Nogizaka46: The invigorating and massive 'A little bit of this and that for 2019' #14....
Will start off for a change with Kazumi as even though there's so many happenings for today none of them involve her. What a shame as she's always been on my top five fave members list and has been since day one of me becoming a Nogi fan. Then again think the other four have all departed and let's hope that won't be happening for her for a while. So many Nogi members are models for mags or sites along with appearing at the many huge fashion shows but that's not the case with her.
As hard as it is to believe no company has signed up Kazumi to be a model for them and to me the question is why? She's such an attractive gal and think I enjoy her looks so much as she doesn't fit the image of an Idol. If you're hoping to hear some news on Nogi's 24th single there will be none as I don't plan on ever discussing it nor will have any pics about it. Am just so disgusted at how young this lineup is and I hate following a group of little girls which to me Nogi is slowly becoming. But there are many older members who are still around that have remained faves of mine and have plenty of their pics for today.
Next up for my drama viewing will be season two of "Kakegurui", really enjoyed the first one though the second season is just five episodes. Will be starting on it in about two days and Sayuri is new to the cast and really curious to see what her character is all about. Didn't read any reviews or such for this season as not to spoil it.
More Sayuri pics as last Saturday she was at the Summer 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show that was held in Toyama, she was representing Lowrys Farm. She is a member who is getting older as on August 27th she'll be hitting the age of 27 and think she looks better than ever these days.
Also at the TGC show was Minami, she's just twenty but has really zoomed up on my Nogi faves list. She may not be the most bodacious gal in Nogi but to me she's currently the sexiest, hope you won't get tired of Minami as there's plenty more pics of her coming up. As you can see she took two strolls on the catwalk, the first batch by far are the better pics.
More Minami as yesterday she was at a press conference where a new campaign to battle hepatitis was announced. The campaign is to urge the public to get tested for the disease and think there may be a video of the event to post which is rare. With her was Hina who is a first generation member and is easy to overlook as she seems to be a permanent Undergirl. To me it's a bit surprising that in January she'll just be turning 22, thought she would have been much older.
One of my huge faves celebrated a b-day two weeks ago as Hinako turned 23, she's someone you'd think would be a bit younger. Was reading today that there's some new video game that's out with her as their lead character, will have more info on that soon as I'd like to do more investigating. No new mag spreads but have some from Nogi's 'No' radio show which features a revolving door of hosts. That show aired last Sunday and think she's exaggerating about the cake..... but the couch again!
Nogi's most popular radio host is Mai who right now is second on my faves list, will eventually get around to compiling all of her 2019 pics for a pair or more of posts. These pics are from last week's show which was also featured on 'Showroom'.
Mai just looks so fabulous to me, know the odds of her having a second photobook are slim but what us fans wouldn't give to see #2, she's also Nogi's oldest member as she'll be turning 28 in January. She's also an exclusive model for three mags, one of them is andGirl and have some tremendous new pics from their site.
Speaking of mags just have to for today as there's been a real slowdown this month but sure it will pick back up. First off is the eternal Undergirl Rena and it's rare to see her have a solo set but she usually does look good in them. She turned 22 last May and at 164 cm is one of Nogi's taller gals, this batch is from volume 133 of Marquee.
A second generation member who I've always liked is Miria, she finally got promoted to being a Senbatsu member for the 23rd single but sadly went back to being an UG for the new one. Of the first and second generation members she's the shortest one at 152 cm, Idols are usually on the short side and this superb set is from the September of Bubka.
If you need some calendars for your desktop have a pair for August and September, seems like the ninth month will be my fave one for the year....
Always end these posts off with the top pics of the day which are normally a mag spread. Very few lately so will end off with these pics which are better than most mag spreads. Once again we have more Minami and who can ever get tired of her? She's an exclusive model for With Online and models OL attire, two other members are also with With but very few new pics. After them have a very short video of yesterday's event featuring her.
