Nogizaka46: Minami Umezawa's formidable eighth post!!!!


 Often refer to this year's top faves list in posts but rarely think about it when I'm not posting. Need to start doing that for as of yesterday there were jsut 22 eligible for this year's list and the goal was to have at least thirty. Still over three months until the countdown gets underway but need to start doing more posts for those who aren't eligible yet, will discuss it more in two days when the second preliminary list will be revealed.

 But you can increase that number by one as it's become 23 faves who are eligible as now Minami is. She's had enough posts this year to qualify plus will have at least two more by the end of September and she also has had well over a hundred pics in Nogi group posts. In all honesty would like to place Minami in the fifth position as to me she's the most alluring Nogi member ever and perhaps of all current Idols. But seeing as how this is her first time on any kind of list will probably place her lower, say 12th or so but by the end of the year she could move up to fifth.


 During that mini break that will be starting soon am planning on watching many dramas, films and other things. Will write the posts up right after viewing them but you may not see those posts for a week to ten days. One of the first things I'll be viewing is another segment from the 'Nogi 46 Hour' TV special that aired in June but this segment was just subbed a few days ago. It's a battle of the third generation members to see who is the best athlete, they do all sorts of competitions such as races, high jump, long jump, hula hooping, etc. The first thing to take place was a 50 meter dash which Minami ran in, at 170 cm you'd think she'd be an excellent runner with those long legs. But she wasn't as fast as I thought as the race was basically a tie and actually she may have been edged out.






 All of these Nogi solo posts are quite superb but think this will end up being one of the best ones this year and have a large variety of things. Almost all of the pics are new save for the first two batches but these have never been posted here before which are some Nogi SSR cards for 2018 and 2019.









 Just checked the 'Tokyo Girls Collection' site and there's still no mention of any Nogi members appearing at their September 5th show but there will be many Keya and Hina gals there. Don't understand why but there's almost three weeks to the show for them to be added. Was going back and looking at some of their older shows, of all the models at them none outshine Minami who always looks so irresistible, these are from their March 19, 2019 show and whewwwwwww.......











 Why I really expect there to be some Nogi members there or at least a trio is that the "Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken" film will be coming out on September 25th and they could do a bit of promoting for it. Minami is one of the trio of Nogi members starring in the film and there should be some things coming up for the film such as mag spreads, interviews and hopefully an event. These screenshots are from a short new promo video for the movie.









 Have Minami's spread for the September edition of With but am going to hold on to that for her next post. But do have many pics from their site and to me her as an OL is tough to top. At one time there were five Nogi gals for their OL campaign but it's now just down to Minami.











 Do have a pair of new Minami mag spreads and besides the one for With she's also scheduled to be in at least two upcoming ones. This set is from the August issue of Brody.












 Minami has never had to dress skimpy in her spreads to look so overly sexy and alluring though we may be seeing some of those kinds of pics soon. This stupendous set is from the September issue of EX-Taishu and she's often the cover girl of a magazine.














 Long time Nogi fans know that my wish for the past year has been for Minami to have a photobook, my wish was answered as it'll be coming out on September 29th. Kind of torn on it though, know so many pics will be sending me rushing for a cold shower but then again one the thing I've liked about her most is not having gravure pics. Of course there will be many but probably fewer than other Nogi books and to be honest have no clue whether this is supposed to be a huge seller. Title of the PB is "Yume no Chikaku" and the photo shoot took place on the Gold Coast of Australia. Top three are the covers foe the book along with some other advance pics and actually Minami looks slightly more bodacious than I expected. Following the sultry pics is a new CM that came out four days ago for
'Cup Star' noodles.
