    On the removal of the Jr Idol club

    This post actually made me all teary-eyed, couldn't have said it better.

    On the removal of the Jr Idol club

    Came as a shock to me when I launched my browser and got hit with the "you do not have permission to view this page" thing, was wondering if I had been banned or something, this is a pretty sad day for people who have been around for as long as I have, and for everyone else I would imagine...

    Rei Kuromiya 黒宮れい

    That definitely factors in as well, I recall a comment in the Nippon manju video saying "I read that she had participated in child pornography", I assume the commenter was possibly American as most of the people I've come across that project to that extreme are American, while gravure in most...

    Rei Kuromiya 黒宮れい

    While I haven't read the book and I'm not planning to, the times I've seen her talk about gravure in interviews and the one quote from the book I saw about gravure when it came out, the fans were never mentioned, all she said was that she just wasn't enjoying it and wanted to do something else...

    Ai Takanashi 高梨あい

    https://fantia.jp/fanclubs/473935 She opened a fantia account, says she's planning to post a lot of self-produced gravure different from what she's done so far once she has it fully running.

    Rei Kuromiya 黒宮れい

    You hit the nail on the head, and I would add to that, if you follow her on IG and see her stories, she's doing actual modeling occasionally, she has her own clothing line and just released her own contact lenses line as well, meanwhile, Anjyu, Asami and Ai Takanashi that are still doing gravure...

    Rei Kuromiya 黒宮れい

    For her money clearly wasn't the motivating factor, she wasn't happy during her gravure days and that's not something she's ever tried to hide, and she's much happier now doing something she actually enjoys, and to her (and to her fans as well I would imagine) that's much more important than how...

    The blurry picture in the description might be her, but the video, not a chance.

    Asami Kondou 近藤あさみ

    I'm sure others can elaborate a lot more on that I could, but for example, I know they (although I think not so much anymore) used to lie about their age, and many also didn't use their real name, the not being allowed to date is one they take very seriously though, for example, another girl...

    Asami Kondou 近藤あさみ

    Eh I don't know where this is came from, I follow her on twitter, and what I'm aware of is that she's had plenty of health issues over the past close to 2 years, whenever she's mentioned something regarding health for what I've seen, it had to do with that.

    Rei Kuromiya 黒宮れい

    What I find most interesting about her right now, is how in all her interviews she always makes clear that she's the happiest she's ever been and that all she's been through helped her be happy with herself, without requiring anything or anyone else to make it so, it's great to see how she's...

    Rei Kuromiya 黒宮れい

    There is literally zero irony here, a band of girls where 2 of the members are former gravure idols, one of them arguably the most famous and most popular that the business ever produced, has more men than women in the audience, the only surprise would have been if it was mostly women, the girls...

    Anju Kouzuki 香月杏珠

    She just posted in her sub twitter about 10 minutes ago how she "needs to start dieting again", I'd say she's probably along with Asami the only ones that still look healthy though, some other girls specially from that same generation look dangerously skinny, like Ai Takanashi, she's very proud...

    Anju Kouzuki 香月杏珠

    She uses filters on what she posts to her social media, pretty much every girl uses them on instagram and twitter.
