Her first photo book, released in October 2025 and shot in Bali, Indonesia, became a significant topic of conversation. This digital release was decided based on the sentiment that 'it would be a waste not to release these 20,000 other cuts to the world'. Kawagoe herself selected bold shots that she was previously too shy to include in the print edition, feeling that they would be appropriate for a digital format.
The work features numerous backshots and focuses on revealing lingerie and swimwear. With many cuts showing more skin than the 1st photo book, it is a substantial volume of 81 pages. The cover, also selected by Kawagoe, features her in light blue lingerie.
The title lettering is in her own handwriting, using her penlight color, orange. The collection includes a first-ever reveal of a shot from directly behind in blue lingerie, sheer pink pieces, bold red T-back lingerie, and yellow swimwear shots taken at Kuta Beach. The final page includes her comments and newly drawn illustrations of her original characters.
