Isn't Kitarie push in effect already?
I mean isn't she in that reality show Terrance House?

I guess NMB has their own Maeda vs Yuko ver.

Also what is Yuki up to? Didn't she get her solo thing going? or was that a bust?

>Dat Sayanee~

Some old songs like Skirt Hirari had that "touch" that newer songs don't have, what happened?

bump

Post the chick with the creepy smile.

>>10086957
Yuki's solo career starts in January, her solo concert comes out on dvd, she's starring in a drama, then her single.

>>10087631
Oshima? Itano?

>>10086957
I knew she looked familar

>>10087901
Are we talking main role in the drama or supporting cast?

>>10087908
but Itano's smile is beautiful ;_;

>>10086214
>rumors say Kitarie will get a big push

"About Tsuyogari Tokei MV (information collected on twitter):

-Super cool song
-KitaRie is there (appears a lot)
-Jurina cries while eating ramen …
-KitaRie appears more than WMatsui
-Totally different tune from what SKE has done before but extremely good.
-Basically KitaRie is in 3rd position in the dance formation (what should be Churi’s position). From front row to rear : JR -> KitaRie/Yuria-> Takayanagi/Manatsu -> others
-2nd part of the PV is roughly 100% centered on KitaRie’s story
-Outfits for the dance scenes are black and the girls look really cool.

Yuihan -> NMB48, Jo graduates.
Kitarie -> SKE48, Kuumin graduates.

Conspiracies aside, NMB has the best looking MV's.

>>10087908
I'm not familiar with AKB but this chick. She stands out the most to me because of her inhuman smile.

>>10088052
They haven't said much about it so I assume it'll follow the usual pattern, she's the main character but it airs after midnight so only AKB fans will see it.

>>10088322
That's Mayu, and it's actually a long standing joke among fans and AKB themselves that she's an idol cyborg.

>>10088369
Then we must have more robotic smiles in this thread.

>>10088574
lol, come on man. You can post better images than that.

On another note...

>>10088369
>That's Mayu, and it's actually a long standing joke among fans and AKB themselves that she's an idol cyborg.
Where did that joke come from?
Though she's a bit less expressive than other girls, she's far from robotic.

>>10091420
>Where did that joke come from?
AKB themself, probably originated amongst some wota.
Also, I like her smile a lot.

>>10091437
She is funny too.

Oh wait....

I don't know how to describe it but Mayuyu seems a bit too "manufactured" for my liking. :s

>>10091794
That's probably part of her appeal.

Can't have Mayuyu without Yukirin.

>>10094602
Yui's just too innocent to know the proper posture and angle for showing off your ass

>>10094602
I love all NMB 3-top, but Yui next to SayaMilky in bikinis really is a bad idea. Looks decent in non-bikini though, pic related.

>>10091420
Seems like something that the unpopular members would say about her because they are jealous of her popularity.

I can't watch AKB*, they all look like mutants and I can only stand so much ugly. I might as well just watch some Korean idol band if I wanted to watch ugly girls who can't sing or dance prance around a stage.

>>10095321
I get the appeal of these kinds of groups but I've never gotten into them myself. Maybe I'm just too far gone in the 3DPD zone even though I'd like to think I'm not quite there yet either.

It seems to me that only one in five of them look somewhat attractive.

>>10095054
As far as I know it's more of a "she's so perfect no human could be like that" thing.

Happy birthday for the worst HKT!

>>10095607
Oh, it's definitely not that.

She's soulless and fake. She's like a creepy doll. Sad thing is, that means she'll have a lot of fans, because the japanese are creepy like that.

>>10095664
This.

Nothing that doesn't run on batteries or have a latex vagina has ever come so close to bridging the uncanny valley.

>>10095664
>She's soulless and fake.
Did you ever see her in motion?
She looks pretty normal to me.

>>10095321
I'm only into AKB for their songs, and Takamina.

>>10095942
she looks Korean

>>10095616

too bad she graduated so soon, she had many good years ahead of her. Also, I feel we're lacking young girls, apart from the kenkyusei.

>>10095844
That's what they want you to think.

>>10096708
Is that minami?

>>10096876
why do you need to ask?

>>10096885
My mental image of her is ribbon = takahashi

>>10096895
She's probably still wearing one under that hat

>>10096895
a while back, a fortune teller told her if she stopped wearing the ribbons and cut her long sideburn hair, her fortune will become a lot better (i think it was akbingo).

