Looks like a cute teen in a bathing suit to me. I think I took similar pictures of myself and my friends when we were that age.

It is kinda weird...but it isn't too bad. Once a girl in my class saved...well, lets say inapropriate pictures to her computer...at school of all places! She was only 11 too...

well im a rina koike fan (suppremegoddess knows that ) My oath, do I know that. But doesn't it give you insight into her daily doings? And they're not as revealing like the ones Ayaka did... She's almost fourteen, don't forget...

I honestly don't think it's a big deal. When you are 13 you know what it means to pose naked. You also know what it means to put on a cute bathing suit and take some photos. None of those pictures look sexually provocative to me, and I bet you would see much more sexual poses from 13 year old American idols. I think those images are modest, cute, and playful.

Rorikon is just the way the Japanese pronounce Lolicom. And yes it's Lolicom and not Lolicon because "Com" is short for "Complex".

yeah I see what you guy mean ( except for haruka173,otakuartistgirl second post and rosesablaze who are talking about lolipops or somethin ) but these are'nt private " joke with your friends" photo's these are being boughten by tons of people everywhere and she's not even at beach or a pool so swimsuits are NOT necsairy, and with the kind of men who live in japan ,you don't want pictures of yourself like that out there.

I'm not seeing the problem here. The bathing suit is very modest and the poses are hardly provacative.
Fan-service, probably. But nothing even CLOSE to child-porn.

*patpat* Sometimes we get concerned when things we love are exposed to things we are unsure of.

It looks fine to me. Her bathing suit is not very provacative, it's not even a string bikini. Anyway the only thing I find weird are the fake pink and white feathers, or whatever they are... hm
