Fumika Baba: May already have the most unsurpassable mag spread for 2021!!!!
That's not an exaggeration as it's one of the best spreads she's had which are too many to count, to top it off it has a 2021 calendar! Don't do a list for the top spreads of the year as it'd be so difficult to keep track of them but some do stand out, back in 2019 thought she had the top set for that year too. Hopefully 2021 will be a busier year for Fumika, she just had two regular posts this year and one for her 2019 photobook. Fumika is just so incredibly popular here and bet at any site that has many of her pics. In 2019 her posts had the eighth highest average for views which seemed low to me. That's because her posts from 2016-18 ranked fifth and even that seemed too low to me.
So this is Fumika's first post since early September, it's not that she hasn't been busy in 2020 but she's kind of streaky with her activities and has been for the last three years. But wouldn't be surprised if she has another post in the next few weeks as she has a film coming out this weekend plus has her first lead role in a drama beginning in January. Fumika may have been the top gravure model from 2015-18 but she 'retired' from doing those kinds of pics. But then 'unretired' for a stretch in 2019 and released such a dazzling photobook, she must have realized what had made her so popular. But after that PB came out she once again stopped doing gravure spreads which must have made her many fans sad but to me her regular modeling pics quite superb. Hopefully this new breathtaking spread is the start of many more and that we may also see another PB this year.
That drama mentioned is titled "3B no Koibito" and will be starting up on January 9th. It'll be Fumika's first time with a lead role in a semi major series and acting is a main reason for her curtailing her gravure modeling. Here's the drama's site and it'll be airing on Asahi/ABC: Drama site
Like so many dramas it's based on a manga. Fumika has a Line blog and hate to say it but what a terrible job she does updating it. So far in December she's just made two entries, these pics were from a November 30th post when she visited a special Fendi popup store event.
Not the spread talked about in the heading but this set is from the January issue of Mac Fan.
Fumika has been a model for Non-no since April 2015. For so many years we never saw all that many pics of her at their site or in mags but now she's one of their more popular models. Few pics from the site and the top two are brand new.
Hadn't realized Fumika's September Non-no spread was in her last post until I was about to write this one up. It's so terrific may as well have it again.
In the beginning talked about how Fumika had my top spread for 2019, here's a few pics from it. The set was from the Anan mag and three of the last four years they've had the top spread for a year.
We've hit the end and believe me when I say the title is 100% accurate as this may be the top spread for 2021. Of course it's not that year yet but this set from WPB is dated for January 11th, Fumika will be turning 26 in June but doesn't she look better than ever?! The answer is yes and as a nice bonus there's a complete 2021 calendar included with the spread. No video of the spread yet and there often is for WPB so after the pics have a short promo for her upcoming drama.