Wait, what the fuck? do they believe these things? I thought akbingo segments of this were acted.

>>10096997
oh snap

>>10097118
The japanese are completely retarded. They believe blood type affects personalities and that some women can bring rain.

>>10097368
>blood type
I never got how they could care about random bullshit like that so much. But then again, my only base of knowledge are anime and idol stuff, I guess most/regular people will laugh this shit off as we do with horoscopes and stuff.

>>10096701
She's still so young... too bad she went early.

Knowing she's still good friends with Mariko, I wonder how she feels about the group's success.

>>10096701
>>10097414

Yep.

>>10095664

Do you realize what board you're on? Fuck off or give us your oshimen so we can trash talk her like you are doing to Mayuyu.

>>10095717
>Nothing that doesn't run on batteries or have a latex vagina has ever come so close to bridging the uncanny valley.
Nope, but I laughed. That was... quite good.

I seriously can't stand her for some reason, I don't really know myself why. Kinda hate her face, probably.

>>10098629
Then how about Takamina, or Itano?

>>10098646
I'm really not that picky usually. I didn't chose to hate her either, I know she's popular and I would've rather enjoyed that she appears a lot.

Other than Mayu, I think Minami is my favorite AKB so far.

I am having trouble picking out her voice in the songs though.

All the fucks she doesn't give shows up well on her face.

It'll be back in the spotlight once the DVD/BDs are announced.

>>10101332
I've got to point out that Taylor is sitting down in this pic. Atsuko isn't even one of the short AKBs...

>>10102268
googled it myself now, a girl named "Taylor Swift" apparently who seems to be quite popular amongst murricans. I wonder how they went about the interview though, did they talk english?

>>10102286
>implying that anyone in AKB can speak more than a few words of engrish. Well, other than ひらりー

>>10103462
I know, that's why I was wondering. Her english will still be better than swift's japanese though, so how else would they go about it?

>>10103631
They obviously have an interpreter.

>>10103934
sounds impractical for a radio interview, but very well.

>>10102286
Like this

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RP4Fg-QgoZg

>>10103953
It's obviously not just for the radio interview. Politicians and celebs hire a personal interpreter for their whole trip there because they're gonna be doing dozens of interviews and appearances.

>>10103953
it wasn't live. they pre-recorded it and it's being broadcast in 5 minute chunks

>>10104002
It's not even funny anymore what a gaijin-dick craving slut Acchan is. Shit, I'm glad she's gone.

Also, I'm sure he tapped that.

>>10104492
I don't blame her. She basically saw the worst of what Japan has to offer for men at concerts and handshaking events. It probably ruined Japanese men for her.

>>10104653
that's making an awful lot of sense actually

I wonder how Erepyon would fit in with the current AKB48.

Is Itano's fang normal or induced?

I keep looking at it like something anormal, but i like that fang.

NMB48 Geinin! is so fucking funny. Great if you want to know more about NMB48.

Maachun is so adorable.

>>10105788
Her fang is natural.

>>10105788
If you look at her early pictures she has it. It'd probably be illegal for a girl to have an aesthetic dental surgery at 13-14.

Who cares.

>>10109226

>>10104889
>>apparently they just set another Guinness world record:

I have a question. According to Oricon, AKB48 also made nearly a quarter billion dollars last year in music sales alone. If you combined all their profits from shows, concerts, merchandise, etc, wouldn't they be the highest earning pop group in the world?

I can't find any info about it anywhere online as far as other earnings go, for them or anyone else for that matter.

>>10110370
Well it's more like a corporation than a group, so their revenue isn't that much considering all the overhead

they were kawaii together

>>10110575
she was definitively crying and sobing on the first pic. I saw the whole show and she was trying her eyes out when Acchan had her winner speech. "Hate me, but don't hate AKB." etc. feelsbadman.jpg

>>10100464
She's got a cute personality, but she can't really sing or dance.

>>10104676
It does indeed.

>>10110575
That is pretty amazing. The look on Tomochin's face when Acchan won Senbatsu 3. Wow. That is priceless.

>>10110575
oh wow

>>10110783
>She's got a cute personality, but she can't really sing or dance.

