sweet! I added it to my basket for the next purchase.

Ordered it today!

And Meetan already has a copy! It's actually much bigger than I expected

, for some reason I was expecting a small pocket book, but it seems standard magazine size!

Imo, they should've just went with the three girls on front to make a bigger impact. It looks a bit crowded now.

The mook is #1 on Amazon best sellers list!

Info from Amazon:

特別付録には、1冊につき1枚「サプライズポスター」が封入。5種類のうち、どれか１種類が入っていて、どのポスターが入っているかはお楽しみです。

※複数冊購入されるお客様は同じポスターが出る可能性もありますので、ご了承ください。

Basically it means that the book comes with a SURPRISE POSTER!

There are 5 types, you get a random one per book. They also warn you that if you buy 5 copies, you may end up with 5x the same poster.

Yeah but I doubt her head will be blocking Mayuyu's body in the actual PB pix

The mook includes pictures from/with all members so mayuyu won't be the only one you won't want to see then

Oh, I thought it was just gonna be the members on the cover. Good thing I didn't buy it then

^That's my fav unit from the concert

Btw, I noticed I used a similar profile pic for the Sasshi and Rena thread, they are doing the same pose

I think it's my favorite pose. Ganbare!

The book features over 90 members, so there is bound to be some young'uns and other girls I don't really like, but I can live with that

I knew that Otsuka Ai item was going to be trouble

Luckily I'm patient.

Waiting is terrible. I ordered the book in HMV together with Sae PB, but I canceled the Sae book coz rui (S48) offered to buy a signed one so of course, I went for the signed PB. I'll have to wait more for Sae, though

But it's worthy

I ordered the Iiwake single through CD Japan, so it wouldn't delay the order, LOL.

SomethingWild · « **Reply #2433 on:** August 21, 2009, 06:23:27 PM »

Ah! I thought I might have been you who went for Rui's deal

Nice!

I also ordered the single through CDJ --> Bonus picture and oricon sales!

edit: woohoo the AKBar has gone full size!!

AKB48, Nippon Ham Fighters among latest flu cases

Sat, August 22, 2009 (2:18am EDT)

Newspapers are reporting that the H1N1 influenza virus has reached epidemic level in Japan. Although some cases have been identified as typical flu infections, it is suspected that most of the current flu cases are of the H1N1 strain. Health concerns became especially heightened this past week, as Japan witnessed its first few swine flu deaths. Naturally, the entertainment industry has not been able to avoid the flu. Among those infected are Maximum the Hormone vocalist Ryo Kawakita (reported last week) and actor Takeru Sato, though only the former was identified as having the H1N1 strain. This week, several more cases were publicly reported, including members of baseball team Nippon Ham Fighters and idol group AKB48.

Four players and one coach for the Nippon Ham Fighters were diagnosed with influenza A, with two of them being the H1N1 strain. The five of them have been placed in isolation. Six AKB48 members have been sidelined - Team K's Manami Oku and Asuka Kuramochi, Team B's Aika Ohta and Haruka Kohara, and kenkyuusei members Haruka Ishida and Sumire Sato. They have all been diagnosed with influenza A, though it has not been said whether any of them are H1N1 cases. As a result, they will not participate in an AKB48 event at the Nippon Budokan this weekend. Meanwhile, Hong Kong's entertainment industry was also recently hit, as singer Stephy Tang was confirmed to be infected with the H1N1 virus.
