    As happy as I am about this, I feel like they could have chosen better pictures of Naachan for this award than this one. If you compare this to, for example, the 55th Single covers of her above, she looks so much better on those.

    I think they would like someone who's sympathetic towards every member. I don't remember what or even if Naachan said anything about Riripon's incident, but Juri sounded a bit judgemental towards those who do date and/or upset their fans. I understand her point of view but changing her speech quickly (because obviously she had not planned to say this originally), without knowing Riripon's side of the story or her reasoning for this wasn't a very smart move in my opinion either.

    I feel like they should get work phones for when they go abroad for work. Mobame is part of their job and if they're travelling 'cause of work, I feel like they should also get a phone they can use to fulfil their other duties

    They were sending Mobame fine in Thailand (a pocket wifi was provided by staff), etc. The main problem with NY is the time different. Members are only allow to send Mobame from 9.00~22.00 JST (in AKB48 case anyway, other group might differ). All mails go through staff check, so that's why you will usually receive mail from 9.30~22.30 JST.

    It's more likely that without Mobame she decided to ignore all her other SNS too, because it's unlikely that she won't have WiFi in the hotel. The other possibility is that she was on a location shoot that forbid her to use SNS (Nemousu TV come to mind on this).

    Moday (2/25) was Team 4 stage :)
    Tuesday (2/26) she was having a meal with Yuiri and go to NyanNyan market together (they accidentally met Seichan and Sayaya there).
    [​IMG]
    Wednesday (2/27), 55th single senbatsu were recording for BuzzRhythm. Hopefully she will be included in the talk session. She also watched Saho, Megu, Tanao's stage play "Yama Inu" after that. It seems to be a really weird play.
    Thursday (2/28) she was with her mother before performing in Team 4 stage. Her mother has a nice mint color on the inside of her hair (I think the rest of her hair is beige color) . Of course since her mother is probably the one that is from Kansai, she wore Leopard print scarf :^^;:
    Friday (3/1) she was shooting for AKB photo card. With Mako during the shooting :)
    [​IMG]

    And some unused pictures taken for 55th single

    =====
    She will appear a bit in AKB48 group kinkyuu kaigi. This is the 3rd episode from this series. Basically the plan is to have AKB new member visit each sister group and talk about stuff. It is a continuation of that show on Fuji TV after SSK where they have a meeting. It will be broadcasted on March 27th
    https://twitter.com/fujitv_nexco/status/1100991872992862208

    Shop limited bonus photo that has Naachan in it can be found in these shops

    Rakuten Books - Okada Nana and Mukaichi Mion
    http://akb.kingrecords.co.jp/cd/002957.html

    =====
    She will appear a bit on the next AKBINGO to tell a hint for a game being played in the show
    She will also perform on the next Team 4 stage (March 5th) https://ameblo.jp/akihabara48/entry-12443214323.html

    =====
    Apparently on the live for top 8 singing contest, they will sing a solo and duet. I always think that the duet will be with the other top 8 (+1) but somehow people have other ideas. Of course I don't mind if they do a duet with non top 8 member but hopefully everyone will pick a really good singer.
    https://twitter.com/andare_p/status/1100668140139073536

    =====
    If somehow Naachan send less than 7 mails/day, it is not because she forget about it but the mail might not pass the censorship https://7gogo.jp/okada-nana/21198
    Like it has been explained above, mail goes through a check and if the content is too problematic by the staff's standard then it won't be sent. Normally if a mail got blocked, she realized that and try to sent another mail to compensate for it. On Thursday, well, she sent 8 and only 6 got through :^^;:

    I had no idea she had been to NYC!
    Glad that she also likes musicals. Hope she tries some West End ones soon ddd

    I believe she will center the next single with Yuiyui.
    Their positions in Jiwaru Days are the same as Jurina and Sakura in Shoot Sign, and they centered Negaigoto. So here’s hoping!

