"Sasagawa Miwa no Ooru Naito Nippon" (笹川美和のオールナイトニッポン, Miwa Sasagawa's All Night Japan) (October 2004 - March 25, 2005; March 3, 2006) Saturdays, 1:00 AM - 3:00 AM on
Nippon Broadcasting System
Her father operates his own civil engineering and construction company called Sasagawa Group Co., Ltd. Incidentally, the company produced an original Japanese hand towel in collaboration with the release of the song, "Utsukushii Kage" (「美しい影」, Beautiful Shadow).
"Warai" (「笑」, laugh), which could be called her seminal hit, was written for her cousin.
She was pen pals with Masayuki Kishima, the mayor of Shiunji, since before her major label debut.
She was the host of
All Night Nippon when the
2004 Chūetsu earthquake occurred. Since Miwa herself lives in Niigata, she received a lot of e-mails and postcards of encouragement from listeners. She was quite moved and actually cried during the show, in spite of herself. Fortunately, the earthquake was relatively weak in her home area of Shiunji and it received almost no damage. However, she did say during the show that she was forced to travel by air due to the
Joetsu Shinkansen being impassable.
She made a guest appearance at
INORAN's Tour Final 2007 (Part One) on October 6, 2007 at
Nakano Sun Plaza. She sang 3 songs from INORAN's first album "Sou" (「想」) and her own "Koorizatou" (「氷砂糖」, Rock Candy) which was produced by INORAN and
H.Hayama as well as two unreleased songs.error: {{nihongo}}: Japanese or romaji text required (

On December 29, 2008 she appeared at INORAN's Connectivity live show at Shibuya's duo MUSIC EXCHANGE live venue. She sang "Resolution", "Monsoon Baby," "Koorizatou" (「氷砂糖」, Rock Candy), and "Machiumare, Inakaumare" (「街生まれ、田舎生まれ」, Born in the City, Born in the Country).
As the host of All Night Nippon, she would often suddenly begin speaking to herself in an angry sounding tone as if she had lost her temper. Even her tagline in the show's commercial was her angrily saying, "Do I sound mad?!"
She appeared again as the host of All Night Nippon on August 25, 2012, about 6 years and 5 months since her last appearance. During the show she talked about the status of her father's company and mentioned that she was no longer the daughter of a company president.
