A week ago someone uploaded an edited clip of a very cute and enthusiastic Weather Girl happily chirping about learning Shogi until she got an earthquake alert in which she immediately shifted from a giggly girl to a serious and stoic reporter. So drastic was her transformation that the clip immediately went viral, sending the video counts up into the millions!
She was so cute and charming that I had to learn more about her, and the uploader was eager to share the info! Her name is Saya Hiyama who, as a regular face on the Japan Weather News Channel, had given way to hundreds of cute clips of hers in various situations!
Like the other hundreds of new fans of hers, I dove down the rabbit hole and spend a good time watching all of her clips, all featuring Saya’s adorable expressions. Some fun clips include this one here where she is talking about her earrings. She is talking about the color…and then the camera zooms in on her ear, making her gasp in surprise!
One of my FAVORITE clips is this one where the texture and collar of the outfit makes it seems like Saya is wearing a t-shirt for her broadcast, and people begin good-naturedly teasing her that she is wearing pajamas! She tried in vain to show and explain that it is in fact a proper, stylish dress, but the comments keep calling it pajamas, LOL!
Since then I’ve tuned into her antics every day!
