Absolute Favorite AKB48 Song [ONE ONLY]: Kimi no Koto ga Suki Dakara
When/how did you become an AKB48 fan: Recently, thanks to the fall of Momusu. I still love Momusu but AKB48, as it has been said, has much more personality and honesty, the girls are all cute and very talented. The promotion of the individual girls is also very well handled. I was sold completely when I noticed Yukirin, the first AKB girl to catch my attention and have since started liking lots of the other girls as well

Favorite Graduated AKB48 Member: (still) don't know
Favorite AKB48 Group/Subgroup: Watarirouka Hashiritai
Absolute Favorite AKB48 Song [ONE ONLY]: Keibetsu Shiteita Aijou
When/how did you become an AKB48 fan: I blame thank maliciel and ronin. I had a gigantic idol group-shaped void in my life for several years, after losing interest in H!P. I had loved 'Keibetsu' when it first came out, but largely ignored AKB stuff until 2010, right around the time they released Ponytail.
Reason why you like AKB48: Mendol Because Yuko can shove her face in someone else's boobs, and that's perfectly ok.

Absolute Favorite AKB48 Song [ONE ONLY]: Sakura no Hanabiratachi 2008
When/how did you become an AKB48 fan: During the 2nd Poswhore Olympics. I believe it was Masa's fault for getting me into AKB48, although I was slowly liking them through TomoTomo from Kamen Rider W and watching the Heavy Rotation PV.  Oh and there was also the massive pic spam of Acchan, Mariko, Tomo, Rina, etc on the Postwhore Thread that same weekend. 
Reason why you like AKB48: It's a fresh change after watching Morning Musume for 2 years and SNSD for 1 year. And I'll admit they're not that bad on TV and in concerts. Their songs are catchy as well. .....And it's because of the Heavy Rotation PV.

Reason why you like AKB48: I used to be a big fan of H!P, and while I'm still a fan, most of my favorites have graduated by now. So I kind of stopped following H!P as a whole and just focused on the girls I still like. That's why I started looking into AKB48, but what kept me liking AKB48 was the great variation of idols. There's really one for every taste.
