Nao Kanzaki: 'Top Twenty Faves list for 2017' #16....?



 That top pic is one of my faves of the year, actually that Young Jump spread it's from is one of the top sets for 2017. First time for Ayaka making a list which is a positive achievement but there is one negative. That's of her position which I was hoping would be much higher, had this list been created at the end of June #5 would have been her spot. But Ayaka has been a bit too quiet the second half of this year, not that she's disappeared but from March to June she was everywhere it seemed and must have had five huge posts for her in that stretch.


 Gulp, that's not a shabby pic either!!!! But since posting about an Ayaka event in late June she's had only one or perhaps two posts since then. One big reason is that in August she graduated from Seventeen magazine, she had been with them for over five years. At the big fashion shows like 'Girls Awards' or 'Tokyo Girls Collection' Ayaka would take strolls on the catwalk for them and usually more than any model at one of those shows.
 But seeing as how she's not with them any more that may stopped her appearing at those shows. Wonder why she didn't receive a special invitation from the people running them as she's one of the more popular models if not most popular gal at those shows. Did a massive post for the Seventeen graduation event and kind of easy to see why Ayaka was flirting with being in my top five.






 Aren't too many new pics since that graduation ceremony which took place at the end of August but have a few recent things. Ayaka may have also wanted a break too, she turned 21 back in June and has been so busy since 2010 so guess she was deserving of an extended vacation. Just a few of them but these are brand new from yesterday as Ayaka attended the '2017 BULGARI Avrora' awards show, she wasn't up for any awards but was there as a special celebrity guest.






 Of the hundreds of models and Idols who have appeared at 2017 fashion shows no woman has topped how Ayaka has looked at them and I really emphasize that fact. That's why it's been a bit disappointing not seeing her at recent shows, had she been her position on this year's list would have been so much higher.





 Those bottom two pics are from a 25ans wedding event which took place at the end of June, after that is when her extended vacation seemed to begin. Ayaka appears in many of their mags though sadly not every month, these are brand new ones for the 25ans Autumn wedding collection.





 Think I prefer women who aren't that into social media and most of my top twenty seem to be of gals who are that way. Ayaka does upload many pics to her Instagram site but doesn't have a Twitter account nor a blog. These are from her Instagram account, that tip pic is so breathtaking....











 One somewhat recent mag spread which is from the October edition of Mina.





 Not the greatest top twenty post I've ever done but it did turn out to be much better than expected. Few greatest hits pics to end off with, no video after the pics as one thing that's sorely missing from Ayaka is a must watch video as many are quite good but none could be considered a classic.
