(Dec 16) Sorara went back to Kusatsu Onsen in Gunma for a mini AKB48 live! context: this is one of the places where "AD Oguri no Jikenbo" drama was shot. She went there with Mahopyon, Zukki, Erii, Yuiyui, and Maria. Lots to learn from those experienced senpais! Oh also with Hiroyuki-san too, so seems like we'll see an AKB48 Saikin Kiita episode soon! Sources https://twitter.com/gunma_gunmachan/status/1603683854837071872 https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FkKLt18acAAiKCE?format=jpg&name=large From there, she went straight to: =============================== Dec 17 - 17ki 2nd Fan Meeting, Round 1 at 15.00 JST Iiken! Christmas FanMeeting ~Presenting Wonderful Love to All the Lab Chiefs~ if you missed it, you can watch some free part here: (or full if you are a subscriber) Round 1 (starts 15.00 JST) https://nicochannel.jp/akb48-17ken/live/smG5ErG2L6yeCPd7uYg8zAFY Big panels at the event place: (not small acrylic stand ones like @Aka 's above) https://twitter.com/pampaka/status/1603992233510047744 Early Christmas! Members in Santa cosplays! Opening song as the theme of the fanmeeting: Wonderful Love ! Followed by First Rabbit, since next year is the Rabbit Year They then get comfortable to watch the short movie by Ericoberg Director: 17kenkyuujo presents: "Detective Masai's [Thank You ya de~] Case Files" To summarize, Hotechan the Housekeeper was found dead. There are a few suspects that recently interacted with her: each of them got cool introduction scene like these: Also KOKKO got a very fitting role for her character: Personally it was very fun to watch! Also incorporated a lot of 17ki girls' real life quirks into the characters and story, even if it's only for funny jokes. Like how Aichan loves hugging walls, or Mizumin putting nattou into her food. Ericoberg Director did a very good job! It was all shot within a day. Other tidbits that I caught: Kokko was able to fully remember all her lines, while the others like Aichan needed to read from boards or listen to staff reciting it. Masaru now has a newfound respect for Actress job, as she was struggling to act well as the main character. This includes Sorara that did some acting before this. She used to judge good and bad actresses when watching dramas, now she won't do it anymore. Also Masaru got 1 Iina point for doing well in the movie, but -3 for coming really late on this important day. Her excuse was that she forgot to tell her mom, and her iPhone alarm was set for weekdays only Next segment is YuruYuru Karaoke Kouhaku Uta Gassen! ❄️Theme is Winter Song Competition!❄️ Team White ⚪ Team Red ❤️ They take turns singing: Red Team #1 - Bokura no Seifuku Christmas - =LOVE by Erichan, Hotechan, and Sorara video : https://streamable.com/goasvp White Team #1 - Aka Hana no Tonakai (Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer) by Kokko and Nonchan Red Team #2 - Christmas Song - BackNumber by JunCres team (Mizumin, Sorara, Masaru) White Team #2 - The 5th - =LOVE by Yukitan and Aichan Red Team #3 - Awatenbo no Santa Claus (a Japanese children's Christmas song) by all Team Red members White Team #3 - Mr. Snowman - e-girls by Yukinee, Yukitan, Aichan Personally I was cheering for Red Team since I found their songs more enjoyable, especially the Bokura no Seifuku Christmas, it's actually good song and it was performed well! Assorted pics of the segment: Last segment is Present Lottery from 17ki Santa! Each member prepared a present, and the lucky audience will get the presents! Lastly, another photo-allowed session : Message from twitter : (video) https://twitter.com/akb_trainee48/status/1604027685805912066 It was fun!! Can't wait for the 2nd round soon! (at 18:30 JST) if you really can't help becoming subscriber of 17kenkyuujo, you can watch it here : BV1bR4y1k7bP .
I've found some fan-taken videos of the photo-allowed sessions: if the video does not show watch the video here if the video does not show watch the video here if the video does not show watch the video here if the video does not show watch the video here
sora looks so small here. btw you can append twitter images with "orig" instead of "large" to get the original image dimensions. i use this because i assume "large" will at some point actually make an image smaller.
