All AKB sub groups and related *48 groups welcome.

At AKB48 Kouhaku, red team won and Kasai Tomomi announced her graduation. Coming up next in releases are studio recording albums, Iwasa Misaki's 2nd solo single and SKE48's 11th single. Discuss.

I heard 毒リンゴを食べさせて for the first time a few days ago, it was performed at that Tokyo Dome event. Damn this song is awesome, it somehow has an incredibly calming effect on me, while getting me ridiculously excited at the same time.

I'm really going to miss Tomomi, even though I was never a big fan of hers. Preordered Masaka now to support her a bit, also because the type B cover is pretty cute.

So I am going to dump all the images of AKB47 that I have. I am pretty sure they all are from AKB47, but not really sure. They all are being closet lesbians for each other in my pics. I would like to label each one of my photos acording to who is in the pictures. I feel like AKB47 all have fallen into this weird state of sisterly lebianism mental brwak down and the record industry/PR managers are trying to keep hush hush about it.
Every other Idol has had mental break downs around 30 because of not being relavent and the systematic lifestyles that they were only taught.
I don't think my idea of AKB47 is that far fetched.

Whether you have forgiven her for her past sins or not, there's no denying that Sasshi is still vital for the success of the group.
Don't forget that one of the main reasons HaKaTa Hyakkaten is an awesome show is because of the fact she's the MC. This and her newfound sauciness. The role she covers inside the program is in many ways similar to the one represented by the Bad Boys in AKBingo, maybe with a little more of a sharp tongue on the side.

I can deny that she's vital. NMB didn't need a secondrate slut transferred into their group and neither does HKT. She's a bad influence on the younger members and her favourable treatment sets a terrible precedent. I've said all this before though.

Also, I could list hundreds of potential MCs who could be doing what she's doing right now. She's not that great in reality. Just Yasusu's favourite is all.

[(″･ิ_･ิ)っ-̾ !DQN/aQg2wY No.]

We don't have to argue about this and I respect your differing opinions, for the record, but I just won't be surprised if Shukan Bunshun someday publishes a story along the lines of what went on between Yonezawa Rumi and Hirajima Natsumi. She should have been treated like them or any other girl would have been in her position.

The producers have a responsibility to stop this sort of thing from happening and I don't think Sasshi has a very good track record is all I'm saying. I would not let my imouto be friends with a harlot.

As for Rabutan not fitting in as well as Sashihara, I'd say that this has a lot to do with favourable treatment towards the latter. For one of them, the move to HKT was a promotion to frontgirl status and MC, whereas for the other, it was pretty much a relegation. I believe Aika will be a good influence on the new girls, with all those years of experience behind her, while Sashihara is just stanking the place up with her slut stank and corrupting the innocent.

Hmm, Yuihan second rate? I'm curious, how do you call her that?

[(″･ิ_･ิ)っ-̾ !DQN/aQg2wY No.]

>>10239223
I was referring to Sashihara alone with that comment. Also, in the interests of full disclosure, I feel that I should probably admit to being an Ayarin fan and that this might have shaped my feelings towards Sasshi even before the scandal. The fact that the impostor Joan of Arc turned out to have done similar things to the true one at the same time and went unpunished just added to my madnicity.

Anyway, I would never bully Yui. I think she's lovely and she has the cutest accent.

By the way, I think >>10238982 is probably not someone from these threads. Anyone mad enough at me to tell me to get out is almost certainly someone who remembers me from elsewhere on the board. I bet he wouldn't even recognise me if I didn't have my trip. So low level.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10239526
While we're talking about Yuihan. One thing makes me wonder. How does AKS select girls ? First they discard her during SKE's 2gen auditions, and then 6 months later they select her as a AKB 9gen.

[(″･ิ_･ิ)っ-̾ !DQN/aQg2wY No.]

>>10239566
Well, I guess a lot of it comes down to how they come across on the day. I never saw those auditions so it's not like I can say what was different about her way back then but I can say that when she first joined AKB, I didn't really notice her nearly as much as I do these days so it's possible that back then she hadn't progressed to the level the producers felt was required to become a member in the first place.

I mean, just looking at her now, she seems so much more mature and professional than she did when she first joined AKB, at least to me, so yeah. I do have to wonder what she was like at the time she auditioned for SKE. Either way, she's much better off in AKB, so it was for the best in the end.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10238963

I don't see Rabutan's transfer as a relegation. It's more of a second chance for her to push herself. She wasn't going anywhere by staying with AKB. The same can be said with Harugon and Mariyannu.

[Anonymous No.]

Sasshi put Hakata on the map. Nobody was interested before she got transferred. HKT's G+ follower numbers exploded in the weeks following Sasshi's transfer. Also, NTV probably wouldn't have green-lighted Hyakkaten if Sasshi wasn't involved. It's a low budget show that airs past midnight, they're not going to hire some geinin to be the MCs over a member who can do the same thing. Besides, she's the bridge between AKB and HKT on the show.

[(″･ิ_･ิ)っ-̾ !DQN/aQg2wY No.]

>>10239605
This is how I had hoped it would be at first but as I watch HKT develop, it seems like she's just being left to lurk in the background as she was back in AKB, only this time she doesn't even have the exposure that Warota provided her so it's even worse than before.

Maybe it'll change in time and I'm just a huge pessimist, I don't know, but I still feel like Rabutan has a lot of potential and it has been squandered for far too long. I really hope she gets to make something of herself in HKT. I want to believe. ;_;

>>10239614
I was interested and lots of other people would have become interested just like they did the other groups. It's true that she does a good job as MC on Hakata Hyakkaten but I don't think she's the only one who could have done it and I think the group has by far benefited her way more than she has benefited the group. I also still feel that she should be punished just like any other member would be but we're long past the stage where that might have happened. I'll always feel slightly bitter about this. I know it's pathetic but I hold idol grudges for a long time. Gomen~.

