This costume is a one-in-the world unique piece, custom made by measuring Aya's every nook and cranny. In my own way, I got completely into Birdy's role! Everyone in the staff was telling me "That's exactly like Birdy!", so it was a pretty good day... I hope all the Birdy fans who see these photos will feel the same way. I don't get to have this sort of experience very often, so I was really happy!! by Aya Kiguchi

Let me tell you about Aya-Birdy!! You know, I actually own a copy of Kiguchi's picture collection myself... lol! I saw it in a late-night program and I thought the visuals were nice, so I bought it. Then, when the editor told me "Why don't we do a Birdy gravure shot?", and we started thinking about who should wear that costume, he said "Kiguchi Aya-chan sure would be nice...". "I think so too!", lol. She has a nice body, and she looks good in a standing pose. The costume also came out pretty cool-looking, so, as the original author, I'm very satisfied with this photoshoot! by Masami Yuuki

Moreover! The sexy Kiguchi/Birdy shots that couldn't get printed this time can be seen at VisualWeb!

The second half of Aya Kiguchi's photoshoot continues on page 451!! There's also an "Aya Kiguchi/Birdy" phone card present!!!
