TV announcer Akane Takiyama makes gravure debut
Akane Takiyama (瀧山あかね) is the latest Japanese TV announcer trying to forge a concurrent career in gravure.
She works as an announcer for shows on ABEMA (she joined the streamer in 2018) and is a former NMB48 “research student” (in 2011 and 2012, while in high school). The 29-year-old has now branched out into gravure with a cover shoot for Weekly Playboy that is making waves and rapidly expanding her fandom.
In the summery swimwear shoot for a June issue of Weekly Playboy, she is channeling some Kyoko Fukada vibes with a sporty beach body and radiant, smiling personality.
Other shots go for a more intellectual look with eyeglasses while showing off her slinky body and legs in a pencil dress that should get salarymen’s pulses beating with thoughts of office lady trysts between the desks after hours.
Let’s hope this leads to a good gravure career for Akane Takiyama.
For reference, here are some highlights from that classic Fukada shoot back in the 2010s. Kyoko Fukada is now in her earlier forties and still a stunner.
