Nao Kanzaki: Most popular twenty posts since 2017 part two, positions ten to one....

 


 These list posts have really become so popular but try not to have that many as you may grow tired of them. Part one of this very mini series has garnered quite a few views but the most viewed one ever was the list for my top ten photobooks which was done at the end of December, will have an expanded version of that in May. Nothing much to add in from the first post so let's start with a few faves of you viewers that didn't have a post in the top twenty. Leading off is Kazusa and is she ever so popular here. Last year her posts had the fourth highest amount of views and the year before she was third. 

 Her problem is that she's so darn consistent. All of her posts draw a huge total of views but none get a massive amount, zero of her posts made the top 32. Also not making the list was Mizuki and she has become one of the top five popular gals here. Her photobook post done last June is currently the 23rd most viewed post since January 2017. Will do another list in two years and bet by that time that post will easily crack the top twenty along with a few others that haven't even been done yet.



 There are some surprises on the list such as how high or low certain posts finished. One surprise which was a disappointment was that Rika's "Rika" photobook post isn't among the top twenty. It finished in the 24th position and the above gal beat her by twenty views. She's such a massive fave of mine so hoped she'd make the list but all in all the 24th most popular post isn't all that bad as there's been over 3,200 posts done in the last four years.





 Let's get to that top ten which like the previous ten is dominated by photobook posts. Mainly by Idols who have seven of the most popular posts and of course Nogi leads the way. But not by a huge margin as they have have four members in the top ten while Keya had two entries, one for NMB. Like part one will have the stats and also the link to that post. Number one on the list wasn't a huge surprise as I had predicted it but positions four and six I never thought would be so popular.

#10... Misa Eto, her "Hanashi wo Kikouka" post from November 21, 2017 has 7,025 views

 Glad to see this post make the top ten and what a Nogi fave she was. Would still have Misa in my top four of all time Nogi members and though she graduated two years ago always try to include her recent pics in group posts. Haven't had one of them in a while but promise to work on one. Of the Nogi books to make the top twenty, six in all, this may be my top one. That may be a list that viewers would enjoy, my top ten/twenty Nogi books of all time.






 #9... Rena Takeda, her December 28, 2017 "Rena PB" post has 7,040 views to date.

 Tight battle as this post just had fifteen more views than the tenth position. Rena is one of the most most popular gals I've ever posted about but wasn't sure any of her posts drew a large amount of views. All draw a high number but this was the only one with over 4,000 views. She's someone in dire need of a post but there's been so few activities the last few months. No mag spreads and think that's mainly because she 'retired' from doing gravure spreads.






 #8... Asuka Saito, 7,234 views for her "Shiosai PB" post done on February 24, 2017

 Don't do it often these days but at one time if a photobook was over a hundred pics would have two posts. This book has two and the links to both posts are included. This PB came out in January 2017 and is Asuka's only one to date, why hasn't there been a second one? It's been a massive seller with over 220,00 copies sold so you know management would definitely want another book so guess it must be her decision not to another PB, she's so popular these days it does make some sense.






 #7... Miru Shiroma, 7,385 views for her "Love Rush PB" post done on March 4, 2020

 This book was one of the main reasons for doing this post. At almost 7,400 views it set a record(I think) for most views in a year though had never kept track of that stat, that'll be the standard for now on. Was wondering how that stacked up to other posts in the last four years and as you can see it's done quite well. Sure when the next list is done in two years that total will be above 10 K which would place it about fifth. Will be doing a post soon for Miru who is just too hot to describe but the post may not be an overly joyous one. That's because she announced her graduation from NMB ten days ago and the amount of Idols I follow these days is shrinking ever so lower....






 #6... Yuuka Sugai, her June 24, 2018 "Fiancee' PB" post has 7,580 views to date

 Time does help as most of the top ten posts were done a few years ago but two were from a year ago and a pair from 2020 barely missed. Slight surprise here but Yuuka has always been very popular with you viewers and wish I could do more posts for her. Keya, now Sakura, has had seven solo books but none since September 2019. Five of them members are still with the group so I think it's time we see a second one from a few of them and most sold very well too. This PB sold around 85,000 copies which is impressive to me and it's the third highest selling Keya book.






 #5... Miona Hori, her January 28, 2018 post for the "Kimirashia PB" has 7,804 views

 Bit of a surprise that of the 35 Nogi photobooks posted she has the third most popular one and it's one of my huge faves of the group. As you know now by now Miona will be graduating on March 28th but will have a special PB coming out on April 20th. I am going to truly miss her and as you may have noticed have been trying to do so many posts for her as they'll be dwindling soon.






 #4... Rikako Aida, her "R.A. photobook" from August 10, 2018 has 8,225 views to date.

 Without a doubt the biggest shock of the top twenty, I would have been shocked if this post made the top eighty! But in a way it deserve to make the list as this is one fine set of pics and I like Rikako immensely even though she only has ten posts. She's a member of the voice actress/J-Pop group Aqours who haven't had a post for a while. Their posts are so scattered, there will be four in a month then zero for six months, we're in a zero stretch right now. Remember that this list is by what posts you viewers enjoyed the most and think you've made some fine selections.






 #3.... Erika Ikuta, 14,080 views for her "Intermission PB" post done on July 11, 2019

 Almost predicted the top three in the right order, was correct with number one but thought two and three would have been the other way around. There's nothing left to say about this PB which while not my fave Nogi book is definitely the one that has the most skimpy dressed member. Kind of surprising that it would be Erika who I've always thought is a bit conservative but not in this book, whew!!!! She certainly is one looker and at 325,000 copies sold it's the third best selling PB in history.






 #2... Neru Nagahama, her "Kokokara PB" from December 31, 2017 has 15,548 views

 If you read the post for my all time fave photobooks you may remember this finished in the tenth position and is my top '46' member book. After retiring for a stretch after her Keya graduation Neru is back and is doing many activities. Did a post for her in January and said was one coming up but haven't gotten around to it but promise to soon as she's such a fave of mine. This was another huge selling book as it's sold about 210,000 copies, the top three for today have sold close to a million copies! That's amazing and I figure the top six Nogi books have sold close to 1.7 million, wow!!!!!!!









 #1... Mai Shiraishi, 24,140 views for her "Passport PB" post done on February 23, 2017

 Like #3 what else can be said about this photobook? Really nothing and did a pair of posts for it with both links right above. There were also two other posts done for the book which had event pics plus outtake ones and also some better quality pics. About a week ago this became the fifth most viewed post ever and the top four belong to one person. Fourth place has over 28,000 views and still gets many so may be tough to move up. This PB is the second best selling book in history with about 450,000 copies sold and as I've said how can she top it? Could be impossible as Mai hasn't had a regular book since this came out but did have a mini one for her October graduation.
