Nogizaka46: Mai Shinuchi "Doko ni Iruno" photobook scans



 Numbers are out for last week's photobook sales and Mai easily topped the list as her first PB sold 15,200 copies which was over 10,000 more than the book in second place. Sales weren't nearly as huge as the Nogi books from earlier this year and don't know why some of those photobooks sold as well as they did.
 Selling 15,000 copies is an impressive feat as that will usually top the charts in a week, think the fans and management were a bit spoiled by the sales of the previous books. But they sold well for many weeks which tells the story better if the fans really like the PB, see reason why Mai's book shouldn't remain in the top ten for a while.


 What could hurt future sales is the glut of books that are coming out. One Nogi member had a PB come out today while two more members will have a book in December and there's also the two Keya books that will be released. Still can't understand why the release dates weren't spread out more evenly as that would have definitely helped sales for this and the upcoming books.
 The PB was released on November 14th, it's the first one for Mai and as I've said for a few other members hope it's not her only book. There was an event for it a few days ago which probably helped sales and those weren't included in last week's numbers. On to the pics and there's close to a hundred of them, they were taken in Thailand when Nogi was there in July and August. Mai was one of six members to take part in a 'Travel Thailand' campaign and many of the pics are of her strolling the streets and visiting a few historic monuments.

  2. Hmmmm, pic 49 is Mai's confused expression on that.... #37 is darn good as didn't realize her legs were so long but she is the third tallest of the first and second generation members.

  3. Hm sh*t I got lost with your numbers because #37 had no legs showing(Legs are the bomb tho👌) and #49 kinda had a confused look although I would be smiling just like the old lady. So after a minute, realised you counted from the tippy top(which...I didn't. I counted from 'historic monuments') so what I really meant to say was "Pic 35!! by your ratings I give it a S"
    'S' for SMOTHER ME WITH YOUR b-..bo-TRANSCENDING BEAUTY!! ahah haa...
