AKB48's Omori Maho to release her first photo book! Lingerie and hot spring bathing shots revealed in advance

Maho Omori, who is active as a member of AKB48 and also appears in dramas, variety shows, modeling and gravure, will be releasing her first-ever photo book on December 5th, her memorable 25th birthday.

A special cut was released in advance of the release.

The photo shoot took place on Niijima and Shikinejima in the Izu Islands. The photobook is full of all the charms of Omori, who has grown into a woman, including her innocent smile and expressions full of adult sexiness, shown on remote islands with a sense of openness, clear blue seas and white sand beaches, and a vast expanse of nature.

In preparation for the shoot, she went on a stoic quest to build her body through dieting and training. In addition to her dazzling swimsuit on the beach, the photo also includes sexy sheer lingerie that accentuates her toned hips, and hot spring bathing shots that give a glimpse of her soft, beautiful bust. She also takes on a daring “bunny bra,” in which she only covers the top of her bust with a stuffed rabbit, making this an ambitious work that shows off Omori Maho’s “greatest exposure to date” that she has ever shown in any of her previous gravure shoots.

To commemorate the release of the book, a pre-release event will be held in Tokyo on November 4th, and a book signing event with the author himself will be held in Tokyo on December 7th and in Osaka on January 13th, 2025.

■ Comment from Maho Omori
I’ve done a few gravure shoots so far, and I’ve been thankfully told by my fans that they wanted to see a photo book of Maho-chan, but I thought it was a far-off dream for me. So when I heard about this project, I was really surprised!! During the shoot, the staff created a natural atmosphere, so I was able to be myself. I discovered habits that I hadn’t even noticed, and I think every page is overflowing with the most natural version of myself I’ve ever been. For this photo book, I gave up my favorite alcohol, and didn’t eat bread or pasta!!! I went to a beauty salon for the first time in my life, and also did some buttock training!! I’m confident that I’ve created a book that’s just for me, filled with the current Maho Omori, so I’d be happy if this work reaches as many people as possible! Everyone, please take a look!!