    Next single will be (if it's held) the SSK single, I don't see the chance for a W-center for that one as very high, same goes for a Yuiyui center.
    Depending on what management wants with Naachan and how much they want the SSK to be won by an AKB member then the SSK center should go to Naachan,
    Not only because she wants to win the SSK but also because she is, in my eyes, the only AKB member that actually might stand a chance.
    But last year we saw what a difference the location of the SSK-election venue can have, so I guess the results from this year will also be heavily influenced by the location of the venue.

    I do believe they’ll go for it.
    They are usually centered by AKB girls except for Negaigoto, and that one was hinted by Shoot Sign.

    So... yeah, combining both theories, Naachan x Yuiyui should be the next centers.

    Naachan winning might be hard to achieve. If Jurina, Dasu and Ogiyuka run it’s gonna be a battle. And more with NGT probably not getting a single anytime soon.

    Dasu is what I mean by that the SSK location is important. Dasu went from 63.124 votes in 2017 to 154.011 votes in 2018, something nobody expected and can only be explained by the fact that the SSK was held in Nagoya.
    Naachan had 75.067 votes in 2018 so purely speculating on locationeffect she could go to 160.000
    However I do agree that it is going to be hard with Jurina to compete against. How big of a threat Ogiyuka is going to be all depends on how well people will let the voting be affected by the scandal.

    My thoughts (and a fear):
    Naachan can win the SSK if it is going to be held in Tokyo and if she gets the center position for the single (she will no doubt be the poster girl for AKB48) however I do fear that there is a good chance that mangement is giving the center to someone else, and I don't think that will be Yuiyui but Moeka.

    Ogiyuka's vote may falter on the back of the NGT scandal.

    Dasu is 27 and there may be a question over how long she'll stay in SKE and her participation in SSK.

    With Juri and Mako graduating, there's a slight chance their votes might be transferred to Naachan.:oops::oops:(Just my wishful thinking)

    I doubt Naachan need our votes, she's will do just fine! Look at all those handshake sales!

    We'd hav to start worrying about buying and shipping fees for stuff from both Japan and Korea from now on

    But does Naachan really need our votes? With Sakura not participating and the recent scandal with NGT48, I think Naachan has a chance to come head to head with Jurina.

    I will still spare some of my votes to her though the way that I'm doing it before. She's one of my oshi after all.

    And how does she get head to head with Jurina if people say "she doesn't need my vote".

    Remember how people were expecting Sasshi's ridiculous vote count in 2015 to fall the next year? Remember how it instead got even higher in 2016 and again in 2017? And 2018 Jurina had within 500 votes of 2015 Sasshi.

    Naachan isn't going to close that 120,000 vote gap without help. Even just surpassing Dasu may be out of reach.

    ^ I'll keep that in mind when SSK-time comes around

    If its shaping up to be a 2-horse race, then I'll give it more consideration
    (afterall....I now have freed Juri and Sakura votes. And lets just say there is 'vested interest' in a Naachan win)

    As much as i love Naachan, the current vote difference between her and Jurina is around 120k. Even if you add up all the votes from Mako and Juri combined from 2018, the total vote of Naachan will be 159,294 which is still behind Jurina by a large margin and only above Dasu by approx 5k.
    I doubt she will be able to compete with Jurina at all.
    Besides, Sakura's votes might most likely split between the hkt members.

    Good point! Maybe I will re-consider adding more votes to Naachan once we know who will participate and who will not. The thing is I'd like to help my other oshi like Seichan and Rena to rank up or maintain their ranks but I might consider putting more votes to Naachan.

    3/2 (Saturday) AKB48 did another visit to Tohoku region for disaster area relief project. Naachan (with Kojimako, Miichan, Yumirin, Rinrin, Aoitan) visited Minamisoma, Fukushima.

    3/3 (Sunday) She met Yuiri and go to a restaurant together. They also happened to met Takahashi Sayaka (eito) at the station. Also Nemousu Thai episode aired that day, which is the first part. 2nd part will air next Sunday.

    3/4 (Monday) Yuiri either stayed at Naachan's house or Yuiri came to Naachan's house early in the morning. I'm thinking the former. After that, I'm not sure whether Yuiri is with her or not all the way, but Naachan did her medical checkup and shop for a gift to someone. After that I believe she had a dinner with the staff(s?).

