A lot of information updates here! All info are from the Nelke Planning website. First of, it seems like there will be a change in the voting system!

Whereas previouslly, the top-voted 16 members will be assiged roles in based on their rank, this time the audiences will have to decided on ONE member for each role! There are a total of sixteen roles, & for each, the audience will have to decide on who they think are most befitting of it. & as for the specific of he roles, the site also have details on it. I have managed rough translation below.



[Nogizaka Theatre Group ~ The Garden in the Maze ~]
There exist a small island that can only be reached by small ships from the mainland (Japan).
On the island, resides a powerful family that achieved prosperity through fishery & tourism, the mysterious Nogi Family (野木家). However, the death of family head, Nogi Juichiro (野木 寿一郎), have caused a string of abnormal happenings & bickering between the family sisters. During this time, the detective-like Aketagawa (明田川 太郎) and young lads Sawamura (沢村 小坊主) enters the story. Presented here is a dazzling women's labyrinth!


Nogi Hisako - 野木緋咲子
The always seemingly troubled elder sister of the Nogi Family. Hisako wishes to appear determined, but gets tired easily, & is unable to lead her sisters. Hisako have visual disorder, & seems to suffer from anemia.

Nogi Husako - 野木芙咲子
The second eldest sister of the Nogi Family, whom appears to be uninterested in things.
Husako is a romantist, the most proactive toward love of the three sisters, a sexy bomb that's never rushed but always composed & confident. Her most adept cooking is baking fruit atop the heater. Her interest is in making hair accessories.

Nogi Misako - 野木美咲子
The always crazy youngest sister of the Nogi Family, with a body like a princess.
Of the sisters (each with different mothers), she is the most beloved by Juichiro. Misako speaks with a sharp tongue, but is actually kind. Misako is an innocent & lovable girl, who like all things related to fish.

Itsumi - いつみ
The daughter between Juichiro & Lover #1. Itsumi does not reside on the island of the Nogi Family, & is basically a urbanite. Itsumi is seemingly never satisfied with anything. She dress fancily but lamely. Itsumi does not drink yet carries the smell of an alcoholic. She also likes air tobacco.

Imawa Youko - 今和洋子
The daughter between Juichiro & Lover #23. Youko lives distantly from the Nogi Family, & do not desire intimacy with the Family. She is a girl of the summer, & aims to be a transparent woman.

Kitashima Ayame - 北島文目
The secretary of the Nogi Family with obvious ambition. Within the Nogi family, Ayame display obedience, but in front of the rigorous sisters, she always desire a life of splendor. Ayame likes anime & Arabia. Additionally, Ayame have a scheming personality despite her nice appearance. Nonetheless Ayame is well liked by the sisters, none of which hate her.

Sakae -
The reliable family servant of the Nogi Family, with a very dramatic attitude.
Due to her love of theatre drama, Sakae often sport Takarazuka-like makeup. Sakae aims to one day play Juliet of Romeo & Juliet in the Empire's Theatre.

Imawa Seichi - 今和誠ㄧ
The adopted son of the Imawa Family. His mother is Lover #23, & he is Youko's brother without any blood relation. Seichi is a young man with an naive appearance. He is very daring, kind-hearted, but overly hearty. Seichi have a interesting one-of-the-kind fashion sense.

Aketagawa Taro - 明田川太郎
A 色男 that carries with him an aura of a detective. (色男 can mean beautiful man or a man who like to hang around girls.) Aketagawa likes to posture, and to build good relationship with all.

Sawamura Kobouzu - 澤村小坊主
Good friend with Aketagawa despite a significant difference in age.
Like to call Aketagawa "sensei". Sawamura get along with people better than Aketagawa, & is someone not to be underestimated.

The Group of Six Maids - 女中六人組
Elite maids of the Nogi Family whom will risk their lives with the words "Excuse me." They will often use "go" as a code to exchange information & giggles secretly afterward. These maids are no commoners.

I hope I will not be posting 95% of the posts here like in the last Ngzk stage thread. :sweatdrop:


Anyways, major update here!

First off the voting system is going to be significantly different this time around! Instead of choosing from among the 27 participating members for each role, this time the members have to choose which role they want to audition for before hand, & showcase why they are most befitting for this role in the first act.

