Toray swimsuit girl

Toray swimsuit girl
TORAY

The 2009 swimsuit campaign girl for textile company Toray is high school student and model Tomoe Genzaki, 17. Genzaki, who is 175 cm tall and a model for fashion magazine JJ, said, “I failed in the audition last year. That was very mortifying, so I’m happy today.” Genzaki will work on ad campaigns for Toray’s swimsuit from now on. Past winners of the competition include popular actresses such as Norika Fujiwara and Rei Kikukawa.

    I prefer the winner of the lingerie modeling contract... hahaha. Anyway, this girl is cute, and pretty damn tall to boot, but she's not drop dead gorgeous by any means. Gosh... I sound like I'm criticizing! Anyway, I think it's the 'jewelry' that's a turn off.

    Now that, in my way of looking at women, is a darn good looking young woman. Enough for me to sort of close my eyes & wonder what it would be like to actually see her in real live.

    Isnt there an article in here about perverted old men and underage girls blackmailing them after tehy pay them for sex. Very ironic that JapanToday would post not only a picture but a "HUGE PICTURE" of an underage girl girl for these same men to galk at. VEry nice picture indeed but c'mon guys this girl is young as hell!

    ALHQQ - To enjoy eye candy is very different from propositioning and commiting what is without a doubt a hideous crime. Agree 17 is south of what is agreed as legally and morally appropriate, but your first part of the second sentence captures it "Very nice pciture indeed..."

    swimsuit campaign girl for a textile company? This whole country revolves around bikinis. Poor excuse guys or boys, and other motives are obvious. Welcome to Kawaii land.

    You don't even need actual talent in this country. What are we teaching these kids?

    If you're cute you can just make animal noises your whole life and people will "love" you.

    If your ugly, get to work. Poor girl will never have a brain, and always just be some sweating handed man's fantasy.

    you guys are aware of the fact that she's only 17 right?

    "Is it just me, or does she look cold?"

    It's just you.

    I'll bet she looks a lot better in this Toray suit than in that Speedo all the Olympic swimmers are wearing.

    "she's only 17"

    She's going to be 18 in 22 more days. And in just two more years she'll be able to drink and smoke ( legally ) and vote for Jiminto!

    Yes, it's a disgrace, isn't it? While we have a 12 year old and her bust stats in the other news item, here, we're lumbered with someone as old as 17. Standards are slipping.

    Typical Shibuya looking girl; hair color and all. They ought to pick someone that doesn't fit that mold next time. The nail thng is too much. She definitely doesn't look 17 but older.

    17, woah, she's a little too old, don'tcha think? and my god, she really needs to lose some weight. japanese standards are really slipping!

    Golly I did not realize she was that young. Mind you if this young girl keeps herself in good shape in her 40s she will stll be a lovely looking young woman

    I feel a bit ashamed in commenting on her beauty earlier on. Wish she was around 21 or such & in honesty I feel a good looking model is the same if not better with proper clothing rather then bathing suits or such.

    I forgot to mention she also has a nice bellybutton.

    Bikini contests for 17 year old high school girls ??? A new low for Japan, the undisputed king of kiddie porn, enjo kosai, and male chauvenist attitudes... The editors of Japantoday should be ashamed of this large scale photo and photo !

    Um Sarge, She's 17 ! Is that even considered an adult by Japan's fluctuating morals ?

    Sarge

    barfly - "She's 17"

    Yeah, she is! For a couple more weeks, anyway..."

    "Is that even considered an adult"

    In Japan, people legally become adults at age 21, though many females, including the lovely Tomoe here, are fully developed physically by around age 15 or even younger. She's not having sex, for cryin' out loud, she's just showing off her beautiful body. Sheesh!

    Interesting theory.

    I will have to counter your vote.

    rurika - Well, we've had eight more pictures of the day since this one and so far no cute guys in speedos. I guess you'll have to submit your own photo if you want to see that.
