Bokura no Regatta is a fun song. PV's a bit lolwut like most past Shirogumi NMB PV's, but it's cool enough.

Sonzai Shiteinai Mono PV is hilarious, love it. And of course, wet Milky is always welcome. Fun song too, really like it.

Sunahama de Pistol is... lolwut.

But it's fun, and cool image. I'll happily follow Admiral Ripopo and Captain Fuuchan into any battle.

I see myself buying the edition with Sonzai Shiteinai Mono on it. Dat Milky, dat PV...

NMB48 is up against Idoling!!!

They discussed what they could do to take #1 instead of NMB48

Starting at 1:43:

- Thanks to LarcKen

Their fans didn't seem to have much faith. Only around four of them raised their hand thinking they could take #1

Those coupling PV's are all very... lolwut

Shirogumi all 1800's style and dancing with white guys, Akagumi reverse falling in pools, and...
Nanba Teppoutai Sono Ichi failing to be as cool as Pinochio Gun?
I like Akagumi's though. From the name and outfits Sunahama de Pistol would be better but... Oh well!
Still like Mousou Girlfriend best out of all the things on this single...

10 50.50 Jougasaki Mika (Yoshimura Haruka) - THE IDOLM@STER CINDERELLA MASTER 009 Jougasaki Mika

Note 1:

The NINKI ratings are the results of a POLL conducted by Oricon indicating degree of interest/degree of purchase intention in an upcoming release. Although the ratings are never a true reflection of sales, it does give a strong prediction about where the single/album will place in terms of popularity amongst the Japanese public. However, they are NOT an indication of how it will perform in terms of chart positioning and total sales for the week.

Note 2:

According to Oricon's note under the NINKI page, Oricon researches about 870,000 of its members by random sampling of 400 members in their 10s until 40s. 50 men and 50 women are chosen randomly to participate in each age group. (However, some popular artists have had NINKI exceeding 500, so we can only assume that Oricon has extended the polling to around 600/700 people now.)

I saw the CM with Mousou Girlfriend on TV at the time, but somehow I never got around to actually check out the rest of this single.

It's awesome! Virginity has a pretty original sound to it (for an idol song), yet it has some of the trademark NMB48 sound as well.
Mousou Girlfriend is a typical idol song, but with an epic PV. I think these songs could qualify for a double A-side.
One of the things I always loved about the 48 empire is that we get plenty of proper PVs with each release. The three coupling songs may not be the best songs in the 48 catalog, but all three get a proper PVs with their own theme and outfits. Very cool.

I have one complaint and that is the super uninspired covers. If they would have used the kitty outfits in an outdoor setting this single would've easily broken 500K.

First day sales near that of Junjou U-19. Thank fuck, because this single IS THE SHIT.

Anyway, I made some pretty spreadsheets with sales data for NMB: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AtcOaOJIQzJadFZDeUlOQWxwV05Zc3lyU3d0Vk9FcUE

Sunahama de Pistol
by Nanba Teppoutai Sono Ichi

...daydreaming

I would be very worried if I capture first place with only 15,093 votes thou.

I love the abundance of screen time for Fuuchan & Keira!
The group name is Nanba Teppoutai Sono Ichi (one), does that means there will be a second group?

Edit: oh that number is for the first day quick count... & it exactly the same as Yuko's result!
