    AKB48's Yamauchi Mizuki's "Lucky Zukkii!" at the rank-in concert

    "AKB48 Group Kanshasai ~Rank-in Concert~" was held at the Yokohama Arena on 2018/08/01.

    On the first day of these AKB48 Group Kanshasai concerts, those ranked from #100 to #17 during the AKB48 Sekai Senbatsu Sousenkyo gathered at the Yokohama Arena. Over 10 000 fans celebrated together with them, seated on the oshi seats.

    Her seats were filled with pink and yellow penlights
    This time, the only one from the 16th gen to appear in the rank-in concert was Yamauchi Mizuki.

    Early this spring, she was selected to the senbatsu of the SSK single for this year, "Teacher Teacher". During the SSK she received 15619 votes and ranked in at the 92th place - this was her first time ranking in.

    During a concert MC she did her catch phrase, "Lucky Zukkii", together with her fans.

    She addressed her fans, "All of you sitting in the Zukkii oshi seats! Lucky-", and the whole hall responded with "Zukkii!".

    Yamauchi Mizuki's oshi seats were filled with pink and yellow penlights. Her "Lucky Zukkii" call was returned by the whole audience, not just by those on her oshi seats.

    "Boku no uchiage hanabi" in a yukata
    During the units, she performed "Boku no uchiage hanabi" together with Komiyama, Okabe, Kubo and Oguri while wearing a yukata. The cute outfit accentuated her charming side.

    "I'd like to aim high with you"
    After the concert Yamauchi updated her Twitter with the following message, expressing her thanks:

    "Thank you for the kanshasai and the 92th place

    Even more people were seated on the Zukkii oshi seats than before, and it really surprised me!!

    Even from now on, I'd like to aim high with all my fans!"

    Selected to her first senbatsu for "Teacher Teacher"
    The 16th gen was presented to the audiences just during December 2016. These girls have been members of AKB48 for just a short time.

    However, during the 16th gen's stage "Let's go KKS!" Yamauchi performed the cool "Migiashi Evidence" as a solo song. She also double centered the 16th gen song "Dakitsukouka?" together with Asai Nanami.

    Yamauchi performed in the AKB48 Group young members' concert titled "Hotei Sokudo to Yuuetsukan Fresh All Stars Concert ~Zero Position no mirai~" in January 2018 at Tokyo Dome City Hall, and fascinated many fans with her performance. She was the only member from the 16th gen to be selected to the senbatsu of "Teacher Teacher", and it was her first senbatsu.

    Currently she's a member of Team 4, and she recently centered the team's song "Neko Allergy" among her other activities.

    Her refreshing smile and dynamic, cool performance are her charm points. We'll expect many great things and activities from her from here on, too.

    Yamauchi Mizuki's presence stood out during TIF
    During TIF, which was held after the rank-in concert, Yamauchi was one of the Fresh Senbatsu members and performed as its center.

    Many idol fans discovered the presence of "AKB48 Fresh Senbatsu's Yamauchi Mizuki" during TIF. She'll most likely carry AKB48's future on her shoulders.

    • High Tension

    • Accidentchuu (Zukkii's comment: "It was my first time dancing this song, and it was a bit difficult, but it was really fun!")
    • Hotei Sokudo to Yuuetsukan
    • Teacher Teacher
    • Heavy Rotation
    And during another mini-live (source: Zukkii's mobame):

    Today Zukkii and Yuiri went to a cat cafe together (photos from https://twitter.com/yuirii_murayama/status/1032587696147902465)! According to Zukkii's mobame, she's already made plans with Yuiri to visit another theme cafe soon.

    On Saturday Zukkii's going to appear with other AKB48 members at the JAM EXPO 2018, and on Sunday she's at a HS event at Makuhari Messe.

    I though she would've become the next gen ace, but the more the time passes, the more she looks like a "non-event" :(

    Translated this article published on 2018/08/28 on okmusic's website:
    https://okmusic.jp/news/288257

    It's the second article about Zukkii in August on that same site. I recommend checking out the original site - it has some really nice photos!

    AKB48's Yamauchi Mizuki, at @jam EXPO 2018: "I prepared by watching the performance videos of the senpai members"

    @jam EXPO 2018 was held on 25th August 2018 at the Yokohama Arena. It was held for the 5th time, but AKB48 appeared there for the first time this year. AKB48 performed on the Strawberry Stage for 30 mins, starting at 17:30.

    The appearing AKB48 members were Yokoyama Yui, Mukaichi Mion, Fukuoka Seina, Muto Tomu, Komiyama Haruka, Kojima Mako, Kato Rena, Taniguchi Megu, Murayama Yuiri, Iwatate Saho, Kubo Satone, Kawamoto Saya, Yamauchi Mizuki, Sasaki Yukari, Ma JiaLing and Asai Nanami.

    On the "Majimuri Gakuen Special Stage", the appearing members were Oguri Yui, Kurano Narumi, Okabe Rin, Yokoyama Yui, Takahashi Ayane, Mukaichi Mion, Iwatate Saho, Yamauchi Mizuki, Taniguchi Megu, Fukuoka Seina, Muto Tomu, Sasaki Yukari, Ma JiaLing, Ogino Yuka, Homma Hinata, Kato Minami and Takino Yumiko.

    "I prepared by watching the performance videos of the senpai members"

    After that, AKB48 Group Gathering Special was held at 18:30 on the talk stage. The appearing members were Yamauchi Mizuki, Fukuoka Seina, Asai Nanami, Shimizu Maria, Oda Erina, Takino Yumiko, Yabushita Fu, Kadowaki Miyuna, Yamaguchi Maho, Sugahara Riko and Nakamura Ayuka. Kuro-chan served as the MC for the one-hour-long talk show.

