Kasumi Arimura: "Shin Kokyu" photobook scans
Wish more actresses put out photobooks as I think the number of them after they turn twenty is very small. Kyoko who had a post earlier today is an actress who has put out many of them, she just turned 35 and bet in the last decade she's had at least seven books. Satomi is another one who has had a few books after she turned twenty and there's three that come to mind. She released her latest one earlier this year and what a massive seller it was with total sales of 110,000+ as it was the third biggest selling PB of the year. Obviously then there is a market for older actresses (25+) to have photobooks and let's hope you know who is reading this.
You-know-who is Kasumi who will be turning 25 in exactly two months to the day. This has been her only PB and it was released on November 7, 2013 when she was twenty. It's called a photobook but it's not like most of them as it's kind of a 'greatest hits' set of pics from Young Jump magazine. Some of the pics appeared in their mags plus many were outtakes from the photo shoots.
But also many pics were new for the book as it was a timeline from when Kasumi started as an actress when she was seventeen and the pics went up to when she was twenty. Time has been kind to her as these days she looks so ravishing and a new PB from her would be a guaranteed mega seller. On to the pics and there's 85 in all, title means Deep Breath.
Great post of Kasumi, she is a Japanese goddess in photos and film.
