Ruka Kitano: Another pair of ultra glittering digital books....

 


 Nine days ago did another post similar to this one where I had a pair of Ruka's medium sized digital books but there were a few good reasons for coming back so soon with another pair. One is that this will be the final post in November for any woman making this year's faves list, try to make those list posts large so hold back any recent magazine spreads, event or modeling pics and whatever else for those list posts. Another is that I would like to have all of Ruka's 2024 digital books posted by the end of the year though who knows if she'll have any coming out next month? Wish she had a Ja.wiki page to accurately count how many books she's had this year though guess I could go back and count them in her posts. After the two for today have one more book that came out two weeks ago and there may not be any books in December for a fabulous reason.


 Which is that yesterday it was announced that Ruka's second regular photobook would be coming out on December 22nd and what took so long?!!!! The second and third pics above are from that first book and she truly left so little to our imagination which did shock me but how can one complain! The 2026 'Nao Year' begins on December 1st so she'll have a nice beginning to the year as there will be a post for that newish digital book plus the post for whatever position Ruka ends up at for the fave's list. In that post will have more details about the book and that release date is three days before Christmas, I've seen books come out on that date before and have thought wouldn't a week earlier be better to increase sales so a parent(!!!!) could have the book as a stocking stuffer for their teen son(or Nao!)! Ruka ended up this 'Nao Year' with fourteen posts, the woman below this had eleven posts so between them that's 25 posts. Bring that up for it was such a pleasant surprise as both were under the radar favorites of mine for so long and didn't expect to have any posts for them this year!


 In all honesty in a way I kind of prefer the old Ruka and that's her above from 2020 when she was 21 in age, she turned 26 this year on May 25th. Once again have a pair of digital books that had no magazine spreads to promote them, that was rare before 2025 but has become quite common recently. Do have a pair of newish spreads but both are a bit small though there should be some coming out soon for Ruka's second photobook. If I had to guess would say she's had 25 digital books this year which could be a record, the first today was released by the Bubka magazine on October 7th and has 68 photos.





































































 On to Ruka's second book which was released by the SPA! magazine on October 24th. This set is smaller than the above set as it contains only 44 pics but to me think Ruka looks better than in those above photos, especially in the first group of pics. She does have a lack of videos for her photo shoots in YT as there are none for either of today's books. But there is a new video from Dragon Age and Ruka will be in their next issue, the video is after the pics and I highly recommend viewing it as videos like this are so rare from Ruka....