    3/5 (Tuesday) Team 4 stage! During the member introduction, she said that she want to graduate from acting like an adult. She said that lately she had been saying things that will be censored on TV :^^;:
    Also during one of the MC session, Naachan asked about the tittle of her photobook. Everyone went silent, including Yuiri :^^;: To be fair, the words for the title (Kazaranai Houseki) is not something that you normally encounter.

    3/6 (Wednesday) I believe they did a recording for Jiwaru DAYS TV performance. She also had a meal with her manager and normally when she eat with the staff they will seriously talk about AKB and or the future.
    Also on this day Miki appeared on a TV show and present her Kami 7 AKB member (active and former) that is not suitable for marriage. Miki put Naachan in 4th because Naachan is too serious.

    3/7 (Thursday) She had a job involving taking pictures and videos. Probably for one of those AKB games. She also started playing Beat Carnival and pick Miyupon as her oshimen. At the end of the day she celebrated NaaMama and Saran's birthday (which is on 3/8).

    =====
    She will participate in the release event for 55th single
    http://akb.kingrecords.co.jp/event/002968.html
    It is on LaQua Garden Stage, Tokyo Dome City, March 13th.

    They also have posted some exclusive store promo sample for 55th single

    =====
    As for SSK, I think both Jurina and Dasu votes are not sustainable. Unlike Sasshi where she was visibly getting more popular (which the old argument about Sasshi can't get more but then get a lot more votes was based mainly from the history of other members), I can't really imagine how Jurina and Dasu can sustain their votes. Of course if someone want to make sure their favorite get no.1, it is better to target a bigger amount than last year SSK, thus around 200k votes which will be very hard for Naachan. Naachan will need every votes that she can get. I'm hoping management will help Naachan in achieving no.1 by promoting her more which I don't think will happen. At this rate, Naachan will need to get no.1 in SSK first before management supported her more.

    Naachan made a short appearance on the last AKBingo episode (532). It's so interesting to see how far she's come

    Naachan is a VA on Shinken Seminar Chuugakko Kouza short animation "Kimi wo, Ugokase"
    The anime character design is Tsukiyama Kaya (Area no Kishi) and the theme song is Shukko (STU48)
    https://chu.benesse.co.jp/new_chu1/anime1/
    It will be out on 3/15
    You can read the translation of that YT video here starting from here https://twitter.com/Okadananafans/status/1103872358538862592 (there are 5 tweets)

    =====
    She is also confirmed to perform in STU48 2nd anniversary concert!
    http://www.stu48.com/news/detail/3790
    Basically all STU48 member are included.

    =====
    Natalie has published an interview with these 3 members -> Naachan, Nagi (8), and Moeka (K)

    I think the thing that made rounds in matome is her statement about right now young member are working hard. If you put sweat and effort, it will be rewarded properly. She wants AKB to be like that.
    Also some other part of the interview has been translated here https://twitter.com/Okadananafans/status/1103962367501590528 (6 tweets)

    =====
    Naachan has a beautiful girls photo booth on this weekend STU48 HS, basically has pictures taken by her
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    https://goo.gl/daEXUH

    She is not there on Saturday, but she will be there on Sunday. I believe yesterday she has been busy setting it up.

    :^^;:

    They also have a timeline in the HS venue showing notable stuff happened with STU. Okadananafans translated some of it that related to Naachan.

    Since Naachan will have a 2s on Sunday, hopefully we will have some 2s pictures posted. She hinted to wear a school uniform.

    =====
    For TV appearances, next week will be about Jiwaru DAYS performance -> 3/12 Utacon, 3/15 BuzzRhythm, 3/16 CDTV, 3/17 AKB48Show, 3/21 CDTV SP. The ones that is already confirmed will have Naachan in it are BuzzRhythm and CDTV. Utacon and CDTV SP is a live show, but she should be there and I don't think she missed any recording, so she should also be in AKB48Show.
    Also don't forget to watch Nemousu TV! :)
