Rika Izumi: Hope a few recall who she is....

 


 Obviously it isn't so(or is it?) but seemed 3-4 years back a Curse 😈 began here for those that reached seventy or more posts. You'd think once that happened hitting a hundred would be the next step yet out of ten or so women it's only happened once in the last three years! What I mean is that while this may be Rika's 92nd post after she hit 75 they began to really slow down and hope she can hit a hundred1 But it's not just her but many others such as Rena T, Haruka F, Yui K and others who should have been shoo-ins to reach a hundred but will any of them or five others hit that milestone?

EDIT: It's over a day later and realized three weeks ago was the seventh anniversary of her first post here, sadly very few from that era are still as active as Rika is....



 To call Rika a massive fave would be such an understatement and any long time viewer knows that not many have topped her in my eyes 😍. She holds the record for most appearances on the yearly faves list as she's been on it the last seven years and that record will never be broken! What will be broken is Rika's streak as this just being her third post for 2024 will make it almost impossible for her to reach eight years and will do a post for the list somewhat soon. It's been five months since the last post for Rika and probably could have done one before this but 2024 has been her slowest year to date for activities. Hopefully age isn't a reason for she will be turning 36 in two months but to me still looks so darn seductive and what a shame we may never see photos like these at the top.



 Gulp, we need more adjectives to describe her seductiveness, whewwww!!!! This post will feature quite a few new photos for her yet all in all there hasn't been much going on the last four months and it's just that the batches of pics are large. If there was one thing you could always depend on with Rika was her having many new modeling pics but have noticed she's really slowed down on those since March. But soon the Autumn and Winter collections for many site will be coming out so hoping that normalcy will return. Do have a fair amount of modeling pics for today and of course quite a few are from the Oggi site, could have had many more than these. In May she celebrated her fifth anniversary of being a model for them and no one has appeared on their magazine's cover more than her.














 Also have a large Oggi magazine spread that's from their July issue but these days it seems she only appears in their mags or the site below. Rika has been doing so much more acting and will end off with some news of her latest drama. She just made a guest appearance on a Taiga show and those are historical dramas that last for almost a year but have never viewed one as they really don't interest me, also have to add in her acting skills are quite good and she's had the lead role in two dramas.













 Bijin Hyakka is the other site/magazine that Rika has been with for a while. Below are some recent pics from their site but she usually doesn't have many of those but does appear in most magazines.









 Here's a Bijin Hyakka spread and have been holding on to it for over five months as it's from their March issue and never would have imagined it would be so long between Rika posts.

















 "Mikkoku wa Utau" was a police drama that aired in 2021, I was quite interested in viewing it but never did and had wondered why? Rika had the female role in the mini series which lasted for six episodes and did find out why I hadn't viewed the show which is because the file sizes for the episodes were just so huge and couldn't find smaller versions but will keep looking as I still want to watch this show. A second season of eight episodes began on August 11th so that too I want to view so if Lady Luck is watching over me hopefully can find decent sized files of the shows as they are or will be subbed. Will end off with this batch of pics as on July 30th Rika was at an event to promote the show and have always said no woman outshines her at events!!!! Will skip having a video as there hasn't been a new one for her in so many months, is there a bias against women getting older as she's not the only woman 30+ in age who I post about who seldom has videos these days.
