Not satisfied with the recent rush of gravure idols' photo books? Even the ones like Minami Yamada's that are semi-nude?

Minamo burst into our lives in 2021 when she made the switch from a brief stint in gravure (where she worked as Shizuku Taiyo from 2019) to porn, and hasn't looked back since.
One of the most popular adult video performers working in the industry today, she is currently attacked to porn production company T-Powers continues to release JAV titles (we count something like twice as many releases in 2022 as her debut year).

A debut and a disappearance. This is a curious tale.
The beautiful gravure idol Shizuku Taiyo (太陽しずく), whose name literally means "drop sun" or "trickle sun," broke into the mainstream with her industry debut in autumn 2019.
She graced the covers of Young King magazine for the September 24 and October 28 editions, and a 15-page spread in the latter. But then the 19-year-old basically vanished.
While it is customary for models and idols to change their professional names (especially ahead of a porn debut) and, in the process, for previous social media channels to be deleted, why ...
