Nanase Nishino: Her charming and captivating second photobook "Kaze wo Kigaete" scans.... a repost....

 


 Yet another post I wrote up on Saturday yet scheduled it's publish date to be on Monday, once again will say what a terrific feature that is. This is also the third older Nogi photobook that I've done a repost for in June, also did one in January and November. So that makes it five in all and am coming to a close with them, will have one more but no more than two. As mentioned before there have been a few good reasons for doing some reposts of older books, one is that I got a new version with higher quality pics. That wasn't the case for this book but had split up the 107 pics into two posts when one was enough. Did that often before 2018 and breaking up a book didn't help the view counts as the second post never received as many. On the original posts for this book the photos weren't quite in order so that's another improvement and did delete those other two posts. One other reason for these reposts is that the woman is put back in the spotlight for a few days after possibly being forgotten about....

 Doubt if Nanase has ever slipped the minds of most Nogi fans but it had been a while since her last post here. It's been over two years and it's not that I don't like Nanase anymore but the case of her doing very few activities these days which translate into interesting posts. After mid-2023 Nanase has rarely appeared in magazines nor at events plus doesn't do any regular modeling these days, I still follow her to a slight extent but not at the level I once did and there are many others I could say that about. Last March 31st she did get married to an actor so that's another reason for a decrease in activities, no small tots running around the household yet and she'll have to work on that soon for birthday #31 took place on May 25th.



 It's a requirement for all Idols to have at least one pic of them brushing their teeth in a photobook! After graduating from Nogi in late December 2018 the posts for Nanase continued on at a steady pace until mid-2022 and gave some reasons above why they slowed way down and then ceased. What a busy woman Nanase was up until then but after the Summer of 2022 acting was the only activity she really did and was in a huge amount of dramas. But none since last June though she does have a film coming out in less than two weeks, sure she's made a vast amount of money to allow her to kick back and relax for a while. Nanase has more posts than any woman here and one reason was because she was so busy after leaving Nogi which doesn't happen often with Idols. Being with Nogi meant all member's posts are a bit inflated but not hers compared to others as well over a hundred are solo ones. 

 Nanase's first book was released in February 2015, it was the second photobook for a member. It was a decent seller with about 115,000 copies sold but to be honest thought it was just a so-so book. However to me this is such a fabulous set of photos and it's what an Idol book should be, a mix of regular and gravure pics. Nanase is not as bodacious as other Idols but does have such an 'aura' about her and she's not a woman who needs to dress skimpy to get our attention. Many Nogi fans feel the way I do as this book has come close to selling 200,000 copies, that was also the total sold for her third book which I think is even better than this one! For the photo shoot Nanase traveled to Italy and Malta, Europe used to be a popular destination for Nogi, Keya and Hina books but don't think any recent books have been set there. This book contains 107 pics and was released on October 2, 2016.... though this is Nanase's first post in eons if there are things I can post about her in the future such as being in some magazines or at an event will definitely do a post or two for her.
