Iori Sagara: Another sizzling post of πππ πππ πππ πππ ππππππππ digital book plus more goodies!
That first photo is one of my all time favorites and it's led off a post a few other times, I could stare at that from now until the end of eternity and never get tired of it! But I am getting a tad tired of there being so few newish photos for Iori this year, she's had six posts which is an okay amount but most of those have been of me featuring things from the second half of 2025 that hadn't been posted and that was a busy stretch for her.
Think Iori has had only three magazine spreads for this year along with five digital books but three of those were early on in 2026 so the photo shoots took place last year. Fairly positive Iori just needed a break from gravure modeling and not many models have had as many digital books or mag spreads as she's had the past three years. Iori is currently in a stage play and that's been going on for a month so it should be wrapping up soon so let's hope that's when she returns to the activities which have made her so popular here. It's been about three years since Iori became a FT model and before that she had never done any gravure modeling. Seeing her dressed scantly was a shock at first but such a pleasant one, Iori is very close to being Nogi's hottest member ever and wish more had followed in her footsteps with that dramatic career switch!
Iori has become one of my all time favorite gravure models and would place her in about the fifth position on a list. The only reason she isn't higher or battling for #1 is because of the late start she had to modeling but if Iori continues on she does have a shot at being number one to me! And why not as Iori has such a sizzling figure and how didn't Nogi's management notice that, perhaps if she had a photobook while a member she may have stayed with the group longer. Iori's last post was done six weeks ago but this is it for solo photos from her IG page. Which is so much lower than usual and there were no pictures from any recent photo shoots.
This week marks Iori's eighth anniversary of leaving Nogi and she was the first second generation to graduate. That's when Nogi was starting to become too huge, most members from the first two generations were still there plus so weren't all the members from the newish 3G, a year later 4G members came aboard so with that many gals it's easy to get lost in the shuffle. It did take a while for Iori's solo career to hit it's stride but when it happened she became one of the most popular ex-members. The posts for the first two generation graduates have really slowed down, there's only two others besides Iori who consistently have been having posts. Let's go way back in time for these ancient Nogi cards which are for July 2014/15, none has been posted before. The bottom three cards are for Nogi's July 2015 single "Taiyou Knock" and that was a decent song, how I miss that period of J-Pop.
From last August to December Iori was quite busy as she did so many photo shoots which resulted in at least six magazine spreads and ten digital books. The pair for today may wrap up all of Iori's 2025 books and think there may be one or two left from earlier this year to post, then we have to wait for Iori to make her return! Both of today's mini books were published by the Flash magazine, to promote then Iori was the cover girl for their November 4th issue.
On to the pair of Flash digital books which just contain 77 photos so could have been combined into one book. Both were released on the same day which was October 21st, this first set of 37 pictures had the title of "Intertwining Body Heat" and whew(!), Iori certainly has plenty of heat, whew again!
This final set for today contains forty photos and had the title of "Kimi ga iru kara boku ga iru" which is something to do with fairy tales and it's easy to see Iori in one of my(our) fantasy tales.... I think this set is better than the above batch and sadly couldn't find any videos for the book. Even more sadder is that Iori no longer uploads videos to her YT channel and she had so many from her photo shoots which were simply dazzling! So after these pics is the last gravure video she uploaded which was in May 2024, can't think of enough adjectives to describe it's sultriness....
