Maria Makino: Her semi-historical and overly sweltering eighth post(yay)!!!!

 


 Hmmmm, sweltering is an apt word for this post but haven't Maria's previous ones been that way too?! Of course the answer to that is a rousing Yes and if she doesn't watch it Maria could soon become my #1 fave, in a way hope she doesn't watch it! Long way to go until the yearly fave's list is done but would say at this time she has that number one ranking and isn't her first name so close to the woman who has been #1 the past two years? The pace won't continue but this is her eighth post in 42 days and that has to be some sort of record.



 So though this record breaking(?) pace won't continue think there will be 2-3 posts in April, still am only going back to January 2021 for Maria's pics. So will try to make these posts medium sized in order to have many of them but have at least 55 pics for today which have never been posted before. In Morning Musume news they just released a digital single titled "I Wish". But it's not actually a new song as it's a remake of the group's tenth single which came out in 2000, those singles from that era are unbeatable. This new version is solid too but wish they had released a brand new song as they only had one single last year and would like to do a group post as it's been a long time since one was done.



 Like her last few posts this will be a mix of recent and older things. After today still have at least two mag spreads from 2021 to get to plus some modeling pics and whatever. Maria will also be in the next issue of UTB which comes out at the beginning of April, will be ending off the post with one of their spreads from last year which could be her best to date. Those modeling pics will include some from the Sweet site as Maria is a part time model for them. Have a pair of spreads for them here with the top four being from last November while the other five are new from Sweet's March issue.










 Maria already has eight photobooks at such a young age, it's now a tradition that one comes out on her February 2nd birthday. "M21" is the title of Maria's newest book which sold well as it was in the top ten for sales two out of it's first three weeks. In previous posts had some superb outtake pics from the PB and have five more which hadn't been posted before.






 There was also a 65 minute DVD included with the photobook from it's photo shoot. So have been including many screenshots from the video and no need to tell you how dazzlingly perfect Maria looks, these screenshots go from the 29 to 38 minute mark.





















 We're already at the end, huge amount of pics but not as much variety as usual. Don't know if any Idol can top Maria's mag spreads from the past year and thus could be her top one to date. It's from the September issue of UTB and Maria was the back cover girl. This batch has 26 pics but about ten are bonus ones from the photo shoot, after is a video for the making of the spread which is not to be missed!
