They have appeared on the cover of FRIDAY three times in a single year and recorded the No. 1 sales in the magazine’s digital photobook and video sales. The two, who have also become a major topic on social media and stirred up the gravure world, are taking on further expression in this photobook.

The location for this work is Phu Quoc Island, one of Vietnam’s largest resort destinations. On the island known as the ‘last frontier,’ they let both body and mind go free. The shoot captures to the fullest their glamorous T-back lingerie looks and carefree playfulness in an open-air pool. Their overwhelming posing and expressive power are possible precisely because they are real sisters.

For this work, they took on their boldest cuts yet, ones they have never shown in previous shoots. They reveal seductive nude-style shots and the beautifully sculpted backsides they perfected thoroughly for this photobook. The EriMari sisters themselves exchanged ideas and, through repeated trial and error with the staff, pursued a world that only real sisters can express. Their even more polished beautiful bodies and mature sensuality, exotic features, outstanding proportions, and the singular appeal created by their sisterly bond make this a supreme, permanent-edition photobook you will want to open again and again.

A deluxe edition with an extensive making-of DVD is also scheduled for release on Wednesday, April 22.

In the FRIDAY issue on sale Thursday, January 29, they will boldly unveil advance cuts from the photobook on the cover and in the opening feature, accompanied by a making-of video. Do not miss it.

Comments from the EriMari Sisters

After about a year of activities following our return for the first time in six years, the release of the first photobook we had been aiming for has finally been decided. We are able to put out a photobook as sisters thanks to everyone who has supported us without changing all this time. Thank you so much!

From choosing the outfits to every expression and detail of the atmosphere, we paid close attention to everything and created it while thinking a lot about how we could make everyone who sees it happy. We think it is filled to the fullest with EriMari’s unique ‘cute and sexy’ style.

We were a little nervous about the killer shots, which were a first challenge for us, but we were able to shoot with a very open feeling. We would be happy if you can feel the world that only we sisters can express, as well as our growth.
