Watanabe Nagisa’s Photo Book Controversy: Exploring the Impact on Mental Health and Public Perception

Question from a reader:
I’m curious about Watanabe Nagisa. I don’t think it’s appropriate for her to release a photo book with skin exposure, especially considering the implications for those who have experienced sexual trauma and suffer from PTSD. While she is a former announcer, I feel her style and appearance fall short compared to other announcers, and her face and
name don’t leave a strong impression. I wonder if many people have come to know her because of this incident. I might be rude, but I think her face resembles Yamada Hanako. Honestly, I feel she lacks the style and appearance expected of a gravure idol. What exactly does she want to achieve? I’m not interested in buying her photo book, and I wouldn’t want it even for free.

Thoughts on Watanabe Nagisa

Recently, Watanabe Nagisa has been a topic of discussion. Hearing news about her releasing a photo book with skin exposure has made me think a lot. I’m particularly concerned about how such actions might be perceived by those who are suffering from PTSD due to sexual trauma. While she is a former announcer, some might find her style and appearance somewhat less impressive compared to other announcers. Of course, beauty is subjective, and everyone has their own preferences, but I personally have some doubts about how she expresses herself. It seems unclear how she wants to present herself.

Recall of a Funny Episode

Actually, I once visited a gravure shooting site invited by a friend. During breaks, I saw models eating snacks and laughing, saying, “This is high in calories, but it’s delicious!” and it made me feel a sense of closeness. I ended up snacking too much during the breaks, and a staff member told me, “Be more serious!” (laughs). Thinking back on that, I feel she might also be grappling with some internal conflicts. Is she trying to convey something by exposing herself, or is it part of her self-expression? However, I hope she also considers the reactions of those around her and the feelings of her audience.
