Back in 2018, Tam Nakano released two photobooks through Stardom with a theme, one called DAY and one called NIGHT. The DAY photobook showed Tam Nakano in a more traditional photobook spread, as she was on the beach and around town during the (you guessed it) day. The NIGHT photobook took a more artsy approach, using not only the night time theme but filters and creative shots to show a different side of her.

Whether DAY or NIGHT is better to fans will just depend on their style preference. NIGHT relies more on unique lighting and shots to present an original photobook that goes outside the norm of what many would expect from Stardom. Some will like the change, while others will prefer the standard photobook presentation that was given with the DAY release. They certainly spent a lot of time making the photobook as there are over a dozen different outfits/scenes displayed over the course of the photobook, so even though the style is different the effort was greater between the scene changes and the extra effects. Even though its not traditional, NIGHT is a solid compliment to DAY and is a must for any serious collector of Tam Nakano media. Here are a sample of pictures from the photobook:
