The photography for this anniversary book was done by photographer Kotori Kawashima (
https://www.instagram.com/kotori_kawashima/), and includes life-sized images of him spending time in his hometown of Chiba. You can fully enjoy your true appearance without dressing up. In addition, there are many special projects such as a 20,000-character long interview looking back on his life and a 100-question and 100-answer session. The stage play "FROGS" will feature the anime "DREAM FESTIVAL" This is a masterpiece packed full of Ota's past and future, which I would like people who got to know Ota through Handsome Live to pick up.
There is also a special lineup of goods to commemorate the 10th anniversary, including a ``life-size poster calendar'' printed to Sonomama 's height, ``random tin badges,'' and ``random acrylic stands'' that are easy to use on a daily basis. "Tote bags" and "sweats" will also be on sale.
This is a must-see work that Ota himself produced and supervised the design, carefully creating with his feelings for everyone he has ever met. Please enjoy Masaki Ota 's 10th anniversary year through the anniversary book and goods!
Masaki Ota Comment I have decided to release an anniversary book to commemorate my 10th anniversary as an entertainer.
It's been 10 years already. But it's been 10 years. I have been through a time that cannot be easily expressed with the number 10.
I created this book with my daily gratitude that I am able to live the life I am now thanks to all the people I have met.
I took this photo in my hometown of Chiba Prefecture, looking back at the 10 years of ups and downs I have spent cultivating my foundation, and the road ahead.
The life-sized Ota, the innocent Ota, the standing Ota, all of them are elements of me, and I had the photographer Kotori Kawashima capture them without any modification. I think you will be able to see Masaki Ota Sonomama.
I would be happy if I could touch many people, including not only everyone who always supports me, but also people who have met me somewhere before, and people who are meeting me for the first time.
