Hinatazaka46: The Hinatazaka 'Uni's on Air' series with.... Manamo Miyata.... plus much more!

 


 What a difference having a working keyboard makes, it was a struggle to do one or two posts a day but have had eleven in the last three days. Hina does an excellent job in giving all 22 members a turn in the spotlight but of course we're always going to see more pics of the more popular members whether they're attending an event or in magazines. So in this 'Uni's on Air' series thought it'd be a good time to check out some members who we see on occasion but never have enough pics for a solo post.

 So this is Manamo's first ever solo post and would think it may be her last but she's had a fair amount of pics in group posts. One reason I had overlooked her for a while is because Manamo took a leave of absence from Hina that began last November and lasted until March, seemed that was when I was starting to become such a bigger fan of the group. One reason for the break was because of health issues but also it was to concentrate on her studies and in March she graduated from college.

                                      

 Manamo may look a bit young in these pics but obviously isn't as she did graduate from college, she'll be turning 24 next April 28th. She hails from Tokyo, is a second generation member(the oldest) who joined in 2017 and her height is a little over 158 cm. This should be a decent post as there's 89 pics and almost all are from the past year.


 That above pic and the first one are from Hina's first group photobook, wouldn't mind seeing her have one but odds aren't so high on that. In March Manamo graduated from Kokogakuin Univeristy with a degree in Japanese literature, she has something to fall back on when her Idoling days end.





 Few recent pics from the Hina blog, not a many as other members.












 Before Manamo took that hiatus she was modeling for the Ray magazine. Some pics from their site but seems when she returned from that break she didn't get that gig back.











 Only once has Manamo appeared at a 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show. That was the one held on September 15, 2020 and like most members was promoting the group's DASADA clothing line.









 Manamo has been in five mag spreads to date and has another coming out net month. But only one has been a solo set which is a shame as the more I look at these pics have been realizing how attractive Manamo is. That one solo spread is a superb set of pics from last December's issue of BLT Graph.












 Final batch are the promo pics for the 'Uni's on Air' web game, there's forty in all. But because of that hiatus Manamo has fewer than any other member so 24 are from this year and the bottom sixteen from 2020. Following the pics is Manamo's solo video from the "Kimi Shika Katan" single that came out in May, it looks back on her college days.