I was able to watch both Christmas Fan meets. Part 2 was similar to Part 1, so similar that I thought I paid the extra fee for a rebroadcast (I missed the opening of Part 1). but then the red/white team battle had a different setlist. It will be better summarized by @donjonnie but I just want to say, Kokone and Hatakeyama in Itoshisa no Defense ! and Hote-chan channeling aachan in Skirt Hirari should have won it for her team.
How does it feel like to have only positive ratings in one of your posts? Wouldn't it be better if some of this content goes to her individual threads instead of this one? I mean, very soon they will all be promoted to their teams and this thread will stop making any sense. Their threads are mostly empty meaning that they won't have any content from their first year as AKB members. I mean posts like these:
Hmm it's true that it would be nice if their threads got more content (@donjonnie does post in the individual threads too), but I think it's also a good thing to have all the informations in here, as long as it's shared somewhere! if I compare to some previous gens, they didn't have much in their individual threads but also didn't have a thread for their gen so they ended up with nothing... but you're right that there could be more infos in their individual threads (especially for example Yukitan's thread that has like 3 posts). I'll try to contribute ^^ (Btw I'll be a little sad when they'll get promoted since they'll be separated T_T) I hope the news about Yukinee is true! She received a great response when she was on the music show last time, even if she only appeared for a second (I think the senbatsu members posting pictures with her on their social medias probably helped). Hopefully she can get more attention and also all the other 17th gen girls eventually
This is an advice since you weren't a forum member at the time. (maybe just lurking ?) This thread was locked during several weeks because of "rumors rumors rumors" and the thrower had some issues with the mods. You want to share informations, that's fine. Then show where they originate from, that it's not all fabric. It's a question of honesty and credibility. Rumors are bad, and may lead people to wrong opinions, deceptions, waiting too much on something that happens to never come to be true etc. Just saying.
Fair point, back then on page 14 when 17ki started to get more individual jobs, I once asked if it's better to keep including individual info as one-stop post: and the only response was by @moomookan to keep them in one post as it helps the wiki, so I continued to do so. Besides, 17ki girls are still relatively unknown so I think a bit individual info here will be helpful for new visitors to make their choice of oshi. I'm not against anyone crossposting or copy pasting what I posted here to the individual threads, since I did it a few times for Aichan's thread but was unable to continue doing so consistently due to time constraints. So I'll be happy if the girls' individual fans would stand up to the task and update the threads too. Ooh those footages are so clean! Well while she's small and cute indeed, it's also that the other senpais around her were all the taller ones so she looked even smaller Also thanks for the tips, I'll try them next time! Here's your Christmas 17ki Wallpaper! They are doing similar pose to the Fanmeeting chibi version!

Christmas FanMeeting ~Presenting Wonderful Love to All the Lab Chiefs~ Yep, as @x_lambs said, for the 2nd round, opening to the end of short movie it's all the same. The difference is on YuruYuru Karaoke Kouhaku Uta Gassen! This time the theme is AKB48 Song Competition! Team White ⚪ Team Red ❤️ They take turns singing: White Team #1 - Wasshoi B! by Aikyou pair: Aichan and Erichan video : https://twitter.com/48RequestHour/status/1604092687576993792 Red Team #1 - Itoshisa no Defense by Kokko and Nonchan video : https://twitter.com/48RequestHour/status/1604093688681926656 this was Nonchan's choice since 1st round was Kokko's choice. White Team #2 - Nemohamo Rumor by Masaru, Yukinee and Sorara + Aichan as Backdancer video : https://twitter.com/48RequestHour/status/1604094410438094850 Red Team #2 - Enkyori Poster by Yukitan and Mizumin video : https://twitter.com/48RequestHour/status/1604095431935676417 White Team #3 - Yobisute Fantasy by all White team members video : https://twitter.com/48RequestHour/status/1604096014477950976 Red Team #3 - Skirt Hirari by Yukitan, Hotechan, and Mizumin video : https://twitter.com/48RequestHour/status/1604096798850629632 Personally idk which team to support, both did well! Masaru was hyperactive as usual lol. Assorted pics of the segment: The rest of the event is the same as round 1. Bonus: Ueki-manager hard at work: =================================================== Share house electricity breaker can't handle AC, Microwave Oven and Showroom Lights all at once. if the video does not show watch the video here Breaker trips when Mizumin was doing showroom and Hotechan turned on the microwave. Perhaps also because all of them came back together from the fan meeting and turned on all ACs in the house. Oh also in the same showroom she said that she is not scheduled for the theater on 28th because she's scheduled to attend the SHOWROOM Awards.
