Mai Shinuchi: Her legendary.... 𝙃𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙮 34𝙩𝙝 𝘽𝙞𝙧𝙩𝙝𝙙𝙖𝙮 𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙩!!!!

 

 Birthday posts are really no different than regular ones, in the case of Mai that's a good thing as her posts are so darn close to perfect.... and she takes all the credit! However the posts for her have been getting a bit difficult to do the last year or so but to be honest years ago never thought I'd still be doing posts for Mai in 2026. A few of my other larger faves have been having just as many posts as always but the number of those women keeps dropping though at a slower rate.... mainly because there's so few of them left. Mai has cut back on her activities a bit but I still enjoy doing any kinds of posts for her immensely and as I've said numerous times before if I could pick one woman to be my girlfriend or more(!) of all the gals I post about Mai 😍 would easily be my #1 pick and hope she's reading this....

 

 That photo right above is from 2017 and for a while was close to being my favorite Nogi pic, it has been eclipsed but I still savor it to no end. So as the title says Mai is 34 in age and that birthday did happen today, once again it appears she lost my phone number to invite me to her party, sigh as usual..... But I will let that slide and Mai is Nogi's oldest ever member as she left the group two weeks after her 30th birthday back in 2022. Like many ex J-Pop Idols she was fairly busy for a long time and in 2022 had her highest position on the yearly faves list finishing fifth. The following year Mai was also somewhat busy and was until the Summer of 2024, since then she's been much more quiet. As far as I know there's no romance or anyone in her life that's causing the slowdown, perhaps Mai is kicking back to decide what future should be and though not a star she could have a brighter future than most Idols. Mai is extremely intelligent and did work in the Sony offices for about four years, that could be an option though would hate to not see her doing any show biz activities. When it comes to being a radio host Mai is a natural at it and she does have such an easy going personality. So I'd like to see her host a few regular TV variety shows and also get back into modeling plus acting.

 Mai doesn't have a vast amount of gravure pics even though she's had two photobooks but those gravure pics are too fabulous to describe! There's zero wrong with photos like the above one which is a reason I can't understand why Mai doesn't do more modeling, she has the perfect look to model OL attire. Mai's last post was done on December 10th, that was for finishing eighth on the fave's list. That was her fifth time making the list and not many others can boast about that. Since that post six weeks ago Mai hasn't been all that busy but this is the slowest time of the year for activities. Not sure how many photos for today will be new but overall there should be many of them and her tremendous older pics deserve an encore viewing! Plus for any newbies they may have never seen many of Mai's older things, wouldn't say she's a superstar here with you readers but Mai seems to have a large fan base and her posts usually get a decent amount of views.

 Besides often saying that Mai 😍 would make for the best girlfriend she also as the best legs of any woman in history.... they seem to get better with age! Mai has hosted radio shows for almost eleven years, she made the Nogi show 'All Night Nippon' so popular and because of that it's continued on until today. Her current show is an Apple podcast show called 'Maidoari' and these are recent photos from the show.

 I've seen Mai in two dramas and I like her acting style. But she's been in more stage plays and has had the lead role in a few of them. She'll be in another play opening on the 24th but not sure if she'll be acting in it or will be doing the narration. Up next are these photos from Mai's IG page, she never posts a lot for she has many more at her Maileage fan club. The second to last pic is from a January 17th party with her club members and the top two are from today for birthday #34.

 When I do posts for ex-Idols often try to include older group cards for the month we're in. However have posted just about all of Mai's for January and many other months too but there are other kinds of cards that can be included in future posts. For today have some Nogi New Year's cards, they had a series for the holiday called Lucky Bag but that ended a few years back.

 Not many older birthday cards but didn't look for any this year, January 22nd is also when Mai's ex-Nogi mate celebrates turning a year older and isn't she way overdue for a post????

 Over the years Mai has appeared at many events, she looks so terrific at them and I love her classy style but appearing at events did slow down in 2025. But Mai was at one on December 10th and in her last post had only posted two photos from it, have many more stupendous ones below. The event was to promote the French drama "The Count of Monte Cristo" which was an eight episode series and was about to premiere in Japan. Mai said how she's a huge fan of foreign shows and she also has good taste in music as Mai usually listens to rock and older pop groups such as Morning Musume, too many other Idols seem to be into K-Pop or danceable music such as that.

 It being January how about an older spread for the month and this alluring set is from the first 2021 issue of UTB. To me Mai doesn't need to dress very skimpy to get my attention and aren't photos like the ones above so hot in their own way?

 In December Mai released her fourth solo calendar, she's had one every year since leaving Nogi. For the first three years she had an event for it and to promote the calendar also had such blazing magazine spreads. But there was neither this year and that did disappoint me as I can never get enough of Mai! 😍 So will have an encore viewing of two of those spreads to promote the calendar, Mai is the cover girl for both of them and this set is from the December 18, 2023 issue of Big Comic Spirits.

 All three of the magazine spreads to promote her yearly calendars were with Big Comic Spirits, this is the third which is from their January 30, 2025 edition. Though they don't have gravure photos both of these spreads are so close to being perfect, I think the three spreads for today are Mai's best and even top the ones promoting her photobooks. A digital book would be nice, she did have one in June 2022 which was four months after leaving Nogi and it was a superb book but way too small.

 There was a video for the above spread but it's no longer on YT and wonder why, it's so much harder to search there these days and it was never easy to begin with. So after this sizzling final batch of photos is a comp. video a fan made up of Mai's bloopers while with Nogi, it is subbed and it's nice to see some forgotten members plus doesn't Mai have such a terrific voice? To me Mai does and what tops that is her scorching figure 😍 so let's end off with some ultra dazzling pics as not many women in the world can top Mai.... where will she finish on the 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' list when the countdown begins six months from now????
