Kaori Ozawa (小澤 かおり, Ozawa Kaori, born August 16, 1992 in Ota, Gunma, Japan), better known by her stage name Zawachin (ざわちん), is a Japanese idol, make-up artist and television personality who was originally known for her impersonation of Tomomi Itano of AKB48. She has 400,000 followers on her official blog.

However, she has been highly criticized by public on all social media forums owing to her unethical remarks and questionable acts. On 18 September 2017, Zawachin posted four images of mesmerizing views of Tokyo DisneySea on her blog with a comment. Shortly, it became clear that the images were simply taken from a Twitter post done by an amateur photographer. The comment posted on her blog was also exactly the same with the photographer's original comment. Moreover, Zawachin erased the copyright information of the photographer that was put on one of the images.
