Phil, Phil...you had your shot my friend. By the way, this is a bit of the oshi bias talking but I really liked Rena's PV too. Its a continuous shot with a dream-like quality and the place is just gorgeous (the girl too, but that goes without saying). Waiting for some generous souls to sub it, onegaishimas
Tanjoubi omedetou to my 2ki oshimen, Moriya Rena-san! She will always be the first ever idol I have ever had a meet and greet with and it will stay special to me
There is 40 new and free to watch (until 27.3.) photos, but you need register with email... yanmaga.jp/specials/sakamichi I don't know how to download it...
I'm really late to jump on the Renaa bandwagon, yeah-yeah, but the Backs live proved to be a good opportunity to see the members in a new light. In Renaa's case, multuple kyuns have been had. Not to mention the part when she had to voice her lines before perfoming BAN (3rd day), forgot the words and started desperately trying to connect it together. Damn, for some reason I felt for her sooo much during this moment. I don't even care for burikko and stuff, but I have to admit that she is an exceptionally lovable character. If S&F play their cards right, I can see her going really big in a couple of years, the potential is there.
It’s been a bit quiet on this thread, but thought I should mention that Renaa now has a regular Thursday morning appearance on the variety show “Love It!” for two months! She’s already been on for two episodes and it seems that she’s been well received (I saw her trending on Twitter too). Her popularity has been increasing a lot since the 2nd single, I’m really excited to see what the future has in store for her.

Renaa photobook get~ the PB hunter strikes again! Got this (pictured here with Hinatazaka46's MeiMei PB) from my local Kinokuniya. The PB is simply fantastic. Impressions: "Rena is so pretty..." "ah, that's the cutie heart stealer I saw on SokoSaku..." "...yabaiii~" *dies of nosebleed* 5 stars and 2 thumbs up

Quite the surprise! I guess she's been out there lately and her face is more recognizable. I'm happy that management is correcting the mistakes of the past (cough, cough).
