Damn, that sucks. Ayaka Umeda's never on any AKB related shows but at least she gets to appear on variety shows from time to time.
True, but she (Umechan) is also part of a bigger group of girls that don't get what they deserve.
Not popular enough to be featured more but at the same time not unpopular enough to be completely hopless. Many of them probably work very hard for little reward. It's sad, but at the end of the day, AKB48 is still about business and not about equal chances. But with the recent trend of multiple group songs and PVs on the singles, the "middle class" are finally getting a bit more of everything.
Rant over.
I tried to think of memorable Mocchi moments but all I could think of was her Kobashi fangirling on AKBINGO. So yeah, she should definitely try to be more active whenever she gets some screentime. It would probably be easier for Mocchi to be in a smaller group because it's really hard to stand out in AKB.
It's sorta funny that she was on AKBINGO again just now. Maybe I should complain more often.
She did well on the game and she was cute during phrase museum.
Sorry, but these had to be quoted.
Yeah, I have noticed the same thing. Mocchi rarely sounds confident and natural when she speaks on TV shows. I actually disliked Akicha for the same reason but she has gained a lot of self-confidence during the past few months. Oh well, at least Mocchi's nowhere near as shy as Mika Komori 
But Komorin is much younger and it works for her. And Akicha was quite popular from the beginning. I think hers was the fastest ever promotion to a team. I'm pretty sure that that helped her a lot to gain more confidence. Girls like Asuka are somewhat trapped in a stupid spiral. Improving their skills and raising their confidence is difficult without the right work / exposure - which in turn is hard to get if people think you are shy...
Well fortunately she does look great and I'm sure that being on Team YJ will help her to gain more fans.
She does look great - but then, before you know it, she's grabbing arms again....
Watch it ASAP! Mocchi's performance was such a positive surprise that it made me more interested in her. By the way, she will be returning to Majisuka this week 
I watched the first four episodes now. It was nice to see her in a totally different role and I certainly was glad she didn't get beat up by SuperAcchan, but as expected, it also felt weird. Knowing she'll appear again, I'll continue to watch but, even though I had a general idea of what it would be like, I think it's a pretty craptastic show.
I think she could sign with Mousa like Nakaya & Nakata did. Also getting a public blog would probably help her a lot. Meetan's blog has actually helped me to get into Mocchi because Meetan often blogs about her. All AKB underdogs should have public blogs. Anyways it will be interesting to see if the team shuffle will help Mocchi's career...
Yeah, I wonder what the problem is. I mean, even if she's no front girl, she should be interesting enough for at least some of the smaller agencies...
The whole blog situation in general is pretty unsatisfying. I wish they'd take SKE as an example.
As for the team shuffle, it'll depend a lot on what kind of unit she'll get. Being "promoted" to A probably also means a lot in some people's minds but is irrelevant for the general audience.
