Rui Takanashi: Her astonishing 'STRIKE!' digital photobook....

 


 Kept saying that there would be a group post for BababaBambi in August but that never happened, as a group they haven't seemed to be all that busy lately. While doing a few concerts over the Summer it didn't seem as though they did as many as previous years plus it's been a while since their last single or album. Will admit I haven't followed them as closely since Mio 😍 announced her departure on July 29th and to say I adored her to no end would be the understatement of the year! Not sure what's going on with her and had wondered if Mio has been pushed out because of her age as she did turn 27 in June but that shouldn't be the case as another member also turned 27 recently.



 Plus Rui will be hitting the age of 27 on October 24th so perhaps age had nothing to do with anything. October may be a busy month for Rui as two weeks before that birthday her first regular photobook will be released and shocked that the honor didn't go to a more popular member. Rui's last two posts though have been popular and she is quite a cutie despite getting up there in age. This is her third digital book of the year but hope to have at least one regular post coming up because of the book, one or hopefully two posts that will have some mag spreads, event and interview pics plus promo photos for the book.



 This will be a simple post as there will only be two sections but do have over seventy terrific pics of Rui. First off will be an encore viewing of this mag spread that was released on February 7th by the Strike! magazine. It was a special issue that featured the J-Pop members from the Familia agency which Rui and BababaBambi are a part of. Four of the five members paired up with someone and the gal with Rui was Hinano Himeno who is currently with #Mooove! and I don't know much about them. But have been noticing them more lately and I need some new groups to follow as the '46' groups are really boring me....

















 On to the sparkling book and think this is the final one. The digital books are a continuation of the Strike! magazine spreads and they began to come out at the beginning of July, one every 2-3 weeks so this could be it and all have truly been stupendous. This book officially came out on August 30th and contains 55 photos but wish she hadn't been paired up again. There is a video of the photo shoot after the pics and as mentioned hope to have at least one post for Rui in October plus once again will say hopefully for the group also....
