Yume Hayashi: (too) Few recent happenings....

 


 Yume has become such a massive fave of you viewers, would say she's been the second or third most popular gravure model here the last two years. I've liked her immensely the past three years and she did finish in the 16th position on last year's fave's list. But don't think she'll qualify for this year's list as this is just her third post for 2021, you need six to be eligible. But this is Yume's third post in five months, shame she was so quiet for the first three months of the year. Yume is more than an alluring model as she was also a Race Queen and has done some acting work. She was also an OL up until at least last year, not sure if she's still working for some major company.



 Of course you viewers know there's been a decrease in posts this year as there's been so many restrictions the last few months for events and it appears photo shoots too. There must be thousands of gravure models in Japan but I only do posts for about 1% of them, perhaps not even that many. So those ten or so models who usually get a fair amount of posts haven't this year and it baffles me why. Seems almost all of those monthly pictorials aren't publishing them this year and why would the health crisis play such a factor in photo shoots? Can't give an answer to that as I don't know why but save for one gal bet the posts for gravure models this year has fallen by 50% or more.



 Not a huge post but had been wanting to do this for over a week now, there's 41 new pics which should be enough and of course so many are simply breathtaking. Will begin off with a few from Yume's IG account, not as many pics as usual.









 What I don't understand some times are why mag spreads are so small, especially for such an alluring woman as Yume. Often her spreads are ten or more pages yet for the August issue of Entame and the June 24th edition of Weekly Jitsuwa she only had two pages in each?!?!





 You can see how those two sets are very similar and both were promoting Yume's first photobook. This spread is too which is from the July 6th issue of SPA!.








 Final set is from the September 13th edition of WPB, top four pics are bonus ones and there's more after this batch.












 Surprised it took so long but on June 4th Yume released her first regular photobook "Yumemi Gokochi". Forget how many copies were sold but know it was in the top ten for sales in it's first three weeks. Her last post was right around then and had these fabulous pics promoting the book in that post, photo shoot took place in Okinawa.










 Have even more pics, these are from the actual PB and to date there's only one other 2021 that could top it, whewwww!!!! Shame there's no video of the photo shoot but after the pics have a tremendous video from Yume's Vlog and it's worth checking out the others she has.
