AKB48 Blog Announcement

Some Comments:

00. Guru guru curtain (Nogizaka46)

- See, this is why I'm never buying this whole 'AKB's official rival' schtick they have going on for them. What kind of 'rival' guests in another group's concerts? It's manufactured 'rivalry', is what it is. In the end, they're just another sister cousin group to AKB. 
- Lol at Wasshoi E! Where did this come from? It wasn't even in SKE's Top 50!
- Lots of huge drops!!! Theater no Megami went from 51 to 100; Anata ga Ite Kureta Kara from 19 to 96  ; Seifuku Resistance from 37 to 90; First Love from 16 to 86; and Kimi ni Tsuite from 26 to 80.
- On the upside, we've got Dakishimeraretara ranking in again (107 to 98); Pajama Drive (from 154 to 99) and To be Continued (130 to 89).
- I personally love Iikagen no Susume, so it's nice to see it ranking this year.
- Koi wo kataru shijin ni narenakute actually moved up the list!! I know SKE has their own Request Hour going for them but it's really nice to see how their songs fare against the AKB ones.

[SomethingWild]

83. FIRST LOVE (KKS: Kato Rena)

NICE. IIRC she got the center in Nagisa no Cherry during last AKB48 concert. I think she'll be promoted really soon. 

Random pics:

Exactly. Like I said earlier:

- If they are really AKB48's rivals, why would people who like AKB48 support them?
- If AKB48 haters want to support AKB48's rivals, why go for N46 (yet another Aki-P group) instead of Momoiro, Passpo, etc etc? They're even listed under AKB48 at CDJ  so I guess a lot of people group them together with AKB48 since it's just another Aki-P project.

The only thing that sets them apart from AKB48 at the moment is that they don't wear seifuku and that they don't have a theater? Some of the girls are definitely interesting, but I can't see how they will ever be able to compete with AKB48 based on the above.

But yeah, N46 definitely looks like another AKB48 sister group atm.

[gekikarabuACE]

I reckon she'll be the next 'Yui' for 2012, lol! Getting that solo is a super mega push, imo. Though without Erepyon or even Mayuyu singing it tonight, would we still see FIRST LOVE this time next year?

Eh, Nogisaka46 don't wear seifuku? I didn't know that. But I swear I saw an 'Aitakatta Kamoshirenai' perf recently where they were clearly wearing one. See, they're even singing an iconic AKB song (albeit a modified one) and riding its popularity. So much for rivalry. I guess we still have to see how this whole thing pans out, but this AKB vs. Nogisaka things feels more like watching MajiJo vs. Yabakune skit in an AKB concert atm. Lol!

[Dragonfan]

What´s doing DIVA there? I thought units were going to have there own day.

[jafeijai]

^ It's DIVA, as in the b-side 'unit', not DiVA. Slight difference, since their song was released as a b-side and not as a subunit single.

Highlights:

00. Guru guru curtain (Nogizaka46)
98. Dakishimeraretara (K5 - Kasai, Kuramochi, Sato N)
97. Dear my Teacher (A1 - line-up from A5, Takajo center)
94. Higurashi no Koi (H1 - Takahashi M, Masuda Y)
88. 16nin shimai no uta (K4 - Sato N, Matsubara, Kobayashi K)
86. Nakeru Basho (DIVA)
82. Iikagen no Susume (Kojima H, Shinoda, Matsui R, Miyazawa, Akimoto, Katayama)
MC08. Google+ senbatsu: Takajo, Matsui S, Ishida, Nakaya, Nakamata
Announcement: Ultraman movie team U announced, Lost the way will be the movie's theme son
EN01. Lost the way (DiVA) - release date: March 7th

- Dang, didn't expect Nogizaka to show up. ..Better not have been boo's though
- It's been AGES since Dakishimeraretara was performed with the original members (..one year ago? ^^;) so glad it makes it into the rankings this year too
- +1 for Dear my Teacher too; always great when classic songs remain in the rankings
- +1 for classic song; they should do something like HimawaraiGumi again just to shake things up
- Loving that 16nin Shimai came back, but from what I've seen, Nonti/Meetan weren't at this show, so that kinda takes away from the appeal
- It's Nakeru Basho. 'nuff said.
- The song that brought about the true CG idol I wonder if Sasaki was made up as Eguchi this time too..
- The best 'shuffle' song from the latest album \o/ Though with Iikagen showing up here, I'm guessing the uber imouto song will appear in the following days..
- ぐぐたす選抜 ｷﾀ━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━! Apparently Sakiko posted on G+ on stage during this MC
- DiVA release?! HELL YAAAAAAAAAA━━━━━━＼(ﾟ∀ﾟ)／━━━━━━ !!!!! Since it's the theme for the movie, I'm guessing it'll be another upbeat dance song, which is great in my books.

