Manami Higa: A trio of newish mag spreads though....
.... nothing else! However that nothing else isn't all that bad because there are forty magazine pics and if there's zero other pics perhaps that'll mean another post near the end of the month. After going about two years without a Manami post she's now had a pair in less than a month. Her third photobook will be coming out on February 24th so am hoping there will be another mag spread or two, hopefully an event for the book along with some interview pics and whatever.
Think I talked about it a bit in that January post but if you're somewhat new here you would never have realized how huge of a fave Manami was of mine. From 2011-15 she was knocking on the door to be my #1 of all time, didn't quite work out but only two actresses have topped the amount of posts she's had. On the first 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' list done in 2018 Manami slipped to the 17th position and she went through this long 'drab stretch' where her mag spreads and event pics were just way too conservative. Bit in the last two years Manami's made a rebound and it really was my fault for not doing more posts for her. In June she'll be hitting the age of 36 so she's the oldest woman who I've posted regularly about but she still looks so fabulous. So was going to do my second all time list later this Summer, with these two posts Manami should remain in the top twenty and perhaps with a busy first half of the year can move up a couple of positions.
So let's get to the spreads and there's actually going to be four of them with one being a few years old. This first set is from the October issue of Lee.
Tabiiro is a travel web magazine which features an actress as their 'Woman of the Month'. They travel to some resort area in Japan and back in November 2017 Manami had that honor, she made her trip to Senzaki which is in the Yamaguchi prefecture.
For the second time Manami is the Tabiiro 'Woman of the Month' and it's for February, this time Manami's travels took her to the Hiroshima region. There's also a pair of videos for the trip and here's one of them to view: Tabiiro video
As mentioned Manami's third photobook will be coming out out on February 24th. This final set from the January 24th issue of WPB has some outtake pics from it and she's looking mighty fine for 35 years old! I thought her first two books were superb and so didn't you viewers as they've both had such a large amount of views. I've viewed thirteen of Manami's dramas but none in the last four years so think some may need to be checked out, my top series she was in was "Majo Saiban" aka Witch Trial from 2009 which I've viewed about ten times. No recent videos except for the one above so let's go way back to 2012 for her most viewed CM ever which was for Kit Kat.
