I've never even heard of Kamata Natsuki yet she got more votes than Dasu

[Suumero]

But Sumire expression and reaction during the shuffle have left a negative impression of her..

 

I'm gonna come off as a defensive OSHI-IS-THE-BEST fan omg

 

I think she's just really attached to Team A-- her Karen and Ayarin were there, and she got along reaaaaally well with the KSGK kids. She found a role as a senpai and she got super comfortable with her position and relationships with the other members in A that it's just a total shock to her that she's being transferred to not only a different team, but a different group altogether, where she really didn't know anyone or how she'll fit in.

 

I think Suu redeemed herself though; if you check out her SNS after the shuffle, she's trying her hardest to really blend in with SKE. Like, a few days after the shuffle, she commented on SKE's performance and asked her fans which SKE song is their favorite; she talked to Yuria about the differences in each group; her G+ right now is filled with lots of girls from E; and she even got along with Jurina well enough to go on a date with her. She missed an E show for the first time a few weeks back and she made a G+ post about it with sad emoticons and all, so I think it really shows that she's trying her best to give it her all in SKE. 

 

Not a lot of people follow her to that extent and Suu's not really the explosive NOTICE ME type, so her effort might go unnoticed, but she really is trying her best~ She might not scream SKE rn but at least she's not half-assing it or anything lol

Interesting, surprised she didn't follow Karen's decision to stay in AKB. From her appearance she looks like she has a rather cool character, by that I mean cold appearance. Well she is doing better I suppose...with that Ambulance PV. 

 

Queen Rena getting all the love...Mizuho tho....Compared to the new centres votes.

She's a 6th gen.. must have some really dedicated fans. I would have expected Kumachan there.

Okay here's my 2 cents... I'm sure Suuchan tries really hard and she's a great idol. But when it comes to my feelings as an SKE hako oshi, there's a difference between "okay she's a good performer for SKE" to "okay she deserves taking a senbatsu spot away from my promising new gen". I mean it took me a year to accept Minarun so... it can't really be helped that I'll keep whining about the other new girls as well. It doesn't mean that I think Suuchan personally doesn't deserve things or is a bad idol.

 

I mean Tsuu wrote a blog post about not having any lines in the new single.. Harutamu as well, about being back row... My 5th gens deserve better.

I never said that she deserves a spot in senbatsu lol (as a Team K oshi I understand completely the feeling of sister group members taking away spots from promising new gen), just that she's trying her best and that she really doesn't mind being in SKE (she even enjoys it, imo). I don't want people to think she doesn't want to be there just because her initial reaction in the shuffle suggests otherwise.

 

I completely agree with you, though; I mean, some of my favorite girls are the newer gens (Miyamae, Rion) and they deserve more. I'm completely okay if Suu's not in senbatsu-- she knows her place too, she mentioned that on her G+ once (something like "I look around Team E and the younger members and I understand what my role is")

Alright, I see your point. Reinyan had a really sad reaction at shuffle too but she loves NMB now.

Question, how is the voting done? 

 

These positioning will change, but I think management should take heed of these fan votes....And work on a direction for SKE's sake..I don't want no more mass graduations, its hard to keep liking SKE when you begin to like someone they grad, and its usually because of poor opportunities.

 

I don't ever want Rena to graduate, she is the Kojiharu to SKE. But out of all the girls in SKE, she probs thrive the most when she does.

I think it's mobile votes once a day.

 

SKE really sucks at getting jobs for non-senbatsu girls. If they let them audition for things on their own, this would be less of a problem. AKS needs to stop being control freaks over their activities if they simply can't get them jobs.

 

Yukari sounds a lot more confident in her singing now, so proud of her. Never would have expected her to get #1 on RH, especially since the shuffle mess when she started getting really shafted. Wotas have good choices

OH MY GOD THIS SONG IS SO GOOD

 

and yes yes I think those are solo Ayachan lines??? These might be her first solo lines in a non-stage song

[JSJ89]

if those are really her solo lines then i now feel much better about her not being in senbatsu, her first solo lines in an original song (one that she actually records the original, not a stage song which doesn't really belong to her cuz we all know ori E never got an ori stage)

[polar_star]

I'm so happy that she got to center such a beautiful song... I really hope it becomes a fan favorite

 

And yeah she has like 4 solo lines until the "kodoku na" part I'm still in shock & disbelief
