First Sayaka solo post for this year though she has been in two NMB mag spread posts. Main reason is that up until July Sayaka was so quiet and for the most part so weren't most gals from the group even though they did have a single in April. Don't know how many have heard the news but Sayaka is finally going to graduate from NMB, her final concert will be on October 27th but she will have a theater performance on November 4th.
It's one of the few predictions I got halfway right, predicted her graduation last year though thought it would be in July when she turned 25. Wonder what's going to become of NMB after she leaves, there are some popular members but Sayaka has been the main face of the group for so many years. The sales of their singles have been dropping steadily over the years and will probably drop even more so now that she won't be there except for her final single.
Enjoy those pics while you can as it's been over a year since Sayaka has done any gravure spreads and surprisingly she looks better with her more mature image. For a while her looks had gone a bit downhill in my opinion but the last year or so her face has become much more attractive, also like her hair longer as it is now.
NMB's 19th single was released yesterday and at the top is the PV for the song which already has well over two million views. For some reason their PV's are always on YT while very few of the other '48' groups have an official one there. Name of the tune is "Boku Datte Naichau yo" and as expected Sayaka has the center position for her final single. Sure it'll be their highest selling single in years, while the sales have gone way down thought their last two singles were their best in years.
This will be a fairly huge post but am holding back a few mag spreads and other things, saving them for a post or two for her final NMB shows. Sayaka will naturally remain in the music field, she's already released two solo albums and while she comes off as a hard rocker her songs are just okay as I wish she would rock out a bit more and know that she can. She's also going to be writing a column for the Skream! music magazine. Few recent blog and Instagram pics here, there's actually way too many to post and really like the top one.
Sayaka is a semi-exclusive model for Smart magazine though she doesn't appear in all of their issues. There are some pics at their site which I'll keep aside for her next post(s). Two small spreads from the mag today with the first four pics being from their March edition, will have some oldies in these posts as it's her first solo one for this year. After those are five pages from the July issue and there's no way those pics could be left out as what a partner she shares the spread with! Sayaka was a huge C-ute fan and said she attended so many of their shows though have never seen her perform one of their songs which would be a pleasant surprise at a solo concert.
One more set of pics from Smart and these are from their October issue.
Will take a brief pause with the spreads as sure many want to view some of her 2018 NMB cards.
Back to the mag spreads and there are so many new ones because of Sayaka's impending graduation, really hope she doesn't take a long break like too many Idols do when they leave their groups. Small set but she does share the cover with an NMB mate for the October 9th edition of Flash.
This is from the current issue of WPB which is #44, brief look back at her NMB days.
Another cover for Sayaka and this much bigger set is from the October 23rd Young Champion.
This will make seven spreads and am holding a pair back for the next post. Once again Sayaka has the cover of a mag, it's the second time this year she's had one for Tokyo Walker Plus and these are from their October 11th issue. It's the biggest set for today and Sayaka is really looking so fine these days, to me a woman usually looks better once they get a bit older and she is 25 now. After the pics check out an oldie video and what a trio she makes with my two fave ex-NMB members.
