quote
The idea was to promote local farming by bringing in some city girls to do a spot of harvesting. The word nogyaru is a combination of nogyo (農業 - agriculture) and gyaru. Well, you might be interested to know that the fishing industry has decided that the farmers had the right idea and have now launched the Ugyaru Project.
The "u" of ugyaru comes from uo (魚 - fish, also read as sakana) and umi (海 - sea). Fisherman are frustrated that females have been forsaking fish in favour of fast food and want to foster fashionable faith in traditional folk food culture.

The new face of fish is charisma model Lie (rhymes with rye), who also seems to be known as Kei (rhymes with ray) as you can see here where she copies Lady Gaga's styling for the "No Wig, No Life" section of Gal Research Press. Lie will aim to counter the impression that fish is difficult to prepare and eat as well as encouraging more young people to work in the fisheries industry. There are plans is to arrange tours for gyaru mama - gyaru with kids - launch lines of stylish fishing workwear and set up classes to teach proper fish preparation. Lie herself has been working with restaurant chefs learning how to cut fish which is why she is pictured holding some slabs of maguro.
