Sawai Miyuu @ Boon Visual

Sawai Miyuu appears in the online magazine S-Boon for the November 2004 issue. S-Boon is a mens' magazine, that can be accessed through a 1050 yen monthly subscription. With access, a person can download video clips of idols, as well as 20 high quality photoshoot images. Sawai Miyuu appears in here for a racy bikini-type shoot. Though this surprised many people, it actually isn't the first time Sawai Miyuu is featured in S-Boon. ^.^ She had another bikini photoshoot with them in June 2004.








Yea. ^.^;; I shelled out my credit card for this photoshoot. I saw the sample photo on Boon Visual's page and thought that it was so pretty. The photography and light emphasized her eyes and made her skin glow. And really? All 20 photos are VERY VERY nice. Some are very racey, and some just had the smiley and laughing Sawai Miyuu we all know. ( Actually, it reminded me of a Michelle Branch shoot for Maxim. ) But unfortunately, as much as I like this photoshoot, I'm pretty sure a lot of people over seas wouldn't be subscribing to it. ^.^;; Subscription is only for Japanese residence so I had to fake an addie to sign up for it. ( LOL Yes. They emailed me about it too! ) But I think the photos are very worth it. ;__; They're soOOOooOOoooo pretty.

Note: And those of you who are calling her a "skank" for this, please shove a boot up your ass.

I don't like the pictures too much. =/ I don't know. She looks good in them, but... the whole scantily clad thing doesn't appeal to me. It looks kinda naughty, in the sense that she's really innocent looking, but yet, wearing the revealing clothing. But, I think that's probably the point of the photoshoots for this site (referring to S-boon, I think it was), so it gets the job done. XD;;

The pictures of Miyuu show 2 different sides of her. We are used to the playful and carefree side that we see in PGSM and we see this side of her in the pictures where she is smiling and having fun. The pictures in which she is pensive and not smiling provide a striking contrast by showing us a mature side of Miyuu that we haven't really known before. And it's not just because of what she's wearing. She's worn similar outfits in Sabra's Nov 2003 issue and she still comes across as playful in those pictures. I think this was a great photoshoot for her. She maintains the playful and carefree persona that we've come to associate with her and which she has really excelled in, but also introduces a more mature side to her that tells us she's ready to try out other roles. And she looks gorgeous while doing it.

In these pics Sawai Miyuu is absolutly stunning. In her orange and blue outfit, her smile and eyes are very cute. You can tell she had fun! As for her black outfit she takes it too a new level in her career as a growing model. The best pics I ever saw of her. Anywhere! Sexy, alluring, and still maintains her self-respect, being as she's only 17.

Overall, I like the pictures. They're very tasteful swimsuit shots, and Miyuu looks quite lovely in them. However, the image portrayed seems to be more mature than her previous photo shoots. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but personally I like the image of a brightly smiling Miyuu the best.

Miyuu-chan is a very pretty girl. :) I don't think I'd pay (roughly) ten dollars to see her pictures. Yet, I paid for Ayaka's photobook and that was about the same sort of material. But when I received the photobook, I had the fun of receiving something slightly naughty in the mail from Japan. :)

On the pictures themselves, my first impression was that PGSM really didn't do Miyuu-san justice. She is a very confident girl, I'm relatively certain if I was getting my picture taken in these sorts of outfits, I'd die of embarrassment. :)

*grins* They weren't very work friendly. *laughs*

^o^ Anyways, my first thought when I saw the pictures was 'WOW'! I thought the photo shoot was really nice and the quality was great. Sawai Miyuu looks awesome in the photo shoot. It shows an elegant and mature side of her. I would definitely pay 1050 yen to see all 20 photos. Of course that's just crazy old me ^__^ All in all, it's an awesome photo shoot in my aspect.

Photo reviews are fun. Actually, this is the first one I've ever done for anyone concerning photos.... So here we go.... time for my review:

As always, Miyuu looks very pretty in the photos. Though, they look very similar to some of her past shoots and I would like to see some more variety with her photos for magazines- like maybe shoot in some odd location or something. I think I would pay to see the rest, since I consider myself to be a bit of a Miyuu fan and the pictures do look pretty nice with just the 5 I have seen.

The pictures are adorable! Miyuu is so beautiful. Picture 3 is my favorite (The one with her winking.) She looks like she's just what she is: A sweet pretty young girl. I can't believe that people are getting so upset about these innocent pictures. I would have no problem showing these pictures to anyone, even my mother. Nice work Miyuu!

I think that these pictures are pretty and sexy in a subtle way. Miyuu seems more mature than in her previous bikini photos. She proved that she isn't only a extremely cute girl, but also a hot young woman. She really have a beautiful body. It's very delicate and slim in spite of her kawaii chubby face.

We can't blame her or any other PGSM actresses for posing for this kind of photos. If someone is a real fan of Sailor Moon, then it's going to remember that in the Sailor Moon Artbooks there are a lot of images in which Usagi and the others appear in bikini.

Sawai Miyuu, looking lovelier than ever. It's needless to say that this girl has grown into something wonderful in the run of the past year. As I took my first look at the pictures, I couldn't help but wonder. Sawai's gaze truly captivates the viewer. In spite of being over a year younger than me, she looks, in a way, much more mature.

But to pay 1050 yen to see the rest of the photo shoot? This is probably something only a hard-core Miyuu fan would do. As lovely as she is, I personally wouldn't be ready to put my money into it. For less money, it is very likely that I would. But in this case, no.
