    It's not an argument that has to be divided into "for or against", or deciding where to draw the line between extreme and regular fandom. It's called a a discussion. The goal is to learn facts and about other people's opinions and weigh in with your own, all of which we've achieved in this discussion so far. That's the major issue with forums nowadays. Everyone has to be so extreme about everything. If there's no bottom line it's not worth talking about? A discussion can be just a discussion sometimes, you know... =/ I like when it's more like this and not a bunch of people at each other's throats over something meaningless (like it usually is). And this is certainly a worthy discussion to be having considering how popular Showroom is among 48g fans right now.

    I think everyone mentioned some good points but as someone who goes to handshakes quite often here on this forum there are some thing i'd like to add about greeting them.

    I do agree to some extend that the girls are usually less mentality prepared on SR than going into these handshake events. In the end they're still people and they do drop their guard after hrs and hrs of meet and greet. There is always favoritism as well.
    Some exist way more in some girls than others. You'd be surprised what kind of information are told off sometimes to the fans. People just don't really share it publically because the members would get in trouble. One example would be when Milky told a group of her regulars and I, the date of her graduation concert. I didn't share any of it except to a couple of relli good buddies in the fandom. I didn't think of it as raising my e-peen but rather I was glad she told me about it so I could actually take the day off AND go. Luckily she did because Yoshimoto did not announce till like almost 2 weeks prior to the concert.

    I can't speak for the other members @ET920 has mentioned but this wasn't anything new that Akarin told on SR that she doesn't like being the 2nd oshi. There are several occasions this has come up in some of my Akarin oshi regulars's conversation with her. Even as someone like me who ever only sees her here and there have caught on to that without her needing to actually say those words directly. I guess wut I'm trying to say here is that there are a lot of things you can pick up on from the members by interacting with them. Some of these members aren't the best actresses out there and often than not, they will slip up from their reactions, facial, or even verbally.

    I personally do not think a fan's relationship with his idol is necessary "fake" but expecting something to fruit off that is just ridiculous lol. That being said, u still don't have to take anything off the table since time after time we see cases of idols and fans hooking up outside the structure lol.

    I believe this is the continuation of that Avex - Aki-P project in creating a theater/drama company (first revealed in Sept last year). Probably not related directly to AKB.

    The member and lane for Nagoya Dome national HS (April 29th) has been announced -> http://ameblo.jp/akihabara48/entry-12268572751.html

    I'm sorry you feel that way. I was just presenting my views on the discussion on the merits or otherwise of spending money on idols whether it be HS tickets, SSK votes or SR gifts. Anyway I have no further trips planned to Japan for at least the next 12 months so it'll be a long time before you hear anything from me again.

    If I had done a trip like that I'd be excited about it too and talking about it everywhere and you would just have to suck it up!

    Personally I enjoy hearing about people's time in Japan, especially if it's related to AKB, but even if not.
