Ever seen This Photo?

[ayufan-]

I find this photo on internet, from the young Ayu. I've never seen it before, and you? Does someone know more about this photo, like for what it was taken etc.

Spoiler:

[AngelSenshi]

It's probably just from some of her early idol modelling days; I'm not too sure of where exactly its from though.

[panda♥]

i love how natural she looked in her modeling days. she looks the same now, just a little bit older.

[Delirium-Zer0]

It's definitely one of her magazine shoots... I seem to remember it's from an issue of Up To Boy? Not sure though.

I'll look for it when I get home tonight and try & place it for you.

[ayufan-]

Thank you all for telling. ^ok i am curious.
@Panda - yeah she looks very like the ayu now, only a bit younger

[asmAyumi1992]

Kawaii~~♥

[AyuWorld]

so young and innocent *O*,almost cant believe it of who she is now ^^

[channy]

I think such photos are made for old horny japanese men. I hate how most of her old bikini photoshots reveal her crotch in a softcore porn way, in my opinion! But this is how young japanese girl try to get into business; Ayu's is by far not the only one who started her career with such photo magazines...

And evidently, its the same reason why she wanted to get out of it and do something difference; she wanted a place of her own where she worked hard for something; she really didn't like those modelling days, I guess she just didn't like just being seen and not heard.

Then again, loads of people go and do that stuff with no problems, and because they want to. Ayaka Komatsu had quite a few great acting roles, but she focuses mostly on bikini and underwear modelling.

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 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).

They have DORMS? lol Interesting.


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

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

[AngelSenshi]

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

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

[Yuukiru Imai]

oh my... :O

[Yoake]

she is so adorable *.*

[Kingdom]

That's a gross picture, IMO.

Agreed. As ShiSeido said, it's for pervy old men, who I think really wanna look at young, and I mean young girls...

exactly !

ayu looks cute however there is nothing artistic about this picture .... the angle is just ...wrong

[love in music]

She has such an adorable smile. Even though back then her teeth weren't perfect like they are now she still looks so cute.
