Nao Kanzaki: Top sixteen faves for 2020 by post average- part two, positions eight to one

 

 Just want to point out again this list isn't of my faves but of you viewers, these are who you consider to be your top sixteen faves. There is one list I'd like to do which to me would be the most interesting one ever, only problem is that it would take so long to compile the stats. That's of who the most popular gals are here since 2012, did a mini version of that for my faves for the stretch of 2016-19. Would set the criteria at having 25 or more solo posts which would eliminate so many, also wouldn't have to figure out many other's averages as they've never been popular though may have over a hundred posts. Bring that up as over the years very few have had posts that have drawn more than Miyuki's and she just may be in the top five.

 As mentioned numerous times she's been my number one hottest woman of all time for many years now. Many have challenged her but have always been beaten away! Starting with Miyuki as she had five posts for this year which means she missed by one post of qualifying for this and the fave's list. But it's been many years since she had that many so really can't complain. Had she been eligible her post average was 811 which would have placed her in the fifth spot so I'm not the only one who goes ga-ga over her and isn't it easy to see why....

 Sadly the biggest drop in average this year belongs to such a fave of mine, she finished sixth on this year's faves list but hoped she would be challenging for the top spot. That's Risa who was second on 2019's list and also was the most popular gal here for that year with an average of 1,105 views per post which of course is higher by now. But what a tumble she made as that average fell all the way down to 551 views per post and she didn't even make the top sixteen! I blame the inactivity of Keya so much for the drop as Risa only had half as many posts in 2020 as she did the previous year. 

 One other person who was a tad disappointing was Yui and really thought she would have made the list. she was tenth for the first half. However she's had some health issues and hasn't been active at all the last four months as so many zoomed past her and her older posts from early in the year haven't received that many views. Yui's average for the year was 484 views per post, she had twelve posts in 2020 but nine were before July 1st.

 Finally it's time for the top eight and the averages really increased from 2019. In that year 1,105 was the high, in 2020 that would just have been third but by only three views a post. Of the sixteen this year seven were also on last year's list and a few others just missed. As in the first post will have their average, some info with pics and a link to one of their 2020 posts.

#8.... Rena Takeda whose six posts had an average of 667, fourth on last year's list

First 2020 post

 That average last year was 740 so she's another person with quite a drop. No doubt the reasons were not having nearly as many posts plus she's no longer doing gravure spreads. To me Rena was the most popular gal here from early 2017 to mid 2019, she does remain a huge fave of many viewers but can see her dropping even further next year.

 #7.... Miona Hori, thirteen posts that averaged 682 and was ninth on last year's list

May 29th post

 That average increased from last year's 644. Miona has been one of my most massive faves the past three years but for so long wasn't that popular here. But that began changing in early 2019 and these days most of her posts will hit the top ten for most views in a month. However we may not see her on any list in the future as she will be departing from Nogi very soon though no date has been announced, I've never been so bummed out with an Idol graduation.

 #6.... Yume Shinjo, she had seven posts that averaged 685 and her first year on the list

First intro post from March

 

 First year on the list as she never had a post until the one that's the above link, would think she'll always make the list as long as she has six posts for a year. The gap between sixth and seventh was the closest battle as just three views a post was the difference. Yume finished 13th on this year's faves list and she was my #1 newbie for the year. Also for so many viewers as all of her posts have been popular with the above link being her most viewed post.

 #5.... Mai Shiraishi, an average of 784 for fifteen posts and was also fifth last

October 20th post

 Second person to finish in the same position two years in a row but her average is sixty views more per post compared to 2019. Mai has always been very popular but that did ebb for a while, now she's back to being the fave of so many and thought 2019 was a quiet year but fifteen solo posts is a high number. What's impressive with this position is that she didn't have one of the top sixteen most viewed posts of the year, eight of the top ten did.

 #4.... Mio Imada, fifteen posts that averaged 827 and didn't make last year's list

Life Power photobook

 Didn't make last year's list as for so long Mio wasn't too popular with you viewers but that's certainly changed. She did have fifteen posts butt five were from older photobooks that came out in 2018/19. She too has 'retired' from doing gravure pics so will be curious to see if her popularity continues, hope so as she's been a fave of mine for some years now.

 #3.... Mizuki Yamashita, six posts that had an average of 1,102 views

First solo post

 This was a slight surprise but guess it shouldn't have been. Above is the link to Mizuki's first ever solo post though she had so many pics in Nogi group posts. Six posts she had but that total should be higher, will work on one for next week. Also am about to finish her 'Eizouken' drama after a few attempts, hope to have the recaps for it very soon.

 #2.... Kazusa Okuyama whose nine posts averaged 1,208 views, seventh on last year's list

July 24th post

 Huge increase from last year as her average in 2019 was 686 which is still a high number. That 1,208 views per post would have been #1 last year by a wide margin, Kazusa has just become such a popular gal here these last two years. There was a big gap between first and second, her two November posts didn't draw many views which may be a reason she wasn't #1.

 #1.... Yuki Yoda, eight posts that had an average of 1,394 views

Second intro post from March

 This was really no surprise and that average is 289 higher than last year's top spot. Not much more I can say about Yuki who is such a likable young woman and who did have a massive post for her yesterday. Four Nogi members were in the top seven but after that there were only two other J-Pop Idols, going to be difficult for anyone in the future to top this year's #1 average.
