…glad to be of service. Let’s add her to the wait and see list. I had this DVD since late december and it took me a month to sit down and do the review.

That says something all bu itself doesn’t it?

She certainly has the goods to have a reasonably successful big-bust Idol career, but I’m hanging on to my money for now.

As you say, Bali is kind of far from Tokyo so that adds to the cost. But it is my considered opinion that they weren’t at a recognizable (to me) hotel in Bali.

Geez – “Sweet Prune” has to be one of the worst ever titles for an idol video. Can you imagine two guys standing in a Tokyo street – Look, there she goes, it is the Prune girl….

I saw some of Yuka’s pics at photo events (before she was even picked up for doing DVDs, I guess) so I knew how she looked without cover retouching. Actually, her first IV I saw “Sweet Prune” has a more… corresponding cover, and the fun thing is that it is pretty much a “Pure Smile” release, same main menu with video playing on the background with the same font and options displayed, profile pic, image slides, etc

But I guess the “Pure Smile” brand is just used with top tier idols. Sadly, Yuka is not, at least for now. I like her because she’s not the kind of girl one would expect tp see modeling but she does – that’s one of he charms about gravure, never underestimate the power of jumbo sized boobs).

I dunno if E-net has also a second tier line, but sending her to Bali is surprising (when some big name idols are going to Hokkaido or Okinawa instead). Her next video is one with all the girls from her agency, so maybe her office is financing her…
