Riho Yoshioka: The (hopefully) return of such a massive Nao fave....



 Really hope this is the start of a huge amount of Riho posts for as the title says she is a massive fave of mine and has been for close to five years. She's made the yearly faves list twice and also squeaked onto the 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' list at #20. If another list is done it wouldn't be until the latter half of 2021, think eight of the top ten would remain on that list. But the second half, positions 11 through 20, would have many new additions. However Riho isn't one who would drop out and actually would think she'd rise a few spots.


 Riho is my #1 all time gravure model but hasn't done anything in that vein for three years. These days she's mainly an actress but hasn't done much this year save for a film in March plus a January stage play. She's also a very in-demand model but hasn't had any new pics for any site or clothing line for most of the year. Seems Riho took an extended break from March on and this is her first post since January. This will her third one of the year and she still has a chance to qualify for the yearly faves list, last year was kind of slow for her too but from August to November she had seven posts.


 Every new thing for today is a mag spread but may hold one back for another post. Have a feeling we may be seeing more of Riho in the upcoming months as she has a film coming out this Autumn though no official date has been set. Sure she wasn't entirely idle these past five months as she many have been filming the movie but she has been quite busy the past five years so she probably needs a break now and again. Riho has done many big gravure pictorials but has only one regular photobook titled "So Long" that came out in July 2018. Had forgotten all about that PB and have never posted the pics from it yet, the title may refer to her saying sayonara to gravure pics.








 There was an event for the PB held on July 22, 2018 and the photo shoot took place in Australia.








 Riho is someone who attends many events but hasn't appeared at one for so many months, one reason was because of the health crisis but also another one could be because of her extended vacation. There were a few missed spreads from earlier this year but there was also a long stretch with none and bet the photo shoots had taken place a few months before they came out. This first small set is from the February issue of Health.




 Riho was the cover girl for the February 12th edition of Weekly Shonen.












 Don't know how I had overlooked these spreads as there could have been a post many months ago, this set is from the Marcy issue of Bis.












 Bit late in the year but if you need a calendar for the remaining five months....





 This will be the final set for today and will save one for her next post. Riho was the cover girl for all of today's spreads and the final batch are brand new pics from the August 21st edition of Friday. Following the pics is a new short Riho CM for Glico, it came out on August 4th and I'm amazed it's already had over four million views!
