Welcome to my humble site....

Hajimemashite minna san....welcome to my site on my fave Japanese Pop Culture likes such as dramas, movies, magazine scans, promo events etc. Mainly concentrate on my faves...Risa Watanabe... Kyoko Saito... Yui Kobayashi....Nana Owada.... Nene Shida.... if you're a fan at all of any of them then you've come to the right place(!) but many others are featured here besides them. Do mainly quick reviews on things I've watched, try to make the reviews brief, quick to read through with not too many spoilers, just whether they're good or bad and why I thought so plus whether you may find them enjoyable. Many, many screenshots are included from everything I've watched plus any video trailers if they're available. Hope you find something that interests you, don't hesitate to comment, arigato gozaimasu!

Nogizaka46: A little bit of this and that for 2020 #6....



 First group post in ten days but thought it was much longer than that, even Nogi to an extent has been slowed down a bit by the health crisis. Which means no recent events or concerts, still have no clue what's going on with Mai's graduation show as there's no way they cannot have one for her.
 Yuki is certainly becoming a popular gal here and her second solo post may hit #1 for most views this month soon. However don't know if there will be any more of those posts for her, if she does have another barrage of pics will but just plan on going back to having her pics in group posts. Sales figures don't come out until next Friday but sure her second photobook which came out five days ago will easily top the charts. Would think the total sold will be well over 100,000 copies, there was another reprint this week to bring the total to 200,000 copies. Few more promo pics have come out for the PB and though Yuki is Nogi's shortest member that's just in height, whew....





 Gulp, good idea from her so let's zip through this post. But remember there's another photobook coming out soon, April 10th to be exact and it'll be the second one for the group's captain Manatsu. For a long time she wasn't that much of a fave of mine but have grown to like her so much more these past two years. Thought her first photobook that came out back in 2017 was superb, this PB promises to be even better and these advance pics are out of this world....





 Have to admit some of those pics shock me, Manatsu has always been kind of a conservative gal. Who I would love to have a second photobook is Nogi's oldest member Mai but doubt that'll ever happen. As usual there's never enough pics for a solo post but she always has a good amount of them in these group posts. First batch of pics are new from the andGirl site and they could be the best pics of the day.... well, the above ones are pretty darn good too. Following them are ones from Wednesday night's 'All Night Nippon' radio show.

















 In Miona's post yesterday said I was going to have some info from the second generation's recent 'Showroom' special. However didn't think this post would happen so soon and wasn't prepared. That's okay as there's plenty of pics for today and actually will end up taking so many screenshots that a whole post may be devoted to that show.








 That 'Showroom' special is over two hours long but am looking forward to viewing the whole thing, there may even be two posts to recap it and actually have been waiting to see if it'll be subbed. My fave three Nogi members are from the second generation but I really do like all of the 2G gals who are so underrated. Those three have been at the top of my faves list for a while, if I was stuck on a desert island with just one of them couldn't go wrong with any of the trio....






 That bottom pic is from Nogi's upcoming single which will be released on March 25th, funny how they grouped by top three faves together!  Here's a member we didn't hear from too often for a long time but seems Hina has been much busier lately, her looks have really improved over the years. She's a first generation member and is now also an exclusive model for JJ magazine, these are some recent pics from their site.











 Was just thinking to myself that there's been a slowdown with Nogi spreads, perhaps there has been but the group still must have five or so a week. Just four for today which do feature the lesser known members such as Ranze who has this first set which is from volume 137 of Marquee. Ranze's going to be graduating from college in two weeks, wonder how much longer she'll be with Nogi?






 More Hina as she shares this spread with Minami that's from the April issue of Bomb.









 Momoko has been appearing in quite a few mags lately, have two for today but there's also two more spreads, Thus pair will end off the post, there's eight pics from the March edition of Bubka followed by eleven from the February issue of UTB which is her best spread to date.
