Former Nogizaka46 member Yuki Yoda, current member Tsutsui Ayame, and Hinatazaka46 member Kanemura Miku will grace the cover of the 2026 winter issue of fashion magazine "bis" (Kobunsha), which goes on sale on December 1st. This will be the last issue of the magazine as a regular publication, and it will be the first time that all three regular models will appear together.
The magazine was first published in June 2001 and ceased publication in 2006. It was revived in October 2017 as a "fashion culture magazine for those who will always have a girly heart," but this issue will mark the end of regular publication.
The three appear together on the cover and the first 16 pages of the magazine. Yoda expressed her delight at the collaboration, saying, "I never dreamed that a collaboration like this would come true. I've never seen a combination of a former Nogizaka46 member, a current Nogizaka46 member, and a Hinatazaka46 member before, and it's rare to see graduates and current members together in the first place, so I thought it was a really valuable episode."
Kanemura commented, "I've always wanted to shoot with the two of you, so I'm really happy that it's come true. It feels like a dream to be talking with you two."
Tsutsui recalled, "I've shot with Yu-chan (what Yoda calls her) before, but I was really happy to be able to shoot with Kanemura as a trio. Shooting together, it didn't feel like the first time at all. In fact, I felt so comfortable that I almost felt like we were all in the same group."
The issue also features a three-way discussion between the three, in which they talk about their impressions of each other, their commonalities, and their memories as bis models. The back cover of the issue features Hinatazaka46 4th generation members Yoko Shogenji and Kaho Fujishima.
