Keyakizaka46: 2019 Magazine scans #2(!) plus more....


 Whew, a pic like that one is guaranteed to bring in viewers and that's definitely one of my top ten pics of the year. That's Minami and you'll be seeing that pic again at the bottom as it's part of a new mag spread featuring her. Had wanted to do another solo post for Minami as her last one has been extremely popular but there just weren't enough pics and didn't want to hold on to that one above for too long.
 This is the first Keya group post since March though there's been 22 solo ones since then. What a quiet year it's been for the group though individually the members have been very busy. The lineup for their ninth single has been announced but what hasn't been announced are any other details such as when will it come out? The group has had only one other single this year and they better watch out as their sister group may eclipse them in popularity. Least there's been a few photobooks this year, four to date and with the above one which member had the most alluring pic of the year?



 That's a tough call, my choice is with Risa but you can't go wrong with any of them. Nothing with her for today but hopefully will have another post for her soon. Lack of group events as the members have only appeared at one major one in five months, kind of miss doing posts for them. There are a few other members who you won't see today who I do like quite a bit and events are sometimes the only place you get to see them. But there are a core of four members who appear at every huge fashion show, they're the only four affiliated with any kind of site or magazine. Such as Yui who has a birthday coming up and these pics of her are from the September 7th 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show, also a few group pics from the Aeon stage.












 More pics of her from the September 28th 'Girls Award' show, also a few with Mizuho.


















 Have more Mizuho here from the June 26th issue of Weekly Shonen. First had this set in a Yuuka solo post which was so heavily viewed, think everyone prefers solo posts versus group ones. Just in case you missed the spread have it again.

















 Here's a pair of members you don't see too often here, the gals are Rika O. and Nijika with these sets of solo pics being from the November issue of Entame.













 The cover girl for the Entame issue was group captain Yuuka and I really wanted to have another solo post for her. But after these pics there just weren't enough new ones for a decent post but these ones here certainly rate an A+.

















 Minami's first photobook "Jozetsu na manazashi" has doe very well sales wise. It was released on September 25th and in it's first week was #1 on the Oricon charts selling 18,658 copies which is very impressive. That's a higher total than I thought it would be and hope management realizes what a mistake they've made dropping her from the Senbatsu lineup for the group's next single. These pics are from an interview she did for the PB with the Real Sound site.









 Will end off with another dose of Minami which is from the October 15th issue of Flash and has that incredible pic that was at the top, actually they're all quite fabulous. After the pics have a video featuring Akane who is another huge fave member of mine but only had one pic for today. The video is a behind the scenes one for Aeon and the CM she did for the credit card company.
