    I've just come across this Thai-language news article (dated '12 กันยายน 2561' which I'm pretty sure is today's date in Thai format) which appears to have some news about AKB48 appearing at this year's Maya International Music Festival on 12/8 & 12/9 in Bangkok:

    A fellow Thai here at your service. It wasn't in the linked article, but during press conference today they announced they will bring AKB48 FULL TEAM (which I think means 16 persons, and not 100++ persons). Still no more detail though.

    People here hate the line up already, since the original Maya Music Fest are mostly EDM thing, and this year they change to K-pop, J-pop and little EDM. a lot of people are now consideration about refund their early ticket.


    and some rumor that AKB48 gonna held own concert in Thailand by the end of this year.

    It’s saying that it’s likely all the Japanese Izone members made Senbatsu. If that’s true it would be really surprising tbh considering they were said to not be able to promote with AKB for a year and a half

    If that's the senbatsu, then I guess I have more money in my pocket for next year's SSK :glare:

    (But also... 48G doing things this far in advance? Hilarious.)

    I don't think this is too far in advance.
    Usually we get this single performed during the Janken tournament and that's next week.

    I doubt we'll get it this year since Sentimental Train is coming out next week as well and that'd be a bit too much...
    ... and at the same time I wouldn't be surprised if we did since they probably want to capitalise on the IZONE girls while the iron is still hot.

    They did it to Dasu when she made the Kami 7.

    Which was also wrong.

    Nothing before December, I'd say.

    So long! was released in February and yet the MV was shot around October or November. It's September and the 54th will most likely be released in November. The I*ZONE members should have a tighter schedule soon, so maybe this was the only time everyone was available before that.

    When we had five singles a year.

    That's because the senbatsu was announced during the ranked and unranked concerts, simultaneously, in September and the Janken was held in October.
