Nao Kanzaki: 2017 calendars #1- Fumika, Masami, Mirei and Yuko

 Haven't been as many calendars to post this year, one reason is that a lot of faves have graduated from their groups which usually means no more calendars for them. Also some just don't have them these days whether it's by choice or some other reason, however even though there won't be as many should be a few that feature a fave(s) of yours.
 Masami never has had a calendar or hasn't for as long as I can remember. She does appear in the yearly TOHO calendar which features a different actress each month. All the pics are superb looking but the problem is they each only have one month, May is my new favorite month.

 Have a lot of incomplete sets so for now will post the months that I have with more coming on the way, the year is still only a few days old. Mirei is one actress who always has a calendar, actually two as she also has one for Homemate which I'll have soon. For her regular calendar have all except for the page for May/June but figured a few fans may want her on their desktop now, can't blame them.

 It's the AKB/HKT/NMB calendars which I don't have yet but as mentioned promise to have as many of them as soon as possible. Yuko is one former member who continues to have a yearly calendar and probably will forever. Did have these in her last post which was for finishing #2 on my 'Top Twenty Faves List' for 2016 but in case you missed them here's one more chance to grab them.

 That's a tough set of pics to beat but Fumika comes close to doing so. This set is another I'll be finishing off soon but she's close to being the most popular gal here and knew all of fans would like to have these.

Nao Kanzaki: 'Top Twenty Faves list for 2016' #2....? plus 2017 calendar

 Will have #1 coming up this Thursday or Friday but on to the bridesmaid....

 Hard to call Yuko a bridesmaid as who wouldn't want her for a bride!!!! She is my all time fave Idol but finished third last year so perhaps next year will be the charm. Do have to say she should have been #1 this year but for sentimental reasons decided to go with the gal who somehow topped her. Not the first time Yuko has been in the number two position as she finished second three times in the AKB Senbatsu elections, her other two times participating she was #1.
 Yuko is the second shortest gal on the top twenty list at 152 cm but looking at her her height is the only thing small about her. Been over two years since a photobook and her last one "Nugi Yagare!" was one of the best of all time. Yuko is 28 now and hit the mark on October 17th so let's hope she's like a lot of actresses/Idols who are close to thirty and releases another book(s).

 No dramas for 2016 but Yuko will be in one starting on January 18th titled "Tokyo Taraeba Musume". Will be checking that out, sadly her last show "Yamegoku" was never subbed. Sure that means we'll also be seeing her at a few events for the drama plus in a few mag spreads. That's been the only negative since leaving AKB is that Yuko doesn't appear in as many mags plus they're much more conservative pics. This first set of new pics is far from those kind though as Yuko looks terrific as usual from the December 9th issue of Friday.

 One other new set of pics is from the January issue of Ginger.

 Despite graduating from AKB Yuko still has a calendar every year which I'm sure most ex-members don't have. On December 5th she was at a promo event for her 2017 calendar at the Fukuya bookstore in Shinjuku and looking as good as ever.

 Here's the calendar and it may be the only one you need for 2017....wowowowowowowowow!!!!

 Ending off with some pics of prime perfection and most of the top half ones are new for here. If your heart can take the excitement check out a video after the pics which is the photo shoot for Yuko's 2010 photobook "Kimi wa, Dare no Mono?".
