Yuuka Sugai: Her invigorating.... 'Happy 27th Birthday' post....

 

 That top photo is from her new photobook, should be a crime a pic can be so perfect.... but it's not her best one from the book!!!! Though Yuuka had a good amount of pics in group posts she didn't have a solo one this year until October 13, now this makes four in seven weeks. But of course they'll be rapidly slowing down as there's often a surge in activities when someone graduates but hope to have at least two more posts coming up. Was thinking most posts must have fifty or more new pics in them, multiply that by 700 posts in a year it means there's over 35,000 new pics! So you can understand why it's almost impossible to have any kind of list for my top twenty or so photos in a year. But some do stand out and are unforgettable, this pic here is one you've seen and may in every future post. It's also from her newish book and I just may rank it as my fifth fave pic of the year, gulp....

 I'm thinking Yuuka's next post will be for her farewell appearance on Keya's 'Soko' variety show, she had a whole episode devoted to her and just waiting for it to be subbed. Plus what I may also do is collect all of her 'Uni's on Air' game pics for a post and have some other things in it such as a new mag spread coming out which hopefully won't be her final one. So after those two posts it'll be a rarity for a Yuuka solo post but will always include anything new from her in Keya's group posts. Just did one for her two weeks ago and wonder if I should have waited as there haven't been many new things since then. However this could be her top post to date as there's many pics and such from the past, so many have never been seen here before.

 For a change am doing a birthday post on the exact day as November 29th is Yuuka's 27th birthday. I'm going to miss her and so aren't many out there as her solo posts have always been very popular and wish there had been more of them. No b-day pics for this year yet but do have plenty of oldies, some have been seen before while many are also new.

 Few IG pics from the last two weeks but the top one is actually for her upcoming stage play. Yuuka starred in many of them when she was with Keya and had the lead role in a few of them. Bottom one is with the group's new captain and she's overdue for a post. The two above them are from an Anan photo shoot and I've always wished she had been a model with some site or magazine.

 "Neo Bakumatsu Junjoden" is the title of that stage play which will open in Tokyo on January 28th and then move on to Osaka. The pics below are from a new interview with the Nikkan Sports site where the play is discussed though not too much else, here's the link to it: Nikkan Sports site

 Mentioned that Yuuka has a new mag spread coming out, was wrong on that as there's two of them! The other I just heard about is for Weekly Shonen and here's some advance pics from it. She's also going to have a book coming out next month which collects her columns from the Nikkei Entertainment site and will have more info in her next post which may not be too far away(hopefully).

 But just in case that next post doesn't happen in the next three weeks here's some pics to get you in the holiday mood, that top photo is ancient!

 Gulp again, is my stocking big enough for all three?! In Yuuka's last post had some older promo cards for the "Otome Kagura: Requiem for a Zombie" game that came out in the Spring of 2019. Though the cards are older had never posted any of them for her or many others. Have more for today and the game featured the voices from about twenty members of the '46 groups, her character was named Yukiho.

 Been a while since a 'Pairs Post' was done and they seem to be so much more harder to do these days. One thing that's never been done is a 'Trio Post' which may be impossible, but if one could be done it'd be hard to top this threesome, whewwww....

 So while there's new upcoming mag spreads don't have any new ones for this post. So let's go way back in time for this superb set form the April 30, 2018 issue of Young Magazine which featured outtake pics from Yuuka's first photobook which was set in Paris.

 That first book sold very well, think the total sold was close to 90,000 copies. Yuuka's second book came out three weeks ago, in it's first two weeks it's sold a respectable 40,000 copies and photobooks don't sell nearly as well as they did years ago. So will end off with some pics from the new book and the top three haven't been seen here before, once again shouldn't it be a crime that someone can look so perfect?! No recent videos and hasn't that become the norm for Keya members? So after the pics have a real oldie PV titled "Namiuchigiwa wo Hashiranai ka?" that's from their fifth single. Yuuka was part of the subgroup Aozora to MARRY and now all five gals have departed.
