I never would've expected Sayuki's book to top any rankings. I'm so happy for her.

off-shot : Momona says she really enjoyed wearing the yukata and uniform and walking along the beach. She was happy to wear the uniform in her first year of high school.

Hello! Project & Morning Musume. '19 leader Fukumura Mizuki will release a new photobook on 23rd Birthday, October 30th. This is her 6th photobook and it is entirely shot in Taiwan.

She visited here a few times for live performances, so "Fuku-chan" expresses her charm in a familiar place.
There are plenty of unique shots in Taiwan where she spends her time at the resort, strolls through the old streets and enjoys tapioca and shaved ice. It is a work that thoroughly shows the overflowing [Beauty] of her adulthood.

Published by Wanibooks, Photography by Nakayama Masafumi. Includes making DVD.

I like the picture and the writing on the front cover, but as a whole it's.. ehhh. The collage on the back cover is really cute though.

Subtitled!



As always, make sure you have CC turned on.

The event and interview happened a year ago, so this is no longer current news, so it seems like this should be posted in the other videos thread. I posted it in this thread, however, because it's so specific to the topic of photobooks and why it was embarrassing/difficult/unusual/controversial for her to release one.

I still can't tell whether she is brilliant or insane, but I'm more certain than ever that people excuse her erratic behavior only because she is an idol and it's literally her job to be cute and entertaining.

So it will be no gravure (bikini) shot for Maa-chan, at least for now.

I was extremely touched by her embarrassment regarding her parents seeing her PB. Good on her for having principles; good on UF for allowing her to keep them.
