Erina Mano: Her irresistible and breathtaking "Escalation" photobook.... a repost....

 

 Winding down with this unnamed series/project which has been for cleaning up some posts for older photobooks and pictorials, that's what digital books were called for a long time. The purpose was to combine so many books that had two posts into one, had a bad habit until 2017 to split books into two posts. That's the main reason for this book being posted again, sometimes it's because I obtained a better version of the book but that wasn't the case this time. A third reason and perhaps even the most important one is to have some of my older faves in the spotlight again, mainly ones who may never have a post here again. Hmmmm, one other reason is that this series has been a savior at time when there's not much else to post and this post did save the day as I had nothing else! But went yesterday without a post and hate to have two in a row, am working on a terrific post but it'd be better to hold off another day or two for that.

 Was going to wait until early September before doing this as there was a repost three weeks ago for another Erina book but has mentioned needed to move this post up by about ten days. Did mention about how it's nice to see a few of my older faves in the spotlight again even though it may just be for a few days. Up until mid 2018 I didn't have many bigger favorites than Erina, if things had worked out slightly different she may have had the number one position on my first 'All Time Top Twenty Faves' list done exactly seven yeas ago, she finished seventh which is still mighty impressive. Sure many long time visitors to this blog know all about Erina and it's women such as her which made this blog into what it's become. In my eyes it's hard to find a much more hotter/alluring/sexy and likable woman than Erina is, she's also a talented singer who often played the keyboards at her concerts and it's been a decade since her musical career ended. I first noticed Erina as an actress and she's been in quite a few dramas and films though very few since 2018. That's because she got married in the Summer of 2018 and ended up moving to Spain for a while so for the most part her career has come to a standstill but it's nice to relive the grand old ancient days once in a while.

 That above photo is something special to me as for over three years that had been my #1 photo of all time! It's been passed by a few other pictures but it'd still be in my top ten and how can one describe a photo such as that one(?), WOWOWOW!!!! That's from this photobook which was released on September 19, 2015 and at the time was Erina's eighth book. She released two more books after this one, Erina's final one that came out in March 2018 is her best one to me and would have it about fifth on my list of all time favorite photobooks. A month later Erina hit the age of 27 which means she's now 34, after that April 2018 birthday is when her activities slowed way down which is very common for women here who get married and eventually begin a family. The two posts for this book were extremely popular but when a book is cut in half it's hard to say how many actual views it may have received. May have one more of Erina's books after this, am undecided about her pictorials which all had two posts but they were very large so may leave them as they are. The photo shoot took place in Hawaii which was a popular location for Hello Project books, Erina was their top solo member by far though I've never considered her to be a J-Pop Idol. This book contains 101 photos that will simply amaze you so get the cold shower warmed up!!!! If your heart can take it after the pics is a 21 minute video of the photo shoot which I highly recommend viewing, will confess to watching it at least a hundred times....
