Nao Kanzaki and a few friends: Nogizaka46: A little of this and that for 2015 #12

Welcome to my humble site....

Hajimemashite minna san....welcome to my site on my fave Japanese Pop Culture likes such as dramas, movies, magazine scans, promo events etc. Mainly concentrate on my faves...Risa Watanabe... Kyoko Saito... Yui Kobayashi....Miyuki Watanabe.... Nene Shida.... if you're a fan at all of any of them then you've come to the right place(!) but many others are featured here besides them. Do mainly quick reviews on things I've watched, try to make the reviews brief, quick to read through with not too many spoilers, just whether they're good or bad and why I thought so plus whether you may find them enjoyable. Many, many screenshots are included from everything I've watched plus any video trailers if they're available. Hope you find something that interests you, don't hesitate to comment, arigato gozaimasu!

Nogizaka46: A little of this and that for 2015 #12

Have no clue yet what the sales for "Inochi wa Utsukushii" in it's second week have been but have heard that it's still selling well, looks like the group may surpass it's sales from it's 10th single which sold 616,000 copies. Also with the single reaching #1 on the Oricon charts that give them 10 straight number one singles, only AKB and SKE have more as far as female groups go.
Not too many new mag spreads but once again as the title says do have a bit of everything. Sayuri and Nanami are now models for the CanCam mag and should be appearing in all their monthly issues, first one they were in is the brand new issue for May.

Have been hoping for a while that Misa would appear in more mags as she truly is dazzling in my eyes, nice spread here with her along with Marika from the April issue of Bomb.

Last mag spread and it's actually an add-on from a previous post done about two weeks ago. BLT has a special mag each Spring for Idols graduating from high school, posted some of Erika's pics from her spread but forgot to include these.

Mai, Nanami and Reika from a new interview for Natalie.

The last few Springs the group has had a limited time "Nogizaka Cafe" and this year is no different as five members attended the opening day of it which was on March 27th. The cafe is located in Harajuku but it being a limited time cafe it's only going to be open until May 10th.

The third 'Mai' in the group certainly pales in comparison, least in popularity, to the other two but Shinuchi which is her last name if you didn't know attended the above cafe event on the 27th, on the same day she was at another opening event which was for the Plaza Harajuku.
