June 4th, 2024: Congratulations on another erikae in the karyukai! Kimishō (君翔) of Honjo (本城) in Miyagawa Cho is the celebrant this time! She was the only imōto of geiko Kimiaya (君綾), also of Honjo who left the profession back in 2021, but has grown into a hard worker and strong dancer. She is the third of four erikae to take place in two weeks across the karyukai, making this a very busy season! Her outfit features lucky plants among waves and kanji with a matching wave obi ^^ おめでとうさんどす君翔さん ^o^! Image is courtesy of the Miyagawa Cho Kabukai.

April 23rd, 2019: Congratulations to Kimishō (君翔) of Honjo (本城) in Miyagawa Cho on the occasion of her misedashi! She is the first imōto of Kimiaya (君綾), also of Honjo, who wore the exact same outfit during her misedashi back in 2007! Her unique geimei is a combination of the Kimi (君) that she inherited from her onesan and Shō (翔), which is part of her real name. She is a bit on the petite side, but this only serves to provide her with a great balance in her onesan as Kimiaya is almost 6 feet tall! Kimishō’s misedashi kicks off the second round of misedashi and erikae celebrations that tend to happen in bunches during the year and will be the first of at least six more events before the beginning of June! おめでとうさんどす君翔ちゃん ^o^!

March 14th, 2019: Two new minarai have made their debut! On the left is Mameaya (まめ彩) of Ninben (亻) in Gion Kobu, who will be debuting on May 9th. On the right is Kimishō (君翔) of Honjo (本城) in Miyagawa Cho, who will officially start her minarai period on March 27th and debut on April 23rd. It is unknown at this time who Mameaya’s onesan will be, but Kimaya (君綾) will be the onesan to Kimishō! They’ll both be experiencing long minarai periods due to the upcoming odori season, which start in just over two weeks ^^ Images are courtesy of Ktellusastory and Honjo Okiya and Ochaya.
