Shiori Ikemoto Unveils Daring New Photobook Title!
Dive into ‘Honto no Shiori.’ – A Mature Glimpse into the Idol’s True Self, with Exclusive Pre-Release Shots and Fan Events Announced.
Gravure idol and “Teratera” member Shiori Ikemoto is set to release her highly anticipated second photobook, titled ‘Honto no Shiori.’ (meaning “True Shiori.”), on March 26, 2026. This collection promises to reveal a more mature and intimate side of the idol, captured against the picturesque backdrop of Pattaya, Thailand.
The photobook, published by One Publishing Co., Ltd. and priced at 3,960 yen (tax included), showcases Ikemoto’s evolution over the past two years since her debut photobook. Known in the gravure world as a “mini-gravure” sensation—a term describing her petite yet glamorous physique—this new work pushes boundaries by featuring numerous “gravure sexy cuts,” marking a bold departure into more revealing territory. It’s a challenge that, according to the creators, captures the “true Shiori.”
Shiori Ikemoto herself shared her thoughts on the project: “The title ‘Honto no Shiori.’ was chosen because the photobook is filled with my most natural expressions and relaxed self. It truly embodies what ‘the real Shiori’ is all about. My first photobook was released when I was 20, and now at 23, this one is packed with the authentic me right now. We even shot in the very room I stayed in Pattaya, so you might even spot the ‘true Shiori’ among my personal belongings!” Her candid remarks offer a peek into the genuine atmosphere of the shoot.
To celebrate the release, two special events are scheduled in Tokyo, offering fans exclusive benefits and a chance to meet the idol.