There are only 27 participating members, because:
  • Hoshino Minami will not be participating due to study.
  • Ichiki Rena will not be participating due to study.
  • Kashiwa Yukina will not be participating due to study.
  • Miyazawa Seira will not be participating due to injury.
  • Ando Mikumo have announced her graduation.

Regarding 2nd gen members, one will be announced per perf, & the one to be announce at the first perf tmr is announced to be born November 11th, 1999, which will make her the youngest member thus far (unless surpassed by another 2nd gen).
Here's a mysterious pic provided by Ngzk's official blog:



& for the convenience of those who don't know all the members here & are interested:
Akimoto Manatsu
Ikuta Erika
Ikoma Rina
Ito Nene
Ito Marika
Inoue Sayuri
Eto Misa
Kawago Hina
Kawamura Mahiro
Saito Asuka
Saito Chiharu
Saito Yuri
Sakurai Reika
Shiraishi Mai
Takayama Kazumi
Nakamoto Himeka
Nakada Kana
Nagashima Seira
Nishino Nanase
Nojou Ami
Hashimoto Nanami
Hatanaka Seira
Fukagawa Mai
Matsumura Sayuri
Yamato Rina
Wakatsuki Yumi
Wada Maaya

^I much rather that I not break that record. :sweatdrop:
Altho judging on how things look you & me might be the only two postings. :catglare:
Which I think its a shame, cuz I'm personally rly excited about how the whole system will be working.
& there's so much happening: acting, singing, revelation of 2nd gen, voting, etc. oh well.

Anyways, there are news articles on Nogizaka's open rehearsal from Natalie, Oricon, & Sanspo!

You can find all the picture at the Nogizaka Picture Thread.

Also, character image of each roles have been released on the  Nelke Planning website!
From top to bottom, the characters are: Nogi Hisako, Nogi Husako, Nogi Misako, Itsumi, Imawa Youko, Kitashima Ayame, Sakae, Imawa Seichi, Aketagawa Taro, Sawamura Kobouzu, & the Six Elite Maids.

The first show has been performed, news articles:

http://www.nikkansports.com/entertainment/akb48/news/f-et-tp0-20130503-1121763.html
http://natalie.mu/music/news/90021

Can't see any pictures of today's show unfortunately, and they don't actually explain what's going on.

Couldn't find much on 2ch either, bar this post which has the best explanation: http://awabi.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/akb/1367337766/534

1700-1800   Act 1
1800-1820   Voting
1820-1825   Winners Announced
1825-1835   Break
1835-1920   Act 2

After Act 2 they introduce one 2nd generation member, one per performance, and then end the show with a mini-live, performing "Kimi no Na wa Kibou" and "Shakiism". There are some interwoven songs in the acts, as this is a musical, but I can't find any details as to what these songs are...

(btw, Rust, 62.5%)

So, the results are out! As previously mentioned, the members will chose a role to audition for beforehand, & the audience will decided who will play the role. Graphed here is a list with the elected one in bold. The six maids might be reserved for the six top-voted members that lost their roles, but not confirmed tho.

RoleAuditioners #1#2#3#4
HisakoEto MisaHashimoto NanamiHiguchi Hina

Maid #1Wakatsuki Yumi
Maid #2Sakurai Reika
Maid #3Fukagawa Mai
Maid #4Inoue Sayuri
Maid #5Nishino Nanase
Maid #6Hashimoto Nanami

Members who didn't made it: Higuchi, Yamato, Rottii, Manattan, Yuttan, Kanarin, Seitan, Maaya, Chiharu, Hinapyon, Nene, Ashurin.
Underlined are members who are dropped despite having above-average popularity. I guess this shows the volatility of the new voting system.

Upsets & notable results are:
Misamisa > Nanamin,
Bebitan > Manattan,
Seirarin > Kanarin
Ami > Myumyu/Yumichan,
Himetan > Naachan,
& Sayurin > Maimai was not a surprise but was certainly notable as Maimai does have top 5~7 popularity.

Here's a closer look at what the each members in their roles look like, in the above order from left to right. :lol:


& the first 2nd gen member have been revealed! This is Watanabe Miria, born November 1st, 1999 (13 y.o.), cuz each group need a Watanabe. :lol:
She was revealed on a special site for 2nd gen members, & will be the youngest member in Nogizaka, at least for now.



Also two new 2nd gen members will be revealed for the next perf! On the left here is someone born January 22nd, 1992, 21 y.o. (making her the oldest of all current members) & on the right is someone born July 17th, 1996, 16 y.o.

