Nashiko Momotsuki: Her breathtaking and beyond perfect "Mikan" photobook scans....

That heading is no exaggeration as this may have become my #1 photobook ever, sure many of her huge fan base are nodding their heads in agreement!!!! Could have done this post two months ago but thought I'd wait for Nashiko's 26th birthday which took place on November 8th. But then decided it would be a better idea to hold off three more weeks as a 'Nao Year' begins on December 1st or today. When I do yearly stats posts they go from December 1st to November 30th. So wanted to wait and see if this ended up being the most popular post for 2022 and perhaps set a record for views in a year. Not positive of amount the number as I didn't check before writing this up but am positive that the post for the "Love Rush" photobook received more views than any post in a year. Think it's around 5,400 views and if any woman can break the record it's Nashiko, if I remember will go to check out that record and if I'm wrong will come back with the correct figure but no figure can top the below pic!!!!

EDIT: Checked and was I way off base with saying 5,400. Miru's first PB "Love Rush" had 7.385 views in it's first year which may be too high to top.

Slowish period for Nashiko as she hasn't had a post since October and there wasn't enough things for a November 8th birthday post. But there will be a post in a little over two weeks as I'm thinking she'll finish third on this year's faves list. Do have one new mag spread though not much else but do have some outtake pics from this photobook that have never been seen before. This PB was released on November 11, 2019 which was three days after her 25th birthday. It was a solid seller as it was in the top ten for sales for at least three weeks and had two reprintings but books these days sell so fewer than they did from 2015-19. The title "Mikan" means Unfinished and is Nashiko's first ever book, hopefully not her last. The photo shoot took place on the island of Ishigaki which isn't too far from Okinawa, at 122 pics it's a huge book and no need to tell you how flawless these pics are....
