Saito Asuka (Ashurin) / 1st Gen

Happy birthday

 

Happy belated birthday...
Ace and center of Nogizaka

 

To me Asuka-chan had a real growth, even in her personality recently. I can really see that in the group.
She feels much more bright, talkative, bold. It's like, since she is having that role of current "ace" of the group, she knew she needed to step-up, to have more a leading role, still with her usual personality, but in a way that makes her reliable as a pillar of the group. She doesn't want to be seen anymore just as the negative/shy girl, but one who you can laugh and joke with, where members and MCs can rely on.
Her progress on the group, as a senbatsu member and in her personality is really amazing and makes me impressed by her.

 

Saito Asuka will be the cover girl of Japanese manga magazine Weekly Shonen Magazine (No. 39), the magazine will be released on 26 August 2020.

Last night I watched latest ep of NogiChuu, it seems that the management is really pushing Eizouken! unit, Asuka, Mizuki, and Umechan, to have more air time.

 

It because the movie gonna out soon

 

Is it a recap of the series?

 

The movie? No, i think they have different plot.

About 2 minutes in, Asuka is in professional mode and attempts to introduce “Yamashita Mizuki.”

 

I'm sure I have mentioned it before but I completely dig this incarnation of Asuka. She's so much more cooler than before. I'm glad that the members have brought out a side of Asuka that even she knows is new...

Anyhow I saw on twitter this translation of an interview with Asuka speaking about being Nogi's current Ace. I found it interesting. Check it out here: https://twitter.com/marcomawira/status/1309804639735353344?s=20

 

Another interview with Asuka and Umezawa about Eizouken: https://twitter.com/marcomawira/status/1310927223445057538?s=20

Not as good as the previous that they posted, but interesting nonetheless. I wonder if she can open up to the rest of the members especially the newer ones?

Also, do you think there's a chance that some sakamichi subber would sub their appearance on Hinachoi? That looked like tons of fun...

I couldn't attach some files cus' they were too big. Anyhow, "soft and wet" sounds like a very wrong choice of words. Her legs were really beautiful though, best legs in Nogi imo, I want to lie down on her lap. It's been a while since she's shown some skin and one of the most popular members who will probably never take a swimsuit shot again. I love her either way.
