well, of course I'm a "no-one" but I would like to share some impressions.
direct to the point, the concert sucked. hardly. maybe when you see it in a dvd it turns out ok, but being there and facing 1-that hotness 2-the huge lanes 3-sitting twenty kilometers from the stage, where I could barely identify the members (though I could identify that during "Tengoku Yarou" a girl dressed like soldier was holding an H&K MP5A5. I think this shows how much of a fan I am nowadays LOL) 4-since the stadium is freaking huge and the wind was very strong sometimes, the sound was terrible. looked like it was coming from inside a box and looping 5-terrible seats are terrible. I think my ass will be hurting for a week.
on top of that, get a below average setlist and girls that can't dance at all (kenkyuseis? have no idea who they were. and why the hell give microphones to all those girls dancing around the pathway? we all know they aren't singing and are there just to do some extras anyways). having seen so many big concerts (AKB ones included) it's difficult to be impressed by something now. all looks just like a deja vu... when I heard "Pajama Drive" with a girl named Meru (who the fuck is this girl? kenkyusei? oh please, show some mercy on me) I started really to ask myself "what the hell I'm doing here?".
but at end of the concert the graduated girls appeared to sing "Skirt, Hirari" as a surprise. Meetan, Nonchi, Nacchan, Kohara and Cindy. ok, the concert wasn't a waste of life after all.
and so came the sousenkyo, right after. couldn't even check my emails LOL. as an overview, it's funny in the beginning, starts to get repetitive in the middle and is the most boring thing ever in the ending, during the senbatsu (Yuko' speech apart). simply because the girls talk about ten minutes all those blablabla we always hear and then comes that annoying announcer to inquire the girl exactly about the same shit she already told and forcing to see if they cry. (when they don't naturally) Paruru's blankness during her speech is IMO the proof how she is not prepared to be what Akimoto wants. she simply is not ready to it (maybe never will). her poker face soon became a joke with the audience laughing everytime a girl was there overreacting and then the camera switched to Paruru and she was there
but I liked the event. why? because I just had the most incredible experience I ever managed to get with this group (handshaking events apart). it was the starting of the sousenkyo, where they call all the girls one by one. there was a rule (disrespected by some morons, of course. aka ME) to not shout disturbing people around. but when Nacchan was called, it was a no-brainer to me. she was one the girls I like more back in the days, I helped some guys to make a huge letter to her when she
was kicked graduated, already saw two of her theatrical plays after AKB... I shouted like a real desperate wota and some people around me gave me a stare. ok. here I have to admit I didn't place a single vote in her, put them in my beloved Abiru and Nonaka. but since they never ranked and would most likely not rank once again, I decided to play the "Nacchan wota" role, staying quiet during other announcements and so.
the 62nd spot came and... it was her. I wished she would rank higher, but hey. it's a historic deed anyways. first and only non-member girl to rank. as soon as I stood up, all the people around turned to me. a fucking whole block of the stands all looking at me instead of the stage. I started to shout again, going even with "Nacchan aishiteru yo!!!" and so the people start applauding. ME. some guys laughed, others were just staring in admiration, the guys in front row went "hey hey look at the smile in his face", two guys even left their seats and came to congratulate me.
it was like she only ranked
because of me. that moment I felt what is it to be THE wota. (even though it was a lie but hey, no one needs to know, right?) and I'll have to admit to you: it felt good.
