#ryukyuan fc

[dear-indies]

Hi! I was looking for a FC for a college student? She's Japanese (I would prefer if she's Okinawan/ryukyuan but I know it's hard to find) and is 22, her personality is very clever and charismatic and a bit like a renegade. I would prefer if she had long thick curly hair (I initially used Mika Schneider but I decided to move on) but understand if it's impossible Thank you so much in advance!

Fumi Nikaidô (1994) Japanese Ryukyuan / Japanese - is the youngest Ryukyuan person I could find who fits the vibe!

Miyawaki Sakura (1998) Japanese.

Motola Serena (1998) Japanese.

Nagano Mei (1999) Japanese.

Tanabe Momoko (1999)

Kato Cocoro (2000) Japanese.

Asuka Kawazu (2000) Japanese.

Murakami Erica (2000)

Emi Fujita / 7_emil_y (2001) Japanese.

Hitomi Honda (2001) Japanese.

The long and curly hair was so hard to find for no reason!!

[helpersofindie]

Hi Helpers! I have a question; I’m using Ariana Miyamoto as a fc and I have Naoko Mori and Morris Chestnut as her parents. Would they work or should I change them?

hi, i’m not exactly sure if they would work because naoko is both japanese and ryukyuan, which is an indigenous ethnic group in japan, and i’m not sure if ariana is. morris would still work but for the mother, i would choose norika fujiwara (51), patti yasutake (69), shuko akune (63), ann harada (58), janice kawaye (52), diane mizota (49) or suzy nakamura (54).
