  1. Of course the two most extra "audience" would be Murashige and Chiyori. Lol
  2. Ngt48 started while I wasn't paying much attention to the 48g because so many of my favs had graduated. During last SSK I read a lot of comments about "rich farmer money" and comments about handshake lines for some of the higher ranking members not be staggeringly long. The impression I get is some of the higher SSK ranks are due to just a couple fans(or in some girls cases possibly 1) spending huge on the girl. So AKS protecting those big spenders. It would not surprise me if many of those with illegal fan contact are fans who spend big.
  3. Qualifications for Watanabe Miyuki Girls Unit Audition - Woman - Age limit 30 years old - Agency and affiliation won't be asked - Willing to focus and work full-time as the girls unit for the period of 2 years - Love singing and dancing Q. Why did you decide to form a Girls Unit? Milky: "With the experience I have, I would like to do something new and fun. I want to aim to become a pop unit that gives energy to everyone. Cute girls, cool girls, etc I hope to see many kinds of character in this unit!" 2 year period. It sounds like she really wants to have a real group again. Wouod be nice to get some former 48g members. Whatever happened to Erena Ono?
  4. Why do I actually think it's more recording WHAT THE GIRLS say to make sure none of them go 'out of line' and say things that shouldn't be said and not actually the other way around.
  5. Out of all the members who have gotten a chance to be active on AKBingo the past year Hama is def my favorite. Altho it seems now being in the backrow she is Chiyori type role.
  6. If liquid money issues are true, maybe that's why SKE48 was sold.
  7. With how big a push Oguri Yui has gotten I wouldn't be shocked if she is kami 7 this election.
  8. Sounds like she took over for Aoi. Aoi was always crying a ton on variety shows the first few years of the group.
  9. later this week Sasshi, Mayuyu, and Yukirin are going to do a live stream together. They always are so damn funny when together with classics like Sasshi asking them what color panties they are wearing or googling fake nudes of each other(and Sasshi getting mocked because the fake nudes boobs were too big)
  10. The new company paid like almost $27m US$ for SKE so they can prob afford it. Most likely a theater/auditorium would be part of this new training center.
  11. JK Rowling could have milked Harry Potter a shit-ton.
  12. Let's also not forget that while Mako is prob Juri's best friend in AKB, she is very close to Muto Tomu. They are both 12th gen members and Juri, Mako, Tomu did their PD48 audition as a trio and also were a team for the Janken tourny. If Juri looks at Tomu who has finally gotten to Kami 7. What does it really mean? Has Tomu gotten many more activities by getting to Kami7? Nope. It doesn't matter how many fans support you anymore like when Juri joined AKB48. It has become just whoever management likes, whoever sucks up and socializes with management the best, or whoever has better outside connections(see NGT48 attackers) gets the push. Hard work doesn't really matter anymore. Showing good performances and building individual fandoms doesn't matter much anymore. Juri has a chance for something bigger and grats on her.
  13. Rino had to die to leave... Lol
  14. Not saying the Riripon stuff is false, but wasn't she quitting because of getting married?
  15. Netflix apparently wants it on the darker/sexier side and if you watched Altered Carbon it has a ton of nudity and violence. Bodies are somewhat disposable so it can be graphic at times. I still think it would have made more sense to actually pick an anime that is darker already if you wanted to do it like say Berserk, Goblin Slayer, Claymore, etc... for fantasy genre type stuff. The character models are obviously not going to be as youthful looking as the game when played by adult actors. I think Shiori Kutsuna would be a good choice for a lead character. She grew up in Australia and speaks English and has already started getting involved in Hollywood stuff being in Deadpool 2 as Yukio and 2 other Netflix movies The Outsider & Murder Mystery. BTW, reading her answers something bugs me when she says it is a Japanese property and names the two Japanese characters and then says they will be played by "Asian" actors. If they're Japanese then have them played by Japanese. It brings up that whole Memoirs of a Geisha with Zhang Ziyi, Michelle Yeoh and Gong Li all playing Japanese characters. There's a big difference between having a Brit play an American and having a Chinese actor play a Japanese character imo.
  16. ^Saw another tweet saying it will be a total of 24 members made up of those 4 groups. Not sure if that means they will perform together on stage or record a song together as 24 and the stage perf may not be the same.
  17. Can't really cry about whitewashing here right? Only Mikasa is the only Asian character. Pretty much everyone else seems European with heavily germanic. Now if they mess with Mikasa then gloves off.
  18. Whats up with the head of the military doing some freaky human centipede type stuff?
  19. AKB48's contract could be an issue. Most members have language in the contract that usually bans them from releasing music(sometimes also tv appearances) for a certain amount of time.
