*Bumps the thread* Gonna make an obligatory post-preliminary results commentary for HKT48. I'm elated to see Rabutan at 41. This probably means that her transfer was a success, I'm glad since I had always though she was getting increasingly shafted in AKB since her presumably shallow wota oshihened for losing her lolita image. It's nice to see she can hold her own in HKT and getting the respect she derserves (since she a 3rd gen) I'm debating whether Rabutan should be my HKT oshi atm. Mio and Meru; I'm kinda ehh about Meru since I've yet to be impressed by her from Hakata Hykatten and LoDs. imo seeing her popularity just mainly coming from her huge push. Funny how management push often correlates highly with popularity. I'm banking on Mio to edge out in this race, since pretty much everything else is in her favor (HS, Mixi, G+) /biased. Sakura & Haruppi: I like them both, so I'm indifferent as to whether who ranks higher, preferably both of them ranking higher than Meru. So management can push Meru back *gets bricked* Morippo: I like her aesthetically and happy that her fans can get her on the list. That's it I guess, I don't have much of an opinion about her yet And no comment about sasshi As for the other unranked girls: I kinda expected Aoi or Anya to rank too, especially Anya since she's one of my favorites. Also hoping for Chori and Marika and Natsumikun to rank but that's wishful thinking on my part. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Have a Marika gif.

Hello everyone, a newbie here Just wanted to say that I just received my Sayonara Crawl CD's today (I think it took 3 days to arrive using Airmail, since I live in Australia and my package probably avoided customs luckily). I ordered regular K and regular B. I'll post the contents of my gets after I get back from uni Also, very nervous for the prelim rankings, hoping for my oshi Amina to rank in the top 20 (realistically speaking) and Umechan to maintain senbatsu. The latter probably won't happen though .

Hi, been watching Eurovision since 1998, so long time fan I'm just gonna make my predictions before I head to bed (Being an Australian sucks cause I can't see this live due to time zone differences and I have uni tomorrow) What I think will go through (bold) 01 Latvia: PeR - Here We Go 02 San Marino: Valentina Monetta - Crisalide (Volá) 03 Macedonia: Esma & Lozano - Pred da se razdeni 04 Azerbaijan: Farid Mammadov - Hold Me 05 Finland: Krista Siegfrids - Marry Me 06 Malta: Gianluca - Tomorrow 07 Bulgaria: Elitsa and Stoyan - Samo shampioni 08 Iceland: Eyþór Ingi - Ég á lif 09 Greece: Koza Mostra & Agathon Iakovidis - Alcohol Is Free 10 Israel: Moran Mazor - Rak bishvilo 11 Armenia: Dorians - Lonely Planet 12 Hungary: ByeAlex - Kedvesem (Zoohacker Remix) 13 Norway: Margaret Berger - I Feed You My Love 14 Albania: Adrian & Bledar - Identitet 15 Georgia: Nodi & Sophie - Waterfall 16 Switzerland: Takasa - You and Me 17 Romania: Cezar - It's My Life Personally rooting for San Marino and Norway. As for the rest, just a prediction purely based on accessibility/appeal. I picked Hungary as 10th which could easily been replaced with any other country except that hot mess that is FYR Macedonia, they should've stuck with Imperija (their original song choice) which could've made it.
