Kanon Shizaki (JP: 志崎樺音), a voice actress and artist known for her striking visuals and style, is set to release her first photobook in print form on Wednesday, April 15, published by Kodansha. For Shizaki, who has drawn attention not only for her talent but also for her appearance and figure, this marks her first ever physical photobook.

The photoshoot took place last autumn across two locations, Tokyo and Karuizawa. Against the contrasting backdrops of the city’s refined atmosphere and Karuizawa’s nature filled scenery, the photobook captures expressions of Shizaki that she has never revealed before.

The newly released preview cuts include one in which she wears a pale green tulle dress that highlights her fair, beautiful skin, as well as another showing her in loungewear inside a hotel room with an ennui expression. Both deepen the appeal of Shizaki’s photogenic charm.

As a challenge unique to a photobook, the volume also includes Shizaki’s first ever lingerie cut. Spanning 128 pages, the photobook presents visuals that balance delicacy and boldness, resulting in a collection that captures Shizaki’s current charm in full.

To commemorate the release, it has also been decided that events will be held on April 26 at Roppongi Tsutaya Books in Tokyo and Animate Ikebukuro PACKS.

Shizaki is known as the keyboardist of Roselia, a band formed through the BanG Dream! girls band project, and as the voice actress who plays Rinko Shirokane. With the band’s heavy sound and her delicate character performance earning strong support, Shizaki has expanded her career beyond voice acting, actively producing music and performing live as a solo artist.

On January 9, she also successfully held her first ever solo concert, further broadening her activities.
