Yurina Yanagi: Two new jaw-dropping mag spreads and much, much more!
Jaw-dropping is an apt term for Yurina's pics and these days you don't need all the fingers on one hand to count how many top her. Would say she's been my second fave gravure model for the past 3-4 years, had she done more spreads or huge pictorials she probably would have claimed the top spot. This year has been slightly busier for Yurina after a somewhat quiet 2017 as there were very few posts for her last year but the pace has been picking up the past few months.
In 2016 she was 13th on my 'Top Twenty Faves' list, if she's somewhat busy the next two months can see her making this year's list as I'm still short about five gals or so. One reason Yurina hasn't appeared in as many pictorials as other gravure models is because she's been concentrating on her acting career and it's beginning to pay off.
"Think Again, Junpei" is Yurina's first major role in a film as she has the female lead in it and the movie is a major one. She's only been in one minor drama this year but has appeared in ten of them in the past four years and about the same amount of films since 2014. Seems to me there's been more gravure models than ever who have become a bit successful as an actress the last few years. One advantage they have over J-Pop Idols is their height, Yurina's is 167 cm while most Idols tend to be less than 160 cm which really hurts their acting career.
At the top of the post is the trailer for "Think Again, Junpei" and it seems to be an intense film. Have seen the lead actor in many things and he's fairly good but hope her didn't get too frisky with Yurina! Pics here are from the film's premiere which took place last Saturday, September 22nd. Compared to the spreads for today she's definitely dressed so conservatively which isn't a bad thing as she does have quite an attractive face which many might overlook.
Yurina did quite a few interviews with many websites for the film, looking super duper in these pics form the Abemetimes site.
Interview pics here are from the Mantan Web site.
This is the cover for Yurina's 2019 calendar which is coming out in a few weeks. She' scheduled to have an event for it in the last week of October and will have a post for it, hopefully that means we'll be seeing her in many new mag spreads.
Yurina has an Instagram account but doesn't upload all that many pics but the ones she does post are simply out of this world! Least four through six are.
On to Yurina's two mag spreads for today and like all of her others they're simply amazing. This first set is one of the best of the year and is from the September 7th issue of Friday.
She has the cover for the other set that's from the October 8th edition of WPB. After the pics check out a July CM, may be hard to notice because of Yurina but it's for a Yamamoto Barley drink.
