Swimsuit model and space alien Yuko Ogura is no longer the face of SEGA. The current “image character” is TK, and Ogura’s moved onto better things! Like being a “Live Face” mask model or being on TV sometimes and saying things. Look! Ogura now has a chain or Korean BBQ restaurants. I spotted one earlier today. Not sure if this is the kinda place I’d buy raw meat from to cook. And literally fifteen paces from the Ogura meat house?
New Sega “image character” Satomi Ishihara is kinda dull. Her predecessor, space alien Yuko Ogura? Fascinating. To bring everyone up to speed, Yuko Ogura was a two-time Sega “image character” and even appeared in a Sega produced kids’ show. Ogura claimed to be from an apple-shaped star called Korin, but has since shyed away from that nutty claim realizing that people don’t take seriously girls who say they’re aliens. Sega has since replaced Ogura with the more normal Ishihara. Still, Ogura makes perfect non-news fodder. Because remember: Once a Sega spokesperson, always a Sega spokesperson! Last time we checked in on Ogura, her image was being used as a “LIVE MASK.” This time? Her likeness is being used on schoolgirl uniform costumes… For men. Ogura Article [Tokyo Times]
Just because space cadet Yuko Ogura is no longer Sega’s “image character” doesn’t mean we can’t post non-news about her. Oh no. Once a SEGA spokesperson, always a SEGA spokesperson! Above is a an official Yuko Ogura LIVE MASK. Just take a gander at that! Are you creeped out? We are totally creeped out. And it takes a lot to creep us out.
