Miyuki Watanabe: Another in her endless series of..... 'Who deserves a post more than she does?!!!!'

 

 Every now and again get that strong itch to do a post for someone and it's usually for a massive favorite who hasn't had a post for a while. Obviously you know who my latest itch was for but it's not new dying to have one of these posts for Miyuki and most long time readers of this blog know that. Though it's never been easy to do posts for her this does make four already for the year but she won't top 2024 when Miyuki had eleven posts and that was easily a personal record for her. Can't say last year was more busy than most other years but the activities seemed to be more consistent and there weren't long gaps of her being too idle plus it helped I was able to dig up so many older things that had never been posted before.

 In about thirteen months will begin the countdown for my 'Top Twenty Faves Of All Time' list which will be my third one. Do those every four years as that should be enough time for major changes to happen and it worked out well for those two prior posts. Not thinking about it too much about who will make the list or what their positions could be at this point but will be doing so next Spring and hopefully there will be enough gals for all twenty positions! Even if there are almost every spot will change which happens with every list I create, for example very rarely does one woman finish in the fifth spot on the yearly faves list and fifth the following year too. However the way things stand now there will be a repeater as far as positions go and that would be for Miyuki! She finished in the third spot on that last list done in 2022 and bet that shocked a few of you(!).... perhaps many more than a few! At first that also surprised me but that was the correct choice and if I did that list again today Miyuki would still be in the third spot. She did move up to second for a spell last year but the two above her are a bit more deserving and when you think about how many hundreds of women who have had posts here being third on an all time list is quite impressive!

 This has been a much slower year as far as activities go for Miyuki or at least compared to last year. But have noticed that she tends to be much busier in the second half of a year and have there have been some signs of that happening. Last year Miyuki did finish in the eighth spot on the fave's list but I don't expect a repeat of that this year but do want to see her make the list again though I need her help in doing so. While it hasn't been a busy stretch was still missing doing posts for Miyuki as her last was done on March 24th, for today have a little over thirty brand new pics along with a few oldies that are brand new for here plus some encore photos of years past. So all in all there may be a hundred pics for today and noticed Miyuki's popularity does need a bit of a boost. She's always been well liked here but the past year has seen a decrease in the amount of views her posts get, to me those posts have been bigger and better than ever though one reason could be the lack of new gravure photos which is sadly the biggest reason why other women also see a dip in how many views their posts get.

 Even though most posts for all include older photos that have been in prior posts bet most viewers had never seen them before and at times do wonder how many newbies are checking out a Miyuki post for the first time? There's no way to figure that stat out but it wouldn't surprise me if the % wasn't somewhat high. As far as gravure photos go there hasn't been any since Miyuki released her fourth photobook back in September 2023 and it was to celebrate her 30th birthday. This year it means she'll be hitting the age of 32 and to me Miyuki 😍 looks better than ever, I would love to see her have more(any) gravure photo shoots but then again perhaps it's been her choice for the slowdown with them though in a way have always had the feeling she enjoys doing them. You see so few gravure models over the age of thirty so maybe magazines would rather have a young model than an older gal like Miyuki but to me she outshines every single gal a decade younger than her!!!!

 With the age of 32 rapidly approaching Miyuki is still a single woman though bet the line to be her mate would stretch to Jupiter and back! After SKE my top '48' Idols were from NMB, all of my favorites from the group are still single and all are 28+ in age. Not many new pics for today but have some terrific ones from her IG page, Miyuki posts some fabulous photos there but there's not nearly as many as usual. My top pic is the one in a pink dress and have noticed from posting so many of these IG photos is what a huge movie fan she is and has she ever considered doing any acting?

 In most posts for ex-Idols often include older group cards and I think they look so super duper but there has been a slowdown in cards for current Idols. What helps me in these posts is that for so long rarely included Miyuki's ancient NMB cards in posts so almost all will be brand new for here. Usually work from newest to oldest cards which often means you may never see those really old cards so for today did the opposite as below are July/August cards for 2011-13. Don't have a lot of confidence there will be a post for August but if so there are other kinds of cards such as ones for NMB singles and their Summer tours.

 Since 2020 Miyuki has been an on and off model for the Bijin Hyakka magazine, not many spreads but would have many superb photos at their site. However she hadn't any new pics there since November so thought her gig ended with them. Not so for she did have a new modeling photo which I won't have for today and it was for a two part interview so am thinking those modeling pics will start appearing at their site once again. I truly hope so as Miyuki's pics for them are simply out of this world(!) and all of the ones below are of her from their site after she hit the age of 28 and as mentioned doesn't she look better than ever?!

 What I'm definitely sure of are of new modeling pics for Snidel coming soon, Miyuki once worked with them for about a year back in 2021/22. A few days ago the modeling photos below were added to their site and it being a bit early for Autumn collections think we'll be seeing plenty more of Miyuki for Snidel, she's modeled for so many sites the last five years and wish she would remain with one or more of them beyond their seasonal collections. The bottom three are from a recent photo shoot and will say once again about looking better with each passing day....

 No new magazine spreads for today and it's been over a year since Miyuki's last one, that happens often with older ex-Idols and especially for those who no longer do gravure photos but think she still would do those kinds of photo shoots. So have a pair of older sets for today and why not as most of these golden oldies have been forgotten about or never seen. First up is this set from the June 23, 2013 issue of WPB and this set of pics is now over a dozen years old!!!!

 Other set is another stupendous spread that's from the February 23, 2016 edition of Young Champion, that was six months before her NMB graduation. Miyuki was the cover girl for both issues and she's had that honor so often, a project is now to collect all of her covers and have them all in one post.

 We've hit the end and while there were a lot of pics this seemed to be the quickest post I've done in ages, probably because it featured Miyuki! Who is still my #1 woman 😍 as far as being the most sexy/hottest/desirable/alluring goes and guess I've been saying that about Miyuki for almost a decade now! Some hotter than the Sun women have taken a run at taking away that crown and all have failed, makes me wonder why I've never anointed Miyuki as my all time #1 woman? Miyuki does have her own YT Vlog and did upload a video three weeks ago but that was her first since March, she seemed to take a mini vacation for most of the Spring season. That new video is just so-so so(!) after the pics have my second fave video of hers which is from a 2015 Young Champion photo shoot, couldn't find a video for that above spread. She does have many videos on YT for her older mag spreads and highly recommend checking them out, bet I've viewed those a combined thousand times.... or more!!!!
