Hinatazaka46: A little(lot) of this and that for 2022 #1....

 

 Been getting a bit worried about what's been up with Kyoko these last few months. Her only regular post since September was for finishing sixth on this year's faves list and even that post really didn't have all that many new things. She is such a massive fave of mine and was my #2 Idol for 2021, she's not entirely quiet as far as activities go but what a decrease in them lately. We'll give her a pass for December as that's the slowest month of the year for anyone, the only reason it wasn't noticeable here was because of the yearly lists and posts for photobooks. But in two weeks things should be back to normal, if there's a slight slowdown with posts you'll know why.

 

 There's been over ten solo posts but this is the first group one in nearly two months. Those solo posts turned out decent and there will be a quartet who will continue to have those kinds of posts in the future. December is a slow month for J-Pop groups outside of appearing on those end of the year special music shows. As the title says this is post #1 for the year and I will be working so hard to have number two tomorrow, will say why in the final segment. Only problem may be will there be any pics let over after this post? Hina did have a pair of X-Mas converts on December 24th and 25th but haven't found a video of it and hope I can, few pics from the shows.

 Though not a lot of variety for this post there's over 130 pics so will hold on to 25 for hopefully a post tomorrow. One member who hasn't slowed down on her activities is Miku who was the center for the "Tteka" single, new holiday pics for the 'Hina Koi' web game.

 Group captain Kumi will be turning 26 on January 22nd and for some odd reason she's never had a solo post, odd because I really like her a lot and she was the best part of the "Re:Mind" drama. So on that birthday will have a solo post for her, any luck there may be two! That's also the birthday for a pair of Nogi members, here's some recent modeling pics from the Ray magazine site.

 Almost all of those solo posts since mid November have been for 'Uni's on Air' and promo pics for the web game. But am not going to have posts for everyone and instead will have twenty of their newest pics in these group posts. For today we'll lead off with Hiyori, don't know if it'd be true but I bet if she had a photobook it would be mind blowing and sure it'll eventually happen.

 Second set of 'Uni's on Air' promo pics will be for Miho and she'll be turning 22 next month. Don't know how many remember but she had Hina's first photobook which was released on January 17, 2019. But it was one month before they broke away from Keya and had been known at the time as Hiragana46. Wasn't too high of a selling book but if it came out today bet it would have been very successful, do have the book which has never been posted so if you want to see it make a comment. Title of it is "Hidamari" and while a solid book there's been so many better....

 There was more group posts than ever in 2021 for Hina but one thing that was lacking to an extent were magazine spreads. Just have one for today and hope I overlooked some so they can be included in the next post, this set is from the December issue of Bubka. Don't have the cover girls as those are Hina's youngest members so they'll have to wait a while before being included in group posts. But there are three pairs of members that were also in the magazine, they're Ayaka and Hiyori who are followed by Sarina and Suzuka, ending off are the duo of Yuuka and Manamo.

 The main reason for wanting to have a post tomorrow is because of the group's 'Aimashou' variety show. For today have fifty screenshots from episode #125 however it was part one of two! Between them there's a hundred screenshots which are too many for a post so want to have part #2 tomorrow before you forget what took place. Which is what I did as I did jot some notes on what took place but threw it away!!!! I am getting so forgetful lately on things but if you follow the screenshots from the first one they follow exactly what took place in this episode, better than watching it!

 Briefly it was to see how talented the members are at drawing and creating poems. This is the best of the '46' group shows and the pair of hosts are the Audrey comedy team. Part two has who the overall winner is and while not a must watch did find the two shows quite enjoyable. My money would have been on Yuuka to be #1 in both categories, to me she seems to be the smartest Idol in the three '46' groups. Mild spoiler as she wasn't but besides being so intelligent she's also a barrel of laughs on this show. So as mentioned start with the first screenshot and you won't miss anything that took place, Kyoko is also a very talented artist and she does well on every variety show she appears on. You should notice but it was kind of a combination of drawing and creating a poem/saying.