[+u+u]

TEAM K  Nice amount of songs they have~
Totally looking forward to see Blue Rose and Nakeru Basho 

[gekikarabuACE]

------ END of 2ND DAY ------

Some Comments:
- Lololol! Yui appearing as Honmayan is so random~!
- Excluding the sub-units songs are obviously doing wonders for some of the stage classics. Hello Himawari and Saishuu!
- Gomen ne, Summer and Yoroshiku have gone from being day 3 & 4 to day 2. Banzai Venus appeared too early. I’d like to think that this means more SKE unit songs made it in, but it’s highly unlikely. I’m hoping for at least one SKE single to rank in day 4. Pareo or Oki Doki, either would be fine.
- Wow, after 2 days: Team A - 5 stage songs; Team K - 14 stage songs; Team B - 6 stage songs. Either most of these voting people just liked Team K songs better than the other teams, or Team A/B are going to be dominating the 3rd and 4th days (which would explain why Team K songs have been dropping like flies until this point). I know Yuko's solo would probably appear on day 4, but what about the other K units? Sayaka's solo? End Roll? Sae's unit? Have they really been forgotten already? EDIT: End frickin' Roll appeared. There's no more Team K song left!!!   
- We finally have our first casualty in Naminda, Surprise. The first A-side single to drop in rankings this year.
- RIVER at 54! What is this?!?! 
- An NMB single has yet to rank yet. Day 3 perhaps?
- Nationwide concert spanning all 47 prefectures? Woah~
- JKT48 showing up again. They're flying these girls back and forth. I would've thought them showing up last month was a one-time thing, but apparently they're here to stay?

EN2 SKE48 / "Kataomoi Finally"

Oh yeah~!  But more importantly, we need the full PV!

[pastil]

MC: Matsui Sakiko, Matsui Jurina, Matsui Rena (Matsui Matsuri! Lol!)

This will be too much awesomeness at once for my brain to handle when we get video footage.


Saishuu Bell ga Naru fuck yeah.

[YKT]

1st day on jijipress...click to view on YT

[+u+u]

- Wow, after 2 days: Team A - 5 stage songs; Team K - 14 stage songs; Team B - 6 stage songs.

There's no more Team K song left!!!   

I don't mind about the rankings so much. I'm happy Team K at least got so many songs voted~  It's great to see them on the stage, no matter if it's on the first day or the last day

I think so too, I don't really care about the ranking, the most important is to have your favourite song in all the Request Hour. For the ranking I just care about the position of my favourite songs.
The day 2 is really good!

Not my top favourite songs but I think this part can be really good:

73. (68) Tenshi no shippo (Ota, Nakatsuka, Nakaya) [B3rd]
72. (32) Gomen ne, SUMMER [SKE48 3rd Single]
71. (104) Himawari (Akimoto, Kuramochi  for Noro, Shinoda, Matsubara for Oshima M) [H1st]
70. (54) Tsundere (Itano, Kitahara, Sato Amina) [A5th]

Look forward to see the day 3 and 4! I hope there is more Team B song!

------ END of 3RD DAY ------


Some Comments:
- Mammoth at 50. Way to start the show today!
-SKE unit songs are actually increasing in rank! I like it~!
- Nooooo~! 10-nen zakura dropped as well. The best AKB sakura song (imo, at least) has come to this. Why are singles dropping so low? I mean, it’s not like there are new stages out there (except for KII’s). With the removal of the sub-unit songs, it’s expected that some stage songs make it in. I just didn’t expect it to displace the singles ranking.
- Temodemo no Namida with Rena and Yuki!!! Aki-P, you big tease! I knew you noticed it ages ago. It can't be all just a coincidence. Now give us something more here. And while you're at it, include Center and Nezumi in it. 
- There's a captain MC by Team A, Team K and Team B... Where is Team 4? See, how can the fans take Team 4 seriously (as in, a real team) if they keep on shafting them and mixing them up with the KKS.
- Expecting an A6th domination, but K and B are still going strong. Not to mention the singles are dropping. I don't even know what's going on anymore. What songs are taking the top spots? It can't be SKE, and I doubt it's SDN (though it won't be surprising if some of their songs come in tomorrow; they are graduating, after all, so fans might want to see it).
-Team YJ > Team PB this year
- Sakura no ki ni Narou only at 30? 
- Oki Doki finally comes in at 29. Pareo better appear tomorrow. Together with Kareha.
- Welcome back, Junai no Crescendo. I missed you~
- So after 3 days:
    Team A - 10 stage songs
    Team K - 17 stage songs
    Team B - 11 stage songs
- It's a Team K Matsuri, everyone!  No doubt tomorrow will have the appearance of the million-seller singles as well as the popular members' solos (Rena's, Yuki's, and Yuko's), which doesn't really leave much room for more Team A songs. 
- Since the last day is streaming tomorrow, I might not need to post the list here again together with the circulating pics. Sorry for spamming this thread, hahaha!

[muppet]

Amazing variety of songs- very impressive indeed.

[+u+u]

50 (--) Mammoth (with Ishida, Nonaka, Uchida, Tanabe, Chikano, and Oya in grad members’ spots) [K4th]

MAMMOTH!!!! This is awesome! 

EDIT: Omg... Mushi no Ballad still haven't ranked yet  I have mixed feeling about this.. either it's gone up a lot from last year which would be awesome, or it didn't make it at all... omg...   

[SomethingWild]

It was definitely a great idea to give the subunits their own concert. I'm glad to see more of the classics 

49 (77) Omoide ijou (Kinoshita, Hiramatsu, Matsui Jurina) [S3rd]
48 (119) Zannen shoujo (Uchida, Nakatsuka, Watanabe) [B4th]
47 (48) Kuchi-utsushi no chocolate (Ota, Kashiwagi, Hirajima)[B4th]

All my favs, quite low  but it'll make a great section on the DVD!

38 (30) Temodemo no namida (Kashiwagi, Matsui Rena)

GENIUS. Must see. 

Neko Rotation looks like a must see as well