    Kuro-chan asked the members "How was the Majimuri Gakuen special stage?", and Yamauchi Mizuki answered: "I'm really happy that we were able to come together and stand on the same stage with the Majimuri members again."

    They performed "Majisuka Rock'n'roll", "Yuri wo sakaseru ka?", "Flying Get" and "Iiwake Maybe" during the "Majimuri Gakuen special stage".

    Kuro-chan also asked: "You also performed the theme song for "Majisuka Gakuen". How was it like to perform a song originally performed by the senpai members?" To that, Yamauchi answered: "I performed it today for the second time, and I prepared myself for it by watching the performance of the senpai members to give a good performance during this second chance!" Kuro-chan then asked from the audience: "Well, everyone, how was it?" and got loud cheering and applauses as a response.

    She performed "Migiashi Evidence" splendidly

    As all the members were being introduced, Kuro-chan said: "16th gen's Zukkii has really long legs and apparently can dance really well?" To that, Yamauchi answered: "I've attended dance lessons (hip hop, jazz, ballet etc.) since 2nd grade of elementary school." Kuro-chan then asked if she could show the audience a bit of dancing, and the bewildered Yamauchi wondered what she should perform.

    The audience requested "Migiashi Evidence" very loudly. Kuro-chan then commented: "It seems your fans gave us the answer!"

    Yamauchi then said: "Well then, the intro of "Migiashi Evidence"...", moved to the center of the stage and performed the intro of "Migiashi Evidence" to the rhythm of the applauses.

    Yamauchi performed "Migiashi Evidence" as a solo number during the 16th gen KKS stage "Let's go KKS!", and her fans are really familiar with the dance.

    Kuro-chan commented "Wasn't that brisk and skillful! You're really good!", to which Yamauchi replied "Thank you very much!" and returned to her seat.

    "It's really great you were able to perform at the Yokohama Arena two times in such a short time"

    When asked which events really stayed in their minds from the summer, AKB48 members pointed out the "Kanshasai" concert.

    AKB48 Sekai Senbatsu Sousenkyo was held in June 2018. Yamauchi Mizuki, who ranked 92th, was able to take part in the "AKB48 Group Kanshasai ~Rank-in Concert" on 1st of August at the Yokohama Arena. Kuro-chan also pointed out: "It's really great you were able to perform at the Yokohama Arena two times in such a short time. Hopefully this'll become a habit of sorts."

    "My little sister's watermelon"

    When asked about their personal summer activities, Yamauchi showed her notebook which said "My little sister's watermelon".

    Kuro-chan wondered: "Your little sister's watermelon?", to which Yamauchi replied: "My little sister had grown a real watermelon at school and brought it back home. It's really big and looks really tasty - I'd really like to eat it!"

    Kuro-chan then commented: "That's a real summer memory, then! What a nice story!" The audience responded "Cuuuute!" in unison.

    "Please watch "Majimuri Gakuen"!"

    At the end they were asked if there was anything they'd like to promote, and Yamauchi said: "I'm acting as Nomura Ayame in the drama "Majimuri Gakuen" so please watch it!"

    Yamauchi's charm points are her invigorating smile and splendid dance performance.

    Yamauchi started her activities only in December 2016. She performed in the AKB48 Group young members' concert titled "Hotei Sokudo to Yuuetsukan Fresh All Stars Concert ~Zero Position no mirai~" in January 2018 at Tokyo Dome City Hall, and fascinated many fans with her performance.

    During the 16th gen's stage "Let's go KKS!" Yamauchi performed the cool "Migiashi Evidence" as a solo song. She also double-centered the 16th gen song "Dakitsukouka?" together with Asai Nanami.

    She was able to enter the senbatsu for the first time for the single "Teacher Teacher". In this year's SSK she ranked 92th. Currently she's a member of Team 4, and she recently centered the team's song "Neko Allergy" among her other activities. She's also part of the cast for the drama "Majimuri Gakuen", and she continues to widen her activity repertoire.

    We'll have great expectations for her growth and her activities as the representative of the AKB48 Group from now on.

    Funny detail from her talk: when she talked about the senbatsu announcement for Teacher Teacher, she revealed that when Hosoi-san (AKB48 theater manager) called her to congratulate her for her first senbatsu, Zukkii didn't recognize the number and ended the call after just a second after hearing a man's voice. The number then called her again and that time she answered it properly. :^^;:

    During Myounichi Yoroshiku on 180911 one of the talk topics was Zukkii (suggested by Ayane herself [hehe]) - here's a summary of what she had to say:
    • Zukkii gives off this lively and cute image on stage on top of her good dancing skills, but ie. in the changing room and off the stage Zukkii tends to be a bit of a natural airhead and calm. Ayane said that somehow it makes her want to protect Zukkii.
    • One example of Zukkii's "own pace"/airheadedness(?) was when they were filming Majimuri and everyone was having a fun time with the staff during a break, and then out of the blue Zukkii says something funny and interesting in a small voice to Ayane, who's next to her.
    • Ayane found Zukkii's bewilderment to be really cute, especially when Zukkii's faced with punishment games and she goes all "Eh, eh, what should I do, eee...."
    • Ayane described Zukkii as a natural airhead type, but more than that she finds Zukkii to be really "fluffy and soft" in personality (she used the word "howahowa", which gives a kind of clear image of Zukkii on its own, I think). According to Ayane, this side of Zukkii comes out during MCs regularly.
    • When Ayane heard that they'd be doing the new Team 4 stage, she wanted Zukkii to be the stage's center. She likes her liveliness and her beautiful dancing and smile.

    The pictures behind this link are a bit old (they're from TT's promo time), but there are some really good shots of Zukkii so decided to share the link, found it yesterday: https://thetv.jp/news/detail/148583/844535/
