NMB48: 2020 Magazine scans #1....





 Bit of a 'spur of the moment' post as I didn't want to have just one for today. Didn't realize until a few minutes ago that this is the first NMB group post since August 30th, had I known that would have included so many more things. So what I'm planning on doing is having another post before the month is out as I'll hold back a mag spread or two. Surprisingly there hasn't been all that many mag spreads since their last post, in a way there has but most feature two members who I'm not that interested in as they're more gravure models than singers.
 At the top is the PV for NMB's 22nd single that came out on November 6th, title of the tune is "Hatsukoi Shijou Shugi". It's an okay song but noticed '48' tunes these days are sounding so similar, doesn't matter which group is singing the song as they all sound alike. It's worth a few listens but think their songs from 2012-16 were better. The single did hit #1 on the charts but sold just 166,000+ copies in it's first week which was their lowest total ever by far. However it's had some staying power as sales are now over 262,000 copies sold which was better than their previous single. Center for the single was Yuuri and it was her final single with the group as she graduated at the end of November. That's a shame as she seemed to be one of the more likable members, there were four versions of the single and these are the covers.





 So this will just be a mini post with five(?) spreads but least they're all terrific sets and as promised will have another group post by the end of the month. No Miru today but she did just have a post a few days ago but she will have a group spread in the next post. Just one for Sae who is in a battle with her for being NMB's most alluring gal, so even though my top two members only have four pics  that could be a good thing so others can have the spotlight for a post. This way too small spread is from the November issue of Scawaii.





 One more 2019 set that's from the December edition of Entame. First time you've seen Marin here, she turned twenty in December so she's old enough to be included now in these posts.








 Akari is someone who appears in many mags though rarely does gravure spreads, that's a good thing as enough members do. She's an exclusive model for the Ray magazine and for their January issue was their cover girl.















 No cover but another decent set of pics from Ray's March edition.








 Did mention above about the two who are battling for being NMB's most sexiest/alluring member. Have to include Yuuka in that battle as she's really blossomed these past two years and her spreads have become so dazzling. She'll end off today's somewhat mini post with the top pics of the day which are from the January issue of Entame. Yuuka will be turning 23 in August and with all of her terrific spreads it's such a shame there's no videos from any of her photo shoots.
