I need to rant for a bit.
Today was a recording day divided into two parts, and I got picked for the second one. The original mail had us gathering at 18:30 which implies a pretty long recording. Got a mail a few hours later telling us to gather at 16:45 instead. This still implies a longer recording, but with both parts having an even amount of episodes. It turns out the first part started at around 15:30... do the math and you might fit two episodes into that interval --- truth is they got to see
one episode.
Usually they split the recordings into 14:00~ and 18:00~, but I guess due to circumstances (i.e Tokyo Motor Show for today, 12/9) they had to delay for a bit. The second part that I was in was scheduled to be
loooong according to the staff. They let us into the studio smoother than usual as we were literally entering the same time as the girls, and that enough is a sign telling they've messed up somewhere. Still, they took their time with the two first recordings and we were told to step out for a while so they could prepare for the 1h SP that was coming up next.
Apparently there seemed to be a lot to prepare for as they told us in advance that we were going to be waiting for a while but that it most likely would turn into a fun recording. Seriously, I've been to a lot of recordings but that's the first time they've said something like that. There was another time when they had us waiting for approximately 30+ minutes, and that turned out to be the now legendary volleyball episodes. This time about 40 minutes passed, and 100 fans with high hopes got a slap in the face after being told they're not needed. Well, actually it was
"I'm terribly sorry but they've decided to do it without an audience so you'll have to go home now" but where's the difference, really.
Worst part is we got to hear it from a third party. Not cool. End of rant. My face:
Best part of today wasn't even caught on camera, which was Umeko giving Masuno a massage.
