First one of these kinds of posts since October 4th so it'll be a biggie but did have a post for mag spreads about three weeks ago. Have said many comments in other posts recently about Idols and how I would be weening off from doing posts for them which has worked out well. But want to stress to all Nogi fans who visit here and there's a large amount of them that nothing will be changing. The members who have been having solo posts will continue to do so though the current total is sadly down to five. Nothing will really be changing in these group posts either but will be having them just for the first and second generation members who seldom have solo posts, will also have one third generation gal but as always you will never hear about one 4G members or have any pics for them.
Now that Mai has graduated that's why the total is down to five for members who tend to have many solo posts. Speaking of Mai will have a few posts coming up for her soon. Have a subbed video of a documentary plus there will be a subbed version of her farewell show coming out so when that's done expect a few posts. Do make things a bit simplre this one sentence, 'I like my massive fave members just as much but don't car for the group any more'. So what that boils down to is the members I've been following for five or so years remain huge faves of mine. But don't like the direction the group is going in as far as getting so much younger so tend not to follow group activities that closely unless they're with the older members and hope that all makes sense. EDIT: Almost forgot to mention their 26th single will be coming out in January and the Senbatsu selection will be this Sunday. Have a strong and sad feeling the center will be a 4G gal which means I may never listen to it or at least the hit.
Besides what I said in the beginning these posts are also for some graduates who I liked and have remained busy. Yumi is one and she's had a good amount of pics in these posts this year. Never thought she was all that attractive when she was with Nogi but she became a model for the Oggi mag after she left and their makeup department has done wonders for her, these are from their December issue.
.... Kana who unfortunately is another graduate and that took place on October 25th. I always thought she was such a 'team player' and though she wasn't in the spotlight enough think so many other Nogi members looked up to her. Her first photobook came out a month ago and I'm surprised how well it's sold, after four weeks the total amount of copies fans have purchased is a little over 50,000. Good for her and have to admit Nogi's management does give most members a proper sendoff. Have a pair of spreads with outtake pics from the PB, first set is from the October 13th issue of Flash.
Let's finally talk about some gals who are still with Nogi, think I had about a hundred pics for this post so some will be held back so there's not another long gap between them. To my pleasant surprise Ayane is also going to have a photobook which will be coming out in a few weeks. So far there's been no mag spreads for it but sure they will be coming up. Top four pics are promo ones for the book while the rest are from a recent Real Sound interview and she's done about five of them this month.
Will end off with a terrific spread with Nogi's second captain Manatsu. Read some fans saying how poorly they though her second PB sold but the total is about 80,000 copies which is 25,000 more than her first book, how can that be disappointing. Manatsu's the cover girl for the December issue of
EX-Taishu. So many of my Nogi/Keya videos get deleted so may skip them for a while so instead here's a link to Nogi's YT channel so you can choose your own video: Nogi's YT channel
