The end-of-year photo book rush just got a bit busier with the debut release from Anri Gento (源藤アンリ).
While not particularly well known as a model or celebrity, Gento has notched up a fair number of television appearances recently. It’s perhaps a little surprising that such a relative newbie would land her own photo book publishing deal with Shogakukan, though she has seized the opportunity with aplomb.
A guaranteed way to generate headlines and online interest is to take things a step further. Anri has stepped up to the challenge swimmingly by taking off her clothes.
Coming out December 7, “ANRI” is not a fully nude photo book, let’s be clear, but Anri is completely naked in at least one shot and shows off her attractive back and butt, and the 25-year-old Hokkaido native shows off some side boob in another photo.
In a competitive marketplace, we wonder if Anri has got what it takes to last the long haul, but she’s certainly making a quick splash early on.
