Hinatazaka46: A little of this and that for 2023 #14.... Mainly magazine spreads but a tad more....

 


 Back to back Hina posts and don't know if that's ever happened before, plus there were at least four other posts the previous ten days. But have been saying this could be their busiest stretch ever for posts so there's a good reason for doing this so quickly as there will be at least two more coming up in the next few days. Not only those posts but this should be a busy stretch for me coming up and am wondering will I have the time to do all of those posts?! Also just began on my newest drama "Zombie Detective" and need time to write those recaps up as they can take a while, especially the first two.

 The past month the posts have been bigger than ever so may make them a bit smaller to fit all of the planned ones in. Few weeks back said that November and December tend to be such a busy stretch for posts and was wondering was I correct with that statement? Obviously was and I prefer to have too many things to post about which has been such a rarity this year. One other thing is that soon the countdown for this year's faves list will be starting, sixteen out of about 28 women will make the cut. At first thought I would just do posts for the top twelve and squeeze the other four into one post. But think everyone deserves their own post so will begin the countdown a few days early and will have an intro post just before I start, think three Hina members will be in the top sixteen.



 Don't know if you Hina fans have noticed but I tend to have these group posts feature a variety of things and very few mag spreads. This one will be different as there will be four spreads which total forty pics but will have a few other things so there could be eighty pics all together, often have well over a hundred but there will another post very soon with many different kinds of things. The group's third album, second since the name change to Hina, is titled "Myskuutsu Kanjou" and comes out in four days, the covers for the album.





 At the beginning of each month the members have a new photo and message at the group site, here are the ones for November and as usual begin and end with Kyoko and Mikuni.



















 Tomorrow had planned on doing a birthday post for Ayaka and unsure if that will happen. Well, the post will definitely happen but it may not be until Monday or so as there's been so many recent things pop up haven't had a chance to work at it enough but she truly does deserve a solo post.



 As many Hina and Keya fans have noticed I've been moaning about the fact there were no promo pics in October for the 'Uni's on Air' web game. Outside of birthday pics guess there won't be any for the month. But checked their site today and there will be pics for November so will have a group post for them. Do have a pair of member's new pics for the game who are Konoka and Suzuka, these pics are from a special set called 'Sento Yu-Niea'.









 Now on to a quartet of magazine spreads and am holding one back for the next regular group post. First up is this mini set from the October issue of ar that features Hinano, it was promoting her first photobook and she's getting a huge push as she was also the center for their last single.




 Platinum Flash is a special edition which comes out quarterly or one for every season. Have two spreads here for their Autumn issue which is #24, first off with the bigger spread is Nao who is followed by Haruyo and will admit she looks darn good in her pics.























 Last up for today features Mirei as the cover girl for the November 15th issue of Weekly Shonen Sunday. After the pics is a video of her from July 29th from Hina's YT channel as she went on an (inept!)fishing trip with Ayaka and wish the members would begin uploading more videos.
