Preamble:
When it comes to child stars in the mainland, many people have the impression of Zhang Yishan, Yang Zi, Shi Xiaolong, etc., although they are still active in the entertainment industry, they will inevitably fade away from the immaturity and innocence of childhood.
If mainland child stars are famous by their acting skills, then Japanese child stars rely on their appearance.
Kanna Hashimoto, Aina Ashida, etc. are all Japanese child stars who are popular at home and abroad, and with their beautiful and pure appearance, they have "harvested" many fans for a while.
How many of the following Japanese god-faced female celebrities do you know?
Kanna Hashimoto
Born in 1999, Kanna Hashimoto was once known as a "once-in-a-millennium beauty", debuted at the age of 10 and became an instant hit at the age of 14.
When Kanna Hashimoto was 14 years old, a set of photos instantly became popular on the Internet, and her name instantly became synonymous with beauty.
But after a long time, Kanna Hashimoto does not enjoy the dividends brought to her by "appearance", after all, the price of being good-looking is that it is difficult for her strength to break through the skin and be seen by the audience, so she entered the entertainment industry.
Later, Kanna Hashimoto tried many different types of works, with the aim of stepping out of the circle of "only appearances".
The filming moments of "Gintama" and "I Am Big Brother" let us see the possibility of Kanna Hashimoto.
After the filming of these two works, many of her memes instantly appeared on the Internet.
The studio saw that this was not good, and if Kanna Hashimoto, who took the idol route, continued like this, no one would buy her appearance immediately, so she took on some youth idol dramas later.
But for Kanna Hashimoto, she doesn't seem to care about her appearance, maybe it's because of this that she is more popular with everyone because she is not pretentious.
It makes sense that Kanna Hashimoto can explode because of her appearance, and she is still a little fat in the later stage, but when she is fat, she can still see that her foundation is very good.
Reina Ashida
Speaking of the popular child stars now, the most popular one must be Ashida Aicai. As soon as she debuted, she was called the "national daughter", and last year, she was admitted to a very good university in Japan with excellent grades.
Many people say that Aina Ashida's life script is like a textbook, not only has she become a child star since she was a child, but her grades are also very good, and she will definitely have a bright future in the future.
It is rumored that the Japanese imperial family has publicly stated that their ideal type is Aina Ashida. But when netizens saw the photos of the royal heir, they said that they must not ruin her.
But now netizens don't seem to be as worried as before, because the current Ashida Aina has long lost the immaturity and innocence of her childhood, and some netizens even think that she is "disabled".
Indeed, the visual impact she brought to us when she was a child was too strong, and the whole person was very delicate and cute, but when she grew up, she lost the agility of her youth, so it is easy to be considered "disabled".
Now Aina Ashida is still active in the entertainment industry, not only does she often participate in variety shows, she is also an actor, singer, and even often dubbing different characters.
In 2021, Aina Ashida dubbed the Japanese version of "Godzilla vs. Kong", and in the past two years, she has starred in works such as "The Last Haircut" and "The Best Teacher".
Compared with Kanna Hashimoto, Aina Ashida's works are basically some campus or family dramas, although there are not many types of works, but we can feel that her acting skills are still very good.
But many people feel that 19-year-old Aina Ashida has long lost the innocence of her childhood, and some people even think that she is disabled.
Ayaka Kino
Hearing this name, many people can clearly feel that she is a little girl as pure and bright as the sun, as a child star, Konno Ayakina has set off a "wind of innocence" in Japan.
She debuted at the age of 3 and starred in works such as "Yomiuri Junior High School Student News" in 2014, which attracted more and more attention, and everyone called her a "white goblin".
The cold white skin and delicate facial features make people irresistible and want to know more about this child star.
In 2018, she starred in "Kamen Rider", although in this drama, the character played by Ayakusa Konno is a villain, but because of her innocent and white appearance, people can't help but think that the protagonist is the villain.
She starred in a "Subscription Girlfriend" that has attracted a lot of attention and discussion. In this work, Ayakina Konno is a beautiful woman who is pursued by many men.
But these men all have girlfriends, and according to normal thinking, Konno Ayakina can't be with these people, but in "Subscription Girlfriend", she can sign a short-term girlfriend contract with these boys and become their "subscription girlfriend".
I have to say that the Japanese have a very big brain, although it is a bit contrary to the three views, but the popularity of this work is still very high when it is broadcast, which may have something to do with Japan's unique culture.
When I saw the current photos of Ayaknatsu Konno, many people said that she was disabled. It may be that her appearance when she was a child was too amazing, so it makes us think that she has a situation of "driving high and walking low", but in fact it has not reached the point of being disabled.
Kanon Tani
As a child star similar to Aina Ashida, she was affectionately called "Beauty Servant" and "Little Devil Servant" by netizens after her debut.
Gu Huayin, who was born in 2004, debuted at the age of three, and has participated in many works in the past ten years, at the same time she is also a voice actor, and has dubbed works such as "Your Name" and "The Song of the Dew That Announces the Dawn".
After seeing Gu Huayin's recent photos, many people felt that she was not as good-looking as she was when she was a child, and she was a degree fatter, and there was no difference between her and ordinary people.
Since 17 years later, Gu Huayin has rarely appeared in works, and has spent more time on studying.
Summary:
Child stars often face the situation of "driving high and walking low", after all, they were attracted to cuteness and innocence when they were young, but when they grow up, this innocence is bound to disappear, and it is difficult not to go downhill.
If you want to maintain your popularity, you need to open a new path and transition from idol to powerful. Child stars such as Zhang Yishan and Yang Zi have changed the audience's inherent perception of them in this way, and they are still active in our sight.
Japanese child stars such as Aina Ashida and Kanna Hashimoto have become popular all over the world, and it is hard not to like their cute looks. But whether they can continue to be liked by everyone when they grow up requires them to create more good works.
Are you familiar with these Japanese child stars?