Surprises:
 - Three default winner for Hinachima (Hisako), Kazumin (Aketagawa), Sayunyan (Sawamura).
 - Nanamin, Ikoma dropping out completely.
 - Kanarin & Manattan not having made any role at all so far including maid.



Here's a nice chart summary on Google Doc, with thanks to Kyulmie from s48!
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AsWq8ZcBUIP1dG1SYl9VTFdyZ25qUWhYSWRPOW9PUUE&usp=sharing


Also, some additional info!
For the 1st perf, words are Maiyan, Sayurin & Kazumin were singing during the 2nd act! That means the role Youko, Husako & Seichi have singing component to it! Words also are that Amiami & Ikuchan's role have the most dialogue, that's Aketagawa & Sakae respectively. Lastly, fans are saying the role Youko felt most like the female lead, & that role was played by Maiyan for the 1st perf.


Some news from the 2nd day too. It seems like Nogizaka perform mini-lives after each of their stage perf, & words are Ashurin solo centered Shakiism in the mini-live after yesterday's 2nd perf because Ikoma ran away!

For yesterday's 2nd perf, Ikoma was not elected to any roles, including the maid roles. This is considered the reason for Ikoma's behaviour. Ashurin have subbed for Minami previously in Shakiism, & was doing so for this mini-live too. Ikoma's absence however resulted in Ashurin solo-centering the song. Fans, including Ikoma fans, have expressed disappointment to this lack of professionalism as a result.

This is not the first time that something similar happened. During the open rehearsal/press conference for the 1st stage, 16nin no Principal, Ikoma ran away when a reporter was asking her a question, causing quite a stir at that time. Words were she also cried during the 3rd-last perf for the 1st stage. Considering all these, I think its fair to say Ikoma need to work on her mental toughness.

Also, some fans who have attended the show have said that Manattan have failed to be elected to any role because she is very very weak in her acting, & this Achilles' heel basically have completely offset her popularity advantage.

Kanarin have also fail to receive any roles thus far despite being of above-average popularity. This I think is due to her auditioning for the Itsumi role all three times despite herself not being like Itsumi at all. Itsumi have also seen a lot of members competing for the roles too somehow, causing the members who lost out to not have enough votes to squeeze into the Maid roles even.


Also got a lot of 2nd gen info on the next post. :lol:

So like promised on the above post, here's some info on the 2nd gen! First, on Watanabe Miria:
Quote from: Noriega
So, after snooping around 2ch, I ran into this speculation:
(Comparing the DOB, given name, and face)It appears that Watanabe Miria's is a former child model under the name:

Sudo Miria(須藤みり愛)
Born in Tokyo
http://www.drillspin.com/person/view/ARDSAX008404
All the 1st gen member whom have stage name reverted to their original upon entering Nogizaka with the exception of Eto Misa (as she already have made a name for herself to a degree, hence was allowed to kept her stage name.) Considering this, Sudo was most likely a stage name, & Watanabe her original name.


& here are two more new 2nd gen members that have been introduced!
Below is Shinuchi Mai (新内眞衣), born January 22nd, 1992, 21 years old & oldest of the 2nd gen (2nd oldest in Nogizaka overall below Maimai.) Her official profile.


& a possible pic of when she was younger. She might have been a top 20 candidate for Miss Seventeen (magazine) during 2008, as this picture originated from that issue of Seventeen.



Here is Kitano Hinako (北野日奈子), born July 17th, 1996, 16 years old. Her official profile.




Not only that, there are information on possible 2nd gen members that are yet to be revealed yet even. :lol:
How did everything begin? It all started when someone from Nogizaka no Uta dug up the source code of the second gen page dug out, hence we now have a list of  likely the 2nd gen members, with the only thing lacking are the kanjis.

The code:
Code: [Select]

Words were she was let go due to taking  purikura pictures with fans, while others allege it was more serious. I don't know myself & reserve judgment. The official blog post on this incident is here, & this seems to be the alleged picture that led to the termination:


Kishikawa have a lot of pictures floating around somehow, prolly due to her higher profile.

^ The whole stage does look nice. A lot more like a West End Musical/Theatre performance that a concert or even the 48 groups theatres. No lightsticks/chanting from the crowd either. This is the first time I've heard any mention of songs being performed outside the mini-live at the end of the show so I'm glad.

Also, why is someone walking around carrying around a giant fish???
