    Why is Yokochan out of Bingo? Its' like the only thing she has is her Showtime which every girl gets anyway. She didn't do anything wrong and she is not boring. What gives?

    Then who is M... No, not going to say it.

    You have to understand that Team 8 is a bit special. These girls schedules are so so different from the rest of the AKB girls. Yokochan lives in Aomori, she has her own things there (studies, TV shows, etc.). For a Team 8 girl that doesn't live near Tokyo to be in AKBINGO! means that she's in Tokyo doing other things (that's why you saw Nagi on those fashion episodes after Tsucchan's date).

    I understand that, but she was on TV before so they must have pulled her down to Tokyo and crammed a lot of stuff while she was there. They should keep doing this.

    Reasons....like management is pushing other team8 girls so have no time for Yokochan anymore?


    Poor Yui, another victim of the push game.

    I was actually telling what made me post that photo.

    Don't worry about Yoko, her time will come.

    I hope so but can't see how. She already demonstrated her dance skills and as much as that had big ripples in the Japanese TV viewers, management never fallowed up on that. I can't see how aimlessly throwing Yokochan on AKBingo three months from now is going to do her any good.
    The focus is all on YuiYui and Nagi right now.

    It's only YuiYui, isn't Nagi, or even Naru.

    It's not only Yuiyui; Nagi and Naru are being promoted too. Right now, they're rehearsing for their own solo concerts. Solo concerts!

    But Yuiyui is still under the same period of push that Yamada had, therefore you have this idea that it's all about her. The difference is that it's working better for her... and why shouldn't they be milking the cow, right?

    But in what concerns Team 8 what they're doing with Donald's nephews isn't what you'd call a push, it's just prioritizing their biggest assets. Making Yuiyui a senbatsu member is a push, making her the face of Team 8... not so much. The same way that making Hana-chan the center for an HKT single is giving her a push, but doing the same for Paruru in AKB is just normal business. Rinchan being selected for Nyan's kouen is a bit of a push; Naru as the center of WEST and Yuiyui and Nagi double center of EAST is what anyone would expect.
