TOKYO (TR) – Actress, model, and gravure idol Rino Oshima is set to release her highly anticipated first photobook later this year, featuring daring swimsuit shots that push the “absolute limit,” reports Nikkan Sports (Sep. 10).
The 25-year-old “Miss Magazine 2021” alum traveled to the sun-drenched beaches of Okinawa and her retro hometown of Kiryu City, Gunma Prefecture, for the shoot. Advance teaser shots published on Wednesday reveal Oshima flashing plenty of skin on the beach in a tiny blue string bikini.
Other sensational looks include a daring black high-cut outfit that boldly exposes her bare back and hips, as well as a brown bikini that shows off her cleavage to the absolute limit.
“Realized my dream”
Publisher Kodansha promises the book, set for release on November 4, perfectly captures both the “youthful freshness and mature allure” of a 25-year-old’s summer.
“Thanks to everyone, I have finally realized my dream of releasing a print photo book, a goal I have held for five years,” Oshima said. “I would be happy if you could feel the real me, which can only be shown at this very moment, along with the sparkling sea, sunsets, and majestic nature of Okinawa.”
The gravure star also included shots from her hometown to show her gratitude. The Kiryu City scenes trace her roots, featuring a favorite local cafe and an amusement park she frequented as a child.
“It’s a book packed with five years of my feelings and who I am today. Please enjoy it!” she added.
To celebrate the release, Oshima will host a special fan event on November 8 at Tsutaya Books in Roppongi, Tokyo.
Many talents
Oshima began her entertainment career while still in high school, starring in local films and dramas before making her big splash by winning the Jury Special Prize at Miss Magazine 2021.
The petite 153-centimeter beauty is a woman of many talents, working as a television reporter for TBS’s “Osama no Brunch,” serving as the first-ever “Kiryu City Charm Ambassador,” and even competing in world championships for kimono fitting.
