This is one of those 'spur of the moment' posts, wanted to have more than just one for today. Was planning on having a rather large group post on Sunday but then I thought why not have two medium sized ones which I think most viewers prefer. Even though Keya has been a bit too quiet considering they just had a single come out yesterday there has been a good amount of recent solo posts. Of course Yui had one and I work harder to have posts for her than almost anyone else. It's been a while but hope to have a solo post for Hono by the end of the month. I like her quite a bit and so don't you viewers, she just may be Keya's most popular member here these days. Her photobook post was the fourth most popular one here for 2023, if you didn't know Rei will have the next book.
"Sakurazaka", the group's 14th single, was released two days ago. Sales to date for those two days total 311,000 copies sold which seems to be similar to their previous three singles. Good to see sales haven't dropped too much but when are they ever going to increase? While the main song is a decent tune my fave happens to be "Cool" and the video of that was in a post two days ago. Have the link to the song again as you can't embed Keya videos on blogs, some of these pics are from behind the scenes and the song is subbed in English:
"Cool" video
Though
Yuuka graduated over three months ago said I would keep tabs on her as she's such a fave of all of us. Will include any news in these group posts as there probably won't ever be enough things for a solo post. She just opened her own site on February 12th and the top eight pics are from it, the bottom five are recent ones from her IG page.... link to her new site:

How about that bottom pic(!), it's from last week and first time I've ever seen her with
Mai Shinuchi and hope it's not the last time!!!! A member you rarely see in these group posts is Keya's other
Yui and have noticed her looks have really improved the last year. Getting older is one reason for that and next month will be celebrating her 21st birthday, good time for her first ever solo post? These pics are recent ones from the group's 'Diary' blog.
Of course in that bottom pic is my #1
Yui, also my number one woman for 2022! She just had a post four days ago but in the meantime did upload these photos to her IG page, most members still post photos at the group blog.
Naturally have some brand new promo pics for the 'Uni's on Air' web game, still can't believe they didn't have the theme of Valentine's for February. Have a quartet of members who each have four pics, first off are the 1G members
Mizuho and
Minami, she began the post off with two pics from her very underrated photobook. Following them is
Hikaru and I want to have her third solo polo post soon, in the cleanup position is
Karin and in an odd twist shares the same August 29th birthday as the woman in the below post.
Will end off with a quickie recap for Keya's 'Soko' variety show. In their last group post had a recap for episode #114 but skipped the next two shows as they were a bit dated. This one here is from show #117 that aired on January 29th and that's not too old. There was a theme to this show which I would like to see more of, say once a month? The theme was a featured member who was
Rina Matsuda, she's Keya's second captain and began that position on November 10th. I've really, really liked her for so long but it's almost impossible to do solo posts for her. So it was a getting to know
Rina a bit better episode which was interesting but wish they focused more on the last five years.
Rina turned 23 on October 13th, ten days before
Yui did and they were born in the same year.
So will let the screenshots do most of the 'talking', they go in order of what took place. Rina hails from Miyazaki which is on the island of Kyushu, she said it's a fifteen hour drive to Tokyo. Rina mentioned that for a couple of times when she was auditioning for Keya her parents drove her there. There's two other Rina's in the group, Inoue is one and along with Hikaru were the emcees for this special show. Many other things were brought up from Rina's past such as she was the captain of her softball team and dance clubs at school plus as many fans know she used to work at a bank, her dream was to attend a music school but she never did attend one. You'll see those things plus a bunch more about Rina in the below screenshots.
