Yui Kobayashi: Her new mission is to become the Queen of all other Dimensions(?).....

 

 Still feeling quite a bit under the weather but after completing the below post had a second wind so quickly worked on creating this post and it's going to be yet another in the series of fabulous Yui 😍 posts which will go unnoticed! Even if I was six feet under(!) could probably find a way to do a post for her as they do raise my spirits and are more of these needed to improve my health?! It was exactly one year ago that Yui reached the milestone of a hundred posts and that hasn't happened too often the past five years. Someone did hit that magical number in March and another should by this Autumn but after that it could be a while until the next woman achieves that feat!

 In another semi-feat this makes it seventeen months in a row with a Yui post and she holds the all time record with 22! So to set a new mark need to do a post a month for the rest of 2026 to reach 23 and that should happen quite easily. For Yui will be at a three fashion shows in July and August plus I wouldn't be surprised if she has some new music coming out this Summer. Then in September will have her post for the position she'll be finishing at on the All Time Faves list and then there will certainly be a post in October for her 27th birthday! So that would make 21 months consecutive months with a post so unless I drop dead bet the mortgage she'll be setting a new record, if I do keel over hope it's when I'm writing up a post for Yui!!!!

 A year ago didn't think Yui 😍 had a shot at being #1 on the upcoming 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' list but she's pulled away from her top rival(!) and there's zero doubt she'll top that All Time list!!!! It's not that the past year has been her best, to me 2022 was Yui's top year for activities, but the fact she's been so consistently busy since early 2025 and every post has at least forty new pics plus some golden oldies. I've always said that doing posts for Yui 😍 could be my favorite thing about blogging and I enjoy doing them more than ever, especially because for a while in 2024 thought she may have retired! Thank goodness that never happened and what I've been noticing is how much happier Yui looks at events and the tone of her IG messages. Since beginning this post I've been feeling even better and especially in my mind, now if I could just find a way to make Yui's posts just a tad more popular....

 Even before Yui graduated from Keya(Sakura) in February 2024 I had noticed she decreased her activities and didn't seem to be having all that much fun in her final months as an Idol. Then when she took that six month hiatus until late August 2024 so many depressing things began to consume my thoughts, would I have continued this blog if she hadn't returned? Hmmmm, sure the answer is yes but would have been down in the dumps for so long and once before Yui had taken a three month hiatus in late 2021 to clear her mind. Which did work as the next year was her busiest to date and after her second return in August 2024 it's almost seemed as though Yui has become more confident and happier than ever.... wonder if any of that has been of her reading all of the gushing I do about her here???? Gulp, no doubt she's figuring out the shortest route from her place to mine.... a hint is to go SW when you hit Greenland!

 Have a little bit of many things and bet the odds are close to nil we'll ever see another photobook from Yui but least the pair she had while with Keya were truly remarkable. When you gape at a photo like the one above or the others in the post can never understand why Yui is so unpopular with you viewers. First off are these very old promo cards for the 'Keya Kise' game which ended in 2020 and to me may have been the best cards of any '46' group. But am running out of cards that haven't been posted before, have some for her birthday and Christmas but that may be it for these game cards which isn't a negative as it means I can work harder trying to discover other things that would be new for here.

 Not many have better IG photos than Yui but have moaned often that there aren't more of them. Have a Baker's Dozen below of new pics and that amount I can live with, especially with how terrific they are! You can see some mini posts for those Summer fashion shows and also a few pics were from a May 31st fan club event where she had a mini concert and that's an impressive number of fans. Was just noticing that they still use Yui's old Keya photos for such events and isn't it time for that to change?

 I'm guilty as charged in that photo right above, am running so low with million yen notes to include in those envelopes! Yui was in a 2020 drama that had nothing to do with Keya, then she was in a pair of other shows in 2021/23 that featured members of the other two '46' groups. After a three year gap she landed the co-starring role in the short film "My Grief" and hope to see her in more things that will garner her more exposure. There's a newish independent film group called "2045" that has done a variety of other shorter films. On May 29th their latest project was released that featured three half hour movies combined into an omnibus with "My Grief" being one of them. I really don't know anything about the film and may never as it's one of those under the radar movies but there's nothing wrong with those save for the fact they're so difficult to locate. Below are some pics from the movie and it's May 29th premiere, there are more after this.

 On June 11th Yui attended another event for the "My Grief" film and she really is looking so fabulous these days but has there ever been a time she hasn't? After the pics is a one minute video that's a trailer for all three of the films, "My Grief" is the second movie on the video.

 

 Did just say that Yui looks more fabulous than ever and here's more proof of that with these brand new modeling pics from the andGirl site. She's been a model for them since March 2023 but hadn't done much of that work this year but ten of these terrific photos came out last month.

 For almost five years or until June 2023 Yui was a model for the With site and magazine. I've posted so many hundreds of modeling pics from them but there's still a few that have been missed. It being June let's go back five years to 2021 for this mini spread for that year's sixth month, there was only four pages but there had been a special interview at their site that month which are the other seven magnificent photos....

 Will end off with some beyond perfect alluring photos of Yui,😍 know most have been seen before but I can never get tired of them and keep hoping they'll garner her a few new fans which seems to never work out. Yousti is the stage name Yui uses for her musical career and there's also a YT channel featuring her videos. There's a new one after the pictures which was uploaded eight days ago and it's of her with her troupe of dancers doing another PV for her "Game of Life" single. That was released at the end of March and Yousti's first mini album came out last August so wonder if there will be any new release to celebrate her first anniversary as a solo artist?
