Kyoko Saito: Has made a brief resurrection from her tomb....

 


 Not the largest of posts but I've been dying to do one for her as this is her first in three months! Don't think that's happened in at least four years and while Kyoko isn't going out on an ultra quiet note was hoping for a few more grad things for her. Especially a photobook and there's no Idol who I've wanted to see a second book for more than her. But think Hina does have a group photobook coming out in two days so perhaps we will be seeing some final pics that will make our(my) heart swoon....



 Gulp, how does one describe a photo like the above one, gulp again! So while this is Kyoko's first regular post in three months did recap her 'Nukarumi' drama in which she had the lead role. Do expect her to continue acting and why not as she could be the best actress from the three '46' groups but how I wish she and a few others would surprise us in a nice way with some gravure spreads or modeling pics in that vein. Not too many different things for today but think there may be a lot of pics, didn't want to make this too large as I would like to have another post for Kyoko in about 3-4 weeks, am also hoping that she'll make it four years in a row finishing in the top ten on the faves list.



 As you can see above April 5th is the date for her graduation concert, another first generation member has already announced they'll be leaving and sadly think many more will be joining the pair. Will start off with a few recent IG pics but not nearly as many as usual.









 Kyoko is also in a mini series that began last night titled "Renai Seniyaku Kaigi". There's four episodes and they'll be airing on four consecutive nights, the main actress is a fave of mine so if it does get subbed will definitely recap the mini drama.




 There was a very mini event for the drama three days ago, doesn't Kyoko look like such a shrimp compared to the rest of the cast!








 The cards for Hina and Keya have really slowed down the last few months. These came out in December so probably weren't posted and hope these aren't her final ones.









 One small new mag spread that's from the March issue of ar but she will be the cover girl for their April edition. To me think only one Hina member has appeared in more magazines than Kyoko over the last 3-4 years yet this is her first since October, as a matter of fact except for ar she hasn't had a solo spread for any magazine since last May!!!!





 So let's go back exactly two years for an encore viewing of a terrific Kyoko spread that's from the March 22, 2022 issue of Young Champion.











 Never did get a chance to post any Kyoko pics for Valentine's and in all honesty there's very few who I'd rather have bake chocolate for me.... though being a chef isn't among her talents....










 The promo pics for the 'Uni's on Air' are late again this month but do have her ones from January and February below. In Kyoko's next post will have the pics for March and April which sadly will be her final ones.









 Will end off with what could be her final Hina event and it's been eons since there's been any kind of group event. It was to promote a new exhibit called "Hinatazaka46 WE R!" which will be at the Tokyo Sky Treewell. The event took place on March 12th and that's when the exhibit opened, it'll be running until June 12th and it does look like an impressive place to visit if you're a fan. Few of the bottom pics are from the venue where it's everything Hina(!), many photos, videos, merchandise to buy and even the member's favorite foods. Thought the group had some new uniforms but in the pics they're wearing an older version, to me some other uniforms are much better. Plenty of photos here from the event, it has been a while since a group post but if there is an event for the upcoming photobook then will have a Hina post this weekend. What's disappointing is that there's no video from the event nor one to promote it. Will skip having a video then as besides her variety show Kyoko hasn't had a new one in over four months, perhaps even longer. '
