Nashiko Momotsuki: 'Young King Bull' digital book #3 plus a few other goodies....

 


 Not going to do anything special for I didn't realize it until two minutes ago.... well, I had known about it but once again a detail slipped my mind. Two days from now is August 30th, that's the seventh anniversary of Nashiko's first ever post here and as the adage goes.... the rest is history! How's this for an average, August 2018 was 84 months ago and this is her.... 84th post(!) so even if you flunked first grade math sure you can figure out how many posts a month she's averaged! One a month may not seem like many but no one else can come close to that pace or at least no one from the past seven years. And these posts are not slowing down at all even though in ten weeks Nashiko will be celebrating her 30th birthday and she looks just as terrific as always!

 Almost always take the final day of the month off but unsure about August leading into September. Seeing as how the first is a holiday didn't want to do any blogging so perhaps do a post on the final day of August instead? Or I could always write up some posts in advance and schedule them to be posted on the 1st but not sure if I will have the time. No big deal but do know what the final post for August will be and it'll be a super duper one, so if you don't hear from me for a day or two you'll know why but if that happens there's 9,000 other posts for you to check out!!!!

                                          

 I want this post to be a simple one as there are others that need some work but will it end up being a quick one? Know there will be a digital book to end the post(not quite) and two magazine scans, one old and the other a semi-oldie. After writing up this section will take a breather to see what else there is for this post and hopefully have some nuggets I had forgotten about. So did say Nashiko is now up to 84 posts which is the most for a gravure model, really thought someone else was gong to pass her but if that happens it wouldn't be until 2027 at the earliest. This makes it nine posts for 2025 and Nashiko has set a record for being eligible for the yearly faves list the most times which is now eight. Seeing as how she's not slowing down at all she could easily hit ten years or above, Nashiko looks just as sweltering at almost thirty in age as she did when she was younger than 25 so wonder if she has thought about doing gravure modeling until she's 35 or so in age?



 Wanted this to be a simple post and it will be with just four sections but with about eighty photos! I need breathers too though wouldn't call this a rest as I want to start on a possible four posts for the final day of the month. First off are these recent pics from her IG page, not a huge amount as her last post was dine on August 10th. When Nashiko first came to my attention back in 2018 she was mainly a cosplayer and a very popular one too, she was making the transformation then into being a gravure model. There's no cosplaying photos today but she had been having many of them at her IG page up until this month. You will also see Nashiko wearing glasses in at least four pics and that's not too common for actresses, models and J-Pop Idols. But a month ago Nashiko said she's much ore comfortable these days wearing them in public though not at huge events. The bottom two pics are from a recent Bis magazine photo shoot, she's been an on/off model for them since 2020. But look who else is in the two pics and it's my top gravure model of all time, the pair had never been in a photo together until now! That's Nene Shida and where has she disappeared to? No one has had more posts than her since December 2020 but she's now gone four months without one and that's never happened before! Do have a somewhat newish magazine spread for her but that's the only thing in four months and how we've(me!) have really been missing her....














 Have two new magazine spreads but will hold in to one for her next post. So will have one brand new one and this not-too-dated set from the May 26th issue of WPB, to often we all forget about some older spreads which were truly fabulous and I try to include some of them here and there.















 Usually end off with a digital book if there is one but let me reverse that for today as the magazine spread to end the post is a bit better than the book. As the title says this is Nashiko's third book for the Young King Bull magazine, all came out last year and the date of this book's release was on July 4th. With only 35 photos this is a smallish set which is why I didn't end the post with it. In the years 2021-23 Nashiko only had a total of five digital books but made up for that as she had ten last year(!) and about five to date for 2025. I tend to post her books many months after they come out so will have a few for this year coming up soon.




































 For the finale have one more set of pics from Young King Bull and this stupendous spread is from volume 17 or their September edition. Nashiko was the cover girl for their first issue and bet this is at least her fourth time since, this magazine is the best of them all and wish it came out monthly. This spread is promoting a new book that came out so that's another you'll be seeing soon and check out the bottom page. It's a calendar for August and September, too late for this month but for the upcoming one it would look terrific for your computer's desktop! After the pics check out a video for the spread's photo shoot and I have run out of adjectives for Nashiko's alluringness which is a kind of unique vibe when compared to other gravure models.
