I just went to kenkyuusei show yesterday, and although there were many people shouting her name and supporting her, I think Kaori got at least as much support if not more (I can say from personal experience, Kaori's handshake treatment is basically kami taiyou, so I think this is how she became so popular). They're both my faves in the 16th gen so I really hope they both do well and they were both promoted to Team 4 so I think they could act as next gen rivals within the team. Although the management might push Zukkii more because she's younger.
just watch kks stage for the first time, and she kinda got me there with her performance, and those abs just wow.. i think yuiri got some rival now.
Zukki is an absolute star and definitely ace material. Ticks all the boxes; -Attractive + young = marketable -Terrific performer, great dancer! -Lovely personality -Active on social media -Best HS seller of her generation (Her 51st single HS sales are up there with some of the most popular girls across all groups) -All of her official merch is always sold out Being the tall, strong dancer type that she is with an upbeat personality and amazing abs, I'm surprised she wasn't promoted to Team K. Being promoted to Team 4 will really give Zukki the chance to shine though, as she can offer so much to Team 4 that Team K already has but Team 4 lacks, thus making her stand out. I wouldn't be surprised if management push Zukki soon. She would definitely deserve it!
It would be super cool if we got to see Zukki or another 16th Gen member in the senbatsu for the 52nd single ((please management I’m desperate...))
Zukki will perform with Team K tonight at Nana's birthday stage For you 16th gen fans, Kana and Manaka will also be performing. I've been so lazy with stages lately, but I will definitely tune in! Zukki's recent 7gogo photos ♡ (Mod note: deleted dead photo links)
She really deserves it. I feel Zukki and Zunchan are destined for great things, management just need to give them the chance to shine. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if either of them rank this year.
The only thing she need right now is mc skill, seriously she is even worse than paruru in her kks day
And HS skill too. Yeah, I know her sales are good, I'm guessing because she's cute and talented (I can't argue with that, and she is one of my top 3 in 16th gen after all). But compared to other 16th gens her handshake treatment doesn't really stand out. I'm saying this from personal experience, it could be different for other people (like there's a small chance she might just be nervous because I'm a foreigner or something).
Yeah, I've been lazy downloading stages too but I definitely want to see this! nah, I don't think she's as bad as Paruru in the kks/team 4 days, Paruru was downright sullen half the time and plain didn't want to talk, Zukki just kind of blurts and stutters her words out, probably just nervous with talking but that will come with time.
I don't think she is as bad as Paruru haha, Zukki is still energetic and happy, but as @Reveen said, she just blurts out stuff and stutters maybe from nervousness, which to me is actually totally adorable
Zukkii performed in a new unit in today's "Michiteiru" stage - she was in Kegareteiru Shinjitsu! It was nice to see her in a darker unit for a change. Nishikawa Rei took her place in Wimbledon. Zukkii's upcoming schedule: Thursday 18/03/15: KKS stage Friday 18/03/16: KKS stage Saturday 18/03/17: national HS event @ Port Messe Nagoya
Found this: (deleted dead video link) Yuirii starts imitating Zukkii, and Naachan next to her keeps giggling saying "ahh, how cute". Yuirii thinks the cutest part of Zukkii's MCs is the part where Zukkii introduces the last song (Iede no yoru) from the current KKS stage and says the song title in her distinctive manner.
Congrats on becoming the first 16th Generation Member to make Senbatsu I guess this means she is the 16th Gen Ace Officially.
