Itagaki, the shortest contestant of Miss World 2013, has become a hotly-discussed topic among Chinese netizens. With only 152 cm in height, she is a student at Peking University in Beijing and has been called a ‘super-scholar goddess’ by web users.

Many short girls shared their pictures online and left comments such as "Although we are short, we’re giants in our hearts", "Rarely taking full-figure photos, I have to say: short stature is not our fault, we just need to be giants in our hearts."

After finishing her college education in Japan, Itagaki came to Beijing and became a student at the School of Chinese as a Second Language, Peking University. Within less than one year, she obtained several certificates and so was called a super-scholar goddess.

It takes Itagaki one-hour to ride the subway from the place where she lives in Beijing to Peking University. She gets up at six o'clock in the morning and leaves for school before half past seven. She said she made a lot of friends in Peking University from all over the world and life in the school is very memorable. 

Itagaki pays close attention to her image. She has attended beauty school in Japan. She has a set of make-up tools, in a cosmetic case, including 35 eye shadows and 47 lip balms.

She always puts on makeup very carefully before going out.
