Yui Oguri: A few recent happenings....

 


 In a bit of a shock to me this is only her second post of the year, that first wasn't too far in the past as it was done less than seven weeks ago. This has been a busier year for AKB or it's seemed so to me but that hasn't meant many posts for Yui who is kind of popular here though wouldn't call her a star. I like her quite a bit and can say the same for two of her mates who I also try to do posts for, what I really like is the laid back and humble style of the trio. This will be a good sized post but will hold back some things such as pics from two events, will try to end off 2024 on the right note for Yui as I think there's a good chance she will have two more posts this year.



 That second upcoming post should happen shortly after December 26th, on that date she hits the age of 23 but has been an AKB member for a decade. Let's get right to things and first off are these recent pics from her IG page. The top one isn't but is from the Ray magazine site and for their December issue Yui will be their cover girl so hope to have the spread for her next post.















 Don't know why but have always thought J-Pop Idols would have many photos for Halloween and that often hasn't been the case. However Yui does have a fair amount, those concert pics are from seven years ago!















 Hmmmm, this was a semi quickie post as I did have these pics before the day began but didn't work on getting any others. Mainly because I didn't want to have a huge amount of new pics for that may have meant only one instead of two possible upcoming posts. So didn't get any new modeling pics such as any from the Ray site and not sure if Yui is a model for anyone else. Last year she did do a lot of modeling for Dazzling but no longer does which seems much more common these days with Idols.












 Yui is in a current drama but don't think I will be checking it out. She did have the lead role in the AKB series "Majimuri Gakuen" that aired in 2018, did view it but didn't recap the drama but thought it was quite good. Have one new magazine spread which is way too small and is from the October 15th issue of Flash, she was the cover girl for their September 10th issue.





 These next two spreads are slightly older but not quite ancient yet. The Weekly Ascii magazine often features actresses and Idols as their cover girl, usually for two issues in a row. Yui had that honor for their July 9th and 16th editions, they never have gravure photo for their mini sets which is fine as to me the pics are always terrific.











 In her next post will have some event pics from October 9th when Yui was an acting police chief for a day. Will also have more photos from the October 19th Autumn 'Girls Award' show that took place at the Makuhari Messe Hall in Chiba. She did take two strolls at the show, just have one of them for today which is the below batch and that walk was in the Top of the Hill stage.









 Wish there were more pics from the above show as Yui did look grand to me and these days I much prefer that laid back/conservative style. Will end off with another set of event pics and this one took place on October 18th for the 2024 'Japan-Korea Contents Showcase'. This is the first time the show has been held and it appears it will be an ongoing one into the future, the main topic was of beauty, fashion and food. Like many Idols Yui seems to enjoy Korean things such as their cosmetics and such, there's enough articles out there about the event if you want more info. Have plenty of fabulous pics below from the event, after them is a longish video of the show and there aren't enough of them featuring Idols.... had forgotten until this event she is a southpaw....
