Hinatazaka46: Sigh, if you're not too tired of them yet....

 


 Hmmmm, just popped into my tiny mind but could the 'tired of them yet?' be referring to the above?!?! If that's the case know the answer would be zero fans(!!), have had many recent Hina posts but so may make this the last group one for about two weeks. Hope to have another Kyoko post very soon, she's in a fierce battle to be my #1 fave of the year. Two reasons for this post, one being that I had so many pics to get to and will still have many more left over after today. Second is because the post below this is the recap for the eighth episode of the group's "Koeharu!" drama and thought this would be a nice lead in. Actually there's a third reason which is that these Hina members are just so likable and they may have become my top current group.... hmmmm, seems as though they want to celebrate that!!!!



 (Two days later) Okay, am now recovered and let's get on to things. As mentioned the next post is for their "Koeharu!" drama and it's one I'm enjoying immensely as it hasn't been nearly as fluffy as I imagined, two more episodes to go with the recaps. Have a few behind the scenes pics from the drama.












 Mirei plays the heroine Meiko in the series, she was also in the "Kakegurui Twin" drama that ended two months ago. Subs haven't been completed for it but will within the month. Have viewed the first four shows and undecided whether to recap it or not, it's been somewhat okay though not as good as season one and large gaps between subs being available hasn't helped. Mirei is also a model for the Non-no magazine, some new pics from their site but not as many as other models.








 Every weekly issue of Friday features a two page spread of the group called 'Hina Satsu', there was even a photobook of this series which has been a massive seller. These are sets from the past seven issues going from July 9th back to May 26th.















 How about some new promo pics for the 'Uni's on Air' web game? Sounds like a good idea to me and these pics are always super duper, the game features members from both Hina and Keya. In 2 1/2 weeks they'll be doing a concert together at the 'Hina-Fes'. Last post had four members with four pics each, same for today with this batch featuring Miku, Shiho, Mirei and Miho.

















 Akari has been superb as Mana in the current drama. Last post she had a solo spread and have another for today as she was the cover girl for the June 16th issue of Weekly Shonen.








 Most Hina girls are in their twenties which is good as I prefer not to post about members younger than that and rarely do. But I do like Miku immensely who seldom is in these group posts but you'll be seeing more of her, what an attractive face she has. Miku is the cover girl for the July issue of Bubka and will have her spread in the next post but here's a primer of some superb outtake pics.















 Will end off with a spread from that Bubka issue which features Mei who hasn't had many pics lately in these posts, on August 23rd she'll appropriately celebrate her 23rd birthday. Never have many music videos in these posts but have one today after the pics. It's the PV for Hina's fourth single "Sonna Koto Nai yo" which is their most viewed video ever with over 21 million views. At over 650,000 copies sold it's also Hina's top selling single.

  2. Hmmmm, my internet connection is fading quickly here in the middle of the Coral Sea but least the five are tending to my needs! Hmmmm again, perhaps if a storm arises we could do a remake of 'Gilligan's Island', 'Nao's Island' sounds like a hit show though would us six want cameras....
