Kyoko Saito: Her extremely overdue.... 'Happy 26th Birthday!' post.....

 

 I just will never get tired of gaping at that top pic which could be my second favorite photo of all time!!!! This is the fourth birthday post for September as a lot of my bigger faves have turned a year older in the last three weeks and may have another coming up. Overdue for Kyoko hit the age of 26 on September 5th but at the time there weren't all that many things for a post though I had done one six days prior. Thought she would be at the Autumn 'Tokyo Girls Collection' show that was held on the 2nd but sadly didn't make an appearance nor does it appear she will be at the 'Girls Award' Autumn show taking place in ten days.

 So though Kyoko won't be at those two shows she does she a good excuse for missing them and will explain why. Just a heads up for any Hina fans which is that I will be posting the photobook for her good mate above on October 1st. This is Kyoko's eleventh post for 2023 and that ties her all time high which was set last year, she should break that easily as there could be two posts next month. As of now not sure where she may end up on this year's faves list, in 2022 she was in the fourth position and just may end up in the same spot though could also go up or down one position. Hmmmm, it appears number one if where she feels is her position but think she will sadly always be a bridesmaid here....

 For the last five years Kyoko has always appeared at those huge fashion shows but as mentioned will be missing the two for September and possibly the one next month. She has an excellent excuse for she is busy filming her first non-Hina drama that will begin on October 21st. Title of the series is "Nukarumi no Shokutaku" and Kyoko has the lead role in it! That's some fantastic news and you know that if the drama gets subbed I will recap the show. She plays the character of Mia who is working at a supermarket and began an affair with her married manager. Mia appears to be a bit of an odd young woman and before long makes the lives of her manager and his wife a living hell! So I'm looking forward to this show and will have more info in her next post. The show will be airing Saturday nights at 11:30 pm on TV-Asahi and late night shows are always better than prime time ones. The drama does have a site but it's brand new so not too much there but here's the link to it which does have a fairly decent synopsis: "Nukarumi no Shokutaku" drama site

 In an unexpected announcement a first generation Hina member will be graduating soon. I thought with all of Kyoko's outside work she would be the next member to depart but think now at the earliest it wouldn't be until next Spring. This is a birthday post so how about some older pics of her for the occasion, for the most part these birthday posts are almost the same as regular ones. That bottom pic is very ancient, sure you know who is with her and it's from September 2016!

 Do have some new pics for Kyoko's 26th birthday which are the top four. The other four are also brand new and they're for the 'Uni's on Air' web game. Once again they're late with promo pics for the game but did have some for the Hina and Keya members who celebrated a birthday in September.

 Not too many recent pics from her IG page but her last post was done just a little over three weeks ago. Haven't done a Hina group post for a while and a major reason is because the focus has been on the new fourth generation members. So don't think there will be a group post this month but there is a slight chance, I much prefer doing solo posts for the members.

 Was just thinking that a Halloween post for Hina and/or Keya would be a good idea as I haven't done one of those for years.

 Kyoko has been a model for the ar magazine since June 2019, no new modeling pics from their site today but do have this spread from their October issue.

 There's a few other minor things I could have added in but will hold on to those for her next post. Did mention that Kyoko has been doing a lot of work outside of Hina and one job is that she's doing her first ever dubbing role for an anime movie. That's "Mutant Turtles: Mutant Panic!" which will be opening on September 22nd and she'll be voicing the lead female character of April. Will be ending off with a huge amount of superb pics from a promo event held yesterday for the movie at the TOHO Cinemas in Nihonbashi, Tokyo. April O'Neal is the name of her character who was living in NYC and was trying to be a journalist but instead hooked up with the Turtles! Of course Kyoko looked her usual alluring self(!) and she seems like such a fun woman to be with, plenty of pics here from the event and hopefully she'll be at the movie's premiere this weekend. There's a few videos of the event on YT and have the longest one of them after the photos.
