    God bless this thread :cute:
    Really, I am always speechless when it comes to Ikuchan, even more if it's IkuMai.
    I hope Ikuchan can go back to first row so they can be together in fukujin front again, next year please...

    There are pretty much evidences that IkuMai pair isnt "just business" kind relationship. They are look adorable together.

    The legend IkuMai gif. They even got invitation from certain magazine that time.

    Maiyan is prob the only member who openly calls her Erika. And Ikuchan equally loves Maiyan because Maiyan knows Ikuchan's priorities the best, which is food. :lol:

    I was about to say that from the IkuMai pictures/videos I've seen, I think their expressions look genuine. But remembering their talents in acting, I don't know anymore. [hehe]

    Anyway, I hope they are really close off screen. Their affection to each other is giving me a warm feeling.

    Finally found it! Probably one of my favorite Ikumai gifs. From that Nogibingo season where Ikuchan didn't appear until it was almost midway done. :lol:

    Ikuchan could barely keep her eyes open from obvious exhaustion and Maiyan was so gentle. :cute:

    This gif really made my day! The look on Maiyan's face is so sweet. I doubt (in this case at least) she was doing it for the benefit of the camera.

    I know Maiyan is stunningly beautiful. But seeing her like this increases her beauty by a thousand fold in my eyes.

    wow I didn't know there are so many IkuMai shippers here, haha. Ikuchan and Maiyan have always been my two favorites and my oshimens in Nogi, I've been shipping IkuMai for so long too, I always love their moment. You can tell that Maiyan likes Ikuchan. I also remember some things like in interviews, Maiyan has mentioned Ikuchan, if I remember well when she was asked who could be model for a magazine (a regular model) and she mentioned Ikuchan. Maiyan always supported Ikuchan! Ikuchan also really likes Maiyan, I think their friendship is real. it's not like they're each other's best friends, but they obviously appreciate each other a lot and I love that. the gifs posted here are so cute <3 These two are really the best! Beautiful, smart, funny, cute, talented, they have everything!

    I'm not expecting anything for her in regard of senbatsu selection. Though if I see her drop to 3rd row like the way they drop Manatsu (Manatsu is top 5! Lord!) will super hurt.

    But then it will be interesting if she centering 20th single.

    Another meme and LOL after the shinigami gag.

    Exactly! Management is getting crazier day by day. But in 19th Manatsu, Kazumin, and Minami are not in both Asahinagu, so there's a valid reason, even though it feels unfair. Hope Ikuchan won't get that treatment again, as she already experienced the drop in 2nd single.
    Her HS slot in 19th is back to full, I hope this is a good sign for next single as well.

    Agree. The girl who play Iku close to the real one. Her name is Yamauchi Serina.

    Ppl usually call Iku herself looklike Horikita Maki, Higa Minami, or even Arimura Kasumi. Now we found a girl who a bit looklike her.

    ....

    Iku's vid from Men's Non-no

    She already back to her LeMis world. Today is her first perf in Osaka tour. She will there until 15th Sept. Then she will fly back to Tokyo and scheduled to appear in TV on 17th, 19th, 20th. Packed.

    She's cute. In some shots she really looks like Ikuchan. Kinda freaky, lol. Although in some, I thought I was looking at a Mukaida Manatsu look-a-like. Must be the hair. :^^;:

    Also, can't wait to see what her TV guesting with Nanase is going to be like, lol. They've never appeared together before with just the 2 of them, so I'm really curious lol.

    It's the last leg of her LeMis musical. Hopefully we get to have her for a while before Mozart starts next year.

    My bad. LeMis Osaka tour run until 15 sept. And they still have one more in Nagoya from 25th Sept-16th Oct.

    She has time to focus as an idol from late october until early December. Mozart probably will hold it's first presscon at late November. And she back to college next spring.

    Edit:

    She is the #2 for TOP 10 young musical actress ranking (U-25)

    That 'making of' did not get us to be the biggest mystery: Iku-chan's hair extensions. I want to know how they put them on. She looks strange with long hair. Or rather, styling her hair that way does not make her Ikuta.
