Tomoe was great in her early teenage years. Not so great afterwards. And Rei has the right to criticize the gravure idol industry whenever she wants if it affected her in a negative way. The gratitude thing is bullshit.

There’s a lot of gravure-type of postings on Tomoe’s Instagram. What’s she up to? New work? It appears intriguing.
It looks like images from her last photobook from a couple of years ago, or at least images from that same photoshoot.
She's retired from gravure now. Occasionally she teases with questions like "Would I still be good for gravure?" and such, but that's just her charm. I don't think she's coming back for a third run.
It means "Yuzu Hot spring water".
More precisely, she is refering to the Yuzu bath, which is a bathing tradition celebrated on winter solstice in Japan.

A comeback, perhaps...or is she just teasing her fans?
Everyone, if I return to Gravure
Will you cheer me on?
Returning first Graiva will require quite a bit of your strength.
There will also be a photo session.
I hope to meet you all
I want to achieve results no matter what.
Guinness-class gradol and your strength
Key.
It is a return to gravure the second post confirms it, and also says she will have a photo session (the kind of thing where normal people can book a slot and take pictures of her, it's very common in Japan most idol groups have them as well)
I was just about to post about this. Damn, you guys are fast!
Please make it so!

This is awesome! By the time I was aware of her last comeback it was already all over because I'd pretty much given up checking then, so I'm really happy I'll be able to see this one "live".
I realise now that I posted that question after the recent JI purge which I only just read about in recent days, but I know that that link never worked for a long time before that anyway. Is there any reason the Tomoe thread was singled out like that (possibly with others)?
Great news! Mayumi is also very active on social media, has she even really retired?
It's not that it was singled out, it was because the link was created when Akiba's forum software was different and nobody really bothered to update it with the correct one after the software was changed. But the thread existed if you searched for it (well, no more though).
Here's her latest tweet on Twitter confirming that she is back!
