Akari Suda: Sigh, I just can never get tired of her....

 


 Wrote a post up yesterday which will be published shortly after this one is done. In that post said I wrote it up early as there was zero else to have for today and needed time to work on a second possible post. So as you can see that worked out well and why didn't I think of doing this post in the first place? I have been smitten with Akari 😍 since about 2015 and that smittenness(is that a word?) has grown so much higher over the years and especially these days. Often moan about how her posts don't get as many views as they deserve which in a way is true but there's many others who are much less popular.... gulp, will we ever see photos like these again?



 This will be like most of her other posts as it'll be a nice mix of recent and older things, for today have over seventy pics that have never been posted here before! Wish there were a few more newer pics for Akari but doing these kinds of posts will still help her out immensely on the yearly fave's list. In 2018 she finished in the second position(!), last year seventh and if these kinds of posts continue for a while could see her ending up around fourth for this year! In 2018 and 2022 did my 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' lists and think doing those every four years will work out well as that's enough time for things to change either positively or negatively. In Akari's case these posts will help her so much for the next list which would be done in 2026 if I'm still around. If she can stay busy for a while longer and not elope in the next few years(!) she has an excellent chance of being #1 in that list, for the 2022 list she finished seventh but had been moving up rapidly.



 As mentioned in the post below this one will be doing a 'Pairs Post' in about ten days. I enjoy doing those and you viewers seem to enjoy them quite a bit too so it's a shame there's been so few of them this past year. First off are some super duper ancient Akari SKE cards from 2012, they had a series back then called BLT and don't know if that had anything to do with the magazine. Nogi also had a card series with that name and those were mighty terrific too. Speaking of SKE keep forgetting to do a group post for their current activities but promise to try working on one or two. Their current single "Suki ni natchatta" came out on July 5th and is doing extremely well. It's the group's 31st single and it sold 233,000 copies in its first day out, best sales number in 3 1/2 years.

















 That 3 1/2 years goes back to January 2020 and the group's 26th single "So-Yu-Toku Aru Yo Ne?", Akari was the center for the first and only time. Akari looks perfect 😍 in my eyes no matter how she's (un)dressed but will admit that I will miss her gravure magazine spreads if there are no more of them. Her last one was in December and she's probably had fifty of them in the last decade. There's still many older things to get to such as the above cards and the occasional mag spread. Such as this set that had never been posted before and is from UTB+ #24 that came out in March 2015.









 Akari appears on so many variety shows, usually 3-4 a week. I'd like to see her do more acting in dramas as it's been so long since I've seen her in anything, she did have the lead role in a Spring stage play titled "Bumblebee 7". Akari does have a mini special travel series that began on July 1st called "HC85". That's the name of the train she will be travelling on and for the show she'll be going from Nagoya to Naki to Wakayama and a few other places. Here's some pics from her adventure so far and after them is a promo video for the show, also here's the link to the site: Nanki show site













 

 We've hit the end, may have seemed like a short post but there were seventy new photos! As usual will end off with many new photos from her IG page, no one posts more of them than Akari does and to me they're always close to being unbeatable!!!! These go from June 22nd to July 7th, in the sixth pic you will notice her with an ex-Nogi member. There's also a few photos of Akari at the grand opening of a new Fender guitar store, she's had three solo concerts though none since November. Only been two new videos recently, one is above and the other was in her last post, she does have a YT channel but rarely adds videos which is slightly disappointing. So did mention Fender guitars and didn't realize she had a video for them that came out last October, that video is after the pics.
