My Take
Manabe went from Yokohama National University into gravure and television, an odd pair of credentials. Then came the blog. Before anyone in Japan said "social media", she was writing loosely in her own voice and pulling a readership big enough to get her called the Queen of Blogs. That template worked because nobody was writing it for her.
