlier image.

After a period away from the spotlight, how has she confronted herself as she has returned to the entertainment industry?

Furthermore, her approximately six-year relationship with Kaname Kawabata of CHEMISTRY and her current work in the pet industry are also noteworthy. Now 47, she continues to express her own unique way of life while prioritizing her health.
