Haruka Fukuhara: Now with the most unbeatable post of the year!!!!

 

 It's hard to explain why on many occasions, for instance that first photo is one of my all time favorites of Haruka and not sure why, sadly doubt if that gift she's holding is for me! And as far as that post title goes I've said that before in other posts and one reason is these are the kind I enjoy doing over all others. I've never had a list of my top posts for a year as that would be impossible to do but back in 2021 said a February post for an ex-Morning Musume gal would be the top post for that year and though no list was done I thought it was easily the best post for 2021! Was going to begin off by saying how unpopular Haruka is here but that's not really the case even though she rarely has a post make that section for 'Most viewed posts of the past month'. When I do a post for her in the first two months it may receive 500 views but luckily that's just the tip of the iceberg! Was just looking at Haruka's posts for the last four years and all are well over 800 views, quite a few are over a thousand so it is nice to see Haruka has so many fans here who check out older posts and if so this could also be your top post for 2026.

 Haruka did have some swimsuit pictures in her last two photobooks that came out when eighteen and twenty in age. But that's been it as far as gravure photos go and that's a huge reason for her being such a massive fave of mine. You wouldn't think so but it can get tiring doing posts for so many gravure models and scantly clad J-Pop Idols, Haruka 😍 is like breath of fresh air and her photos are just as terrific as those women who leave so little to our imaginations. Have mentioned the rare milestone of a hundred posts recently, the last to hit that mark was Yui from Keya last June. But Akari's next post will be 100th, then within the next year or so have said that my top two gravure models Nene and Nashiko should hit that mark. One woman I've never mentioned hitting that rare milestone of a hundred posts is Haruka and this is her 92nd post. So there's a good chance she'll be hitting triple digits next year and that is an accomplishment as very few actresses have hit that mark, bet the last was in 2020 or even before then! Haruka has never had more than eight of these posts in a year but this is her fourth since December 1st and for the first time in four years will qualify for the fave's list and also one other.

 That other list is much more esteemed than the yearly one and will be my third 'Top Twenty Faves of All Time' list which will begin in five months. I'm not exaggerating saying this but if things had worked out a bit differently than Haruka 😍 would be #1 on that list, to say I like her more than anyone else here could be true though she could be battling with Yui. What's held back Haruka over the years is lack of posts but that won't prevent her from having a high position on the list. I know who the top three or perhaps four will be so as it stands now Haruka would probably finish anywhere from fifth to tenth but if I can do another 3-4 posts for her before the list begins Haruka just may squeeze into the fourth position and you read that here first!!!! PS: Every list I've done has been quite good and they've gotten much better over the years. But with almost every list I always seem to omit one woman who deserved to make a list I just finished. Haruka didn't make that second 'All Time' list done in the Summer of 2022 but looking back on it she did deserve to be included and think she would have been around the fourteenth position.

 Gulp, guess I have no alternative but to include on the two lists I'll be doing this year! While I wish Haruka could have had so many more posts over the years at least most are larger compared to most others and will say once again this will be one of the best if not best posts for 2026! For today have about seventy new photos and some older ones to bring the total up to about ninety, that's a large post but am trying to make them less than a hundred pictures these days. Very often begin off with recent photos from someone's IG page but Haruka posts so few pics there these days. Instead she has her new photos at her fan club page and did hold a recent event for the members so will begin off with some older pics from the site.

 This makes it four posts for Haruka since December 1st, one more and she'll qualify for the yearly faves list with one more post which hasn't happened in a while. But she did have a streak of making the top eight from 2019-21 but since then has only averaged four posts a year. Above had mentioned that most of Haruka's posts receive about 500 views in their first two months but gradually they inch up to a thousand over time. Her last post done on January 18th already has almost 700 views and it's her most popular post in years. The post was for a photobook that came out in 2023 for her Asadora series "Mai Agare!" which aired that year. It wasn't a photobook you're used to seeing here as there were no gravure pictures but the book was so fabulous, here's the link to it: "Gift" photobook

 No new magazine spreads for today but do have an oldie which featured Haruka as the cover girl for the April 14, 2023 issue of Friday. It was to promote the above book which came out on April 19th.

 I saw more of Haruka's dramas that she was in from 2016 to early 2023 than any other actress but only one since then, the total was a dozen dramas and two movies. So need to get back in track with her dramas though not all have been subbed, was thinking of making my next Japanese drama to view "Secret Makeover" from 2024 and that did get some positive reviews. Don't know how I missed that and another good one looks to be "A Brighter Tomorrow" from last year but that hasn't been subbed nor another from 2024 I wanted to view. Back in 2023 Haruka had the lead female role in the very popular movie "Till We Meet Again on the Lily Hill" which was set at the end of WWII. There's a sequel coming out this August as the first film was so successful so that should mean a few more posts for Haruka and the storyline for this second film looks better than the first. Speaking of dramas one of my top shows from 2019 was "CHEAT" which did star Haruka and below are some odd pics from it! No, she didn't have any major surgery done and I think she looks close to perfect the way she is!

 I had forgotten all about that drama which aired in the Autumn of 2019 for ten episodes. But a week ago did mention that show in a different post and then it occurred to me I had only recapped six of the ten episodes and was so baffled with why as the final four shows were so good. That could be a project to work on of recapping the final four shows but would also watch the first six episodes again. The reason I had brought up the drama again was because of doing a post last week for Yuria Kizaki and she is someone I like immensely but she's not quite at Haruka's level. Yuria was in the seventh episode and that was the best show of the entire series, her character's name was Masae Noro. The team of CHEAT helped people who were the victims of scams or blackmail, cases where the police couldn't or wouldn't get involved.

 There were five people on the CHEAT team, Haruka played the role of Mizuki who was an ace hacker and her skills at the computer were so priceless. In this episode Masae had claimed to be the victim of a fortune teller scheme and had been swindled out of 3 million yen! HOWEVER(!) Masae was anything but an innocent victim and had been working secretly with an underground organization to take down the CHEAT team as they were the #1 enemy of criminals! So that was one unique storyline and Yuria as Masae did make a return in the final episode. Still can't figure out why I didn't recap the final four shows as I did watch them and the episodes were all superb but least it now gives me a good reason to rewatch it. Below are some screenshots from the seventh episode which I just viewed again and it was better than I remembered it being. Yuria did look so amazing, she had a post last week and odds are high she'll have another at the end of the month.

 Over the years not many actresses have done as much modeling as Haruka has but she only stays with a site or clothing line of 4-6 months. Lately she's been an on/off model for the andGirl magazine, not too many recent pics but all get a grade of an A++++ from me!!!!

 Have even more new modeling pics that have come out in the last five weeks and are for Bvlgari which is an Italian brand of jewelry and watches. But if you're with Haruka watches are an item you don't need as you'd be wishing that time would never end! I just visited their site and let me tell you that I could work for a thousand years and still could never afford any of their jewelry or watches.... WOW! Can also use WOW for these new Haruka pics and least they're for FREE!!!!

 Will end off here and this large batch could be the top event photos of the year! On March 3rd Haruka was at an event for Bvlgari where she was appointed as the brand's Japanese ambassador and guess that's considered an honor, I've always thought of Haruka being more of a 'Down to earth' type of woman. Have plenty of super duper photos from the event and there's so many more so they may be in a future post. Haruka does have a YT channel but hasn't been updating it often, she usually has videos of where she's traveled to. Haruka doesn't have any CM's yet for the brand but some are due to come out soon. After these tremendous pics is a video from the event and Haruka just looks so darn good....
