The first “Session C” episode has finally become a book!

My heart’s pounding, I’m so happy.

I am really nervous, but I’d like to start reading from now. I’m excited, excited and jittery.

It’s the first page.

This is from the early days, when I arrived in Nice and went to a place called “I Love Nice.”

At that time I had this feeling of elation that I had come to Nice.

This is a cut I love, I want you to see it soon.

I can’t show it yet though.

In this photobook I am eating my favorite ice cream flavor.

Ah, it’s the incense-cut one.

Somehow when I see the incense cut, I get this nostalgic feeling.

I really like this part too, but it’s a bit awkward that I can’t say the page number.

Wow, amazing.

Seriously.

It really kind of doesn’t feel like me.

Yeah.

This time, this book

is in a documentary style, or rather, the photos are laid out in the order they were taken,

so I hope you can also enjoy how I gradually become more like my true self.

Wow, I want you to see this photo soon, it’s the one inside the boat.

Honestly,

the photos are so beautiful, before even talking about me, the photos themselves are just so beautiful

that I am moved, I kind of feel like I’m going to cry just looking at them.

The photos are so beautiful, I have never felt like this before.

Incredible.

Oh, there was my favorite playing-cards scene. I think fans will absolutely

be happy with these photos.

The skating scenes too, really—

I skated while playing the music I used back in my competitive days, so it felt like all these dots were truly connecting, and it was super emotional.

So,

how should I put it, honestly, this is

a photobook packed with everything I can do right now, so I really want everyone to see it soon.

Thank you very much.
