Nogizaka46: The opulent 'Mai Shiraishi post' #57....
Hmmmm, we still need another photobook to follow up "Passport" but aren't you getting the impression that'll never happen? Glad I could squeeze this post in and because of the laptop problems which seem to be a yearly issue didn't think it'd happen but as you can see there were no worries(?). Have mentioned a few times how slow of a year this has been for Mai yet this is her tenth post in the past nine months which is certainly quite a few. She did have a long gap of not doing too much but that's been changing with her departure from Nogi so close.
All I and most fans know is that Mai will officially be graduating on October 28th. It'll be a live event on her new YT channel but have no clue what it'll consist of. Kind of hoping that the group tapes a live show beforehand as there's no chance of a graduation concert and also hope that a few departed members will be on hand. Mai's a fairly sharp woman and knowing her bet she'll work on something grand that'll be a nice sendoff.
Lot of pics for today though not many different activities. Just did a post for Mai two weeks ago for her 28th birthday that took place on August 20th, on that day is when she created her YT channel. Won't post any videos from it but do have the link if you want to visit the site which of course is so popular already and you can view her b-day video with two close Nogi mates....
Have mentioned a few times about doing some sort of Nogi 'Bride post' but always forget about it. Aren't many if any brides in the world that could ever top Mai though she didn't appear too happy in the bottom pic knowing her groom was.... Nao(!)....
Always post many Nogi cards in Mai's and other member's posts. These are older yet checked and are all new for here, these are promo ones for the 'NogiKoi' mobile phone game.
Though no photobook will be coming out there will be a special graduation mag which will be quite large, it'll probably have many new pics but also ones throughout the years.
There's also some graduation attire so order now before they sell out!!!!
Mai dropped off the last preliminary list for this year's faves but should make the final cut. Last year she was 16th and she'll place a few spots higher this year, though not high on yearly lists Mai is easily in my top ten of all time and actually top five may be more accurate. Just one mag spread for today, she's the cover girl for the October issue of Biteki yet only had four pages?!
Mai was at yesterday's 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show that was held at the Saitama Super Arena, no fans were there but it was streamed live. It could be her last event as a Nogi member and did look quite good but a smile wouldn't have hurt.
Do have one video at the bottom from the show, watch it now as it may not be up for long but did like how she came in through the haze and a Nogi song played in the background. Will end off with some super duper Mai pics which most have seen but I never get tired of looking at them.
