[TEAM B] MAYUYU ~ The Watanabe Mayu Thread

[Jul3]

First glimpse of TV news footage!

Mostly concentrates on her arrival at the airport with Saru-obasan. Mayu looks so radiant after just getting off a flight! 




Edit: Oh! And speaking of Mayuyu blowing fly-kisses, she was doing that on the 30th as well!

This is exactly what I meant before when I said she really knows how to please the crowd and make everyone there feel special and loved by her 

Bet, she's really happy how HK people welcomed her chanting her name~ she's really adorable, her presence is enough! she'll commit murder~ giving flying kisses

Posted yet more pics of Mayu's handshake event and her leaving HK in the picture thread: http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=28262.msg1229073#msg1229073

I'm just going to highlight something here, because I heard reports from @bilingual48 that there was trouble at the airport with the crowd and security etc...

Here's her at the check-in desk:

   

She seems to be looking at something and if you flick between the two pics you see her cover her mouth.

Edit: bilingual48 added this vid of the airport scene (not his):

Check them out there's one of someone is cosplay handshaking her - and one of someone in the same outfit as her handshaking her!
Plus - huge crowds. And some really cute ones and others of Mayu being great with kids.

edit, okay, I'll cross-post the cosplay handshaking ones here, but for the others check out the pic thread

Kan Wong shared videos ''from the community of Hong Kong'' (Mayu in Hong Kong)













Mayuyu 4th single had a tie in with an event at Tokyo Dome City attractions.  There was a quiz and now that the event is over, they have revealed the solutions/answers at http://at-raku.com/mayuyu/answer.html


I have never been to Hong Kong.  Now I have a reason to.  To check out Mayu's autograph at the AKB48 official shop in Hong Kong!

Found the following on baidu.  I think these are pics of Mayu going to a restaurant in Hong Kong on the night of Sept 30th and then the group photo taking?

What's so special?  Well such practices (or access to idols) are not allowed in Japan in general.

Here's an insight from Conche who is from Japan:

I actually envy those people taking picture with Mayu very much!!
In Japan, we are prohibited to wait for any AKB members going inside or coming out of a building, or to take pictures with them...or at the  events, we are not allowed to take vids nor pics unless the staffs plan a thing like the recent handshake event.

Exclusive goods from the AKB48 official Hong Kong shop:

This is actually my hidden agenda why I'm hoping for more International Travel for Mayu  GOD, you hit the bull's eye there
