Nogizaka46: The prodigious 'Miona Hori post' #32....



 Don't think any Idol has as many pics of them eating so where does she put it all? If you read the above post then you know there may be a change for my #1 on the next preliminary list for this year's faves. Those two posts will be happening next Thursday and unless something incredibly odd happens in the next seven days then Miona will become my new number one for this year though the final list won't be appearing until December.
 She was fifth on the first list but to me Miona deserves the top spot more than anyone else. Why not as she's been such a massive fave of mine for so long and even though there's been such a slowdown on activities this year it hasn't affected her too much. Have also mentioned a few times recently about the mini break I'll be taking while Blogger changes their system and hope it doesn't affect this site too much. When I return from that break the first post you'll probably be seeing is Miona's second photobook. At first I was kind of lukewarm with it but it's really grown on me and would say it's my top PB of the year to date.


 Hmmm, her mate's 2020 photobook was pretty darn good too....

 Don't think this will be a large post as there was just one for Miona about three weeks ago and Nogi hasn't done much since then. That post has been extremely popular and she's gained so many fans here the past two years as she's finally reclaimed the top spot for being my fave Nogi member. She took that honor away from her best friend who has been too quiet lately. This will be the final batch of screenshots for their trip to New Caledonia and was a special on Abema-TV. It was an okay watch but nothing special though a few segments were rather interesting. These for today are from their third and final day on the island. Miona mentioned how she can't swim(!), to me that's surprising and wonder why this destination was picked then for the TV special?





















 I have posted so many Nogi cards this year, would say about a thousand to date and am getting down to the last of them. These are some older SSR cards and have noticed there hasn't been many for 2020 which may be due to the health crisis(?).









 Still miss my all time Nogi member but have to admit they cliche 'out of sight, out of mind' describes her these days for me and Miona took over her spot for being my current fave Nogi member.





 On September 5th the Autumn/Winter 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show will be held and it's going to be a huge event. Noticed that some Keya and Hina members will be there but didn't see any Nogi gals on the list and sure hope that changes. Besides that all time fave member also miss seeing Nogi members at events plus their Summer tour was cancelled. So as has been the norm for most posts need to back in time for event pics and have such a terrific set for today. They're from the 'Girls Award' Spring 2019 show that took place on May 18th, Miona just looked so....











 This small set is from the August 11th issue of Flash Diamond. It features outtake pics from her second PB and a few of the pics I hadn't seen before.





 Have a few more outtake pics from Miona's second PB which hadn't been posted before, she must have had over 200 promo pics for the book.











 Few pics from the ar magazine site but there's been such a slowdown on them recently. This December Miona will be celebrating her fourth anniversary of being a model for them, another celebration happening soon takes place on October 15th when she hits the age of 24.





 Least we have some fine pics from her Nogi blog, Miona's really the only member who posts on a consistent basis.











 Final happening for today is this spread from the September issue of ar and it did turn out to be somewhat of a huge post. No new videos but after the pics have one for Mouse computers that came out a year ago and Miona lying on the ground with that laptop....
