Yuuka Sugai: Is hopefully remembered by a few out there....
Thee is one positive with having no one to post about, it allows me some time to work on one for some forgotten faves such as this post for today. Really can't say Yuuka has been forgotten about as I do try to include things about her in Keya's group posts but hadn't able to do one like this until today. It's not easy doing these posts for Keya graduates but quite a few have been semi-successful since leaving the group and hope to have another post for a graduate this weekend.
Whew, that photo right above was in my top five for fave 2022 pics!!!! Yuuka has been gone from Keya for almost fourteen months and she has remained fairly busy. She does host a radio show, has also co-hosted a pair of web shows about horses, was in two stage plays last year and is the co-lead in a new drama that began two days ago. It's nice to see good things happen to your more nicer Idols and Yuuka has been someone I have liked for such a long time, so haven't you viewers as her solo posts have always been popular. At the end of November she did hit the age of 28 but still looks so classy and terrific to me, so because it's the only post for today will make it a large one for her fans.
That bottom pic right above is from her first ever calendar which was just released. The one above that is from her first photobook that came out in 2018 and that's been an ultra popular post as it's drawn almost 15,000 views! Have a little of a lot for today, some brand new happenings, some older pics which had never been posted before and some encore viewings of a few things. Let's begin off with some pics from Yuuka's IG page, she does post many of them and don't have more as did have some in a December Keya group post.
Last year did begin to have many cards in posts but before 2023 had never really posted many except for Nogi members. This batch here are Yuuka's final Keya cards from 2022, after mid-2020 there was a huge slowdown of them.
Isn't Yuuka such an underrated beauty? She isn't to me and some others out there, in my eyes she's more attractive than almost any other '46' member and can only think of a handful who top her looks. One would be my all time #1 woman Risa and the pair are very good friends up until this day, she's the graduate who I hope to have a post for this Sunday.
Hope Yuuka drags her along to the next Keya graduation concert that will take place in three weeks. Of course it's sadly the one for Yui and Keya will never be the same after her departure. Isn't it so difficult or impossible to top this trio????
When she was with Keya Yuuka did have a fair amount of solo spreads but just one mini one since she left in November 2022. So let's go back in time for two her final ones before graduating, such as when she was the cover girl for the October 20, 2022 issue of Young Jump.
Yuuka's final spread as a Keya member was in the November 24th issue of Young Jump, both of these two sets were promoting her second photobook that came out on November 8, 2022.
"Chaser Game W" is the title of Yuuka's first drama outside of Keya, it's a late night series that had it's first episode two nights ago. She has the co-lead in this drama which to me looks to be very mysterious and creepy, the other co-lead is a fave actress of mine. So here is a promise, if the series gets subbed will recap the entire drama and have heard it will be subbed but let me wait a while until half of the series has been done. Do have the first episode but haven't skimmed through it yet. For the drama she has done many interviews to promote it, here's the link to one which was with the Crank site and she looks more than A-OK to me: Crank interview
For the new drama there was an event held three days to promote it. Have plenty of superb pics from it with the bottom two being the main poster and character breakdown for the show. After the pics check out a short video of Yuuka from the event.
