Miyu Kishi: Her astonishing WPB 'Konna hi ga kuru nante' digital book plus two new magazine spreads!

 


 Going to be impossible to top the below post which may contain my all time #1 photobook but the show must go on!!!! I really don't care that much about hair color and most of the woman I post about have the same color which is a dark. Miyu looks so yummy with her regular colored hair but from about August of 2023 and for a while in the first half of 2024 she did have that reddish tint above and to be honest wish she had kept that style for a while longer. This makes it three posts for a BababaBambi member in the last week and have said a few times how the posts for them tend to come in bunches. But not so for Miyu the last fourteen months as this has only been her third post in that stretch and can't give any reason why she's had so few. Though then again it is harder to do posts these days for current J-Pop Idols but seeing as how this post truly does have some astonishing new photos we can forgive her for the lack of mag spreads and books over the last year though....



 A few days ago was musing in a post about doing a list of my favorite tall women, that had been suggested a while ago by a viewer. That would be an interesting post to do but perhaps an even better one would be for my fave 'shortish women', say those 150 cm and less. At just shy of 146 cm Miyu is the shortest woman I've ever done posts for and you can tell she's not tall by her pics. Even though she may not have anyone else in those photos you can just tell how short she is but that's not a negative from me at all, that goes for the other shorter gals who I do posts for. BababaBambi has two other members that are 150 cm and shorter plus there are so many other Idols from over the years. That does sound like a coolish kind of list but wonder if some may think of it being negative or an oddity, I certainly wouldn't so need to mull things over for a while. There's quite a few terrific gals I like that are 150 cm and though there would be much jostling for positions #1 by a country mile would be Minami Sengoku who stands just shy of 150 cm. When I did my first ever 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' list exactly seven years ago she finished in the second position! Sure that shocked a few viewers and had Minami's activities not decreased after 2017 she would have been my all time number one woman!



 Don't know how many would be eligible for that list, would think over twenty and have never thought about it too much. Lot of voice actresses are on the shorter side too, after that ex-Up Up Girls member think in the second spot would be another ex-Idol who was with NMB, Miyu may finish in about the fifth position on that list. It's nice to ponder who may make my top ten but in all honesty doubt if I would ever create it. Besides what the heading says have one other set of new pics which are these from Miyu's IG page, not really that many when you consider I went back five weeks. The bottom ones are from August 11th and from a show in Shibuya, it was the final concert for BabababaBambi's Summer tour. For a while thought they may disband by the end of the year as their Familia agency sister group #2i2 will be doing so but after a break from this tour their Winter one starts up in November. 














 BababaBambi does put on such a fun and energetic show, there's so much energy most of their concerts are only 90 or so minutes. I've seen at least five of their shows and perhaps the total is closer to ten, Miyu is the center for most songs and wish the group had more recorded singles/albums. On to the pair of new magazine spreads with this first one being from a special Bomb Summer edition called 'Bomb Premium', they put out a few of these special issues a year. This one featured a few other faves of mine including an HKT member who is only 150 cm in height and she was the cover girl. Am referring to Miku so she too would be way up there on that list for favorite shortish women, she was my #1 Queen here for 2024!








 That above set was released on July 28th, this next spread came out two days later. There is a new magazine on the block which is called Parade, this set is from their first issue so it has to be an honor for Miyu to be one of the few women chosen to be in this semi-historical occasion! Miyu has been with BababaBambi since they were formed in the Spring of 2020, she was nineteen in age at the time and next February will be celebrating birthday #25.












 We've hit the end and wrapping things up will be this sweltering WPB digital book that was released on April 21st and contains 58 photos, it's been her only digital book of the year to date. This book features outtake pics from Miyu's photo sessions with the magazine, she's had only one solo cover to date and it was with the magazine back in October 2022 but she has shared the cover at least three other times with other BababaBambi members. After the pics is a shortish video to promote the book, highly recommend viewing it as there is such a shortage of Miyu gravure videos....
