Nao Kanzaki: Nao's 'Top Twenty of All Time Faves' list.... #1!!!! part one






Finally have reached the end of this series which took a bit more work than I thought it would but did enjoy creating all of the posts. Hope Saki being my number one of all time doesn't come as a surprise or shock to anyone as it shouldn't. She was my #1 fave for 2016 and is approaching a hundred posts, really need to work on doubling that figure. To me Saki has to be the most underrated beauty out there, she's also such a fun and smart woman who always had the wittiest things to say at C-ute concerts. There's a few C-ute videos in the upcoming posts but at the top is one of Saki solo performing "Dance de Bakoon!" at her 2018 birthday show.
 This first post will probably be the shortest one of the eight posts celebrating her position as my number one of all time. This could be considered an intro post for the upcoming seven and all are definitely worth at least one view. In order after this are her 'best pics', screenshots from her "Bloom" DVD which may have the top pics. Following them are mag spreads, post five has more screenshots with the final three posts featuring C-ute cards, scans from her "Nakasan" 2013 photobook and the final post has terrific pics from volume 131 of her first appearance in a H!P Digital book.



 That's Saki with #3 on my all time list who you all know for sure, am going to plan on having another 'pairs post' for the unbeatable duo. Sadly could only find one small pic of Saki with the #2 gal on the all time list. Will admit that number two was closing the gap in the past few weeks but she would have never caught #1 whose position may have been my easiest pick of all twenty.


 That was from an interview promoting the 'Junkers' stage play from July of 2012. Back in that year Saki appeared in four plays and she's also been in many of them this year. Pics here are from the 2012 play "Cats Eye" which opened in September.





 Bit of a mix of old and new things for this post, had no idea what this was going to consist of as I'm creating this off the top of my head. Idols seem to appear in many stage plays, that could be because they're so used to performing in front of an audience. Saki has been in three more plays this year with another one opening up in December. Pics here are from the "Engeki: The Ikedaya!" play which ran in April. There's a video of one of the performances and did view it which lasted close to two hours, it was an okay watch but I'm not a big fan of stage plays.












 Heather Diary is a clothing site which features Idols but they only make an appearance for two to four weeks. These sets of pics are from two weeks in December 2016, Saki has promoted a few fashion lines over the years but don't think she's doing that these days.


















 Here's some recent pics which many thought would never happen again. The C-ute members were good friends with each other and deep down don't think we've heard the last of them as a group as it wouldn't surprise me if they performed a couple of special reunion concerts or perhaps that's just wishful thinking on my part.










 Those bottom three pics above are ones from her Instagram account which she doesn't update often enough. These are new pics for here as Saki made a pair of appearances for the Junon magazine's 'Girls Contest', top five are from July 2013 while the others are from July 2014.











 There are a few more new pics and other info for recent Saki happenings but going to hold on to them for now. Don't want to use up everything today as I don't want to wait months before having another post for her. Do promise do have some posts coming up soon with new pics and also am planning on having a few 'golden oldies' posts for her older things which have never been posted. Also the remaining seven posts must have over 500 pics so there's no shortage of things for you to enjoy today. Instead of having a 'greatest hits' set of pics to end the post off have some pics which have never been posted before or are a bit rare. Most are conservative but that's more of Saki's style though you will find many jaw-dropping pics in the other posts, top four are promo ones for the "Engeki: The Ikedaya!" play.
