Hinatazaka46: Their first mega post of the year.... but not the last!!!!

 


 Could be mistaken but think this is the first time there's been three consecutive posts for the trio of '46' groups but this isn't a solo one like the above posts. Don't knw why I don't do more posts for Hina as they do have the most likable members of any current J-Pop group. Have often said one problem with them is that they have too much going on and sometimes don't know where to begin. This year's been a bit slower though as there's only been one event and such a shortage of mag spreads. Like the other '46' posts for today am waiting for the 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show to be held so I can end off with many pics from it.



 Sigh, don't wake me up from that dream!!!!!!!

 When I make a promise usually follow through with it so if you're a Hina fan expect at least two more group posts this month, hopefully can have a pair of for my top two members also. There's a couple of mini mag spreads which will be in them plus some modeling pics and seems the members in Hina do more modeling than Nogi and Keya combined. Not sure how many members I'll have from the TGC show in this post as I'm writing this up two days in advance but know at least the next post will feature more pics from it. Also will get back to having mini recaps for their 'Aimashou' variety show which is the best of all three groups. 



 The above members are who I'll try to have some solo posts for this month and both are way overdue for one but it's mainly because of the lack of new activities. Lot of pics for today though not a bunch of different things but do have a few posts to spread them out. Who I really adore in Hina is Konoka who will be turning 22 next month and she is just so darn attractive. In late September she fell ill and was in the hospital for a few days, then she had to take a leave until the end of December. Her triumphant return took place during Hina's Christmas show and it was kind of an emotional scene. No new mag spreads or event pics but do have some from her Hina blog.











 Ayaka is someone I also like quite a bit and I seem to have so many faves in this group so makes me wonder why there haven't been more posts. She's a model for the JJ magazine and these are some recent pics from their site.









 More Ayaka and these pics are promo ones for their 'Uni's on Air' web game, Keya is also part of it but before her four there's some of Mei and yes, she's also someone I adore immensely.









 Another batch of pics from the Uni's site, first four are of Mirei while the others are for Shiho who is someone I'll try to have a solo post for this month.









 How about one more set featuring Mei and she truly has deserved a solo post but has never had one. This too small set is from the March issue of EX-Taishu.






 Will be taking a two day break after this set and wait for pics from the TGC show, really hope it turns out to be a decent event or I'll be a bit disappointed. This will be one of the largest spreads this year as it has 31 pages and is from the March 3rd issue of Anan which mainly features eight members. Was just thinking that's it's now been over a year since the group's last single. Of course the virus has played a role in that but Keya and Nogi have released a few so where's their fifth?
































 Wow, that was a huge spread and as mentioned there's been so many fewer this year but not just for Hina but just about everyone. The TGC show took place and have made my return to finish this post off. Said I would be back quickly with another group post and will by this weekend. Hopefully there will be one for Kyoko too as I didn't include any of her recent pics in this post. Try to have solo ones for her so hopefully her next post will be done by this weekend. Her first PB came out five weeks ago so surprised we haven't seen more from her, these are from today's TGC show.





 The Spring/Summer 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show was held on February 28th, hope that title doesn't mean it'll be their only one of the year. It was held at the Yoyogi First Gymnasium arena which can hold over 13,000 fans but none were allowed so it had to be streamed live. Not as many Hina members had a solo stroll on the catwalk as usual, will have two gals today and another pair in the next group post. Mentioned how much I like Ayaka and she made two strolls. First batch was her solo strut on the Evris stage while Ayaka's other was a group one to promote their DASADA clothing line.




















 Last set for today features Kumi who is also a big fave of mine and is Hina's captain. She's also their oldest member and turned 25 on January 22nd which I overlooked for that's also the date of two huge Nogi faves. Kumi just took one stroll on the catwalk for Red Yazel and will have more of her solo pics in the next group post. After the pics have a video which she is in and also the other members who were on the Red Yazel stage plus there's also a Keya gal.
