Kiko was such a sweet and beautiful girl. She is still beautiful and never fails to put up a smile no matter how hectic her schedule is.

It is my first time to see this pictures, I see the young nervous and happy girl before she became a princess.

kiko looks really sweet as a young girl and as a baby. In the Picture as a young girl she looks like Mako, what do you think? But I think I have never seen Mako smiling like this.

The same thought crossed my mind when I saw Kiko's childhood photos. I always thought the princesses favoured their father Akishino in looks, but you can definitely see the resemblance to Kiko in these photos.

I also thought Mako and Kako take after their father in looks but as the early pics of Kiko show, they will more likely resemble her in a few years.

Princess Kiko is lovely! I don't know much about her except her bio at Wikipedia- but one thing, she always looks serene and smiling. The two Japanese princes (Naruhito and Akishino) have exceptional taste in women.

I think this princess is lovely. Her smile is just adorable...Kako and Mako are really beatiful too, but yes...they are more like their father in physical features. None of them has a so lovely, sweet smile.

Currently it belongs to her. She has the sole right to use it. However, when she passes away, it will be available to the use of the other royal ladies.

If I would have been japanese, I should be proud of such a nice Imperial Family.
