Hinatazaka46: The first.... First generation post!(?)

 

 Don't know if a post like this has eve been done before, don't think so but if it did happen had to be when they were known as Hiragana46. The post will end off with a new large magazine spread and had noticed it just featured the nine remaining first generation members. So thought why not have a post devoted to those gals who I do like quite a bit, some members you see quite often in group posts but not all and do give everyone a turn in the spotlight.

 There's the nine members from the first generation and they've only lost one since they were formed in November 2015. Never considered Neru to be a 2G member as she went right to the main group so only losing one in over six years is almost unheard of these days in the Idol world. Two members I do solo posts for so you won't see them until the final mag spread. Then there's group captain Kumi who also won't be having any other pics. Her 26th birthday takes place on January 22nd and am holding back her recent pics for a post around that date as she's never had a solo one yet. Lot of pics for today but it has been kind of a quiet stretch for Hina as of late though they're still busier than any other Idol group. No news of any single, album or events coming up though there will be a photobook in March which will be for the 2G member Hina.

 So of the other six members everyone will be represented with a batch of pics in this post and there's a bit of variety to it. Will lead off with the youngest member of 1G who is Yuka who will be turning 21 in May. Her height is 154 cm and for some reason always thought that Hina's members were are on the tall side but actually they seem to be one of the shorter J-Pop groups. These are some group cards for the 'W-Keyaki Fes' that took place in July and some promo ones for their fifth single.

 More 2021 cards which are for Mana and have to admit I know less about her than any other member but she did have a solo post for the 'Uni's on Air' game series.

 How about some new pics from Hina's blog and these are of Sarina, have many more of her coming up in this post.

 More new blog pics which are for Ayaka. She's one attractive woman and she used to be a model for the JJ magazine which I think has gone kaput, hard to believe no other site has signed her up.

 Mentioned how short of a group Hina is and at a just over 153 cm Mei is their shortest member but also their most athletic. She's in the new issue of Young Jump that features her in a spread with a member from both Nogi and Keya. Don't know which group post to put the spread then but these are some superb outtake pics from the photo shoot.

 As many Hina fans have seen there's been many solo posts for the members and their promo pics for the 'Uni's on Air' web game. Have just about finished those posts but not every member had a solo one and am including many of those other pics in group posts. There's a pair of members who haven't had any pics in that series and first off is this set for Mirei which go from November to May.

 Second batch of promo pics for the game are with Sarina who has never had so many pics in a post. Like the above set there's 28 of them which go from November to May.

 Last up is the huge new mag spread that was mentioned in the beginning and is from the February issue of Brody. All nine 1G members are in the set and their names are on the solo pics. After the spread is an oldie video of the first generation members that hadn't been posted before. It's a subbed video for the theme song of their 2017 drama "Re:Mind" which I really enjoyed.
