Iori Sagara: Her fourth.... 𝑯𝒐𝒑𝒆 𝒔𝒉𝒆'𝒔 𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒃𝒚 𝒂 𝒇𝒆𝒘 𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 .... post
It's been an odd year for Iori and am hoping she can end on a strong note. She's had nine posts to date which is a respectable figure(like hers!) but this is only her third in six months as she's just coming back from a semi longish holiday. Iori was in a stage play this July but that's been her only acting gig for the year but there are some signs of life from her. Last week her first digital book since early May was released plus she'll be the cover girl for an upcoming magazine so should be able to do at least one more post next month, have Iori's book from May that still has to be posted. Today's the 28th which means two more days in September but I always take the final day of a month off so the post for tomorrow will be it but as of now I have no clue on who the post will be for. Did average a post a day for this month but it became so much more difficult to do them the past two weeks.
For the fourth time did begin off one of her posts with Hope she's remembered by a few out there and sure she is as Iori is popular here but not as much as she once was. Think the problem was she had such a deluge of posts in 2024 and the first half of 2025, it was tough to keep up with all of her activities. Often when a woman has so many posts in a year you readers tend to get tired of her and that may have happened with Iori, now the opposite has happened with too few posts! But Iori has now had fifty solo posts since becoming a gravure model in June 2023 and think only two others have had as many posts in that stretch of time. Plus Iori had eleven while with Nogi which gives her a total of 61 so while it wouldn't happen for a while she does have a chance to hit that esteemed milestone of a hundred posts! At ten-twelve posts a year it would take until late 2029 to hit triple figures and by that time Iori would be 32 in age so will she still be doing gravure modeling for another three years?
I would love to see Iori end off 2026 on a strong note, that's the way she began the year off. If that happens there's a good chance for the fourth year in a row Iori would make the top ten on the yearly faves list and what a massive favorite she's become of mine over the last 38 months! I did like Iori while she was with Nogi but she never got that much exposure, thought when she graduated eight years ago there would never be another post for her. But what a career resurgence Iori's had, mainly due to gravure modeling but she's also acted in many stage plays, been on a few dramas and has opened a fan club. Soon I need to buckle down and start figuring out who the twenty women will be that will make the All Time Fave's list and that will be done next Spring. Would try to compile a list of thirty who have a chance and as time goes on the names will whittle down to twenty. Bring that up for Iori now stands an excellent chance of making the top twenty and she's practically come out of nowhere to be such a huge favorite of mine! Have no clue at the moment on where her position may be, there would probably be four ex-Nogi members on the list. That does sound like too many but from 2014-20 I was one of their biggest fans and it's a shame times like that are gone forever.....
Next month will have Iori's one 2026 digital book that hasn't been posted and if she has made her return would think there would be many more books and mag spreads in the horizon. November will see at least one post as on the 26th of that month she'll be celebrating her 29th birthday. There's not a huge amount of new things for today but will end off with a book that has 55 photos and those are all new for here. Plus have a few oddball things that haven't been seen in a while and perhaps those had never been posted before, such as these Nogi cards for September that go from 2015-17, Iori left Nogi in July 2018 and was the first second generation member to graduate.
Iori had so few photos at her IG page from May until late July so figured she was taking a breather but was in a July stage play. Below are the pictures she's uploaded to her page the past five weeks, the top two are for her brand new digital book.
Iori posts so many sizzling pictures from her photo shoots and have been including older ones in most women's posts. But she didn't begin her gravure career until June 2023 so there aren't too many of those older pics. Do have some below from 2023 which feature a mix of photos that have been seen and ones that hadn't been, when Iori popped onto the gravure scene during that year bet no one had realized what a tremendous figure she has and many of her photos have truly left me speechless at times....
Near the middle above Iori is with an ex-Nogi mate, she had a new photobook last month but wasn't able to do a post for her in September. There was no magazine spread to accompany today's digital book so will have this oldie from volume 17 of SPA Girl that came out in December 2023 for they're the magazine that published the book and it's one of Iori's first times as a cover girl.
We've hit the end of this semi-medium sized post but when Iori is the featured woman you know the post will be so terrific and cold shower inducing! The SPA! magazine released this digital book on April 24th and it has the title of "Spring, When Something Begins", it contains 55 scorching photos. After the pics is a short video from the photo shoot, Iori has such a fantastic YT site for videos but sadly hasn't uploaded any for about a year.
