Aqours: The Shuka Saito post #3....



 Really like all nine of the members from Aqours quite a bit but four especially. Haven't had a group post for a few months but am hoping there will be one soon as they tend to be much busier from December to February. At times there's almost too much to post about the gals and it's confusing on where to start. The confusion is that they do so much voice acting for animes as a group and as solo Seiyus and actually it's hard to post about those things.
 This is Shuka's third solo post so obviously she's one of my fave members and she's also had many pics in the group posts. Think Shuka's last post was in mid August when she celebrated her 23rd birthday, on that day she also released her first mini album. That did well as it hit #5 on the charts it's first week out but can't recall how many copies it sold.



 After doing so many recent posts for gravure models it's a nice change of pace to post about someone like Shuka and actually do prefer posting about a gal like her. Mentioned that her first mini album came out in August, she also just released her first single last month and will end off the post with some info about it and a video.
 Have said throughout the year how I'm trying to make these posts a bit smaller. Well they seem to be getting bigger than ever so guess I get an F for my progress but do have a feeling most viewers prefer one huge post versus 2-3 smaller ones with the same info and pics. Not sure how big today's will be but guessing it contains 55 or so pics, wonder how many words will be typed? Shuka is too good of an Instagram poster as there's no way to keep up with her pics. Have many from the past few weeks here and as you can see in many of them she stopped at a few stores to promote her new single but she didn't have any sort of event for it.















 Shuka is also going to be performing some solo concerts next March and wonder why she didn't do them now to promote the single? Aqours is a very fun group in concert and are a rarity for J-Poppers as they have a band back them.












 Aqours has three spin off groups, three members are in each of them. Shuka's group is named CyaRon! and the trio had a mini spread in the January 1st issue of Young Jump. It's also promoting a new song for an anime and the last three pics of her are from the photo shoot.








 Have noticed about every three to four months Shuka is the cover girl of a Big Comic Spirits issue and always has a nice big spread in it. Must be the fourth month as she has the honor of being the cover girl for issue #2-3 for January 9th, they now won't put out an issue for three weeks.














 For the final happening have some info for Shuka's debut single "36 Degreee/Papapa" though she did already have a solo album. The single came out on November 20th and in it's first week was 12th on the Oricon charts which was okay as there was some stiff competition, it sold close to 10,000 copies which is a decent figure. Have some promo pics for it here along with some from the PV and a TV appearance. Actually the PV screenshots are from the B-side 'Papapa", have that video instead of the A-side following the pics as it's a much better song and video plus it has almost a million views.
