Miu Shitao: Her uneagerly awaited yet enchanting third intro post!

 


 Will make this another medium sized post and by doing that as I think there can be two more posts then for Miu after today though this will probably end up being rather large. Not that it makes many of you leap for joy as those first two posts weren't massively popular but did draw a fair amount of views. And did find that Miu does have a big fan out there who visits here and that's nice to see as to me she seems like such a down to earth woman and I really prefer posting about ones such as her. So while I called it a medium sized post there's about sixty photos that weren't in her first two posts. It was also a 'spur of the moment' post as I wasn't planning on doing this until the end of the week so didn't work as hard on in but will for those next two which should be much larger.



 Also do posts for two other AKB gals and doesn't it seem their image has changed over the last few years? To me it does and the change is a positive one as the members do seem to be a bit more modest and conservative. For a while, say 2014-18, seemed many current members and especially graduates developed such swelled heads and perhaps that was easy to understand as the group was so immensely popular. That kind of attitude does turn me off which is why I shied away from AKB for a few years, while I never will be a huge fan again think their music has improved the past two years plus I really like members such as Miu and a few other of her mates.


 Will begin off with some newish photos from Miu's IG page, all have been posted since August 22nd and as mentioned I much prefer her conservative yet very attractive style. Two pics near the bottom are for an AKB Halloween photo shoot, will get some older Miu pics for the eerie day and have her next post right around then.

















 Have even more IG photo and this batch is from something very impressive. Miu posted these three days ago and announced that she had just graduated from college so congrats to her, it took 4 1/2 years but that's quite good considering she's been a FT J-Pop Idol. Checked a few sites but couldn't find what school she attended as she didn't mention that, glad it was a graduation from college and not AKB!








 There's been a slowdown with AKB cards but have a small batch here, have a few more for her next post though am hoping some will be released before then. Miu has done a lot of acting the past few years as she had the lead role in a film plus was in eight stage plays from 2021-23. However the total was zero for this year and maybe it's because AKB seemed to be a bit busier plus more importantly she was finishing college.











 Miu did appear in a fair amount of magazines from 2022 until April of this year but hasn't had a spread since then. Have seven mag spreads still left to post, will have three for today which means her next pair of posts will each have two but those posts may have more variety such as some pics from older events. First up are these two spreads that are combined as she was the cover girl for the February 6th and 13th issues of Weekly Ascii, their spreads are always small ones but the pics get an A++++ from me.










 
 At the end of January her first photobook was released, in that next post will have at least one spread that has outtake pics from it. Will end off with Miu's largest spread to date plus it's her best one or least it's my fave from her and she was the cover girl for the March issue of Young Dragon Age. There are a few pics from the book in this spread and don't think she's ever had a video for any of her photo shoots. Miu does host her own YT show called "Narutao" and she does have quite a few videos. Her newest one is after the pics and she took a trip to Kamakura which is just outside of Kyoto, I enjoyed watching it and actually it was better than most gravure videos.
