Keyakizaka46: The first endearing post for... Hikaru Morita!

 


 Don't know why I think so but have a feeling this and any future posts for her will be very popular. For the last few months have been wanting to do this first solo post but it somehow never worked out. That was a bit odd to me as Hikaru is one of Keya's busiest members and the last two years bet she's appeared in more magazines than any other Keya gal. Now that this first one is done sure future ones will be much easier to do and am hoping there can be many more. As is the case for most members you won't be seeing any gravure pics from Hikaru which is fine by me as she looks so appealing the way she is and though I'm not certain doubt if she would ever have a regular photobook.



 Have to admit for a while really didn't care for Hikaru but that was never her fault. A little after the second generation joined is when Keya went on that long stretch with no new music and had such a decrease in activities so never had a chance to get to know the new members better. To be honest these last few months have been noticing her so much more and I like what I see(!), though it's her first solo post she must have hundreds of pics in group posts. Hikaru is shortest current member of the three '46 groups as her height is just 149.8 cm, think only one Nogi gal who left seven years ago was shorter. 



 Keya's second generation joined the group in December 2018 but they weren't on their eighth and final single which came out two months later. So it wasn't until December 2020 and the name change to Sakura that the members appeared on a song. That was 22 months without any new music and don't think Keya has quite recovered from it. The first single with the new name was "Nobody's Fault" and Hikaru was the center, also for their next single which was "Ban". You ever notice how the shorter members are often the centers but very rarely the tallest ones? Hikaru does post a lot of pics at Keya's group 'Diary' blog but very few just of her. These are really the only solo pics from the past two months but least one member she's with does stand out.... I really like that bottom pic.












 That duo does have a lot of pics together but don't think enough for a 'Pairs Post'. Here's another superb partner who is from their rival group Hina. Of course it's Kyoko and they look terrific together, most of the pics are from the 2021 drama "Borderless". Have only been able to find the first episode of that series subbed and that's a shame as I would like to view the drama.









 She's one of the few '46' members who don't tower over Hikaru! Have some promo pics here for the 'Uni's on Air' web game, the first four are new for the game's third anniversary. The other four hadn't been posted which were special ones for her July 10th birthday.









 Hikaru has been a model for the ar magazine since February 2021 but don't have any new modeling pics for today. She's usually in their magazines but almost always has only a two page spread, these are from their June, August, September and October issues.









 Here's some ultra outstanding pics from the September 3rd Autumn 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show. I really dig that dress and she was promoting Keya's new group credit card for AEON.












 Hikaru really looks so appealing at those shows, shame there hasn't been any regular Keya group events this year. More marvelous pics that are from last Saturday's Autumn 'Girls Award' show that was held in Chiba and she took her stroll on the 'Grapefruit Moon' stage. 















 Final set for this post and hope it's the beginning of many of them! Hikaru is often the cover girl for the magazines she appears in and has that honor for this brand new set from Weekly Shonen Sunday which is dated for October 26th. Following the pics is an AEON video which has been in other posts. It's my all time Keya video which features her and my top two members, it's actually a short movie which is subbed in English and highly recommend giving it a watch.