Objectively wrong on the dance part, it's the one thing she's good at. Back when they did a poll of all of the AKB girls she came in first by a wide margin for the best dancer question.

She's probably still the best in AKB, but maybe only top 10 in the whole 48 family.

>>10110575
I see one screencap where she is out of focus and another where she is smiling while performing because that is her job.

>>10110575
Why would Itano care if Maeda came in first? Not like Itano would win either way. Image seems a little silly.

>>10110575
Nice and all anon, but one thing:

she was the only one smiling tho while others were sad/crying etc

has kitahara fucked the guy from her show terrance house yet?

>>10111673
Who knows...most likely they have.
They are just not openly going to say it.
They both and specially her know whats at stake.

I did hear rumors that she is going through that wanting a bf phase. So maybe this was her chance to get away with it.

Terrace House is fake and scripted. Aki-P is just causing controversy to promote AKB. First ep of the show, the firefighter had a "crush" on Kitarie.

>>10111673
> terrance house

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

mfw Akimoto's whorehouse has fallen so low that they've scraped through the bottom of the barrel and are now openly ripping off superior idols

I wish these two got more spotlight instead of Paru.

>>10111986

>Maeda was overjoyed when they called each other by their nicknames “Tay” and “Acchan”. She even blurted out, “I love her so much, I can’t believe I’m talking to her,” while in the middle of the interview.

Learning that Maeda has parted from AKB48, Taylor encouraged her saying, “Good luck with your solo activities. I’ll be cheering you on.” After wrapping up the interview, Maeda said, ”It’s still like a dream. I don’t want her to go.”

>>10094602
>those flat asses, almost no tits at all
Are all Japanese girls this unattractive?

>>10113707
Jesus, it's not like Taylor Swift is that big of a star. She's basically unknown everywhere in the world except in a few parts of America. AKB is probably more popular overall.

>>10119094
Are you high?
She's a famous pop star everywhere in the anglosphere and reasonably well known in the rest of the first world. Her latest album was number one in the top ten of the charts everywhere.

Barely anyone is aware that AKB exists in Europe and it probably doesn't look much better in America. I don't recall seeing them in the charts at all anywhere but in Japan. It's possible that they are well known in SE Asia too, but that's it.

>>10119019
No, there are some exceptions, but not much.
The Japanese are cursed with ugly faces, fucked up teeth, small breasts and asses and awful waist to hip ratios.
Only very few conquer all of them and are complete beauties.
Even idols who happen to have pretty faces and decent breasts often suffer from having very narrow hips, which makes the lower half of their bodies look like that of young men.

>>10119243
>The Japanese are cursed with ugly faces, fucked up teeth, small breasts and asses and awful waist to hip ratios.

I like Azumi Mizushima and Yuria Satomi.
JAV is not the topic of this threads though and you should never start a sentence with "tfw".

Starting to enjoy Eien Pressure. Somehow it gives me the same vibes as Ponytail to Shushu. Lyric quality is pretty low tier for Akimoto though.

I don't really hate anyone personally. There's girls I dislike and girls I don't think deserve their push, but no one I'd hate.

>>10111130
>Back when they did a poll of all of the AKB girls she came in first by a wide margin for the best dancer question.

Really? I never notice anything special at the lives and I must not have seen that poll, either. They don't really focus on her in the videos either. Do you have any links to her dancing?

I always thought Tomochin was kinda considered the best dancer.

>>10121713
>I always thought Tomochin was kinda considered the best dancer.
It's hard to be the best when you look like you don't give a fuck 90% of the time.

>>10121755
I thought that gap was a part of her appeal.

>>10121937
I suppose it is. I'm just not really a huge fan of her, nor do I consider her the best dancer. I can't really remember her standing out in any MV and during most of the live performances she comes off as lazy.

AKB48 sang the song Sugar Rush for all versions of the movie Wreck It Ralph (called Sugar Rush in Japan). They now have a new fan in the anglosphere.

>>10122910
Haven't seen the movie. I find it hard to believe Disney allowed AKB48 of all things to feature in their movie, let alone keep it in for the NA release.

I loved AKB0048, but it didn't do a damn thing to turn me into a fan of the IRL group's music.

Isn't the IRL music the same as the music in the anime...?

>>10123409
Just wait til next season.
Maybe it will happen then.

>>10123476

Yes.

The show is good for its characters, drama, setting, and comedy, not its music.

