Hinatazaka46: A little(huge) bit of this and that for 2022 #20....

 


 Akari's first ever solo post done back in August was immensely popular, have been wanting to have another but that hasn't quite worked out though will try hard to have that second by the end of the month. If that doesn't work out will have a post in November for her photobook and know her huge fan base will enjoy it. This Saturday the Autumn 'Girls Award' show will be taking place. But was just at their site and no members are scheduled to attend, usually eight do and there will be seven Keya gals there so what's up with that?! However think the entire group will be there for a mini performance to promote the new single. For so long Hina had 22 members, it's now down to 21 after a June graduation. But that number is now up to 33 as a dozen fourth generation members have been added and to me more isn't always better with J-Pop groups, looked what happened with Nogi! We probably wont be hearing much of them for a while and I don't plan on discussing them in these group posts.



 Gulp, some pictures are worth more than a thousand words! Then again, pics like those two above can also leave you speechless. October 26th is the release date for Hina's eighth single "Tsuki to Hoshi ga Odoru Midnight", for the first time Kyoko will be the center. Have posted the PV for the song twice so for today will have a different video that will be at the end. In the last group post had half of the member's pics for the single, here's the other half.












 One member who I've always liked but even more so as of late is Suzuka. Did a pair of posts for her earlier this year and have been wanting to do more of them, that's another thing that hasn't worked out. But at least she usually has many pics in these group posts and here's promo cards for Hina's seventh single "Boku Nanka" that came out in April and don't think they've been posted before.












 She'd be my #1 pick to have the next photobook! Second in that category would be Shiho and she too is someone who is so difficult to have solo posts for. There's two members who I post about often but besides them it's not easy to do solo posts for a member on a consistent basis. Have some recent modeling pics from the CanCam site along with a few blog pics.











 Also have some blog pics for Mikuni and as you can see she just celebrated a birthday which took place on September 27th. Will admit she's looking so darn good and she could pass for being 22 but is now only nineteen in age so will hold off on doing any posts for her.














 Those bottom three pics were from the 'Uni's on Air' web game, they always have special ones for a member's birthday. Also with game pics are Nao who turned turned twenty on September 7th and Hiyori who also hit that age on the 28th. Did her first ever solo post ten days ago which has had just a so-so amount of views and thought she'd be really popular.












 Besides a shortage of magazine spreads what I've also noticed the last 3-4 months is the decrease in modeling pics for Hina and Keya members, can't give a reason on why it's happened. But do have some ultra superb new pics for Mirei from the Non-no site.











 There hasn't been as many pics for the 'Uni's on Air' game as of late, the usual amount for Keya but not for Hina. However do have many new promo pics for their 'Mysterious Library' game, this first batch features Akari and Hina.









 Not sure if the theme for October is Donuts or just sweets. Have another pair of members who are Konoka and Suzuka, as mentioned she always has many pics in these group posts.









 Am holding some things back so there can be another post at the end of the week, really hoping some members take a stroll on the catwalk at this Saturday's 'Girls Award' show. After the pics is a new video from the single, name of the tune is "10byo Tenshi" aka Jyybyou Tennshi.. For the second time in about five weeks will end off with a Hinano spread as she has the only one. Least it's a good sized spread and is from a special BLT issue called 'Summer Candy'.
