I've often wondered that. Why ISN'T she more popular. I find her quite stunning, and she's a good actress too.

Several years ago I bought Ryoko chan's photobook. It's about time to share some of the pics from the book if I can scan them correctly without tearing the pages.

Here's the cover of the book to start it off:

23 ans Photobook, probably not complete, only 76 pics I think

Thanks for those photos. There are quite a few I don't have yet.
However I do not see any from the photo book. I will post some more photo book scans as time permits. The photobook includes baby pictures, grade school and high school pictures.

BTW I did not know she put out another photobook that you call 23 ans.
I suppose that means 23 years old. Where is that book for sale?
I'd like to buy it.

230+ pages, so that should be complete I guess.

Also some more pics from another photobook and some magazine scans. There are some duplicates, and most of them are not high-res.

23 ans is printed on the top 2 scans I have in my first post in this thread
Also listed in wikipedia for Japanese
http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%9B%BD%E4%BB%B2%E6%B6%BC%E5%AD%90

If you scroll down to the bottom, there are links to Ryoko-chan's official site and a video blog too.

I think I saw that it's been sold out on a site earlier... but can't remember where now.
Ah, lucky, it's still available @ amazon japan
On top right, you can click to read the page in English. Makes ordering a lot easier.

Ralph, I thought I read that you have the 2005 calendar earlier in this thread, would you be able to repost the pics of that calendar please? Most of the pics in this thread are dead.

OK, that's all I have for now.

This is also available for download at the chinese forum.
I can reupload it if needed.

I do have the calendar. I will try to photograph the pictures and post them as soon as I have time. I usually have trouble photographing anything that big as I get the stupid flash highlight. But I'll try to do it in natural daylight outside.

Thanks. It does look complete. I'll start posting some of the pics for folks to look at soon.

As for the other photobook, I prefere buying it so I can scan in at high res for my own enjoyment. Uploaded scans tend to be too low res and loose so much of the colors and detail.

I also have the Kuninaka promo DVD that I see advertised on Amazon. I thought it was out of print. That is such a great promo I watch it periodically... you can get an idea of how Ryoko chan is in real life and how she intereacts with the production crew.

Yes I agree with the mediocre quality of some scans. Poor people like me will just have to make do with what's online though.

The DVD sounds great! I will have to watch it then. ^^

Also found some clips/CMs here:

Here's my first experiment with photographing something so big and trying to fit it to monitor size without loosing too much quality. Still having some problems with getting the picture straight and the colors.
As I get better I will replace this:

EDIT: this is the second version. Colors are much better and image is sharper. If you want to save it get it from the source:
