About shoe size!!  235 Korea = 37 - 38 European (it is halfway) = 37 Latin America = 36 Brazil = 23.5 Japan = 6 1/2 USA = 4 1/2 UK which is my size as well as Risa's (I didn't know that!).

Suzuki did mention on her blog that she had a lot of trouble finding both XXL size socks and cute shoes for her size. A 25.5 would be like a 40 european or 8.5 US which is comparatively big for the country since M size Japanese shoes are 23-23.5. I didn't mean to say her feet are huge for the entire world, I think they are huge within context and that by the way sizing S-M-L shoe sizes go for Japan Japanese women's feet sizes must be very homogeneous. Plus, unlike a big waistline, I don't think having big feet can give you any health problems except maybe a headache when you go shopping so I don't think anything of it.

What I did mean with my exclamation was that she was going to be super tall because feet are the first thing that grow when you hit puberty, so by the time she grows into them she will probably be as tall as the giant girl from Berryz. Again, the girl from berryz is not ginormous either, she is just super tall for Japan. I think I read somewhere she is 183 cm which must be normal somewhere. How tall is Zukki now any way?

I actually think it is really cool to see diversity in idol groups because it makes it possible for different girls to identify with different members. Don't take me wrong, I really like her, her personality is really cool and if anyone in momusu can pull off being a chubby idol, it's her. However, like I told you on my first post I do have a different background and if she were my little sister I would be really concerned about her health especially if I saw she didn't overeat and had good exercise because she may have a thyroid problem or something. Which could very well be her case, so of course I'm happy if I see her lose a little weight since it means that whatever it is, whether a medical condition or just plain-old stress driving her to a pile of ice cream, is being put under control.

Mizuki-wota, she looks great on that pic I do think they dress her wrong but I also think they cover her with sacks intentionally because she is very young and I don't think her parents would want her showing off her puppies just yet. I think it also has to do with wanting to keep the same short skirt style for all momusu which I find kind of boring really. Lately they always dress the same. I like it more when there is a bit more variety in the styles and It would mean hopefully more flattering clothes for Suzuki. Also hopefully this summer they would find her something better looking for the summer photobooks since they always manage to find her creepy outfits for that, not that I actually would actually authorize my daughter to get bikini photobooks at 13, but they could totally find her cute summer dresses like the pic you posted instead of those freaky tankini things they use. This also leads me to believe her parents actually ask her agency to dress her very conservatively... which I think they should do with all the other younger members as well. I find it creepy that they have bikini pics while under 15 and are in very grownup magazines like playboy. I really don't see the need to do this. Anyway, back to zukki, she does look great with that dress and baby pink suits her.

First: Please take into consideration that I'm writing from a country where Suzuki Kanon would be considered severely overweight for a girl her age making every pediatrician worry about cardiac disease. She would even be considered fat for a woman twice her age. Here young girls tend to all be, what US standards would consider, very skinny and put on a bit of weight as time passes by until they reach a plateau during their mid 20s and people are usually on the short side. To give you an idea I'm considered tall (I'm 166cm) so I can get away with looking what is considered normal in spite of having what is considered really chubby legs and hips and weighing 60Kg. At 64Kg I was considered a giant 24 year old fat lady. At 54-56Kg I'm considered a healthy skinny and anything less I lose every curve (not that I have any on the top section unless I look overweight elsewhere) and start looking anorexic for my age. When I was 18 I has considered healthy skinny but I was 53Kg and at 58Kg and 17 years old I was considered fat. One of my best friends growing up is normal height for here (158cm) and when she reached 56Kg after living in US for a year she looked like she had rolled off the plane. She had gained 13Kg. She had been considered healthy skinny for her age (19) before leaving. She is now considered normal looking and weighs 47Kg. She is 25 years old.

Having said that and hoping my comments are read taking into consideration the cultural differences some people may have with me:

I looked at Suzuki Kanon's blog and I'm really happy that she has actually lost a bit of weight around her face  , she tends to get chubby around her neck and cheeks which makes her face shape look weird and bigger than she actually is. I think the reason they let her get away with getting fat, even if her face looks strange is because she's gotten pretty curvy now, sort of like Kago when she was in W (only her face didn't look weird at all). She is at that key age of puberty in which if you get fat you will later have giant boobies even if you lose a lot of weight (context: here average for a grown woman is B cup and good luck finding anything bigger at the store). 

She looks so much better! Before, her cheeks were so chubby that they were wider than her cheekbones, now she has a more normal triangular shape to her face and she has lost the double chin. I am really happy for her, she looks more like her old self and so much better. I am confident at some point she will lose the baby-fat around her knees and slim down all over but keeping a nice curvy figure greatly due to letting herself have a chubby stage during her early teen years. Or maybe he will keep the weight and have a growth-spurt which will have the same visual effect.

She also mentioned she wears 25 or 25.5 shoe size WHICH IS FREAKING HUGE!! This girl is probably going to be a giant when she finishes growing up.
