Hiyori Hamagishi: Her mesmerizing and gigantic second post!
Two days ago did another solo post for a member and said there would be another pair coming up which is true, there will be another later on today. But actually it's three coming up as this is a 'bonus post', one that I had been working on for a while and could have done this a few weeks back. For a while will mainly do posts for the members and skip having group ones. A lot of the attention lately has been for the new fourth generation members, especially on their 'Aimashou' variety show. Hope Hina doesn't do what Nogi has done in the past which is to overwhelm us with the new members and ignore the older ones who are the reasons we became fans of the group.
This is Hiyori's second solo post, the first was done last September for her birthday. For a while thought that would be the most unpopular post ever for a Hina member but just checked and as time has gone on the amount of views has really increased, shame I can't have these on a more consistent basis. I really like Hiyori and would love to see her have the next Hina photobook but have the strong feeling that's not going to happen.
If you are a Hiyori fan then this could be your top post of the year so far! Have over seventy new pics plus a few oldies so there could be well over ninety of them. Let's begin off with some Hina cards, the first seven are for the group's last single "Midnight" that was released on October 26th, the rest are for Valentine's Day and no member has a huge amount of those.
Hiyori does post a good amount of photos at the Hina group blog, these are all from mid December and that first photo gets an A++++ from me!
Hiyori was recently in her first stage play which was titled "Odd Taxi". It was supposed to have been done last July but was cancelled due to the virus. But it did eventually take place as it opened in Tokyo on January 25th for eight shows and then went to Osaka for another three. These pics are from a January 24th event to promote it, also in the cast was a current AKB member who is Yui Oguri and I've always liked so one day will do some posts for her.
Hiyori was also at today's 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show that was held in Wakayama which is about fifty miles south of Osaka. Not too many pics from the event as it was just held a few hours ago, she took her stroll on the Rage Blue stage.
Hiyori is a model for the With magazine though they no longer have print editions, these are new pics from the past month at their site. Also models for the magazine are one member each from Keya and Nogi, what I've noticed is that one month the modeling pics are for the Keya member, the next month for the Nogi gal and so on....
Have some terrific Hiyori promo pics for the 'Uni's on Air' web game, top four are for February, then four more from January and December while the bottom quartet is a special set of pics.
Those above special pics were for the game's sporadic 'Precious Pair' collection, in that bottom pic their heights look the same but Hiyori is 13 cm taller! At 167 cm she's Hina's second tallest member but it is hard to notice her height in solo pics. No recent magazine spreads so will end off with a semi older one from the June 2, 2021 issue of Weekly Shonen Sunday and think it was Hiyori's solo cover. Not many new videos which is common for Hina members but do have one after the pics of the event for the "Odd Taxi" stage play.
