Doesn't make it less creepy (and to be clear, I'm neither anti-joshi or even anti-gravure, although I have big problems with underaged girls doing it). And I really do think moving away from that in favor of being "New Japan Women" with more of a mainstream sports emphasis instead of trying to appeal to old uncles is benefiting Stardom. Which isn't to say that "gravure" stuff has no place at all but I get the sense that, with Rossy, it's kind of a "do the photobooks or I'm not going to push you" thing.
