Aya Ogawa’s first Weekly Shonen Champion cover after graduating from high school steps away from the school uniforms used in several of her earlier appearances. For issue No. 35, the Nogizaka46 member wears a white one-piece dress tied to her glow-stick color and a pale-blue sleeveless knit for an outdoor sequence.
The July 30 issue marked Ogawa’s ninth appearance in the magazine. She was 19 at the time, and the feature keeps her familiar smile in view while using the wardrobe change to acknowledge the transition she described herself.
