Nao Kanzaki: The dozen most popular women for 2022!!!!

 


 In a huge surprise that's a woman you won't be seeing in the top twelve. So I just finished my top sixteen faves list for the year, this could be considered you viewer's top faves for 2022. I just compiled the stats and these were your most popular women, seven faves of ours made both lists. To be eligible was quite easy, a woman just needed six posts for the year and 28 qualified. Was going to make this list ten but eleven and twelve weren't too far off the pace so included them. Of course at the top is Yuki and in 2020 she was the most popular woman here as her posts averaged 1,394 views, last year that average dropped to 1,304 views but she still ended up in second. For 2022 her posts only averaged 796 views and bet the biggest reason was no new gravure pics but to me those posts were all terrific. The final post for 2021 was one for Yuki, will do the same this year and that'll be her best post for 2022.



 So we had the seven who made both lists, this one for today and the list for my top faves of the year. Sadly Yui didn't make the top twelve and she was my # fave of the year. Her posts for 2022 had the 15th highest average which was 712, least that's much higher than previous years.





 Also not making the list was Risa, bring her up for she was #1 on my 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' list. She was the 14th most popular woman here as her posts had an average of 794 which is higher than last year but almost everyone's average was at least 10% higher save for two. In 2019 Risa did win the honor for being the most popular and those posts had an average of 1,111.





 Sadly someone has to bring up the rear and for 2022 that was Marie. What a bad year she had compared to her previous four, she tumbled from being number on the 2021 fave's list to 16th this year. Her average post drew 550 views(!) and the woman in 27th place had an average of 596 so it wasn't even close for finishing last! Been wanting to do a post for Marie as she was at an event three weeks ago and looked out of this world! But there's been so little else to post about her so here's a few pics from that event.





 The averages for one year really increase as time goes on. For instance #1 in 2020 had an average of 1,394 views per post, two years later that average is now close to 3,400!!!! As mentioned qualifying was easy as just six posts for the year were needed and this could be considered you viewers top faves list of the year. The record for an average was 1,450 which was set last year, for 2022 that would have ranked only third! The top two spots are what I figured they would be however thought it would have been a battle but #1 ran away from the pack! Will go from twelve to one to keep the suspense up, for each position will have their averages and other stats along with a link to one of their 2022 posts. The stats were done on December 24th, sure not much changed in one day.

#12.... Nashiko Momotsuki, her fourteen posts had an average of 824

 This is a big fave for all of us but not as high as it may seem. Nashiko makes this list every year but never in the top five, she was one of just two women who saw their average decrease this year. She also fell eight positions on this year's faves list and wish she started to do more of a variety of things like she once did such as cosplaying, acting, etc.





#11.... Nami Iwasaki who had an average of 829 views for her six posts

 Here's a real pleasant surprise and how I wish she had so many more than six posts. Of all the newbies introduced this year I think Nami is the most attractive and alluring of all of them, that includes the two that topped the list! Plus the first photo below is my #1 of the year, where has she been lately?





#10.... Nene Shida whose 26 posts(!) had an average of 850

 Two years in a row for making the top ten but how I was hoping this position would be higher. Being tenth is still impressive but noticed as the year went on that Nene's posts were drawing fewer and fewer views. Wonder if it was a case of her having too many posts as the 26 for this year tied a record. But I'm still ga-ga over her as she did finish second on this year's faves list.





#9.... Rena Moriya, she had nine posts that had an average of 874

 Another nice surprise but it may be a one and done deal as it could be so difficult for her to have six posts next year. What a fave she has become of mine and you viewers, a year ago who would have thought she would have been in this position and also eighth on my yearly list? No one I bet and Rena is just so darn attractive, knew of her coming into 2022 but she was kind of hidden by other Keya members but when she got her chance to shine she certainly did!!!!





 #8.... Kazusa Okuyama whose fifteen posts had an average of 952 views

 Fifteen posts for the year but only two after August. Kazusa is the only one to make the list all four years I've been doing this, as a matter of fact she's been in the top eight every year. We all like her immensely and it goes to prove you don't need to be an overly bodacious gravure model to be popular here. She's been too quiet the last four months but do have a pair of new magazine spreads though both are too small but her next post should be very, very soon.





 #7.... Hinako Kitano, had an average of 974 views for her seventeen posts

 Wow, seventeen posts for 2022 and coming in she never had more than seven in a year! This was one terrific year for Hinako who was third on the yearly list plus second on my 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' list, what can she do for an encore? Don't know but she's always been popular here though it was hard to prove as she never had enough solo posts.





 #6.... Maria Makino, she had fourteen posts that averaged 1,162 views

 What a huge difference between seventh and sixth, almost 200 views per post. Was a bit surprised that Maria had fourteen posts for the year as she seemed to be so quiet after May. She hasn't had a solo magazine spread for ages and what has she been doing? Have no clue and figured we'd be seeing much more of her this month as Morning Musume released a new single but that hasn't been the case.





 #5.... Yume Shinjo whose eight posts had an average of 1,254 views

 Here's another fave who has semi-disappeared, been trying for almost a month to do a post for her but it just hasn't worked out. This is Yume's third year on the list and seems we all like her immensely! She had a spurt of being a bit busy early on this year but since then the posts have been far and few between and there's no doubt we've all been missing her.





 #4.... Kyoko Saito who had an average of 1,388 views for her eleven posts

 This is last year's #1 and this is still a very impressive position. In 2021 Kyoko's posts had an average of 1,450 views which is of course a bit higher. But she had a photobook last year and those always help out the averages, there was none for this year so that average means she has quite a few fans here. Count me in as a huge one as she finished fourth on the yearly faves list.





 #3.... Asuka Kawazu has ten posts that had an average of 1,447 views

 Does help being a gravure model to make the list or at least an Idol who had a photobook this year though of course the above is an exception. Asuka is another mystery as far as what happened to her goes. Of those ten posts eight were for 2021 magazine spreads and photobooks, most were from the second half of that year. But when 2022 rolled around we heard so little of her, just did a post for her three weeks ago but that was her first one since about June.





 #3.... Risa Yukihira whose twenty posts had an average of 1,622 views

 That average blew the previous record away yet it'll only stand for one position! Hadn't paid attention to most stats until compiling this list but did notice one key thing. Which is how inconsistent Risa's posts have been, she's had five that have over 2,000 views yet so many have never hit a thousand. While no post has been unpopular they've gone up and down as far as views go, she had twenty posts this year and is it another case of perhaps she had too many of them?








 #1.... Miyu Murashima, she had an average of 1,970 views for her ten posts

 Had a strong feeling Miyu would be number one but didn't know realize she blew everyone away by so much! That average beats the old record by over 500 views a post(!), had I not done one for her on November 25th that average many have been over 2,000!! So obviously Miyu is the biggest fave by far with you viewers and hope I can continue to have many posts for her, just had a new one yesterday. Did notice that Miyu's posts are fairly consistent, the only one with less than a thousand views was that one done on November 25th yet it'll hit that mark as it already has 650 views.
