MODEL · PERFORMER

Japanese kinbaku model and performer, one of the most visible contemporary rope models in the Naka Akira orbit. Nawapedia gives July 11, 1981 as her birth date, says she entered AV production in 2008, developed an interest in kinbaku around 2010, stopped AV production work in 2011 and debuted as a kinbaku model after contacting Naka Akira. In her 2014 Kinbaku Today interview, Iroha says she contacted Naka directly in December 2011, was tied by him for the first time at Nawa-Naka-Kai the following February, then became certain after a Norio Sugiura photo shoot that kinbaku modeling was the world she wanted to work in. She describes repeated professional work as a lesson model and live-show partner for Naka, photo-shoot / lesson-model work with Yukimura Haruki and Osada Steve, and self-tie / self-suspension practice. Later sources keep her visible as Naka's long-term model / partner in the international Naka Style circuit, with Kinbaku Lounge Copenhagen 2017, Studio TIEY 2025 and Roca #3 traces. Kinbaku Today's Murasaki / Iroha print article also frames her collaboration with Murasaki Haruan as part of keeping Yukimura-ryu visible after Yukimura's death.
