Suzuka Tomita: Her tenth '𝑯𝒐𝒑𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒅𝒐𝒆𝒔𝒏'𝒕 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒓𝒖𝒏 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒉𝒊𝒍𝒍𝒔' post!!!!

 


 Noticed the past four months have begun to look at Hina like I did with Nogi back around 2017. That was shortly after the third generation members arrived and the group ballooned to 35 or so members. That's too many for me so started back then to focus more on the members I liked versus what the group did as a whole. Hina is now also up to about 35 members and while nothing against the new gals did prefer when they just had 21 members. So you have seen a big dip in group posts though many more solo ones such as this and that may be the new norm for Hina.



 Suzuka doesn't have many fans here but least they are dedicated ones. We're all in agreement that she deserves a photobook but once again was passed over and will it ever happen? Have no clue on that but also wonder if it's up to a member if they want to have a book, we don't hear of them saying No but bet there's been some '46' members who have declined the offer. Overall this is Suzuka's tenth post and seventh for the year, none of those previous posts have been popular but that's never stopped me from doing posts for someone I like quite a bit and she will make this year's faves list.



 No birthday but Suzuka will be turning 23 in less than five months, Hina is one of the older if not oldest J-Pop groups around.... least the first two generation members are getting up there in age. Suzuka's last post was done at the beginning of July, she is a busy woman though her activities don't always translate over to many photos. But do have over fifty new ones for today and will begin off with these from her IG page.





















 Wouldn't consider Suzuka to be a Hot Rodder but she does have so many racing and car pics as you can see above. She's currently an MC on the weekly racing show 'See You at the Circuit' and while writing that title out it occurred to me have only see her in one small acting role which was in the group's "Koeharu!" drama from 2021. Don't know why but there's no new promo pics this month for the 'Uni's on Air' web game. But do have some brand new pics for Hina's 'Mysterious Library' game, they're so terrific I wish there were more of them. Those are the top five pics, the bottom three are also new for the 'Hina Koi' game.









 Suzuka's cards for Hina's ninth single "One Choice" and have been noticing the only times we've been seeing new cards for Hina or Keya is when they have a single.









 Up until this year Suzuka did have quite a few solo magazine spreads, But to date she's only had two for 2023 and none since April which was this mini spread from EX-Taishu.







 "Vincenzo" is the title of Suzuka's first ever stage play which opened August 11th in Hyogo. She has the lead female role playing the part of Hong Cha-Young and at first thought this Web Sportive interview was going to be about the play. But instead it's about racing and how she became a fan, it was an interesting read: Web Sportiva interview








 On August 18th the "Vincenzo" play moved to Tokyo where it'll be staged at the Seinenkan Hall, these pics are from the first day and next week the play will be moving on to Osaka. In April Hina opened their second YT channel which will mainly have member's solo videos. Suzuka's first one was uploaded on June 3rd which was of her hunting for her first ever car, there was no outcome to that video. A part two was uploaded on July 22nd, her goals for a brand new car was that it should have a flashy color, cost no more than three million yen/$21,000 along with a few other requirements. It was the same as the first trip to a car dealership as Suzuka didn't purchase a car but it will be happening soon enough, she did have her eyes on a Toyota AE86 as that was the car in the "Initial D" manga. She test drove three cars and the entertaining video is right after the pics.

  1. I also wonder how photobooks are assigned and whether girls actually have any saying in the matter (like, I can't really imagine Neko asking to get a PB, that must've been management's decision; on the other hand, I couldn't possibly imagine the management deciding Suzy ain't worth one - unless they're all freaking blind!!! - so the only explanation is indeed that she's against it herself. If that's it, I hope she changes her mind 'cause I honestly can't think of any other Sakamichi girl who's more deserving of a PB than my kami oshi Tomita!)

  2. Rumor has it she's waiting for Konoka to be offered to do a photobook so they can have a 'Hana-Chans' book....hmmmm, let your imagination run away wild....

    1. I really like Kono-chan too, but personally I'd rather have them get each her own PB, not only 'cause two gorgeous PBs are better than one, LOL, but also 'cause their beauty and personality are different and imho would require different settings - for example, a more elegant and less "juicy" PB for the refined Kyotoite Kono-chan BTW, Kyoto would be a great setting for that one!), and a sexier, jaw-dropping-to-the-floor PB for Suzy (in her case, I 'd imagine a more exotic setting....Vietnam perhaps?...😉)

    2. P.s.
      ...or maybe Hong Kong?
      Whatever, I just wanna see my kami oshi wearing a qipao and/or an ao dai, ehm....😅😅😅
