Welcome to my humble site....

Hajimemashite minna san....welcome to my site on my fave Japanese Pop Culture likes such as dramas, movies, magazine scans, promo events etc. Mainly concentrate on my faves...Risa Watanabe... Kyoko Saito... Yui Kobayashi....Miyuki Watanabe.... Nene Shida.... if you're a fan at all of any of them then you've come to the right place(!) but many others are featured here besides them. Do mainly quick reviews on things I've watched, try to make the reviews brief, quick to read through with not too many spoilers, just whether they're good or bad and why I thought so plus whether you may find them enjoyable. Many, many screenshots are included from everything I've watched plus any video trailers if they're available. Hope you find something that interests you, don't hesitate to comment, arigato gozaimasu!

Nogizaka46: The distinguished 'Minami Umezawa post' #18....

 


 Not the largest of posts but at this point I'm kind of glad to do any plus it's rare when two posts in a row feature someone with the same first name. Minami just may be my top female name and there are a lot of faves who do have that name. After I wrote that above post up two days ago was reading how in Japan and the especially the Tokyo area they're imposing even more restrictions on what activities can be held and which ones can't. Guess that's one of the reasons for lack of posts recently and those new restrictions are supposed to be going on for at least a month. Not much we can do about that and if this slowdown continues for a while you know the biggest reason for that.



 For a while have always thought Minami is Nogi's most sexiest member ever and perhaps more so these days. As mentioned above Minami just may be my top name but if I had a list of my faves with that name this one would just finish in third place, the two above are just hotter than the Sun! So while not a massive post there are fifty new pics and her last post was just done on March 1st.


 Next week Keya will be releasing their second single under their new Sakura name. When one has a new single the other two '46' groups tend to step back and let the other have the spotlight for a while. That hasn't quite worked out like it has in the past as there's been so few Keya happenings but the next post I'll be working on will be with such a good mate of Minami's....






 Don't know when it'll be completed but Beam Subs is subbing the 'Eizouken' movie that came out in September. I enjoyed the drama so will be looking forward to that and will recap the film. Few recent pics here from her Nogi blog.








     Have some superb cards which have never been posted before for Nogi's 'Always With You' series, top ones are newish while most are from last year.















 About two years ago a OL campaign for five Nogi members began with the With site. But over those two years Minami has been the only member the site retained and her pics there usually rate an A+. Some recent ones from their site and a few are also in their mags but these are 'clean versions'.












 Have a trio of spreads from their mags, first off is from the March edition.








 So few Nogi mag spreads lately, not just for Minami but every member. Two more With spreads, five pages each from their April and May issues.











 We've already hit the end, lot of pics but not all that many new activities. For a finale will have some beyond amazing pics from Minami's first photobook that came out on September 29th. Will have the full book coming up soon enough, some of these sweltering ones were in previous posts but some are also brand new for here. After the pics you can view a short video for this year's Valentine's Day.
