^It mentions it has 160 pages! That explains the heavy weight.

A lot of the above pics have the same issue as a lot of the recent AKB PBs; slightly out of focus or bad lighting... I don't know, but somehow it doesn't look that HQ. Crappy print quality explains why you get a thick PB for relatively cheap, but I'd rather pay a bit more if the pics look better...

Aw well, let's hope for the best. Perhaps the actual book will look killer. At least Yuki herself won't be the problem.

The photographer of this PB is definitely Masa. C'mon 2-page spread for an ass-pic!


Extra pic is nice:


Summary: Huge quantity of candid shots, giving it a nice "going on a trip with Yukirin" feel. So most of the pics are 'landscape' view. Like what SW said, not the normal HQ photo shoot pics, like Yuki's 1st PB. Some blurry, I'll pretend it's a style.
Choice of cover still feels weird. And some of those 2-page pics are a waste, with her in the centre (hardly viewable).
Wish there were more pics of her on the beach.
Still. It's been a 2-3 year wait. And I love it... of course!

Kashiwagi explained the appeal of her photo book saying, “This photo book is packed with my ON and OFF moments. If you live with me, it would be like this.”

Win. 

I'm surprised at the ass shots, since her first PB was pretty boob-heavy. Not complaining though, haha.

Thanks for the review winner! So which pic is the actual cover; the onsen or the umbrella one?

[winner]

The onsen one I'd prefer the cute umbrella pic.

Some more easter eggs found. Removing the cover page, the PB cover/end pages are these. LOL, I prefer this to the onsen pic.



And that stupid long flap that binds on the bottom of PBs/CDs we normally throw away. Flip it over and you find this!
