^Kawamura Mahiro should also be in the "in" list.


Pro:
- Nanase center is interesting
- Mahiro deserves a spot in senbatsu

Con:
- Himeka OUT.
- Hori not center anymore


So yeah, I can't say I'm really happy about this new senbatsu, but it could have been a lot worse.

On a scale from 1-10 I'd probably rate it a 6-

Kinda depressing, not enough Hori, etc... but at least the song is starting to grow on me.

I also realized that Ikuta's is probably the only voice I can recognize while listening to Nogi's songs.

Kizuitara Kataomoi's 5th Round HS Result

If that graph is accurate, then that might explain Ikoma's transfer to AKB48...

If that graph is accurate, then that might explain Ikoma's transfer to AKB48... 

No idea what that graph is (I'm guessing it's saying Ikoma sold out none of her handshake slots?) - but as far as I know, Ikoma's always been a fairly unpopular centre, which is why it made sense when they gave Maiyan centre position in that one single, as she's one of the most popular, but then they started rotating it, like AKB is doing at the moment.

8th Single 「Kizuitara Kataomoi」 Tracklist Revealed

The tracklist for Nogizaka46's 8th single 「Kizuitara Kataomoi」 has been revealed. The b-side on all types, Romance no Start, is been used as the new theme song for House Foods' Megashaki CM since January of this year, with its MV being placed on type A. Umareta Mama de is the under members song on type C, featuring for the first time a jacket cover without the senbatsu members. One of the coupling songs has in its name a German word, which Ikuta Erika (who was born and lived in Germany during her first 5 years) had said on her blog that it could be inspired by a conversation she had with the producer and lyricist Akimoto Yasushi; Dankeschön on the CD Only version means "thank you" in German.

The MVs for Kizuitara Kataomoi and Umareta Mama de and the DVD bonus contents have already been released, as well as the audio for Toiki no Method and Romance no Start. The line-ups for each song other than the senbatsu and unders members ones will be revealed at a later time. The single is scheduled to be released on April 2nd, 2014.