Doubtful.

I still can't believe it's true.

It's funny because I wasn't even aware of it, and we were just hanging around after the movie ended because it was a neat credits sequence. It was nice.

It also marked one of the many points where I question what I do with my life, because I managed to randomly pick out Takamina's voice in a setting where I didn't expect it.

>>10123369
You only hear snippets of it during the movie. The full song is played during the ending credits.

>>10123409
I am looking forward to the upcoming season.

Speaking of 0048...

Already hyped. Nothing gets me like some good old fashioned space beamspam and lightsabers.

>Lots of design to do on AKB0048 and Symphogear 2... AKB0048 ep 18 will be epic, in a star wars kind of way!
Ep 18 = AKB0048 ep 6 of season 2, or AKB0048 ep 18 of season 2?

This is probably an episode every 48 fan goes through, one way or another...

Obi Wan?

I'd prefer it if this show didn't kill anybody off, though. I applaud Kawamori for not taking all of the crappy cliched deaths and cheap drama that appeared be being set up over the course of the first season.

>>10124057

The two on the left are Japanese (Miyazawa Sae,Suzuki Mariya). The rest are Chinese and are the 1st generation of SNH48 (Shanghai, China).

Can't wait for Hyakkaten!

I'm not sure I can survive 2 weeks without Hyakkaten...

Where can I download these? I went to http://www.idol48vn.com but I can't read shit.

>>10127922
The same place you can download everything else AKB related. Hello!Online

>>10123369

They did, and didn't even translate the lyrics in the American version... BUT, in the first American preview they showed very little of the Sugar Rush game and quite a bit of Hero's Duty... turns out the whole second half of the movie is about Sugar Rush, and Hero's Duty is merely a plot-important cameo. Frankly, it was an extremely pleasant surprise to see Vanellope and the saturated world of Sugar Rush get such a big part in the movie, as well as to hear a song in the exact style I've been looking for for years (closest thing I found was the artificial "nightcore", which is sped-up high-pitched Europop) but couldn't find... turns out a certain island nation in the Far East (whose 649 pocket monsters I am a major fan of) produces it (along with music videos which remind me of the colorful sets of Disney Channel, which I also like) by the bucketload.

TL;DR: 日本が大好きです。

Where's the best place to download this sort of music? I bought AKB48's "Best Hits" CD a while back in Japan, and pirated another album off demonoid (RIP).

Where could I find the other 48's stuff?

I've been a fan ever since too

Thank you, wise sage.

She may not be your oshi, but Sato Amina is pretty awesome. Here's her backstory.

http://aakun.livejournal.com/1159.html

So China is officially safe again for the Japanese??

>>10129823
She's not my favorite, but she certainly stands out a lot for some reason to me and I can't explain it why. Every time she shows up I'm like, "Hey, it's Amina!" Maybe it's the voice? Or maybe how I can't stop thinking "amino acid."

>>10129823
Amina makes me sad because I don't know whether I should love or hate Iiwake Maybe. On the other hand it's the only A-side where I can hear her voice, on the other hand the PV just screams UNFAIR UNFAIR UNFAIR to me...

Seems my money didn't completely go to waste.

The 3day Tokyo Dome thing is definitely my new favorite concert from now on, shit, Haruna's outfit during スキャンダラスに行こう alone makes it glorious as fuck. Gonna try ordering the BD with what little money I can spare.

Can't stop watching the team shuffle announcement. Especially Takamina's, Miichan's and Yukirin's reactions to Sae's transfer gets me every time.

>>10134027

Yuka's getting DA PUMP

Has anyone paid any attention to BII anyway? I find Shu cute but besides that I haven't really...

If you could choose any 48 girl to get a photobook of their own, which girl would you choose?

tl;dr to those who can't into moon:
She says not everything is true, but she did spend a night at his place. She announced that she'll withdraw from AKB.

>>10137117
Fuck, the best singer in AKB.

>>10137117
Wow, at the peak of her career too. DiVA is finished. I thought she would leave after Wiz and move on from there.

Idoru is fucking serious business.

>>10137539
> I thought she would leave after Wiz and move on from there.
I think she used this silly "scandal" as excuse to leave AKB

>>10137626
Can't argue with that.

Sayanee came a long way from her previous band.

Was there any shows where the members told their horror / supernatural experiences ?
