Momoka Ishida: Her exalted thirteenth magazine spreads post....
Post below this one was talking about how much more difficult it will be this year to get many faves eligible for the yearly top twenty list. Criteria is rather easy to qualify, a women just needs to be 21+ in age and have six solo posts. And of all people Momoka with this post has just qualified as it's her sixth one and no gravure model has had more than she has since the beginning of 2020. Last year 32 were eligible for the list, have a feeling that number will be cut in half for 2021 so may have to make an adjustment or two such as only having five posts needed or just a top ten.
Back in February Momoka released her first photobook. It was a decent seller as it was in the top ten for sales for at least two weeks. But sales of books have really been suffering since last Summer and has the health crisis played that much of a factor in sales? You wouldn't think so but can't think of any other major reason, here's a few promo pics for the book.
Momoka is finally doing a few more activities outside of gravure modeling. She's in her first drama which is titled "Girl Gun Lady" that began two weeks ago. Do have the first two episodes but have no idea if the series will end up being subbed, hope so as it seems like a fun and action packed show. She plays the character of Charlotte, group pics are from an interview done with the TV-Life site.
Few recent Momoka IG pics but she's not much of a poster,
For the first time ever Momoka attended an event, few more this year and I can see her finishing in the top ten for faves as she's also become one of my top gravure models. The event took place on March 28th at the Budokan arena and was the 'K-1 World GP 2021 Japan' tournament, it was day two of four. Momoka was one who appeared in between rounds and also gave out a belt to a champion, not much of an event but hopefully it'll lead to more of them, here's a short video from it: K-1 event
Now on to a pair of mag spreads, been a bit slower with them as of late but think that means we'll be seeing a slew of them soon. Momoka is getting a bit more popular here but she's at a high level in Japan as she often is the cover girl for the magazines she appears in. She has that honor for this first alluring set that's from the April 2nd edition of Young Gangan.
No cover for the other spread that's from the May 2nd issue of WPB. That first pic led off the post but it was a 'clean version' and what a pic it is! Momoka has her own YT channel and most of the videos are quite enjoyable. Have one after the pics from March 23rd which is a bit long but worth skimming through as she changes her clothes a few times and looks so oki doki....
