Suzuka Tomita: Who better to end July with?!!!!

 

 Whewwww(!), aren't those two photos above too terrific to describe and both could be in the running to be my top pic of the year! Don't have any official list of those but in the back of my tiny mind do keep track to an extent of what my top photos are, especially my all time photos. Though this is has been a much slower year for posts seems the quality of photos like those above is higher than ever, more that are similar will end the post but those will be impossible hard to top! I don't know have a 'Chip on my shoulder' so wouldn't talk about how I was right or that many have now jumped on the Bandwagon but will boast about that slightly here and why not as it's never happened before.... hmmmm, or has it? Right at the end of 2021 did Susuka's first ever solo post, then had thirteen more by the time 2024 ended plus mentioned her often in Hina group posts. However for those fourteen solo posts Suzuka had become the least popular current J-Pop Idol here, perhaps ever and that did baffle me!

 She does have some fans here as we would joke about her unpopularity plus how she would never be a candidate for Mensa. I don't really care how many views a post receives as I will always do them for the women I like immensely but of course hope the view count is high, Suzuka's posts for years drew so few views. That does happen for actresses or Idols who don't have gravure photos though if you ask me those could be the best posts here! But for solo post #15 there were finally a few gravure pics for Suzuka which are promo ones for her first photobook and that post done six weeks ago was extremely popular. Wish it didn't have to come down to having photos such as those to draw attention to a woman but least Suzuka finally did get a few of you viewers to notice her and because of that the amount of views for her older posts have risen slightly.

 So my kind of subtle I told you so is that many may have finally noticed how attractive Suzuka is plus if you dig into her past posts will find out what an interesting and fun woman she is. I have liked her so much for over four years now and even if Suzuka never had a photobook it wouldn't have bothered me in the least. But will have to confess that the advance pics from the book are truly mind boggling, knew she probably had a sizzling figure but not as scorching as it is! Off on a mini tangent here and that does happen often when I ramble, many times a thought just pops into my head. When you add up all of the generations from the three '46' groups there are fourteen of them, my favorite generation was Nogi's second. The first for Keya was darn close to them but may have to say slightly better was Hina's second generation which of course Suzuka is a part of. But as much as I adore her she's only my third fave 2G member behind Miku and Konoka, their two books were utterly amazing and can Suzuka's top those? That's a good question and I'm dying to find out, who also had a fabulous book was Hina Kawata and just remembered she turned 24 in age a week ago.... least these mini tangents are a bit interesting....

 Er, talking about her lack of Mensa qualifications and that's spread outside of Hina(!).... remember back over six years when they were still part of Keya and known as Hiragana46? As her scant few fans know at the beginning of May Suzuka announced her graduation, her farewell concert took place about five weeks ago. But she's still a Hina member as her section on the group blog is still active and she still does post though not as often. In a week Suzuka's first and probably last photobook will be released, after that is when she'll probably be an official Hina graduate. It does seem odd her book would come out six weeks after her final group concert but there were two other graduate books that came out in March and April so management wanted to space those out a bit. Now the entire first generation is gone which sadly means the 2G gals will be rapidly departing too and why can't more Idols stay with their groups until they're 27+ in age? For now don't think Suzuka has any definite plans for her future but that's okay as she had a concert a few days ago which I will talk about further on down, plus she has the book coming out and why not take it a bit easier for a stretch of time?

 The posts won't be ceasing for Suzuka as I do adore her to no end 😍 so will keep following her career. In about 2-3 weeks will have another post with pics from the event for her book plus she does have a magazine spread coming out in two days and also have a few other tidbits for that post. That last post was just done 6 1/2 weeks ago but bet there's close to seventy new pics for today with the first batch being Hina monthly message pics. On the first of the month there's a new member photo added to the group page so July could be her final month.

 You will notice that in some photos, say ones over six months old, Suzuka has longish hair and to me she looked perfect with that length! However her level of perfection has even risen much higher with her shorter hair and hard to explain why but her attractiveness is off the charts! Next up are some Hina group cards from earlier this year, have another similar sized batch for her next post and hopefully there will be some for her graduation. The first six are for New Year's while the others are for Hina's 13th single "Sotsugyo Shashin Dakega Shitteru" that came out at the end of January, Suzuka had a solo song on the single titled "Suzuka" and wonder if she will try to make it as a solo artist? One Keya member is attempting to do so and will have a post for her within the week.

 Not as many IG photos as usual but have plenty of A++++ ones for today! Four are from her June 27th graduation and contrary to what you may have heard the first two pics don't feature the only thing left from Suzuka's first vehicle! As Hina followers know she is a huge Formula One racing fan and learned today she got that from her mother which is one reason she was named Suzuka! In 2023/24 she had been a co-host for a racing show but not sure if she's still doing that as she used to have many pics from the show at her IG page but there haven't been any for a while.

 There are a few pics with her best mate Konoka above who appeared at Suzuka's July 23rd show 'One Last Live', I had wanted to see the pair perform one last time together but couldn't find the video. There's a good reason for that which is because the concert is airing on MTV Japan on August 24th. So I'm looking forward to that and hope the concert title doesn't mean it's her last time performing live. The mini eleven song show took place at the Tachikawa Stage Garden in Tokyo, at it Suzuka did some Hina tunes and also a few covers. There was a regular band there so hope she rocked out a bit on some songs, maybe it's just me but doesn't it seem there's less Rock in J-Pop tunes these days?

 Did say Suzuka's next post would be in 2-3 weeks so I may not have any more details about the above show. So I'll either wait an extra week before doing that post or cross my fingers that a lot happens and there can be two more upcoming posts! Sure there will be some interviews coming out in the next week for the book which will be released on August 5th, have the link to one with Yahoo Japan. It took place on July 22nd and the above concert took place the next day, Suzuka did discuss that, racing and the book in the interview. The photos below are from the site and aren't those some utterly tremendous pics.... they sure are and I'm getting sad with so many of my favorite Idols leaving their groups and seems there's so few left who I really like, sigh.... Yahoo Japan site

 In two days there will be a new Suzuka magazine spread coming out featuring pics from the book, that will be in her next post and maybe there will be others(?). So let's go back in time for a pair of oldies, bet many have never seen either for as I moaned about her posts have been so unpopular! To me these kinds of pics are so terrific and though her gravure pics are so dazzling there's nothing wrong with photos such as these. First off is this set from the June 2022 issue of Bomb, Suzuka had the back cover and that may be her only solo cover.

 Other spread for today is from the June 2023 edition of Entame and a Hina mate(Miku) did have the cover. Suzuka had a fair amount of solo spreads from 2020-23 but they slowed down two years ago though not just for her but so many other Idols.

 Will end off here and there's one week to go until the release of her first and only photobook, Australia was once again the setting for a '46' book. In Suzuka's previous post had a few promo pics for it and have even more for today, the first four are the covers. Photos five to seven plus the final one are certainly cold shower inducing ones and I'm kind of in Seventh Heaven, whew!!!! After the outstanding pics is possibly her final video ever with her 2G mates from Hina and this was streamed three days ago. There's only four members left now that Suzuka has departed, she and the quartet had a Yakiniku party which was kind of fun but wished it was subbed. At one time videos such as this would get subbed but very few of them of these days....
