This is the first of a mini run where four of of the next five positions all have something huge in common, actually many to me. Fave number's seven, six, five and three are all J-Pop Idols who graduated from their groups this year. That's hard to believe and those four were all in my top six for current Idols along with who I think will be numbers one and four. All four did their graduations the right way and all were very busy up until they left their groups, way more than usual. So what I'm wondering is how busy will the quartet be in 2023 and years after, hope they don't fade away and don't think they will though can't see any being nearly as busy as they were this year. Those four all made the top twelve on my 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' list, nine from that also made this year's faves list.
Of those nine Akari was the only one who finished in the same position which of course is seventh. One other time she made the yearly list which was in 2018 when she was in the second spot, the only reason it's only her second time is because of not hitting the six post mark to qualify. This is Akari's eleventh post of the year though technically her first for the 2023 'Nao Year' which began on December 1st. That's by far her most posts in a year but she usually has bigger posts than most others. All of the posts from here on out will be large though there aren't as many new activities for most of the positions as I was hoping.
So I really hope those four recent graduates who made the top seven don't disappear, sure at least one won't but Akari is someone who I do worry about to an extent. She is busy but mainly from appearing on variety shows and such, her gravure spreads from the past eight years are among my faves and hope they don't come to an end. But Akari is a woman who I truly like so much and she's someone I make the extra effort with to have posts for so will try my darndest to keep her in the spotlight here.
Wrote about 80% of this post up yesterday and guess what happened earlier today? Akari appeared at an event for Hokomeshi Shokudo and to me not many top the way she looks at events. So won't be having photos from it today and instead will have them in her next post, that'll make me try a bit harder to do one by the end of the year.
So while there's not a large amount of recent pics this will be a huge post and though many of the pics are older most had never been posted here before. Such as these SKE group cards for Christmas, few years ago they stopped releasing cards except for special activities such as new singles.
Though Akari just finished seventh on both this year's and the all time faves list she'd be in a battle with #s 5 and 14 on who I would want to be stranded on a desert island with the most! Keeping with the Christmas pics have many older ones here which once again most have never been posted before.... hope Santa thinks I was a good boy this year!!!!
Have said in just about every Akari post that no one posts more IG pics than her, not only that most are just so terrific. She doesn't need to dress skimpy to grab my attention and this batch goes from November 14th until the 30th.
For some reason Akari has never had a video of her photo shoots even though she's had over fifty gravure magazine spreads. But three months ago she did post a short video at her IG page from a Bubka photo shoot, did take some screenshots and will have them again as they're so breathtaking....
Bottom four pics are from the magazine, final one is just too alluring to describe! So as mentioned I'm really praying that her mag spreads don't come to an end, here's a semi recent one from the October 11th issue of Flash which many may not have seen as her posts are just so-so popular.
We've hit the end, as I was saying it was a huge post though not a large amount of new pics but it is worth checking out her other ten posts for 2022. Will try so hard to have Akari's next post by the end of the year which will have pics from today's event plus she does have many New Year's SKE cards that have never been posted. Will have many sweltering pics to end off with, most have been seen before but who can ever get tired of looking at them?!!!! After the pics have a brief clip from Akari's SKE September 24th concert, it was the first of three graduation shows.
