Ikuta Erina announced at today's Morning Musume concert that she will be releasing her first photobook! The concert was in her hometown and she announced her announcement yesterday on her blog, which made many fans think she was going to announce her graduation.  Ikuta will release her photobook Erina on the 22th of October.  There will be bikini shots, shots of her at a golf course and many more! The photobook will be in A4 format and have 80 pages! Here are the preview images released: Congratulations to Eripon! 

Ikuta Erina will release her second solo E-hello somewhere is October! The E-hello will be called: It's a Lovely day The dvd is listed here: Click The preview for this dvd: I'm really happy for Erina. She has been fighting so hard, I think this will be great. Ofcourse, as an Eripon fan, I hope this will lead to a Photobook, although I don't think it will. Anyway this is a great way for Eripon fans to enjoy their idol more!

Due to Ogawa Saki's sudden Graduation this weekend, Ikuta Erina will replace her on Oha Suta. I really hate to see Saki go, but this is a great oppertunity to get to know Eripon better. I have to say that I'm liking Erina more and more. She was my favorite in the auditions, but I was a bit disappointed by her first photo set. Lately she has been drying up infront of the camera and now she is just a beauty. She is really becoming a great idol. I really loved her solo on the last Hello project tour (it was ganbarre nakutemo enende right?). Yep Eripon is really becoming one of my favorite Momusu. She and Kanon are my current favorite momusu's. I really hope Eripon will do her best on Oha Suta and become an even beter preformer.
