Here's such a massive semi-forgotten favorite of mine and you viewers too, it's easy to understand why she may have been forgotten about as this is her first post in 26 months! This is also a prime or best example of why posts have been so much harder to do the past year or actually a bit longer. Miru's first post was done almost exactly nine years ago, November 21st of 2016 to be exact. Over the next six years and nine months she had 44 posts which is about seven a year and though her positions weren't extremely high Miru did make my yearly faves list three years in a row and not many can boast about that. She had three posts in 2023 which were mainly for volume one of this photobook, then Miru seemed to disappear again. Not completely but her activities have really dwindled and it's now been over four years since her departure from NMB. What I was starting to say is there were at least another dozen women like her who would have 6-8 posts a year and those are the women who these days it's been almost impossible to do posts for. If you check out those older yearly faves lists then you would see so many faces you know well but haven't seen here for a while. A dozen women times seven posts in a year is 84 or seven a month, it may not sound like a lot of posts but it is and I miss doing posts for so many of those gals. Seems like most of my more massive faves have had as many posts as usual this year but it's the next tier of favorites who have seen the huge dip in posts.... my mind is a tad scattered so hope what I moaned about makes sense....
I may have three groups of favorites and probably couldn't list all the women in those groups except for the Elite tier. There are my mega/elite faves and sure you readers have figured out who most are, the largest would be the third group of your.... everyday favorite women! Not sure what name would be bestowed upon the middle group and Miru 😍 is so close or at least was to being #1 among those women! Had she had ten posts a year instead of seven and had a bit more variety in her activities then she would have been in that group of massive faves and perhaps in my top ten of all time! But sadly there are too many Ifs and that's also the case for many other women, one category Miru is in the top ten of is my hottest J-Pop Idols ever yet.... I would place two other NMB members above her! That may be a shock to many of you and NMB is the only group who would have a trio of members on that list of hottest Idols but all three have been way too quiet this year.
Good timing for this post as Miru has risen from her semi-hibernation and will be releasing her fourth photobook in eight days, she had two with NMB and a pair after her graduation. So soon there will be a post with new Miru pics and news but besides this upcoming book not sure what else she's done the last two years. On to this photobook which I think is an underrated classic though none will ever touch Miru's first book that came out in June 2019, "Love Rush". Then there was a book right around the time of her departure from NMB in mid-2021 and that may have been why it was titled "Reboorn". This third book was released on June 7, 2023 and like so many books these days there's 3-5 versions of them. Posted this book two years ago and that was the Kindle version, as the title says this is the Master Edition of the "Aventure" photobook. Most of the pics are different than the previous version that was posted and I think these newer photos are much better, the other book was fabulous but think this version easily tops it. The location for the photo shoot was Okinawa and know most will enjoy this post as Miru is one of the most popular women I've ever posted about, she's close to being the #1 Idol of all time here! So will be back soon with many things for photobook #4 such as any new magazine spreads, pics from an event, promo photos and whatever. After the pics is a video of the photo shoot that Miru uploaded to her YT channel from this photo shoot and she's kept that site updated.
