Rei Ozono: Who else deserves a post more than her!!!!
Only post for today but to make up for that will make this a super duper one that will have around ninety pics! As far as Keya members go Rei has really zoomed up on my fave members list so it figures I haven't been able to do a post for her since April which was for her 23rd birthday. So though this is overdue there wasn't much I could have done about it and hope it's not another long gap between posts. That second pic above you've seen before and will again(!) which is from her first photobook and for some reason that's been one of my top pics of the year to date!
This is Rei's fourth post for 2023 and can she get two more by the end of November to qualify for the yearly faves list? I really hope so and if she can think she just may break into the tip ten, it would be higher if there were more posts. What I've noticed over the years is that after someone releases a photobook there's a huge cut in their activities, that's been the case for the three '46' groups. Rei's fist book came out on April 18th which was her 23rd birthday and has she been way too quiet since then! For all of the posts that have been done for Keya(Sakura) this year if she doesn't get to six posts there may be only one member who is eligible for the yearly faves list!
Rei's last post was extremely popular, the three before that only drew a so-so amount of views though I do think she has many fans here. Let begin off with some recent pics from Keya's group 'Diary' blog, she doesn't have an IG page yet and she doesn't post enough pics at the blog. As you can see three of them are from when Keya went to the Japan Expo in Paris which took place in mid-July.
The bottom two are from the set of the "Actress" drama. Did the first two recaps for the series a few days ago and will have the next pair in about two days. Rei plays the character of Tomomi who is a private investigator and what a deductive one! After three shows she's been my favorite character and it's hard to describe how utterly attractive she is in this drama.... WOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!!
Rei seems to tower over the rest of the cast though her height is just 163 cm, the other '46' members save for one are just so short! As has been the norm for recent solo posts have her monthly message pics that are posted at the Keya site, they go from August back until February. You will notice that in July the group's uniform changed.
It's so odd that there hasn't been any new promo pics in August for the 'Uni's on Air' web game. To me those pics are often highlights of a post and hope it isn't an omen that they're stopping. Have Rei's previous four months here, four photos for each that go from July back until April.
However Keya does have a new game that began three weeks ago called 'Saku Koi', it's a simulated dating game. Will have more info on it in the next group post which I hope can be done this weekend, here are Rei's promo pics for the game and doesn't she look fabulous!
To me it seemed Rei had far more magazine spreads in 2021/22 than any other Keya member. But she hasn't had a solo spread for over four months now and what's up with that???? So let's go back exactly one year when the was the cover girl for volume 18 of Platinum Flash. When she joined Keya she was studying Psychology at college but don't know if she ever graduated, think she also has a black belt so try not to get her upset!!!!
Will end off with some dazzling pics from her first photobook "Hanbun hikari, Hanbun kage", some of these pics you've seen before but over half are new for here. Rei isn't as bodacious as other Idols but in my eyes she looks overly terrific in this book which may have a shot at being my #1 of the year!. Sales were a bit disappointing though as the total sales were just in the 35-40,000 range. Keya now has their own YT channel that's mainly for the members but they're not doing a good job at uploading videos. Rei has one solo video that she uploaded on May 28th which is after the pics, she visited a restaurant by herself which she says was extremely difficult for her.
