Cute :)

Is that why she got out of it?

I thought she said got out because she couldn't be a model with her stature.

I'm sure she wouldn't like being an idol though anyway...but yeah.

She looks very natural but too vulgar. i think that was during her gravure modeling days.

She got out of SOS Modeling Agency because of that, yes. But they just moved her to Sun Music, which is where she was for the bulk of her aidoru career. They were trying to make her an idol actress, doing the gravure stuff was just par for the course. She left because she hated it. She waited until her mom was in the area so she'd have a place to live though (she was living in the aidoru company's dorms up until them, and would have had nowhere to live if she quit any earlier).

exactly !

ayu looks cute however there is nothing artistic about this picture .... the angle is just ...wrong :no

Ayu did look so cute in that picture, though. It looks like something from a photobook in her younger days.

Yep, it's a cute picture anyway; she's really adorable!

Speaking of Ayaka Komatsu though, I love that picture in your signature! :)

Ayu was a natural beauty back then, but I hate those kind of vulgar shoots made for perverts in Japan haha. They could photograph Ayu in normal settings too and it'd still be beautiful too ^^

Never seen this photo before. She looks really young and sweet there.

They have DORMS? lol Interesting.


I wish she still smiled like that in mag shoots...she does in the off shots sometimes...but yeah.
