Link removed. Scans were made by Shumatsu Samurai and I didn't mean to take credit for his work. Sorry.

^
Downloaded it. Checked it. Letting you know...
I wanted to keep it in the S48 depot only but, as I wrote there already, I'm aware that I cannot control what people do with it.
And while I'm fine with it being here now, this being a site I like a lot, I'd still prefer not to have it here, out in the open, where all the leechers and people who PM you asking for help (=they ask to download stuff from places they cannot access because they lack the number of posts required and re-up it for them) can easily get it.

^Ah it is your scan? I removed the link immediately. Please accept my apology. I get my stuff from various sites and from various people so I couldn't check the origin of this pb.

No problem.
As I said, now that it's out, I don't mind it being here. But because of what I wrote above, I'd prefer to put it in the Asshole. The requirement is still 175 posts, right?
If you still have the link, you can post it there. If not, I'll do it later.

Anyone got MaiMai's DVD yet? I got mine in the mail yesterday and watched most if it. It's a pretty good IV. My favorite bit was her playing darts in a bikini. It was... fun to watch.

She's so silly. One park irked me though where there were two whole scenes played in split screen while she was talking. Talk is fine, but I like bikini time to be full screen. Oh well, still plenty of good shots. I may up it to a tracker sometime of no one beats me to it.

I just watched it!! She's super sweet with an perfect 10 body!

First impressions on the DVD:

1. Haaaaaaaaaaawt
2. I wished for more butt & titties shots! They definitely deserve more screen time!
3. In some scenes she looked significantly different than usual, in a good way of course!
4. Someone told her not to show her teeth (too much)! XXD - Well, I like the thingy she does with her lips though.

5. I hoped for more something a bit more creative, moody or fantasy inspiring ... I'm still fascinated by Yuko's heavenly DVD so I'm a bit biased here. I think Mai's DVD is the standard Image DVD for starters. Not too explicit or daring with focus on some mild seductive poses and more on personality. Nice DVD!
6. I want this in HD!

MaiMai in bluray would be awesome.

I really liked the DVD. It did a good job of showcasing MaiMai's outer and inner beauty. She's got some supreme T&A but that's only the cherry on the cake of how awesome she is.

LOL. Cherry.

SomethingWild · « **Reply #8 on:** February 19, 2009, 10:27:40 PM »

I liked it as well.

Hoped for more originality too, but I didn't really expect it. Very nice dvd and I'll definitely watch it again (and again).

yup you what is coming so that smile becomes like a smurk-warning

And that dog just knows what to do! In one scene it just flops over backwards to her thighs and stays there looking up, how much we would like to be able to do that

NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Lol, Saw this one coming from miles away. I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner.

I love Maimai, but this is great for her. And we all know she wont just disappear. She's got a pretty good career going outside of AKB.

Datalanche · « **Reply #13 on:** February 21, 2009, 06:48:34 PM »

Gotta admit it does suck. She's a great performer. Aside from being hot, she has an epic singing voice, dances well, and has a fun personality. She wouldn't be my Team A favorite for any other reasons.

At the same time, I'm not too sad. MaiMai is going to be just fine. She's already proven she can make it on the TV and idol circuit. April will in no way be the last time we see her around. Aside from that, it was obviously coming. She's barely been at the AKB theater in recent months, from what I've read. Whether she doesn't want to do it or she's just tied up with other things constantly, we'll never know, but in the end, it's her choice and I respect her for it. She has things she wants to do and if AKB48 isn't one of them, then that's fine with me. I don't like her any less because she chooses to move on. Good luck MaiMai. Keep popping out those DVD's and photobooks. I'll buy whatever I can!

It's more of a surprise she actually stayed that long. I was convinced she'd be leaving after A4R.
For her, this will be a step forward and I'm really happy for her.
I'm also thankful because, in a way, her busy schedule, making it very difficult to see her, eventually made me switch to Asuka. Thanks to her, Maimai leaving didn't hit me as hard as it would've a year ago.

shadowstar · « **Reply #15 on:** February 23, 2009, 07:33:44 PM »

Considering how many magazine appearances she constantly has, and the amount is crazy, she'll be just fine after her graduation. Heck, she'll most likely do even better than still being a part of the group.

Mai Oshima to leave AKB48

Sat, February 21, 2009 (12:58pm EST)

During an AKB48 concert on Saturday, it was announced that Team A member Mai Oshima (also known by the nickname Maimai) will be leaving the group. Her final Akihabara performance will be on March 27, followed by her last concerts as an AKB48 member on April 25-26 at NHK Hall.

According to an entry on her blog, Oshima said that she has long wanted to become a talento in variety shows and television dramas. She has recently been making lots of TV appearances on her own, and she felt that graduating from AKB48 would be the best course to achieving her goals.

I hope she gets some really great tv appearances!

So far, the few shows I've seen her on she didn't get to do very much.

Here's hoping she maybe even gets her own show or a good spot as a regular.

I'll miss her from akb.

I saw the LoD of her last show. I really don't buy into this graduation stuff, but I'm sad to see her go. Lots of talent, hotter than hell, and an equally as hot voice. I hope we continue to see more of her in photobook, DVD, and hopefully even singing form. Good luck MaiMai. I'll be buying your products like a deranged wota always!
