Himeka Araya: Her fifth and final intoxicating intro post.... a trio of scorching new magazine spreads!

Zipped through those first four posts as there were a few new mag spreads and didn't want to see them become dated. Those posts were for all of her spreads and whatever from 2020-22. As mentioned often it does take a while for a newbie to become popular around here, it usually happens though now and again someone never seems to attract a lot of fans. Hope that's not the case for Himeka whose first four posts haven't drawn as many views as I thought they would but may look back on them a few months from now and find that those views have doubled which that happens quite often. So with this post am all caught up with Himeka's activities, she's appeared in so many magazines during the past year but hasn't done much else or at least done postable things.

Himeka has been doing some acting, she'll be appearing in her first movie that will be coming out in September. She was also in a January stage play and will be in another beginning on May 17th titled "Coffee Kaiga", those first two photos below are from a recent rehearsal. They're from her IG page and so aren't the rest of them which have all been posted the past three weeks.

On May 30th Himeka will be hitting the age of 25, she has been in two J-Pop groups and her first two intro posts had most of her bio info. This is not a large post as the only thing left are the trio of magazine spreads but they do add up to be close to forty pics and didn't want to see them get dated. Am all caught up with Himeka's spreads prior to 2023 so everything for now on will be new ones. She's the cover girl for two of these sets with the first being from the February issue of Young King Bull.

Much larger set here and didn't go in order as this spread is from the January issue of Young Dragon and once again Himeka graced the cover.

For the finale have this brand new set from the April 10th issue of WPB, think it's promoting a new digital book and hope so as she's only had one to date. After the pics is a short video of the spread and this set is promoting a new Himeka book according to the video.