For sure. She'll do a lot of good for NMB. I was referring to the audition rather than her having to remain solely AKB or anything like that. If she had entered SKE and later transferred from there to NMB, I don't think many people would have noticed, but as it is now, she's kind of a big deal.

[(″･ิ_･ิ)っ-̾ !DQN/aQg2wY No.]

>>10239789
You've made me realise something. I feel like it would have been harder for her to develop a more mature image if she had stayed in AKB since honestly I can't imagine her without it even now, but in HKT where she's essentially the senior of the other girls, I think people will almost be expecting a more mature attitude from her than she had before. I wonder how she'll turn out when she does start going down that path.

Hopefully it'll be better than Haru"san" or whatever I'm supposed to call Harugon now. At least Aika won't have to leave the country to successfully pull off a major image change.

From the little I've seen, I think this is already in process. I get the feeling she'll be the sharp-tongued neesan of the group. I wish she'll get back to her snarkiness in Hyakkaten, old AKBINGO style.

It has been a while. How have you been? Are you still following AKB now that the Acchan dynasty has come to an end?

I think you might enjoy HKT48 if you are seeking new idols by the way. Check out Hakata Hyakkaten someday if you get the time. You will have to learn to ignore Sashiwhorea though. It took some effort from me and I know you hold your idols to high standards just as I do. It's worth it though, trust me.

>>10235005
I'm sure you're not alone, but I don't agree.

I think a lot of people are put off by rotating senbatsu and graduating members. It hurts when your oshimen goes away. I have had it happen more than once.

You just gotta weather the storm and I think it's absolutely crucial that you enjoy the music. If you truly enjoy the music, nothing about AKB is stale, because they have continued to release high quality 3.5 minute pop songs of pretty much unwavering quality since the inception of the group.

If you're just in it because of an attachment to a single member, yeah, it's gonna be really hard to stay interested.

My first oshimen was a H!P girl who led the flagship group for several years. She was in the group when I first started listening to the unit and for about five years I saw other members graduate, but none of this really resonated with me because MY favorite was still there, leading, beautiful, and strong.

When they announce the graduation of your favorite member, it's like getting dumped. You're no longer going to have an endless supply of music, photos, and videos with which to connect to that member.

That's why it's gotta be about the music first.

Unless the music starts to suck and then you're really screwed.

>>10241160
This is pretty accurate. I tend to fall for just one member and throw all of my support behind her and when she leaves, I leave, and this is how it's always been for me.

The one thing that is capable of bringing me back is the music, as with my renewed but really mild interest in Momoclo recently, although I never quite get back into them to the same extent again.

To me, being single oshi is the most fun way to support idols, but it's also the hardest in the end when your girl leaves. One thing to keep in mind when the day does come though is that the group isn't necessarily finished objectively just because it's finished for you alone. AKB48 will almost certainly be dead to me aside from music, if even that, when my oshimen leaves but I won't start putting the group down or implying that they're finished just because my interest is. I believe and, well, hope that we have many more years of Suu ahead of us but I'll still love you guys (no homo) even when it comes to an end.

No, I pretty much stopped following AKB completely, though I still skim through these threads every now and then. I kind of gave up on "pure" idols entirely and have been spending ridiculous amounts of money on my new passion, gravure and chakuero DVDs/BDs. I hope you aren't too disappointed in me for abandoning all my principles and morals. ;_;

But as always, it's refreshing to see that you are still as enthusiastic about your oshi as ever. May she never betray you. ♥

I don't know how to explain it, but it's like.. they talk or sing in high pitched voices and so it sounds ridiculously unnatural and comes off as annoying... In comparison, in general Japanese idols are a little more reserved and calm.

Probably not the best examples but just off the top of my head:

I think I can see what you mean about high pitched voices, but I don't know, don't a lot of people say this about japanese music as well? Probably just need to get used to it.

So Mayuyu has named who she considers her rivals for the next center, in order: Milky, Jurina, Paruru
Thoughts?

[Anonymous No.]

>>10246091

Based on obvious facts it's because.
1. Milky is irrelevant and naming her as number 1 rival will offend no one.
2. Jurina is her ex-lover so she gives her number 2.
3. She is currently flirting with Paruru but wouldn't want to frighten her so she gives her the number 3 spot.

Kizaki Yuria's AmeBlog 22\12\2012

An English word that would make people become friends immediately(・∀・＞)

Everyone, good evening.
It’s Kizaki Yuria, who, for some reason,
really wants to get drenched in the rain right now. (・ω・´)

I’m in that mood, somehow lol
Now that I think of it, just recently,
on the day of AKB’s Kouhaku,
a JKT member approached me and said:
“Ohhhh, crocodile!!♪” (in English)

Since it was so sudden,
Kizaki wasn’t mentally prepared and panicked.
“Ohh, yes, yes, yes, yes!! Wani!!” (Crocodile in Japanese)
That’s what I said…
Even though I know the word “Crocodile”
since it’s being used in One Piece,
I still said “Wani” (〇>_<)

It was really like “OMG!!”(・ω・;;)
We were able to take a pic together,
but it all ended with the totally unable to talk in English me not even asking for her name… (・ω・｀)

I shall do my best in order to become friends with her
next time we’ll meet!!(・ω・´)

So, everyone, would you please tell me
an English word that would make
peple become friends immediately?

Today’s hand-shake event
really smelled like Christmas!＼(^O^)／
It was fun,
thank you so much(/ω＼)

Well then,
hoping that everyone will be able to sleep peacefully…

Good night Peace!!
& Good morning Peace!!

Yuria(・∀・＞)Peace
