Nao Kanazaki: Brief update about the mini break plus the top ten most popular posts for 2020....


****EDIT: Published this post on the 20th and had thought the next posts may not be for a week. However will be doing at least ten of them tomorrow or today as it's Sunday the 23rd for most reading this edit. Will explain why all of those posts will be done in one day and also about the current situation which is still up in the air.

 No real reason for starting off with Sarii save for the fact she's my #1 hottest woman I rarely get a chance to post about. Following this are a pair of posts for the second preliminary list for this year's top faves, am writing this up a day early and still haven't figured out past the fifth position. Am hoping there will be at least one other post besides those two for today but there's been so, so many posts lately am running out of things.

 For the past few weeks have been saying how I would be taking a break around the 20th. It is true I need one but am not going to be taking a break from doing posts but publishing them. As I've mentioned often on the 24th Blogger is changing the formatting on creating posts but this main page shouldn't change. The version I'm using now is called Legacy, if you're also a Blogger you know what I'm talking about and perhaps you've had problems with the new version. It's available but I've never used it and won't until it's forced on us.

 From what I've read the main problem is uploading pictures and you know I can't live without them. Don't think posts like this one will be too much of a hassle but ones that have many pics uploaded at once will be. Those posts for photobooks and drama recaps could be affected greatly but perhaps the problem will be resolved once the 24th rolls around but not holding my breath. Mei Angela is another incredibly alluring woman who I seldom post about. Actually never these days as it's been over a year since her last one after having eight from early 2018 to mid 2019.


 So although the new version won't be forced upon is until the 24th want to spend the three days before writing up as many drama recaps as I can plus doing a few photobook posts. Would like to have a bit of a backup for posts in case there is a huge problem creating posts so if there's seven ready to go can just publish them until I can figure out a way around the problems. As most may notice this blog and the way I post are very simple and haven't changed anything in years. Will add in that my plan sounds good in theory but know myself and bet I won't do half the posts I'd like to do.

 So perhaps because of it being simple here there won't be many or any issues, hopefully so but even if things work out fine there still won't be any posts for the next few days. But if there's no problems then there could be an avalanche of posts to end the month off with, those 7-10 that will be ready to be published plus whatever else arises in the next week. But in those days off may come back to do a post if something out of this world comes up. For instance, have been praying that Nogi will release a group photobook called "Unfolded Arms" if you catch my meaning.... 😅



 Speaking of Nogi the first post you'll see when I return is this tremendous photobook....



 Enough of that boring talk, thanks if you read it and like to keep you faithful viewers aware of any impending news or breaks. So as a bonus will have the top ten most viewed posts for this year, a Nao year goes from December 1st until November 30th. Originally was going to have the top ten most popular gals according to how many views their average posts get. But wasn't too impressed with how it turned out, the only criteria used was to have five or more posts. Even using that so many of the bigger faves of you viewers wouldn't have made the list but will be having another special post in about two weeks and may do that list then. Let's get to things and will go from the tenth spot up to number one, there will be four pics from the post and a link to it.



#10, Yuki Yoda with 1,430 views for her"Mukuchi na Jikan" photobook from July 15th

 Seven of the ten are photobook posts but many that aren't barely missed. All posts these days get more views than they did in prior years and this will be a record year for views. The only reason this post isn't higher in the standings is because it was done just five weeks ago, as far as average views per post Yuki is number one for this year.





#9, Kazusa Okuyama.... 1,558 views for her January 31st 'Pair of mag spreads plus more' 

 As far as post averages go Kazusa is in second place and her posts as of now get about sixty less views per post compared to the above gal. Will be working on the faves list once this post is done, she should be in the top sixteen but no clue where which is the case for almost everyone.





#8, Elaiza Ikeda.... 1,562 views for her June 6th post "Pinturita" photobook

 Tight for eighth place as ninth was just four views behind. This is a bit of a surprise, not that it made the list for most views but that it didn't finish much higher. Have only done six posts ever for Elaiza which is a shame as she's so popular with you viewers and it's easy to see why.





#7, Kazusa Okuyama... 1,615 views for her February 25th post 'A trio of  spreads'

 Kazusa was one of two gals to make the list twice, she had two other posts not far off so hard to understand why she's not #1 as far as post average goes. But there's a little over three months to go in the Nao year so wouldn't be shocked if she grabbed that top spot.





#6, Hinako Sano... 1,695 views for her February 27th "Best Hinako photobook"

 This is the second of three surprises, one I thought would have more more views but the other two because of how many they've received. This PB had come out in 2018 but hadn't posted it until this year. Hinako doesn't do nearly as many gravure spreads as she once did but did release another PB back in March and has always been quite popular here.





#5, Yuki Yoda... 1.960 views for her March 9th 'The second of two limited edition posts'

 Yuki is the other person to reach the top ten twice and this the highest viewed post of the year that isn't a photobook. Her second PB is still selling well has it's once again in the top ten for sales, once things get back to normal will be having another solo post for her.





#4, Mizuki Yamashita... 2,010 views for her June 1st "Wasurerarenai Hito PB"

 Just two Nogi members made the top ten but of course they remain the most popular group of gals I post about. Having a post earlier in the year did help but three since June have made the top ten and sure by the end of the year it may not make too much of a difference.





#3, Hinatazaka46.... 2,210 views for their February 27th post "Tachikogi PB"

 Without a doubt this is the biggest surprise of the year. This post has really shown some staying power as back in June it was the fourth most viewed post of the year and it's moved up one spot since then. Just did a Keya post yesterday for Kyoko who has the top pic and should have a few more posts for them coming up.





 #2, Minami Tanaka... 3,060 views for her March 7th "Sincerely Yours PB"

 Little doubt this would make the list though thought the total views may have been higher. Once the break is over will be having a post for Minami who was my #1 fave for last year. She was extremely popular here until a few months ago and her posts have seen such a decrease in views which is shocking as they've had some utterly breathtaking pics.





#1, Miru Shiroma... 3,770 views for her March 4th post "Love Rush PB"
Miru's PB

One day later.... Sorry about having the wrong link at first, it's the correct one now

 No person will be catching this post for most views this year, that's over a 700 views difference between first and second! Lack of Miru posts this year though she has been a busy gal but there's been very few mag spreads and such for her. But NMB did have a single that was released today so will be working on a group post, like Nogi gals she needs to unfold those arms, you'll see what I really mean if you view the post....
