Kana Nakada: An alluring smorgasbord of this and that's....
Who would have ever thought that Kana would end up having the most posts for a current or ex-Nogi member in a year?! Certainly not me and would think anyone reading this either but I won't complain in the least as she's always been a fave of mine but never had much of a chance to do many posts for Kana though bet she's up to about a dozen solo ones by now. This is her fifth post for 2025 so one more and for the first time ever Kana will qualify for the yearly faves list, she many be the only Nogi member to do so. But will be having a post for Yuki's third photobook in five days plus am trying to have one for the group's current captain Minami but how the posts for graduated members have really slowed down.
Bet most Nogi fans feel that Mai could have the top figure of any member and much of that was because of those revealing pics in her "Passport" photobook. But to me she has nothing on Kana who truly may have the better figure but not the top one in Nogi who I would bestow upon a second generation gal. Kana's first photobook was released in October 2020 which was a few weeks after her graduation from Nogi. Today Kana's second regular photobook came out and quite a bit of this post will feature pics from it and there was also an event held for it today. That pic right above and also the first below are from 2018 when Kana was with Nogi and those must have whetted the appetite of many fans as they're both sparkling photos though we had to wait another two years for her first book. I would recommend reading Kana's previous posts done this year as two feature dazzling digital books. Plus there's much bio info in those posts such as many tidbits about Kana's main career which is of being a pro Mahjong player and she seems to be doing very well in their pro M League, she also co-hosts a web show about Mahjong plus has written a book for those just starting out on the game.
Like most ex-Nogi gals Kana's age is slowly creeping up as in ten weeks she'll be hitting the age of 31. You would have to say she's been one of the more successful graduates of the group and I can only think of 3-4 who are doing better but all in all the posts sadly have really slowed down for those in the first two generations. Will begin off with some recent photos from her IG page but she's never been one to post many, the bottom pic is a promo one for the Spadie pro poker league and Kana is also skilled at that game so don't go playing her in strip poker.... well, why not as even if you lose you may win!
Always have older group cards in posts for ex-Idols so have plenty of Kana's below for June and May which are for the years 2020/19.
The last pic above isn't a Nogi card but the poster for a 2014 movie that Kana had the lead role in. Back then three first generation members starred in a trio of horror flicks and I did review all of them. Of the three Kana's was the best and it was titled "Death Blog", even if you're not a Nogi fan would recommend viewing it. As mentioned Kana's second regular photobook has just been released and she also has three sizzling digital books. Do have a few new or recent magazine spreads that feature outtake pics from the book with this first one being from the April 8th issue of Flash.
Second up for recent spreads promoting Kana's new photobook is this set from the April 18th issue of Friday, have one more which will end the post.
Today is when the book was released and Kana held an event to promote it at the Kodansha bookstore in Tokyo. The title of the book is "Kakitateru" and the photo shoot took place in South Korea, Kana's first book was so sweltering but this book could even top that as to me she looks better than she did five years ago though I do say that about most women.
Have a small batch of some truly hotter than hot pics from the book. I really hope this is a solid selling book as I'd love to see Kana have a few more digital ones in the future, all three of her previous books have been steamy to the Nth degree. The top pic is the cover and hard to pick out my favorite one as so many are ultra alluring....
Will end off with this terrific new spread and she's the cover girl for the June 9th issue of Young Magazine which I think published the book. My only complaint is that there's been zero gravure videos from any of these sweltering photo shoots and how I would love to see one!!!! That event just took place a few hours ago so there is no video yet but did mention that Kana had the lead role in the 2014 movie "Death Blog" and after this spread is the trailer for it.
She’s evolved in ways I never expected—graceful, beautiful, and quietly powerful.
