Kind of reminds me of Eripon in this one, very cute picture though. (Or a little bit of Maria.)

I couldn't agree with you more     I so wanted this as a book or photo set.

This is the set that I bought, the one with the white background. The other pair was sold out and I can see why. Those are really cute ones.

Waaaah ... I've been wondering if she'll get one soon. Yay!!! ...I don't own many photobooks (only Duu's and Riho's lol) but I'll get this one~

I will definitely have to order that photo book!!!  Looks like you can't order it just yet... the link provided is a dead page currently

https://www.elineupm.../product-64438/

 

Personally I'd love a photo book of her with many pages of her in the outfit below!! 

 

[hanawopun]

Ok, I discovered their preview link was somehow wrong...

However, if you just search for her via their search engine you'll find the product page:

1st PB DVD preview.

 

Cover.

 

Nice shot!

[AmaSusE]

Higher quality previews ...the cover is soo cute   







 

[darkvision]

It's about time she gets her first photobook. One of the finest in HP.

[AmaSusE]

I'm still surprised though. She's not super popular. I'm happy they are going to give her the opportunity regardless. A bit like the case with Sakura perhaps.

[mordhel]

I'm not surprised. She's the most marketable Kobushi member following Hamachan so it was only a matter of time before she put out her own photobook. I thought for sure it was going to be next year but the earlier the better I guess (not for my wallet though). 

[AmaSusE]

^ I used to think she was rising in popularity... I based this on watching glow sticks lol (I know, not the most accurate, but still one way to do this...). I came to the realization that I was mistaking some dark-blues (Minamina) and some darker pinks (still Hamachan though) for Rei's purple.... I did see some 2ch threads along the lines of "Why isn't Inoue-chan more popular? Look how cute she is~" as well. As much as it pains me, I accepted that people are still not too interested in her. ...which really is a shame. But I'm totally biased so my judgement doesn't count lol.

^Lol, I get that feeling all the time. I kind of wonder though, about how popular is Inoue Rei in Japan? I think she is at least somewhere between 1-3. I'm guessing Hamachan is the most popular since she already had a large following even before her debut.

I'm still surprised though. She's not super popular. I'm happy they are going to give her the opportunity regardless. A bit like the case with Sakura perhaps.

Riko from TF got a PB, it's not that surprising Rei got one after that.
As far as I know except for Fuku and Maria, Sakura sold more than the other current MM members? So who knows Rei might do better than expected. They still barely sell, these PBs compared to other groups so I just take them more as a push rather than "popular girls get it" these days. Haruna was more surprising to me, btw.

[Fall]

I know it's anecdotal, but she placed #4 in my most recent H!P ranking in mid-June, up 7 places from December.  Since then, she's also had Inoue no Uta, so it wouldn't surprise me if the agency has some increased merch sales backing the decision to give her some more fan exposure even outside of Kobushi.

[AmaSusE]

...better late than never but here are some previews for Reirei's PB

 

 

 

I know these gifs are probably meant to oggle her body but she looks so cute in them so I decided to post them anyway      

  



... as always, I love the faces she pulls. It really is a unique charm point of hers

Haven't found a link to the full Photobook making of yet but I'll make sure to post it here as soon as I find it

[hanawopun]

I just thought I'd share my favorite segment / outfit from Rei's Photo Album DVD.  It also includes her farewell. Enjoy.
