Miona Hori: Her wondrous second post-Nogi post....
Second post since her Nogi graduation but before that there were 42 solo ones and can't think of many Idols who have topped that figure in the last 3-4 years. So while there may not be a post every month or so like there once was Miona appears to be one of those ex-Idols who is going to have somewhat of a successful career, gals like that are far and few between. Didn't look at the numbers but it almost seems as my ex-Nogi faves get almost as many posts as the current members do and with Nogi releasing their 27th single two weeks ago really surprised they haven't been much busier. Miona certainly has been an active gal as though this is her first post in six weeks it's her eighth in six months.
So that means Miona has once again qualified for the yearly faves list. In the last three years she's gone form 14th to eleventh and all the way up to number two for 2020. Don't think she'll be as high this year but would still expect her to be in the top five and the mate to her left above may be the current #1 for this year. Hope the fave's list will include twenty women which it has the last five years. To date nine have qualified with six or more posts, another eleven need one or two more and am 100% confident they will. That makes twenty there but really need to have 28 or hopefully more eligible which would make the list much better and just because someone will have six posts doesn't mean they automatically would make the list. There's another ten with 2-3 posts and am really hoping they'll step up a bit with a busy second half of the year so we'll see what happens by late November when the list starts.
Bit of an odd post as far as they pics go. There's at least fifty new ones yet none from any events and the only spread is a tiny one. Yet the pics all rate an A+ in my book, all are from the past month save for this batch of Nogi SR-Fes cards which had never been posted before.
Miona now has her own fan site but you need to be a member to see more pics and such. Have the link to it here along with a huge amount of terrific IG pics from the last month: Fan club
To me Miona was been a decent actress in Nogi's dramas and other special shows, less said about "Hot Gimmick" the better! She's going to have her first lead role in a drama that will be starting on July 13th titled "Saretagawa no Blue". It'll be a midnight series airing on MBS/TBS, late night shows are always much better than prime time dramas and of course will be doing posts for the series.
Hopefully there will some sort of event for at as she hasn't appeared at one this year. No interviews or other things for the drama yet but Miona did do a pair of them for her guest appearance on the 'I want to have a Romance ~ Kiss or Kiss~' drama that aired on Abema-TV, these are from 'TheTV;jp' site.
That gal was her co-star in those that appearance, more interview pics for the special drama from the 'This Kiji' site, dressed the same but all are solo pics.
On April 20th Miona released her third photobook which was for her graduation, have had many promo ones for the book but not these five and how about those top two! To date it's sold about 40,000 copies and what I've noticed is that these Nogi graduation photobooks sell much less than regular ones. You'd think the sales would be much higher as odds are it's the member's final ever PB.
Will have an encore viewing of some of the other pics from the book in case you missed them. Am still up in the air on whether to have the list on who the most popular gals were for the first half of the year. If it's a busy weekend probably won't do it, if it's slow then expect to see one. To my surprise the last two years Miona's posts have been among the ten most popular ones, last year she was seventh.
No recent mag spreads save for this three page set from the July issue of ar. But with her new drama coming out would expect there to be many for July, that could be wishful thinking.
Some of those pics above are in this final batch but these are a bit better as they're 'clean versions'. All are from the ar site and to me these are better than most spreads, Miona has been a model with them since December 2016. A new interview video just came out today for Miona's upcoming drama which you can view after the pics.
