Hajimemashite minna san....welcome to my site on my fave Japanese Pop Culture likes such as dramas, movies, magazine scans, promo events etc. Mainly concentrate on my faves...Risa Watanabe... Kyoko Saito... Yui Kobayashi....Nana Owada.... Nene Shida.... if you're a fan at all of any of them then you've come to the right place(!) but many others are featured here besides them.

Many, many screenshots are included from everything I've watched plus any video trailers if they're available.

Nogizaka46: A little bit of this and that for 2019 #20....



 Kind of amazing how there's always something to post about Nogi or one their members, seems I rarely go 2-3 days between posts but none of you nor I am complaining. But unfortunately most of those posts these days don't include Mai too often and what a slow stretch she's had which has gone on for too long. She does have a film coming out in two months so hope that means we'll be seeing much more of her. But it's been a while since she's had a superb mag spread but does have some new pics at the With Online site plus did appear at an event earlier this week. Just a few pics from it as I still prefer saving most of her pics for a solo post.






 Just one new mag spread for today but it's a huge one which will be near the bottom. As usual I've come in thinking this may be a small post, though I haven't counted the pics bet there's over fifty new ones and may have over thirty from years past. Those ones from ancient times are some group Christmas cards and may do a huge post with all of their older ones. Seems there were many from 2014 to 2016 but not nearly as many these past few years.

















 Been a while since there's been any Nanami pics in a post so also have a few X-Mas pics of her from olden times. In two months it'll be three years since she left Nogi and hasn't the time flown right by? No clue what she's doing these days but she's kept her promise of retiring from the entertainment industry and though it's been a while I still miss her so badly.





















 Also plan on having a solo post for Misa in about three weeks which is when her new photobook is coming out and odds are high it'll be her final one ever. Do have a pair of mag spreads, some modeling pics and there should be an event for it so think that upcoming post will be a dandy. Title of the PB is "Decision" and it just may be her top book to date.






 Mizuki also has a photobook coming out on January 21st and it'll be her first one. She's in today's spread but am hoping for a few solo sets to promote the book and it appears it's going to have many more gravure pics than we presumed and always thought she was more on the conservative side. Have posted many advance pics but two more just came out this week.



 On December 16th there were two events that Nogi members attended, had one of them in the last group post. The other event featured the trio of Asuka, Kazumi and Sayuri who were at the 61st 'Shining Japan Record Awards' press conference. It was to promote the December 30th music show which will air on TBS where you can watch the entire awards show. Once again Nogi was nominated for being the best group and also are up for song of the year. As you can see in the pics also up for awards were Keya, Hina46, AKB and a few other known artists, will have more details after the show airs and of course Nogi will also be performing New Years Eve on the NHK 'Kohaku' show.




















 Some bonus pics from today's one mag spread.










 The huge spread features the third generation members Minami, Mizuki and Yuki who may have been in more spreads this year than any other member. The set is from the December issue of Bomb, if you include the above set of pics the spread was 24 pages.
















 Started off with a Mai so why not end off with the group's other one. She's also the oldest member who will be turning 28 in exactly a month. Have five new pics from the andGirl site and the same amount of new ones from Oggi. For that awards show mentioned above their single "Sing Out!" was nominated for best song of the year, have a video of it after the pics.
