Akari Suda: Her most alluring post of the year!!!!
Don't know what's become of Yui K who hasn't had a post for two months, obviously that meant there were none for her in March. So that means her streak of 22 consecutive months with a post has ceased and that's a record that may never be topped. So now the current leader for most months in a row with a post is Akari and this makes ten, June of last year was the last month I had zippo for her. So in order for her to set a new record she would need to have at least one post a month until next May which is possible, it's not as easy as you would think having one post a month.
You will see another version of that pic right above later on in this post, it may be my #1 photo of the year so far! And also so far would say that Akari is my number woman for 2024 to date and unless something tragic happens such as her running away to elope(!) can't see any woman topping her for the second year in a row. That post title is on the money as there are some ultra alluring new pics which will end the post. What's also nice is that most everything for today is from the last few weeks so don't have to use any of my older cache of pics which are dwindling.
Akari had four posts in March which is a record for her and having four posts in a month has seldom happened for anyone. But the last three weeks have been a bit slower for her but that's okay as she deserves a slight breather as no one has been as busy as she has the past ten months. Have one older batch of pics for today which had never been posted before, they were too superb not to have. This event was from June 30, 2018 where Akari was the victory presenter for the ninth race at the Chukyo race course in her hometown of Aichi. It was a special event as the jockey won his 2,100 race and was only the seventh jockey to ever hit that mark in Japan and she looked so sharp wish there had been many more pics.
Back on November 1st Akari released her second essay book which was titled "Ganko" and it was a best seller. At the end of March a video came out for the book's photo shoot as a third of it featured pictures and have that video below. Know it may pale to most other gravure videos but it's the first time we've ever seen any from Akari's many photo shoots, some screenshots below of it along with the video and would recommend going to the 5:32 mark.
That photo shoot above took place at a hot springs in Himakashima. Almost always end off with a large set of new pics from Akari's IG page as they're so terrific but instead have two batches today which top them! This set is from the past two weeks and not nearly as many as usual, the top and bottom ones are from the "M-League" show which is for Mahjong and she is a huge fan of the game.
Many of us, including myself at times, may ot realize how many gravure spreads she appeared in from 2013 ton2022. But I bet very few Idols topped the amount of spreads Akari did and in my eyes all were beyond perfect! Of course they've slowed down since leaving SKE at the end of October 2022 but do have a new spread that could be the top one of the year and is from the May issue of Bomb, Akari's first spread for the magazine in six years. It was a special spread as it was the 250th photo shoot the photographer had done for the magazine.
Will end off with some dazzling pics from the photo shoot, some are also from the Bomb magazine site and could be better than the above pics! Akari will be hitting the age of 33 in six months but to me looks better with each passing day. How I wish there was a video from this photo shoot but least there is a terrific video above that is slightly a gravure one.
