Takano Mao First Photobook: Mao no Koto,

A smile so defenseless and straightforward, and an allure that smolders quietly. The 1st photo book of Mao Takano, "the most alluring 22-year-old in Japan right now," is finally on sale! Within just a few months of her debut she captured the covers of one magazine after another. Her snow-white skin and eye-catching dynamite body, together with a bewitching gaze and posing beyond her 22 years, have an addictive quality you cannot forget once you have seen it. Her overwhelming expressiveness has even made industry insiders groan, and since right after her debut she has earned high praise as "an extraordinary talent." The location chosen for this work was Mui Ne, a hidden resort quietly nestled in southern Vietnam. In this place where a vast desert and a crystal-clear coastline coexist, she placed herself in an environment where even the passing time feels unhurried and faced herself carefully. In this work she also boldly takes on daring expressions she had kept sealed in past shoots. T-back shots that generously release the hip line she polished for the shoot, lingerie shots that seem to wear temptation itself, and nude shots that approach her bare contours stripped of anything unnecessary. Cuts you can meet only in this photo book are scattered throughout the pages. A finest masterpiece condensing her "now," where you meet a new Mao each time you turn the page. [Comment from Mao Takano] I have decided to release my 1st photo book! Being able to give shape to a photo book, which had long been my dream, is thanks to all of you who always support me. Thank you so much. At this time's location, amid the great nature and exotic streetscapes of Mui Ne in Vietnam, I packed in plenty of the me of now. It has become a special work that captured even the local atmosphere in the photos, such as the beautiful sunrise and twilight scenery. Precisely because it is my first photo book, I think it became a book where you can feel various "Mao Takano" - a natural Mao, a grown-up Mao, and a cute Mao. There are many favorite cuts, so I would be happy if you pick it up. Find your very own favorite Mao! Thank you.
