The story
A thread reporting the marriage of an actress affectionately nicknamed “Main-chan” during her child-actor days popped up on 5ch’s Hello! Project board and pulled in 41 replies. Her husband is soccer player Kubo, and topics like her own age — 28 — and her husband’s height of over 170cm quickly became hot talking points. Long-time fans’ congratulations stood out in the thread, but there were also plenty of jabs at the new husband and tangents name-dropping past co-stars and colleagues, making for a thread that mixed celebration with teasing.
What people said
Comparing her to Booska is way too disrespectful to Main-chan (Booska being the old tokusatsu monster mascot).
Marriage runs on momentum.
she landed herself a good player.
Kubo's over 170cm.
for a second I thought it might be Airi, and that made me sad, so never mind.
Which means…?!
Then why'd you even open the thread, lol
She's still got fans?
She's with Ken-On, so that's a little sus (that agency always has rumors swirling).
I kind of feel like Meguro Ren, who co-starred with her in a commercial, would be a better match.

She's an Asadora actress, you know (NHK's flagship morning drama slot).

Background and Talking Points
5ch’s “Hello! Project board” is nominally meant for talk about idols from the Hello! Project franchise, but discussion of female celebrities in general tends to spill into it, which is why this marriage report about a former child actress drew so much attention there. Opinions in the thread split over how to judge her new husband, the soccer player: some posts praised him with lines like “she landed a good player,” while others teased that “she could have aimed higher.” Speculation about the couple’s height and age piled up reply after reply, with some posters stating things as settled fact that the couple themselves never actually confirmed — a reminder that not everything in the thread has been verified. Replies containing discriminatory language or insults aimed at the bride or her husband have been excluded from this article.
