Rui Takanashi: Her tantalizing 'Bubka' digital book plus slightly more....

 

 Rui's last post has only been semi popular to date but it was just done six weeks ago. That was her sixth solo post and her first five really surprised me as they have an average of over 850 views so to my happy amazement she does have many fans who visit here. Just did a post for a BababaBambi member a few days ago and got the pair mixed up. It was Rui who graduated with a degree in Mathematics back in 2019 and how did I get confused on that?

 After graduating from college Rui did work for a while in an office but had a higher calling which was to be a J-Pop Idol and gravure model! Which I think has worked out well for her over the last 4 1/2 years but she'll be turning 28 later on this year so how much longer will she remain an Idol? Least in Rui's case she has something solid to do in the future and why not spend some time in an Idol group and enjoy yourself while you're still young? Hadn't thought of it that way too often but then again most aren't like her and have a degree, bet she's one of the few women who do have one in Mathematics. BababaBambi is a shortish group, Rui is 151 cm in height yet there's two members shorter than her(!) but often you don't notice heights unless they're in photos with another person.

 Do I miss Mio 😍 who is in the bottom pic and she's the kind of woman who would have been #1 on many of my lists had she been busier and so little has been heard of her since leaving BababaBambi in July. Speaking of the group the bottom pic below could be the final one with seven members as two that joined last March have left a week ago so it's back to being a five member group which isn't a bad thing. The pics below are from Rui's IG page and she does love to cosplay, so doesn't Saeko who had a post two days ago. The second to last pic is a flyer for a March 29th show which will be for BababaBambi's fifth anniversary and will any of their graduates be in attendance?

 This is a semi mini post, there are quite a few photos but not many sections. No new magazine spreads so how about an encore version from the November issue of Young Dragon Age and think it's been Rui's only time having a solo mag cover.

 On to the digital book which the Bubka magazine released on January 12th but for now I don't have any spreads that promoted it and sometimes there are none. As you can see Rui is one delectable cutie in these pics but wish there was a bit more variety to them. This set contains 65 photos and also have a smallish book from October which I will post in the future, after this set of pics is a video of the photo shoot and do recommend it for any fans as it is better than the pics.
