Hinatazaka46: The Hinatazaka 'Uni's on Air' series with.... Kumi Sasaki plus Happy 26th Birthday!

 

 These solo posts featuring promo pics for the 'Uni's on Air' web game are winding down. Think there just may be one Keya member to get to and that'll be it but there will be more of those pics in regular member's posts. So this is the first solo post ever for Kumi but bet she's had over 500 pics in group posts as I've always liked her quite a bit. But I'm curious on whether she's popular among Hina fans over in Japan? Have no clue on that and am also curious on whether her solo posts will garner many views, can see having one or two more coming up very soon.

 Bit early with this as birthday #26 doesn't take place until January 22nd, two Nogi members also celebrate a birthday on that date. But thought why wait a week to do this post as I'm sure not many new happenings will be taking place. So besides being Hina's Captain Kumi is also the oldest member plus at being over 167 cm she's the tallest member in Hina who I've noticed is the shortest of the three '46' groups. So while Kumi will be turning 26 have a feeling a graduation is not around the corner for her or the other members who are close in age. Hina used to be called Hiragana46 until February 2019 when they 'broke away' from being Keya's Undergirls and as they say the rest is history. So the members got a late start in a way being in their own group and by 2019 so many were twenty in age or older. So because of that wouldn't doubt if we see a few members stick around until they're thirty which to me is a positive thing.

 A drama I need to view again is "Re:Mind" which was Hina's first group show but at the time they were still with Keya. Of all the '46' group shows that's my second favorite one and to me Kumi was by far the best of the group which just had first generation members in the show. Did recap the series if you want to check those posts out but actually recommend viewing it instead or then again you could do both....

 There's over ninety pics for today yet am holding a huge amount back for at least one more post. So won't have any Kumi pics from Hina's blog nor any mag spreads but the only ones I have are older. Here's some terrific birthday pics from years gone by....

 Hmmmm, once again a '46' member is caught fraternizing with the enemy! In this case I'll let it go and a requirement I need to have for Idol posts is that they need to have pics with Risa!!!!

 Sigh, even more fraternizing with the enemy but once again will let it pass....

 There's some good news as I just found out a few days there's going to be a 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show on March 21st. So many '46' members take a stroll on the catwalk at those shows along with many of my fave actresses so am looking forward to that as there's been such a shortage of events. These superb pics are from the January 12, 2019 TGC show held at Toyama.

 To appear at those shows you need to be a model for a magazine or some sort of fashion site. Kumi is as she's a model for the Ray magazine and these pics are all from the beginning of December. So many Hina members model for a site but to me these Ray pics are the best ones from any member.

 May seem like a smallish post but there's 95 pics and this is the final batch. Have forty promo pics for the 'Uni's on Air' game and they go from November 2021 back to February. But am holding back all of Kumi's 2020 pics for her next post and have so many pics seems as though it could be done tomorrow! After the pics is her video from Hina's 5th single which came out in May, "Kimi Shika Katan".