I really like that there is so much info in one thread about all the individual girls! Makes it a lot easier to keep an eye on them all not to mention it does make it so you see something about everyone.

Top Yell NEO 2022〜2023 17ki Preview from the back cover: full front and back covers: Thanks Amazon. Out on Dec 28. ------------------------- Speaking of TOP YELL, a fan shared the cheki pic they got from recent TOP YELL NEO edition. It was the Share House members! (Kokko, Hotechan, Erichan and Mizumin) https://twitter.com/aubykeei888/status/1604492309906980865 =============================== 17kenkyuujo #18 (Dec 21) The [Kyun] project turns out to be pairing the girls with boys and acting out your Christmas couple fantasies. images from 17ken twitter: Introducing the boys, Yuuki-kun and Kai-kun Yuuki is a straightforward alteration from Yuki into a boy's common name, while Kai (with the kanji of Sea) is a reverse of Sora (kanji meaning Sky). I personally feel Yuuki is quite handsome! Also Mizumin is strong vs smell-type punishments, so they're gonna prepare insect-type ones for her next time.

Meaning they can get whatever they originally listed as their wish. details here: https://nicochannel.jp/akb48-17ken/articles/news/arHWfPHmrsSQoUM5dhN4WWXB ------------------------------ Details of the result of 17Kenkyuujo Award will be revealed in: 17kenkyuujo #19 on Dec 27, 15.00 JST. Featuring ALL 17ki girls!
Today MStation, Erichan will replace Naachan in senbatsu. 3rd member of 17ki, congratulation. https://twitter.com/AKB48_staff/status/1606160683837427712?cxt=HHwWgMCgxbqoncosAAAA So the HS results works out, Erichan has appeared in lots of recent Sayonara Mouri ep and now TV SHOW I remember back when 16D3 just debuted, only one member from each can get the chance to appear on TV Show like this, great to see this much oppotunites given for 17ki.
Here's today's performance (credit to uploader): (I've put a better quality YouTube video in the Hisarippu thread but I doubt it'll stay up for long.)
A tip: it's possible to access 1080p quality on bilibili if you have an account. It's free and easy to create one. EDIT: accidentally sent it before finishing writing the post lol
Congrats to Eriko for TV live debut! more offshot pics of Music Station live: Spoiler: sources https://twitter.com/airi_sato0624/status/1606222339896754176 https://twitter.com/akb_trainee48/status/1606227869478158336 https://twitter.com/AKB48_staff/status/1606211991760080896 https://twitter.com/erichan_akb48/status/1606247817076432898 So Aichan was on Naachan's position, while Erichan was on Aichan's. A bit unfortunate since Aichan's position is hardly seen from the middle camera. Aichan herself needed several live shows to learn a few tricks to get the camera's attention. --------------------------------------------------------- HS result might've pushed her to be the one to be on stage indeed. Totally deserved! However she was not the only 17ki beside Aichan that were called to the rehearsals, it seems : if the video does not show watch the video here Masaru feeling a bit frustrated of not being able to perform on Music Station. Apparently she and Mizumin were suddenly called for the camera rehearsal for this and the previous FNS Kayousai, and they had to work hard to learn the choreography within/on the day, (for Motokare on FNS and Hisalippu on MSte) but ended up not being selected to be on the show itself. (Maybe some senbatsu members initially were unavailable but suddenly got available again?) She said she's not really hoping for it, but certainly there were some expectations. Looking at Eriko, she sets her goal for 2023 to sell out all her slots. Oh my, 17ki competition getting hot eh... But the tears of frustration is a sign that they put an effort towards something! And 2 17ki members being prepared as backups, (over many others current members), certainly means something, right? Let's hope the "chance no junban" rolls around for the other 17ki too!
