Keyakizaka46: The 'Minami Koike post' #3....



 Three times in the past ten days have said I may take the following day off from posting. However have always had a post that next day so perhaps what I should do is say that I will be posting and then not to even things off! Second Keya post in a row and only the second solo one for anyone but Risa in the past five or so months. Have had a long streak with my bigger faves doing a lot of activities but think that's come to an end which isn't a bad thing.
 That's because it gives me time to work on some gals who I do like quite a bit but wouldn't consider them to be huge faves. Minami falls into that category, at one time thought she would take that step into being a much bigger fave but like so many Keya members she's been way too quiet this year. But do have quite a few new pics for today which wasn't hard seeing as Minami hasn't been mentioned in a post since March.
 I've been so lost about her age for about two years now. Her birthday is in November and thought she would be turning 22 this year. Was wrong with that thought as she's just going to be hitting the age of 21, in her birthday post last year even said that b-day was Minami's 21st and don't know why I've been thinking that way since day one. One correct thing I've been saying since day one though is that she's the cutest current Idol by far, really no one else comes close to her.


 In these pics you're going to be seeing different hair styles or should I say color. Minami's real hair is the color black but last year changed to a brownish tint as in the above pic. But at the end of April she became a blonde as I guess she heard they have more fun! But she does keep changing it as you'll see in today's pics, yesterday Keya had a concert and she went back to her original style.
 Doesn't really matter to me as she looks terrific whatever color she chooses but if I had a choice brown would be my preference. Have a little of many things but these pics have taken four months to accumulate, had wanted to do a post for MInami for many months but there just hasn't been many happenings. How about two new pics from Aeon to start off with, they're a credit card company in Japan and will see if I can find her new CM to post at the bottom.



 There were very few pics from April until the end of June on Keya's Diary blog, have a few newish ones and as mentioned her hair color does keep changing.











 Have had these screenshots since February, decided not to recap the show but held on to Minami's. It was from episode #152 of 'Keyakitte' and as you can see the show's theme were how the members slept at night. In all honesty it was quite a lame show.












 Few pics from the 'Za Hitto! Sutajio' radio show, it airs Tuesdays on MBS radio and naturally she's the co-host of the show.









 Minami appears to be such a popular person among the other Keya members, seems she has more pics with everyone than any other gal. Hard to say who her best buddy is but to me it may be this member, now had she many more posts she just may be #2 on my fave Keya members list.








 May make a requirement for all future Keya solo posts to have pics with you-know-who....






 That bottom pic leads into this next set and to Neru was her best friend in Keya. Say was because she graduated a few weeks back, really should try doing a post for her then but like almost everyone else there's been virtually no recent activities.








 That's Rika in the bottom two pics, the trio had a song on the "Glass wo Ware!" single titled "Bathroom Travel", to me it was the best song on the single. Keya used to have a lot of mini subgroups on their singles and their songs were always top notch but don't think there's been any of those groups on the last two singles. Moving on and have some fabulous Keya cards for their Smartphone game, you can tell the bottom one is brand new.









 Keya released their first photobook last November and it was quite a huge seller as it's sold close to 150,000 copies to date. Being a group book meant that most members couldn't have enough pics as was the case here....





 .... but that bottom pic wasn't from the PB but instead an issue of WPB promoting it. That pic of Minami's was second to none and thought to myself what a nice figure she has but you wouldn't know it as she's always dressed so conservatively. But maybe not in the future as on September 25th her first photobook will be coming out, it'll be the eighth one for a Keya member.
 News of it just came out two days ago and am kind of torn about it. On one hand would love to see Minami dressed a little bit more on the sexy side but on the other hand what I've really enjoyed about her is how conservative she is. The pics for the PB were shot in Shanghai and these are some promo ones that have come out though wouldn't be surprised if soon we see some swimming suit pics. Do expect a few more posts in the future so will have any more info in them.




 That next post also hope to have Minami's spread from the Bomb's July issue. Don't have it now but do have some bonus pics from their site.





 Have a brand new spread here from the September issue of BLT, only minus is that she had to share it with a new second generation member.








 Will end off with a fabulous oldie Minami solo set which is from last November a special Flash issue called 'Best of Autumn 2018'. After the pics will have the video for the "Bathroom Travel" song which was mentioned above and it's really a fun video.
