Minegishi Minami (Miichan) / 1st Generation

Miichan's twitter

A fan wrote this about the book handout meeting
https://twitter.com/RIKIYA46445029/status/1598948302250471426

I went back through her/his timeline and found an in process version

Those are some skills ....
I first assumed it was a she, because of the drawings, but the twitter profile say "I'm a big truck driver" (in which case it still could be a she of course) and "I'm a big brother" (which settles it )
He posted a pic of the venue

 

Miichan for the first time commented on the Naachan situation.
She seems pretty upset with how people have forgotten how serious and hard working Naachan was for over 10 years.
And she also said she wants to support Naachan the same way Yuko did for her, showing up late at night to take her for a walk when she was down and lonely



Japan scores!

Miichan in the fan club: "I was watching Costa Rica" ....
She must be trolling her fans as it was in response to

I think some fans ascribe Miichan with a bit too much power

btw, all those pics of Miichan on the wall ... he may be her husband, but it seems he's still her fan as well

 

The Japan YouTube awards were today, of course Tetsuya (and Tokai on Air) was an important guest
Guess which video ranked #5 in trending for 2022

Spoiler

kinda surprisingly it's not the wedding announcement video, it's the wedding pictures making of


(in the comments people are asking for the video making of ...which to be honest I'd like to see as well)

Miichan paid a visit to Yuu-chan, her (and Kitarie's and Yuria's) hairdresser


I think the face mask is available now? (just checked the site, it is)

Yuu-chan says it's really good and she also emphasises that she doesn't say that because they are friends

Miichan will be hosting part of Amazon Prime's Lookback Project 2022


It slipped my mind, but Miichan is 'editor in chief' for four months of J!NS Park
https://park.jins.com/feature/editor/editor-3/
There's an interview with Miichan and two interviews she did herself

 

Ah, come on!!!!
Those pics must be at least 5 years old

(as usual with auto translation it's kinda hard to see who is saying what, especially in the last part)

btw, I'm with Tetsuya on this ... I always kinda liked Miichan's hamster looks.
But she does seem to get more traditionally beautiful over the years.


Miichan's twitter

 

Miichan did an instagram live for her Etoma facemask brand
https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl8ptjAA4tO/

first few customers get a postcard and there are also seem to be some signed postcards


Miichan is still not afraid to be silly

 

Miichan and Tetsuya were featured in Nyannyan's second Paris vlog

 

Book handover event in Kyoto ....


I know it was on a Sunday so the mall would have been busy, but still, the amount of people watching, and the number of books ready for distribution!

this just popped up in my YouTube recommendations

if the video does not show watch the video here

I thinks this kinda sums up Miichan, she just wanted to be loved

 

Miichan will appear in an 'New Year Special' radio program fro Nippon Broadcasting Systems on Friday, December 30 from 16:30 - 17:10

Miichan spend an hour signing the posters for the fanclub members that bought the complete birthday set.
Calling out all the members as she signed their posters
(I really should have bought the whole set, just to hear her attempt to pronounce my name )


advertorial article about the contents of Miichan's bag
(I thought it was an advertorial but the article states that all the items are personal and may not be available for purchase)

https://www.biteki.com/make-up/others/1608840



The article says Miichan calls the bag her 'Koji Haru bag'

Her main bag always has a book

and earbuds she got from Tetsuya
"small Tetsuya for ears"


btw, in the fanclub you can like something multiple times, so many fans give pics etc. 31 hearts
but when they really like something they go voor 373 likes, mi-nana-mi

 

Miichan wants desperately for Tetsuya to have a smooth skin
so ... this happens


Not sure what to think about the matching pyjamas though (couples wearing the same clothes over here are always of a certain type )

it seem Tetsuya was somewhat surprised by Miichan choice of colour, he expected light blue .... but Miichan said 'Christmas'

(ok, it probably helps to promote the brand as well)

Someone in the fanclub mentioned Miichan was on TV and then said it was great she bought a house for her parents, I know it's something Miichan said she wanted to do in the past, but I don't know if it really happened.
It sure would be nice.


Btw, Miichan mentioned the 'Onigiri handout event' on Sayonara Mouri-san
As I understand the members (just Team A and Team K at that time) where instructed to bring their favourite food and onigiri were made with that (if that was even possible)
Miichan brought peanutbutter ... so her onigiri turned orange, foreshadowing?

Miichan's facemask got a celebrity endorsement



First Summer Uika

 

New article on JINS Park, Interview with Miichan and Afro, half of MOROHA
https://park.jins.com/feature/editor/editor-3/minegishiminami4/

that sounds a bit like a suck up line, but they seem to connect in a way, so he might just de sincere, and in that case it's a huge compliment

they talk about when they met before and they both performed a song, Miichan got into his song and cried ... and then performed Watashi wa Watashi herself





Miichan gifted a pack of etoma masks to Miki-chan

Tetsuya got his house ready for christmas
https://twitter.com/TO_TETSUYA/status/1605567274210820096
(video in the tweet)

Miichan promised to clean everything up as a thank you

(I still think that poster from 'South' of his wife is kinda hilarious )

 

Miichan celebrated Christmas, she got a celery(?) hug pillow

 

That still is some of the more goofy MV's AKB has .... at the end they all end up in a blender

otoh ... theres also the MV where all members are pinned to a board .... like insects :/

or the one where Sasshii and others are toilet rolls

 

Well, at least the pinned them through their dresses and not though a part of their anatomy
Ow, that reminds me ..... suddenly YouTube videos are visible again in the Wiki on Safari
