*~*Seventeen*~* September 15, 2006 issue no. 23

   WAHHHHHH! *weeps* the final Keiko issue of ST! She finally graduates after just three and a half years of working as a contract model since her debut in 2003. It's a sad farewell as Keiko leaves the modeling world and turns her eyes towards becoming an actress. Bad for ST, good for Keiko's career, but still sad. The next time she DOES appear in the magazine perhaps she'll be a famous actress! I'm a little more than upset that they didn't allow Keiko to appear for one last time for her graduation. *rolls eyes* whatever. Still, at least she was given some sort of recognition. With a grand total of 2 cover appearances this year, it's her lowest year total yet! But don't fret, Keiko's grand total cover appearances has reached a final 16 times! Good work Keiko, we'll miss you in ST! *weeps some more* Oh! For those who wished to be informed, this issue features the girl I like to call Keiko's "replacement", Mitsuki Oosaki.
