~Hot Summer Reads 2015~
Continuing with my “tiny” Sakura~Covergirl obsession in printed media here’s going waaay back to this pretty incredible issue of FLASH, here it’s their coveted SPECIAL Gravure BEST issue from last December 5th.
Lots to love here with of course opening up and with a double feature here is Sakura first with my Oshi~♥ Mayuyu♥ followed by the “once in a thousand years idol” ….the every uber-adorable Hashimoto Kanna, Kashiwagi Yuki, Iriyama Anna, Yamamoto Sayaka, Watanabe Miyuki (whom still has one of the greatest nicknames in the business ever!!), Yoshiki Risa, Shiroma Miru, Yagura Fuuko, Kojima Mako, Mukaichi Mion, Kawamoto Saya, Hirata Rina & Mutou Tomu ^^.
Also showing the age of this issue is a highlighted article featuring AKB48’s Janken Tournament from last year where the fan vote rules in various categories including best bouts, wardrobes, etc… and there’s even a cool poster included at the center of this issue which is one of those pull out two-sided types featuring the girls in the tournament ^^.
Risa looks impossibly beautiful in her small pictorial. This section brings back good memories of watching the Janken, and I don’t care what anyone says, I still think nobody was all too happy about Milky winning it all. I swear at the end if you watch closely, you can see some of the girls unable to hide their disdain, but maybe that’s just my imagination playing tricks on me.
I also think Yukirin looks impossibly beautiful in her spread as well, short as it is. She has the best hips in all of the AKB48 group. I love her cocktail dress that she was wearing for the Janken Tournament. It makes me want to go back and watch the hostess show she did earlier this year (or was it last year? I can’t remember). She actually can act too, which I guess is no surprise since she kind of has it all. What a great upload this turned out to be!

I did hear rumours that the janken had been rigged so that Milky won, but maybe I should ask Fox Mulder to investigate that one.
A really great set of photos, and I agree with Derek about her beauty here. Also good to see Hirata Rina in a photoset.
