Single AKB48 54th [NO WAY MAN] (2018/11/28)

I guess the joint Sakamichi audition is stalled exactly because they don't know what to call them

I say they do not deserve to be put on the same level as Mahopyon, Moeka and Kyoka

 

I know, I know ^^;

 

Hahaha no need for me anymore because they are just fine and awesome without me bragging about it and people who have eyes will see. I'm just really proud that my baby girls can finally have a stage to prove themselves

 

Great performance. Choreography-wise, this is the best I have seen so far amongst the entirety of 48G's live performances. Hardcore, clean, and synched.

Everyone was out of breath at the end. The MV is 5 minutes long, but they only performed it for 2'30", so a lot of parts from the MV were cut, for example the part where they gather into a close formation and touch each other on the shoulder (it's my most favourite part).

In UZA, they can perform it live for more than 4 minutes.

Spoiler: UZA live

But of course in NVM they have to cut so many parts and make it short, or else our girls will all pass out by the time they finish.

Well I hope they can perform this often.

 

Generally, each team performs the new single's A-side in the theater to promote, don't they? That'll be an interesting time lol

 

how dare you!!

glad to hear that. I thought you already jumped the boat.

can't wait to see yokoyui centering NWM.... in theater version.

I thought this was interesting. A Korean Miu fan is keeping track of her schedule and it shows how busy a pushed AKB senbatsu member’s schedule looks like on paper.

 

so not that busy...

 

Dasu's post SSK schedule

 

Poor Dasu, overworking then get a huge rank drop in 2019

Surprised it features most of the senbatsu for this performance (Since AKBINGO Performance don't usually have that).

 

I had to google Okada's height after watching that. I did't realize how smol she is.

It also seems that they had to do multiple takes because all the girls' hairdo was undone.

 

After watching their perf on AKBingo...

I expected the dance would be amazing when the members themselves said that the choreography is quite hard... but it turned out that they are just a bunch of weird movements that have nothing to do with the lyrics... Or is it just me?

it seems that a dance is considered hard in46/48 group if the choreo has so many random hand movements, jumping and kicking..even some cute style kpop groups are harder than the hardest choreo of nmb/ske.
