Keyakisaka46: The uneagerly awaited fourth.... Rina Matsuda post!!!!

 


 Sure this will rank up(down?) there as one of 2024's least popular posts but here's someone I do like quite a bit and am trying to get out of posting about the same women over and over which seems to be happening. In about a week will have a Keya group post and thought it'd be wiser to wait just a little bit on it. In five weeks they will be releasing their seventh single since the name change to Sakura and that will make it four in less than a year. This Sunday the lineup will be announced so will wait for that to happen but besides that there isn't all that many things to post about the group, two weeks from now sadly an era will be ending.....



 Can't say there has been much going with Rina either but I've been wanting to do so many more posts for her. But as has been the case for most other members it's so difficult to do posts for her, have been noticing for the past year Keya seems to do more activities as a group which is why they have many posts in that vein. There hasn't been a lot of solo activities outside of Keya and that's almost the opposite of Hina. However do have a fair amount of things you've never seen here before featuring the group's second ever captain and Rina has held that position since early November 2022. Guess we won't be seeing another graduation photobook and there was only one regular one last year for any member, you know who may get my vote for who deserves the next one....


 
 Really don't have any clue how popular Rina is with Keya fans, know she's not #1 as far as popularity goes but perhaps this post can pick her up a few fans. There are a lot of January birthdays for Keya and Hina members, think eight but don't know if any can have a post done for them though I would like to. Will begin off with some blog pics, she doesn't have an IG page yet and still posts her photos at the group's 'Diary' blog.









 Not too many blog pics and guess the members have been resting up a bit as they will have that single coming out next month plus I think a tour. That first pic was with the group's oldest member Rina U and was able to do a birthday post for her two weeks ago, she's 27 in age. There's three in Keya that share the first name and I just can't understand why there's never been some sort of "Rina Song"? Here's some rare pics which is of the trio together.





 Sigh, hate to call it Treason but the members tend to do too much fraternizing with the dreaded enemies! Of all the '46' gals seems like Rina is the worst(best?) at doing that, could have had many more pics than these and she does seem to be good friends with that first Hina member.











 Least Rina knows who to hang out often with which is her mate Yui, the pair have always seemed close to me and why not as their birthdays are only ten days apart. Relish these now for in two weeks we won't be seeing any more new ones....














 It's so hard to believe how few magazine spreads there were for Keya in 2023, it's a shock when there's ever a new one in any post. Maybe because management has been pushing them more as a 'Group' is why there's been so few of them. To date Rina has had only two solo spreads but has appeared often in magazines with other members. Here's a semi oldie that's exactly four years old from the January 2020 issue of BLT, have had it before but seeing as how her posts draw so few views sure most have never seen it before. 











 Keya doesn't have a regular card series but when there are some those cards are so sharp looking. Have some from the past few months here that hadn't been posted, those are the top fifteen. The bottom four with Rina dressed as a waitress also had never been posted here before, they're from late 2022 and they looked so darn good to me just had to have them!




















 We've hit the end, may not have seemed like a large post but bet there were over seventy pics for this post. For the final have Rina's January pics for the 'Uni's on Air' game, she and one other member had a second set of pics called S. teller which are the first six and they just came out last week. Don't have any new solo videos but after the pics is a new one added to the group's second YT channel which was from when they traveled to the Philippines for the 2023 'Asian Artist Awards' show. It features many members and I found it entertaining and a good job was done by the 'emcee'. Didn't add this info in above which was that Rina hit the age of 24 back on October 13th, she's a little over 159 cm in height and is the only Keya member to hail from Miyazaki which is on the island of Kyushu.
