Mizuki Yamauchi: Her overly impeccable "Suki ni Naru Yokan" photobook scans

 


EDIT: It's February 3rd and still in the process of completing my move. Don't have the internet yet at home but will soon so thanks for hanging in  there and things should be back to normal soon and will admit a break from blogging is what the doctor ordered!

 Am writing this up on January 25th but it won't be published until February 1st. So have no idea as of now what happened in the final days of January, for instance did I do any posts after the 25th? After such a long struggle finally found a new place to live so my first priority was/is packing, then will be unpacking, getting a truck to move but actually may have two guys from work willing to help me out as the move would be on a Saturday. Plus of course there's other things to take care of such as my internet and though this is being published on the 1st don't think I will have home internet access until the fourth. Will still be in the process of getting things set up at my new place and once that gets done can finally begin to concentrate more on this blog so thanks for sticking by me.



Always try to begin off a month with a fantastic photobook but 2024 was a slowish year for Idol books or at least for the gals I follow. A week ago did a photobook post for a Keya member and for two months thought that book would lead of February as it's one terrific book. However I think this one was even better which is why I wanted it to start this month off and if I did have to choose what my #1 book was for 2024 this one just may take the top spot!!!! I had known of Mizuki for a while but wasn't sure there would be any posts for her though I had been posting about two other AKB members. But then in September and October did have three requests to begin posting about Mizuki and in November had her first ever post which was a fabulous one. To date haven't done any others though I have enough things for two posts, I expect this to be a popular post and after it's had it's 'run' will do those other posts and after those still expect more in the future.

 September 30, 2001 is the birth date of Mizuki so of course she's 23 in age, that month has so many birthdays for my favorite women. I had always thought Mizuki was on the short side but that's not the case as her height is a little over 162 cm or close to 64 inches. For the photo shoot Mizuki traveled to Thailand and don't know if I'm correct but seems more Idols go there than any other country outside of Japan. Eleven days after birthday #23 is when this book was released, October 11th to be exact, and in it's first two weeks out the book sold 7,500 copies. Which isn't a huge amount but after those two weeks there was a reprinting done and for the Oricon charts sales at concerts aren't counted. Wasn't going out in a limb above saying this could be my #1 Idol photobook for 2014 as Mizuki 😍 looks so darn attractive and certainly alluring in a slightly demure way. Seems these days I prefer Idols who don't try to go overboard with making themselves look too bodacious and I give Mizuki a 10/10 for the way she looks in this set of photos! Sure her fans here will think that way also and it's a shame there was no video for the photo shoot which doesn't happen these days with '48' members. No need to tell all of you to enjoy these pics and hopefully will resume doing regular posting within the week.

    You are expert of Nogizaka46. Do you have any clue of the original Nanase photo below?

  2. Thanks but I'm no expert, can't tell where it's from but it really looks like it was from a very old 'Bingo!' or 'Under Construction' show.
