Sayuri Date: Her first endearing photobook "Ashiato" scans....

 

 Wasn't planning on taking a long hiatus, perhaps a day or two but it turned into 4 1/2 which truthfully isn't all that long. Whatever you do in life there are times you need a breather, it's why we have vacations and holidays at work. So it felt nice staying away for a few days but did write up the below reviews for two movies. I do feel a bit refreshed as I ended up doing some other things and sure most of you also know how a few days away from anything can recharge your batteries though not quite at 100%. Won't be back FT until about Sunday, didn't do any kind of prep work such as editing photobooks or magazine spreads plus didn't check out what many of my favorites have been doing. So give me another two days to work on things and and even with 4 1/2 days off sure September will end up having just as many posts as other months.

 This is Sayuri's third intro post and this book was all set to go so why not have it as a semi-lead in for my return. Those first two posts were just so-so popular, to date they've had 620 views between them but it does take a newbie a while to get many fans here. Then again Sayuri's books won't have gravure photos and that does affect how many views a post gets, not many voice actresses do a lot of gravure modeling. Maybe it's because I've been watching so many older movies but lately much prefer viewing photos that are on the conservative side and in all honesty it does get a bit monotonous looking at endless gravure model or J-Pop Idol photobooks. Sayuri has many more books than you would think, this is her first and her second will be coming out on November 6th. She also has seven digital books, two of those have been posted and bet I can do a post every other week for her until the end of the year.

 As many know I really like voice actresses, they may have become my favorite genre of women! Sayuri has done too many projects to list and has been a member of the Liella troupe since they began in early 2021, at the time they had five members and are now up to eleven. Have done many posts for one member and a few for some others, won't be possible to do posts for all but will try to feature as many as I can. Sayuri will be celebrating her 23rd birthday next week but will wait until the first week of October for her next post. There should be plenty of things coming up for that second photobook plus there are some older digital books from the last year or so to post. There are two versions of this book, the first was released on September 28, 2022 which was the date of Sayuri's 20th birthday. This is a slightly bigger version as there were ten more pages and was released on January 31, 2023. For the photo shoot Sayuri traveled to Okinawa and her hometown of Miyagi. There's a total of 98 photos, personally think this is a terrific book and hope a few others also do.... no video from the book's photo shoot but after the pics is a video from a fan meeting session for it.
