Actress Erika Sawajiri, 23, is making her first comeback since being dismissed from her management office last September in a different medium. As of Monday, Sawajiri adorned the wall of Ginza's Sony Building on a giant poster for aesthetic salon Takano Yuri Beauty Clinic.
The poster, which measures 28.5 meters by 6.7 meters, features a semi-nude Sawajiri -- painted in a black latex-like substance and perched on one foot in stiletto heels -- and the words "Sawajiri Erika, kaikin." (unbanned or released).

This wild wild flower has had her crazy moments.
Now that she's back to the scene, the virulent game only gets more virulent.
"Oh [expletive]" -- another one of hers. I'll stick to this one.

speedracer,
you are confusing nudity with privacy. I assume she, like other famous ppl aroung the world, wants to go out wi/o the press hounding her, taking pix of her getting into this and that car, store, bar, etc. As an entertainer, her job is to be in the public eye, acting, or taking her clothes off for advertising. But when she goes home she wants to be a private citizen. So, As long as you're not standing outside her window slobbering, you can slobber guilt-free.

Good photoshop job though.

I guess she has to sell her body now because nobody likes her personality.

I wish I could stroll down to Ginza and check out this huge poster of Sawajiri for a good while. Too bad I'm not in Japan now...

I don't want to be a party pooper, but I see that she has been doing risque pictures since she was.. well.. it looks like what? 15 or something? And now this. But her production company says that she values her "privacy." This is absurd. She really ought to make up her mind. Exposure or privacy. Either way is ok, with me, but I want to know if I can leer and slobber guilt-free or not.

I'm no fan of hers but that's a really nice poster. Really.

Erika Sawajiri is definitely coming back! Good for her. But better for us males around the world!

I liked her as she was acting a girl with a disability on "1 liter of tears" program.
But she failed to say "Betsu ni" when being interviewed and lost place to be in entertainment industry. It was like a snow boarder "Kokubo" in Vancouver Olympics. I hope she learned the sense of respect, propriety, gratitude and so on.

When is that poster going to be available on Yahoo auction?

I think she looks even better in her yellow bikini, but that's just me.

Yappari!
This is great! Just great! I guess Ginza will be full of XY chromosomes these days.

"since being dismissed from her management office"
I'll bet when asked if she felt bad about that, she said, "Betsu ni."
R_M_s
Yes please.

Looking good Erika!
nisegaijin

I heard she was a good actor/actress. Here is hoping she rides this sleaze thing through.

To get this fashion to be more erotic, clear heals, w/ not black coating, but a shimmering clear iridescent coating (degree of white to blend into skin color), a splash of red or black. Mikey likey.
goddog
Oh yea, those heels should be clear plastic. Would enhance the leg lines better.
norinrad21
I welcome her back in all her glory. magnificent legs

Watching her press conference on TV now. She's so weird.
5SpeedRacer5
She's been dipped in something. Mmm... chocolatey latex.
dammit
Unbelievably tacky. Although it could potentially be much worse, so mustn't grumble too much.
Glad I'm not going near Ginza in the near future though.
bobbafett
she looks like Agent Smith has entered her.
goddog
I like it

It'd be hilarious if she got busted for drugs back in Japan. I imagine she's on something.
meloveulongtime
sleaze for any reason is ok by me...good job Erika!
pawatan
She needs sleaze to get her career back.
gogogo
Drugs in Japan to re-launch your career.
