Nogizaka46: A little bit of this and that for 2019 #9....
Bit of a small post but it's been four days since the last Nogi one and didn't want viewers to go into any kind of withdrawal. Starting off with Nanami again and there's a good reason for that. Her second photobook which came out on February 20, 2017 has done something very unlikely. Last week it was the sixth best seller(!), why would something like that happen? It sold 2,454 copies to push the overall total to about 105,000 copies sold. Every now and again there's been rumors about Nanami returning to the entertainment industry, wonder if that was the reason for the book's resurgence?
The "Kakgurui" movie had it's premiere yesterday, Sayuri is in it along with appearing in the second season but wasn't at the premiere for some unknown reason. However she will be the cover gal of a mag coming out next week and also has some new pics at the CanCam site.
But Nogi was represented at the movie's premiere by the graduate Marika. She was a member who I really liked a lot, she left Nogi at the end of 2017. Will be doing another post for the film and will have many pics of her in it. If you ask me she's really looking super duper these days.
Title of Nogi's fourth album is 'Ima ga Omoide ni Naru Made". First weeks sales set a record with 433,000+ copies sold and easily topped the charts. In it's second week it dropped to the fourth position with sales close to 37,000 which makes the two week total 470,000 copies sold, should set another record for total sales. Have been having member pics from the album and today have five gals. Their names are in the pics and today's feature all Undergirls.
If you need a desktop calendar for May may I suggest this one which features Sayuri.
Last magazine post had a huge spread from Young Magazine #22 though forgot to have these four pages. Hinako is one of the quartet and she's been in so many mags recently.
There's just one new regular spread for today though it is quite large and there are two members. Bet for 2019 Yuki has appeared in more mags than any other members, she has the first set and is also the cover girl for the June edition of Entame.
Team captain Reika was someone who we didn't see have a solo spread for such a long time. But she's had two this past month with this set also being from the same Entame issue and will say this is best set in a few years as she really looks oki doki.
