Mai Shinuchi: Just because I.... 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚, 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚, 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚 𝒘𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒐 𝒅𝒐 𝒂 𝒑𝒐𝒔𝒕 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒉𝒆𝒓.... edition #𝘵𝘰𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵!

 

 That heading is right on the money and I've been wanting to do a post so badly for so long yet it hasn't been possible. However when you're one of my all time favorites, not just a regular huge fave but one of those in the extreme highest level even when there's so few new things to post about that won't stop me! Two days ago did briefly mention how stubborn I was when it came to posting about certain women and to me it's a positive. While the amount of women I can post about keeps dwindling least most of my ultra massive faves have been getting a fair share of posts. I sometimes wonder for how long will the posts for some women continue? For instance Mai will be hitting the age of 34 in January, an even bigger fave of mine will be celebrating her 34th birthday in five weeks. Have said numerous times how I much prefer doing posts for those women 30+ in age but it is tougher for they appear in so fewer magazines, very few have photobooks or as many modeling pics so while many do remain busy they're not activities you can include in posts.

 For so long that pic above in a yellow dress was my top one of Mai's 😍 and can't give a solid reason why! She does have many other photos that are more sultry and revealing but from that first second I gaped at that pic was hooked. It's no longer my number one pic of her but it's still among my favorites. This is Mai's first post since June, it's her fifth for 2025 so one more and she will reach six which is how many are needed to be eligible for the yearly faves list. But would love to hit eight by the end of November as I want to see her make the list for the fifth consecutive year, only one other current woman can match that and in 2022 she did hit her high of fifth on the list!

 Hopefully Mai can stretch that streak to five years, there will an appearance on this year's list of a former first generation member and it will be her first time ever making the list! So least one ex-Nogi gal will make it and I'm thinking Mai may squeeze into the tenth position, she's one of the few women (five?) who I check up on every day to see if there's new activities or news so she is someone who is constantly on my mind even though her posts have dwindled this year. Next year at this time will be wrapping up the third 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' list and on the prior one done in 2022 she was in the twelfth spot, did that surprise anyone? Mai will take a giant leap as she will move into the top eight, if her activities can increase over the next year then a top five position could happen! Not number one though but if things had worked out differently she may have been in the battle to be my #1 of all time! When you think about how many hundreds of women have I posted about, wonder if it could be a thousand? I'm not going to count but for Mai or anyone to make my top ten of all time is quite an accomplishment and have noticed how my top ten is probably very different than you viewers.

 Sigh, how I would love to have that above photo made into one that could fit on a twenty foot wall, wow!!!! Hmmmm, then again the real thing at 65 inches would be better 😍 and at times do wonder if any women have read the posts I've done for them? I have no idea on that but many seem to surf the internet for their hobby and Japan by far has more views than any country at this blog. First off are some Mai photos from the "Maidoari" aka Mai Welcomes radio show which is an Apple podcast. Radio shows in Japan seem to be much popular than those in America, in all honesty I can never recall listening to any nor any station for their music. For her last six years in Nogi Mai hosted the extremely popular 'All Night Nippon' show and even though she graduated a successor took her place. Since then radio hosting has continued and she currently co-hosts another show but I'd like to see her do more 'live' work. About two years ago she was in this web drama and while not subbed was quite cool and easy enough to follow, wish she did more projects such as that and the murder/mystery mini drama also featured an ex-HKT member.

 Hmmmm, is she telling me above that being my Number One on the next All Time Faves list is her ultimate goal?! Sure hope so and I am open to being bribed.... and money doesn't have to be involved! 😍 One thing Mai only does a fair job at is uploading pics to her IG page, there's only a few below and some are from the above radio show. Mai does have a fan club and like most others that do posts most of her photos and news about activities there. 

 Mai League is the name of her fan club which you can see above. That's it for recent new photos as she hasn't appeared in a magazine or event for some months now nor has done any modeling work, still can't understand why a fashion site wouldn't sign her up? If fans recall Mai used to be an OL at the Sony main office and did that gig along with being a member of Nogi for a few years, eventually being an Idol won out! But she does seem to have many female fans out there so why not model OL clothing, she has for two other sites but those ended some years back. So while there's not many recent pics have plenty that may be new for here and I do enjoy working at older things that had never been posted. Such as Nogi cards and I do have quite a hefty batch of them for Mai which I've slowly been getting to over the years. For some women have been posting their cards for a decade so have used them all up, not her which is why most cards you see in these posts are brand new for here. Such as these Nogi Summer Tour cards for 2015/16, the city where they performed are on the cards.

 It being September have plenty of old cards for the month which go from 2015-2018 and how about those for 2018.... WOWOWOW!!!! Mai has always looked fabulous but right around 2017 when she was 25 in age she really began to blossom and though not many agree with me there are very few out there who can top Mai's looks or her demurely seductive way....

 Like many other women I do posts for in a way Mai looks best attending events, she has this classy yet down to earth style about her(charisma?) so she comes off so likable around others. Bet many women also do but have a feeling their aura could be an act but not for Mai and she was more respected by the other Nogi members over anyone else.... didn't plan on doing so much gushing but when it comes to Mai 😍.... sigh, gulp. But we haven't seen her at an event for a while so hope she's reading this and will do some in near future to bring a smile to my fave. Below are some photos from the February 29, 2020 'Tokyo Girls Collection' Spring show and a date such as that doesn't happen every year! To appear at those shows a woman needed to be a model for some site or fashion line, back then Mai was a model for the andGirl magazine which ended in September 2020.

 Wasn't going to but will include some photos from the andGirl site that came out in the second half of 2019. Was talking about doing modeling for OL attire and while some at my office look good if one ever looked 1% as perfect as Mai not sure I would ever get any work done.... hmmmm, my daydreaming about Idols already makes sure my work is less than anyone else!!!!!!!

 No new magazine spreads for today and will also pass on doing any older ones. Instead will have 22 photos from Mai's first and only digital book "Evolution" that came out in June 2022 which was a little over four months after her Nogi graduation. Did post this mini book once but it was so long ago and sure most have forgotten about it. The book contained 44 photos, have 22 below and the other 22 will be in her next post. As you've seen in many voice actress books they don't have to contain a lot of gravure pics to be fabulous, Mai looks so amazing in these photos so why no books since then?

 After this final set of pics is a video for the above spread and it's one of my favorites from her. Did so much gushing about Mai so will end off with some flawless photos of her, if things had been different a few years ago perhaps she would have been in my running to be my all time #1 woman! But perhaps a different honor is even better for how many times have I said if there was one woman here who I would want as a girlfriend Mai 😍 would win that going away!!!!
