Hinatazaka46: A little(huge) bit of this and that for 2022 #7....

 

 The last group post was done only a week ago but it's been the most heavily viewed one of the year for the gals. Bet a huge reason was starting the post off with Hina and some pics that hadn't been posted before from her first photobook. Do have the book but won't be posting the entire thing for a while as not to affect sales but will have a another post for her after April 1st. As far as sales of the book go they've been solid but personally thought it'd be a little higher. After two weeks a little over 79,000 copies have been sold which is a decent amount but there were 140,000 books printed.

 Let's get on with things for as usual this is a huge post and there's no getting around that for these gals. Lot of pics for today but perhaps not as much variety but will have another group post next week and perhaps two of them. Hope everyone likes the promo pics for the 'Uni's on Air' web game because I certainly do and you've probably noticed that in these posts. Have many new ones to get to but will space them out a bit and have four members for today. There will be four pics from February along with four for Easter, first pairing is for Suzuka and Sarina.

 Second batch of promo pics for the web game are with Yuka and Mei. You haven't been seeing Shiho in these posts, been trying to have a solo one for her which hasn't worked out.... yet....

 In every issue of Friday there's a mini two page spread titled 'Hina Satsu'. This batch goes backwards from their March 15th to February 22nd issues.

 On March 1st the Spring 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show was held. A total of seven members took a stroll on the catwalk but I can remember when we used to see ten or more. One member who did was the group's captain Kumi who though a model for the Ray magazine too her stroll on the 'TGC Sustainability Stage', will have many new Ray pics for her in upcoming posts.

 Even more pics from the TGC show with Hiyori who took her stroll on the 'Re:Edit' stage. The goal when doing these group posts is to feature as many members as possible, think I'm doing a good job at that. Between the last post, this one, the next group post and the two recent solo posts think every member will have their own mini section which is something I can't do with the other '46 groups.

 Like most Idol groups there hasn't been as many Hina mag spreads this past year. But what I've noticed is how huge they all are so this one here is almost as large as three regular spreads, Will have it in two sections with the 'Sasaki Girls' leading off, surprised we haven't seen more of Kumi and Mirei together and they're the cover girls for the April 1st issue of Young Gangan.

 Fourteen more pages from the issue and the names of the members are on the pages.

 Final part for this post and at one time had a backlog of fifteen episodes of Hina's 'Aimashou' variety show to view, have now whittled it down to three. In the last group post had screenshots and a recap for episode #147 which was the first part of a contest. Will make this recap brief and this was part two of that contest which aired on February 27th. The regular hosts Audrey were absent again and filling in was the comedian Hamatoni who has made several appearances on this show. The contest was between members who had chosen their favorite segment for the past year and wanted it to air again. In the previous show Mikuni was the grand winner and her segment to air again was a fun one. The contest was shorter this time and once again a key figure in the battle was another comedian who is named Kishi and he was also in the previous episode.

 He's not an Idol fan though he has appeared on this show before. The object was to make Kishi become a fan and perhaps even date the member who tried to 'seduce' him!!!! First up was Kyoko and her performance definitely got my blood boiling, she could be the most alluring Idol! Well, Kishi didn't choose her as his fave of the members who tried to sway his mind about liking Idols and instead it was Hina who must have showed Kishi some pics from her photobook! ****One thing I have to say is how I hate those face guards members have to wear at times, that's why I didn't take more screenshots. After Hina's segment from last August was aired there was only about four minutes to go in the show so mainly some members reminisced about their top segments form the past year. These screenshots go in order of what took place in the show and may have another recap in the next group post.
