Nashiko Momotsuki: Dazzling new EX-Taishu spread plus a few other goodies....
The 'Nao Year' runs from December 1st until November 30th, that's the time period to get the six posts needed to qualify for the yearly faves list. It's only March yet this is already Nashiko's sixth post and she's the second to hit that mark. However the other gal was last year's winner and still am up in the air whether to make them eligible for the list, really could go either way. Last year Nashiko was in the ninth position and could see her moving up a few spots. But just a few spots for as much as I like Nashiko, who is my #1 gravure model, don't know if she really has what it takes to be a number one for a year.
Nashiko remains a huge fave of you viewers as these days almost all of her posts hit the top ten for most views in a month and her last post has been on the list for a few weeks. Not a huge amount of new activities, mainly just that new mag spread but have a few other tidbits, some are older pics which had never been posted before. Not as much cosplaying for Nashiko as of late but kind of getting the feeling from her IG posts that's she's itching to get back into it.
Nashiko does post so many pics on her Instagram page and these are all from the beginning of the month. Bottom ones are from March 14th and White Day which is a minor holiday in Japan that takes place exactly a month after Valentine's Day.
No event pics once again but Nashiko is in a short film that played at the 'Tokyo International Film Festival'. That's taking place this month but it's usually held in October, last year's had to be cancelled due to the virus. The red carpet pics for their screenings are always superb so it's a shame she didn't have the chance to take a stroll. Nashiko's first posts were in mid 2018 and that's when she started to concentrate on her gravure career. Have all of her mag spreads from 2018 but there were a pair that had been missed and why not have them now? This set is her first mag spread ever which is from Young Magazine #50 from December 2017, she would have been 22 in age at the time.
One last missed spread and don't think there's any more. Nashiko's sets are large these days but not back when she was just starting out, another mini one from Young Magazine #10 for 2018.
That set did feature some cosplaying. These are outtake pics from her....
.... dazzling spread mentioned in the title. This is the final set to this smallish post and it's from the April issue of EX-Taishu. Nashiko is once again a cover girl and last year she had the seventh most mag covers of any woman in Japan. After the pics have a new promo video for the Bis magazine though there were no recent pics at their site, her costar Emiri is a member of the =LOVE J-Pop group.
