Risa Watanabe: Her long awaited yet delightful 36th post!!!!
I was definitely in a bad way yesterday about my laptop crashing and aren't most people when a semi tragedy such as that happens? But have cooled down but at first had many bad thoughts cross my mind such as ceasing this blog but that was just a spur of the moment flash(I hope). But if there is one quality about me is that I'm not a quitter, even though most at work know more than me I've always been the one others come to for a solution. So will try to find a solution for this predicament, if it means doing less posts, only every other day having them or whatever something will work out.
**** Wrote the above and below paragraphs up last night to save some. After did a good cleanup of this old laptop plus ran 110(!) minutes of Windows updates. So knock on wood as doing those things helped out immensely and perhaps there will be no gap in posts coming up but left these paragraphs in case something does go a bit daffy between now and Tuesday night. While the performance is much better the loose keyboard isn't and don;t know if it's possible to reattach letter keys.
Doing these posts isn't too much a problem save for some letter keys popping out. But this laptop is overall so much slower than my other one so the prep work takes about five times longer which are things like visiting sites, cropping pics or scanning them, etc. So at least this happened during a holiday weekend as I was going to do these two(?) posts this morning and then take off until Tuesday night. Hope to have a regular post or two then but if not will have a post updating you on the current situation and perhaps there can be another kind of 'Nao list' for that post if it's needed. So not going to worry about things and just kick back with a sixty pack(!) of Genny and have a Japanese movie marathon which has been way overdue.... then again a shower may be needed first, gulp....
Still not sure why but that bottom pic could be my all time #1 for her but aren't there too many other hundreds that could be number one also? This is Risa's eighth post in a little over six months yet her first one since June 15th. Though there may be over eighty pics for today only about half are new ones since that last post. Can't blame her too much for the inactivity as Keya still hasn't done all that many activities this year though things are picking up slightly. Will do a group post soon where I'll delve into more details but most members have been affected by the quietness of Keya as a whole.
They did have that digital single which I think is just fair, not a bad song but one that you wouldn't play too often in the future. But have noticed how few mag spreads the members appear in these days, that goes for Risa who only has one mini one for today and very few for 2020 compared to last year. With Keya's final concert coming up in October wonder if that'll mean another long gap between singles and really hope that's not the case as bet some J-Pop fans have stopped following them. So if this laptop continues to function somewhat well will have that group post next weekend and it should be a fairly large one.
Hmmmm, shower time again which isn't a bad idea, that first one didn't cool me off but made me a bit hotter!!!! That above link is to Risa's November 13th post which for some reason has been her most popular post ever. It's in the running for being the most viewed post for the past year and will be working on a list for what post has received the most views in a one year period and that post is in contention for the top spot.
Last year Risa was barely edged out from being #1 on my faves list though in all honesty have said a few times she really was my top gal of 2019. She was in the hunt for this year's top spot too but this slowdown on things the past three months has really hurt her as she tumbled from the second position to seventh and don't think there's any chance of taking this year's top spot. Whew, a lot of words so far but not enough pics so let's get to things. These are older cards for the 'Keyakise' mobile game, older yet new for here as none of them had been posted before. Did notice there's many more that's the case for so you'll be seeing many more in future posts.
Those above cards are from 2018, her looks have changed a lot in only two years. Since that last post Risa celebrated her 22nd birthday on July 27th and also Keya just had their fifth anniversary.
Three days ago Keya's documentary film had it's premiere after being delayed since May. Can't believe how few pics there were from the event, all major news sites had the same dozen or so.
But there were many interviews done for the documentary though all were group ones, these are from the 'Real Sound' site and not sure if I'm a big fan of their newish uniforms.
Will have more interview pics in the next group post but really am hoping there will be a solo post for my #2 fave Keya member who looked the best of them at yesterday's TGC show.
Yesterday's Autumn 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show was held at the Saitama Super Arena though no audience was there however the show was steamed live. The problem was there were too many actresses, models and Idols on hand so very few got to take a long stroll on the catwalk and most only made one appearance. But the four Keya members came back for a second time to promote their 'Keya Aeon' card and haven't seen a new CM or video from them for a while.
Risa looked okay promoting the card portion but was kind of disappointed in her solo strut as she was dressed so blandly. Especially when you compare those pics to how she's looked at older shows which on occasion were breathtaking(to me) and the top batch are my #1 Risa event pics.
Always knew Risa was a bit tallish and only one Keya member's height is greater but just noticed she's 167 cm and hadn't realized she was that tall. Risa has been a Non-no model since April 2017, have some new pics from their site but not many considering these are from the last three months.
Only mag spread for today is a way too small one from Non-no's September issue.
We've hit the end and though there were a lot of pics for this post wish there had been more new ones so will end off with some 'greatest hits' and these are why I wish Risa was in the running for this and last year's #1 fave. Don't know how long it'll remain on YT but have a video after the pics featuring the four Keya members from yesterday's TGC show.
