After going at least seven months without a post for any HKT members or even a group one this is their fourth post in ten days, with any luck will have another one coming up soon. At the top is the full PV for the group's 12th single "Ishi" which comes out on April 10th. They need to start releasing more singles per year, in 2018 they only had one and have never had more than two for one year. The new tune is a fairly decent single, have watched the video a few times and it's gotten better with each listen. There will be five versions of the single, here are the covers and two promo pics.
Rino has the center position for the single which will be her final one with HKT. Her graduation date with them is April 28th, that show will be at the HKT Theater in Fukuoka but think she'll perform once more after that at the AKB Theater. Can't day I was ever a huge Rino fan though have been liking her much more lately, even after she graduates may try to do a few posts for her as she is one very busy Idol though soon to be ex-Idol. On March 27th Rino was at an event for 'Bright Healthy Tea W' and she promotes so many products. The tea is a new one that came out on April 1st and the event was also to promote a few new CM's she did for the tea.
While she was promoting the tea a sextet of members were busy promoting the new "Ishi" single with an interview for the Walker Plus site.
Few of my fave members won't be on the new single such as Sakura. I miss her and so don't a lot of viewers as her posts were always quite popular. As most know she's now a member of the Japanese/Korean Idol group I*Zone and doesn't she look so different these days?
A very underrated beauty to me is Madoka, she had such a superb photobook about three years ago. She will be on the new single but unfortunately hasn't appeared in a mag spread for over a year.
On to the mag spreads, have seven of them(!) but will hold on to two so there can be another group post very soon. Last group post had a few 2018 spreads that were missed, have two for today which will finish the year off and compared to most years there were very few for 2018. First up is from the September issue of EX-Taishu, it features Ayaka Oda and trying to post more about the unknown members who are now at least twenty in age.
Even more Ayaka and this set may be better than the above one. It's from the issue #18 of Young Animal which came out in October.
Another underrated gal is Natsumi Matsuoka, she's not exactly a beauty but there's something about her which is so attracting. She has the first 2019 set which is from the January edition of EX-Taishu.
Rino the last five years has been seemingly everywhere except for appearing in magazines which is very odd. This is her first gravure set since 2017 and even before then there weren't too many. This is definitely one of her best to date which is from the April 8th issue of WPB. First half of the spread are new pics while the second half are a brief look through the years from their issues.
Saved the best for last and this is one of my top ones for 2019 so far. It's from a special Flash edition called 'Best of Winter 2019', it features Aki Toyonaga and is she looking ultra hot or what?!
