Wow(!), four birthday posts in less than a week and don't think there were four total for the previous four months, there hopefully will be a fifth one a week from today. If you read one honoree's post you'll know someone was added back on to the preliminary faves list which gives it an 'October vibe'. Positions 3, 5,6, 7 and 15 were all born between October 10th and the 21st(!), I'm also trying to make someone eligible who was born on the 14th. Knew a lot of faves were born this month but didn't realize how many birthdays were so close together. In another oddity number's one and two to date were born just one day apart which is January 5th and sixth though one year separates them.
Another thing that popped into my tiny mind was how few Nogi members I follow these days. Though there's been so many group posts this year and perhaps more solo posts than ever it's really just eleven members who get 90% of the pics. There's five first generation gals who will soon decrease by one, then there's three each from the second and third generations who get mentioned frequently. But that's it and those eleven are only a quarter of the present group, do talk about others on occasion in group posts but the days where Nogi dominates the amount of posts is winding down.
Least I do follow one Nogi grad who is #1 in total posts and hopefully the soon to be departed you-know-who will remain busy too. Wonder what someone like Miona will do after she graduates from Nogi(?) but wouldn't think it'd happen for two or so years. She is now 24 in age but six present members are 25+, they may realize things won't be as good once they leave the group and think they're wise for remaining. One reason for that thought is I've been a bit nostalgic the last week or so for someone who I can't believe has remained in the shadows for 3 1/2 years....
But this post is for
Miona who has reclaimed the top spot as my current fave Nogi member. She's had quite a few posts this year, this is her 12th solo one plus has had two 'pairs post' along with two for Nogi TV shows and has been in four group ones. So
Miona may have more posts and pics than any other Idol this year yet this is her first solo post in nine weeks. It did affect her position on the faves list as she dropped from #1 to third but won't go lower than that on the final list. Hmmmm, seems in that spare time she had been working on that Nao experiment....
.... but at least she's still failing at that experiment and she better not find the solution....
.... gulp, now you know why!!!! Hmmmm again, was she hanging out with some other gal during her break, gulp again....!
Miona should actually have been the one saying that comment! On to things and though it's been nine weeks since her last post they're aren't as many new items as you would think. Figure there's just 35 brand new pics since that last post but do have over twenty that have never been posted before plus do have a few other reprised golden pics. The birthday is actually tomorrow so there were no new blog pics for the occasion but she still has more pics at Nogi's blog than any other member.
Not too many pics from years gone by for her birthday....
.... as she's partaking in her fave activity to attend any parties held for her, where does she out it all? Sigh, once again I had to remind
Miona last night not to eat in bed....
Still plan on having a Nogi post or two for Halloween, that is if I don't use up all of the pics in these solo posts. Not a putdown but Nogi used to be a much more fun group, for instance from 2013 to 2016 they would perform at a Halloween show but none since then. They also used to have X-Mas concerts but those too have gone by the wayside and is that the price fans pay for them being superstars? Came back to add this in which I may have mentioned before. Doesn't she look so much like
Ayaka Miyoshi(?), I think so and there's only a four month difference in their birthdays.
Miona's "Hot Gimmick" movie came out on DVD October 7th, I think she could be Nogi's best actress but the film was just too horrible to finish. She did an interview for it with the
Real Sound site and also had a twenty second promo video if you want to view it:

Lack of Nogi events this year and we all know why, most things are back to normal so hope we get to see some members at some upcoming ones. I really miss them appearing at events as I prefer seeing pics of them 'live' and
Miona is one who usually would be at an event. The last one she attended along with five other Nogi members was the September 5th 'Tokyo Girls Collection' Autumn/Winter show. Did have a post with some pics from it but a few of these weren't in it.
This December will mark
Miona's fourth anniversary of being a model for the
ar magazine. The last few months though she's had very few pics at their site which are often better than the ones in their mags. But at least she's been in their last two issues, top four are from the
ar October edition while the rest are from their November issue.
Small set from the November edition of With, been a slowdown for her mag appearances but perhaps that means she'll be back in full force soon.
Miona's second photobook came out in May, it fell off the charts in July but think the total copies sold is around 75,000. Have a feeling a few fans seem as though that figure is disappointing but only thirteen of 42 solo books have sold over a 100 K so that's really not a bad sales figure. What really hurt is that it was pushed back a few times as it was supposed to be released last November. Oki doki, we've hit the end of this long post but I enjoy doing ones like these for may massive faves over any others Will leave you with some ultra perfect
Miona pics and you can see why she's my #1 Nogi member and still has an outside shot of being number one this year on the faves list. Often have a video at the end but will skip one for today as there hasn't been a decent one from Nogi in many months
