Minami Hamabe: Her third somewhat intro post....
At nineteen Minami is by far the youngest person I post about. But she's someone I like quite a bit and though she's a bit young she seems so much older as she is a classy young woman and also such a superb actress. Plus Minami has never done a gravure spread and doubt if she ever will which is such a plus to me. Also being a bit young means she's someone I'll be able to depend on for so many years, there's just three gals I post about who aren't 21 yet and don't think I'll ever introduce anyone in the future who isn't that age.
Have done so many posts for Minami's dramas really made no sense not doing posts like this for her. Sure many know how much I enjoy the "Kakegurui" series, the movie has now come out and will be recapping it soon. Subs are so-so at best so first need to go and edit them so expect a review of it in a week or so. Both seasons have been recapped though wish season two had been longer than five episodes. But it was mainly a lead in for the movie and as most know Minami is the star of the series playing a gambling addict named Yumeko. Hope the film isn't the end of the "Kakegurui" franchise, did skim through the film and here's a few screenshots from it.
This is a big post but also a spur of the moment one so don't have a huge variety of things. Minami doesn't appear in two many mag spreads and just have two of them for today. Had missed this one which came out on April 30th, it was from SPA! and it was promoting the above movie.
One more small spread that's from the August 23rd issue of Friday.
What I like most about Minami is how she looks at events and she's been at four of them since September 1st. On that date she was at one to promote her 2020 calendar, the event took place at the HMV store in Shibuya and the first five pics are from the calendar which was shot in Hokkaido. As you can see she also celebrated a belated birthday.
Six days after that Minami was at the Saitama Super Arena for the Autumn/Winter 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show. With her was her co-star from the "Hello World" movie which is an anime one, she voiced the character of Ruri and it was her first appearance at a TGC show.
Not going to go back to post about any missed events or whatever but there should be many things in the future to post about. On October 12th Minami was at a NTT Docomo event to promote a new 'My Daiz' phone which isn't coming out until the Spring.
These are my top pics of the day and she really looks superb dressed up as a .... good witch? On October 30th Minami was at a Halloween party but more importantly it was to promote her upcoming film "Murder at Shijinso" which is coming out on December 13th. There's a really big fave of mine also named Minami who you all know well, her first PB comes out on the same day. Plenty of fabulous pics from the event and there should be a few more of them for the film such as some screenings. Following the pics is a video of the event.
