Official HKT48 Thread

*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.
