Miku Tanaka: Her historical new WPB mag spread plus more!

 


 Was going to start off by saying how the posts have really decreased for Miku but that's far from the case! This is her eleventh post since December 1st or 7 1/2 months, only two others have more posts and she's tied with a Hina member for most Idol posts. Guess I got spoiled doing so many posts for Miku at the end of last year so I wonder what's going on if there's more than two weeks between posts! What's slightly puzzling is how the views for her posts have really dwindled the last few months and who knows why as every post has been fabulous.



 Last year Miku finished in the ninth position on the faves list, began posting about her so late in the year which is why her spot wasn't higher. She won't be in the battle for #1 for 2023 but then again there are five months to go, I'd be happy to see her in the fifth position. Was thinking about it today and Miku was the first member from HKT to ever make the yearly faves list! In another oddity no member from NMB has ever made the list, there are so many members I've liked from both groups the past decade, The main reason could be is you need six solo posts to be eligible for the list and that was difficult to do for the members of those groups. But then again I think four SKE gals have made the list so it's not impossible, think only a trio from AKB have ever made the list. EDIT: Oooops, about ten minutes later recalled that Miru did make it twice!



 This will be another medium sized post and most have been that way this month, need to lower my standards as fifty or more new pics shouldn't be considered medium. Will begin off with some of Miku's  HKT group cards from April and May, their cards these days get a grade of A+ from me.











 Miku is a new regular model for a clothing line but let me wait for her next post until having some of those pics. Shouldn't be long until that next post as she's the cover girl for two upcoming magazines. More new pics which are from her IG page the last three weeks, I like these kinds of photos as it's nice to see her dressed as a regular gal and that top pic is beyond super duper!!!!


















 You can see who is with Miku in the bottom two pics and also two below, she's overdue for a post and will have one for her within the week. Miku will be in her first regular drama which begins tomorrow and is titled "Saiko no Kyoshi: Ichinego, Watashi was Seito ni Sareta". Looks to be an interesting show but think I will end up skipping it as I do not like the lead actress at all and that's putting it mildly! There was an event for the drama three days ago and a few pics from it. Their birthdays are only three weeks apart, both will be turning 22 in age very soon but like so many Japanese actresses and Idols in their twenties still play the roles of teens.











 The word historical in the tile is an apt word as this spread of 25 pages is the second largest of all time for anyone appearing in the WPB magazine. Miku is the cover girl for their July 31st issue and what a spread it is, WOW! This is two issues doubled up so next week they won't be releasing a new issue. As many know one of my biggest wishes ever is for Miku to have some gravure videos from her photo shoots. Well, my wish stull hasn't been fulfilled but there is a partial one from this photo shoot and you can view that after the pics.
