I haven’t checked Rina Koike’s blog lately.  She didn’t used to update much, but now that she’s graduated high school, she’s able to focus more on her career.  So I have some Rina news!

• Rina has put out her 9th photobook, “Graduate,” which was released earlier this month.
• In May, she’s going to be putting out another idol DVD, currently untitled.  It’s going to be released in 3D on Blu-Ray.
• Rina Koike is appearing in the special for J-drama series, Best House 123.  I’m not sure if she appeared in the rest of the series.
• She recently took part in Very Berry Live, her agency’s live talent showcase.  You can see her front and center as the agency’s top talent.
• Something’s also happening with Rina’s appearances in “Taiko no Tatsujin,” but err, I can’t really tell what?  Rina apparently approves of how she looks in the game, so that’s cool.
