Chisaki Morito: 'H!P Digital photobook' #207 scans their final edition!!!!

 


 You're probably wondering 'Who's she?' and will get to that shortly. It's rare when I do an intro post for a 21 year old but there's a good reason for that though it's actually a sad occasion. As you can see in the title wrote Their final edition and that's because after seventeen years this will be the final monthly H!P Digital book and does that bum me out. At their Japanese site there's a message stating the sales will cease on September 30th and there will be no more books, no explanations on why that's happening. This has been a sad trend this year as there's been at least two other monthly digital books that have stopped and bet the total is higher.

 So this will be the final issue and thought because it's semi historical had to post the pics. This is the 83rd post here for these books and would have had more many but many were of members in their teens or were from before 2011 when I began this blog. Often these have been the highlight of a month and the pics have always been superb. The books mainly feature outtake pics from a photobook released a year or two ago so it isn't like it cost much $$ to put out a digital book as Hello Project already had the pics. This appears to be the only casualty among items at their store as new cards, photobooks and DVD's will be coming out on a regular basis, know many viewers also enjoyed these monthly books.


 Have done six prior Morning Musume posts this year but all were for members, no group posts in almost a year. And that's because MM hasn't released a single this year and that baffles me, have looked but there's no info on one planned for this year's final three months. So let's get to today's member who is a popular one and has been with Morning Musume since 2017. Chisaki was originally a member of Country Girls from 2014 until 2017 but they were disbanded by H!P even though their popularity was growing, some members graduated while a few others were placed in different Hello Project groups. Obviously Chisaki was one and though the new rule here is that a gal needs to be 22 in age to be introduced this was a special occasion and she will be turning 22 in less than five months. She was also in edition #206 so that could be an upcoming post.

 Chisaki is more popular than I thought, she's had four photobooks already. This set of pics are from her third one that's titled "Say Cheese!" and came out in June 2019. Photobook #5 will be coming out on October 15th so perhaps I'll do another intro post for Chisaki if there's some mag spreads promoting the book. Let's get to the final edition ever and as usual this collection has an even one hundred pics, photo shoots took place in Kyushu and the Kerama Islands. There was a DVD that came out with the book, there's four parts to it on YT and have the first following the pics. EDIT: Yet again again another YT video has bit the dust....
