Nogizaka46: Asuka Saito's exalted 13th solo post!

 


 Asuka didn't have a solo post until October yet now she's quickly up to three for 2020, she really could have had double the amount. Save for her first and only photobook Asuka's posts until those last two were the least popular ones of any Nogi member. Can't give a good reason why, lack of gravure spreads could be one but that's been the case for most Nogi members. But her last two posts have been extremely popular and both made the section for most viewed posts of the past month, the older she gets the more attractive too and she turned 22 in August.


 Asuka's last post was less than a month ago, Nogi has been kind of quiet so didn't think there would be enough pics for a post but there's plenty. This is the fourth post in a row I've written up this morning so would like to zip through it. How about starting off with some recent pics from her 'Harry's English Class' radio show and as mentioned before she should study a bit harder....









 What I've noticed recently is that Asuka does more modeling work than any other Nogi member, don't know if it's true but it seems that way. So will have some of those pics for today and these ones aren't all new but from the past two years from Elebelle contact lenses. I like the way she looks in these pics and her hair is the same length but in a different style these days. 










 Have become streaky this year doing drama recaps, you may see twenty one month then only five the next one. This is a next one as there may only be that amount for December but have been including mini recaps in some posts. Will do that for today with the "Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken" drama which after seven months I've finally finished. the problem was two teams picked up the project and neither finished it. But a new team completed it last week, did two recaps for it back in May but now it's too late to add on to them but I really did want to finish the series which also had a movie.

 In the drama Asuka played the character of Midori, an eighteen year old high school gal and of course as you'll see in the screenshots also starred two other Nogi members. Eisouken was a new video club that Midori had created with her best and only friend Sayaka and they picked up a third mate, Tsubame. With the anime/movie club being new they were put on a trial basis to prove they deserved to be funded by the student council. Though they're talented with many ideas it didn't translate over to things getting done as there was always a reason they couldn't work on their anime project. But the deadline to submit a movie was drawing near and not one cell had been put on paper or film. These are from the third and fourth episodes, in her next post will have the final two shows. As mentioned there was a film that came out in September and guess it's a continuation of what episode ended off with.
























 Back to some regular pics if you want to call these regular ones as the day only happens once a year.











 Will hold one set of modeling pics back so there won't be a gap in posts. Asuka's pics from the Sweet magazine site are always among her finest and have plenty new ones here from them.












 We've quickly hit the end of this post, not a lot of different activities yet almost seventy new pics. In 2018 and 2019 Asuka won awards for appearing on the most magazine covers, won't happen this year as the amount of spreads really decreased yet she was busier than ever. Final set is from the January 5th issue of Young Magazine and as you can see she did grace the cover. After the pics have a 2019 CM for Cup Star soup which is one of her most popular solo videos with almost two million views.
