Marupi: Her already legendary first intro post!!!!

 


 Don't know why but have had a feeling for a while that many viewers were waiting for this post to happen, hope I'm right on that. The last five or so months the newbies introduced have been a hit or miss but can guarantee this newbie will be a huge HIT! Last year there were sixteen new women introduced which is a high total, am going to try to cut that in half for 2023. For now Marupi is mainly a gravure model and she's continued a recent trend for them which is that she graduated from college last March, she may look young but she hit the age of 23 in November. She did work in an office for a while but quit when it was too much to juggle two careers, think she made the right choice as she's become so popular in a short amount of time.



 Marupi isn't a singer but seems like she'd fit in so well with the BababaBambi group, she's with the same agency so maybe she can add J-Pop Idol to her resume soon! Of course Marupi is just her stage name but haven't found out what her real name is yet, hopefully for her next post and it's probably some shortened version of her real name. Gunma is where she hails from and her height is 157 cm, won't be going too far back with things as her gravure career didn't begin until last February.



 Have enough magazine spreads and three very small pictorials for about three more posts, Marupi is a busy woman so by the time I finish up her 2022 spreads there should be enough new things that have come out. Not that anything for her first intro posts could be considered old as everything will be from the past year, first off are some IG pic from last February and March.












 How about that above pic which features two huge faves of mine and you viewers! Maripu is part of the Familia agency and I must post about a dozen of their models and Idols. Another one from that agency is this other fave of mine, the pair will have the co-leads in a new drama titled "Hokago Angler Life" which of course is about fishing, the start date hasn't been announced yet.



 Marupi has come such a long way in a short period of time. She also had a role in a 2022 film and has been on many variety shows, does help that she looks so super duper! Rest of the post will be for 2022 magazine spreads, her second one was in the February 28th issue of WPB and at the time of these spreads she was 22 in age but turned 23 on November 5th.









 Marupi's second ever spread was this set from a special Flash edition called 'Best of Spring 2022', they have one of these special issues for each season.















 That was a large spread above so will end the post with this set from the April 25th issue of Young Magazine. It was Marupi's first time as a cover girl and she's had that honor at least five times since then. She does have her own YT Vlog which has some good videos but a better one is after the pics which is a video of this spread's photo shoot.
