finally someone from the ngt48 memba who gives a nice gesture. this is so much better than saying that you are aiming at #1 spot for the next ssk while Not a Good Time 48 is happening. (youknowwho) now i really wish Honma Hinata will beat Ogiyuka in the next ssk. (if its will ever happen again)
I hadn't really thought of it but I suppose these yakkai wota could have compromising photos or video of the girls, after all they are pretty much stalkers. If it was the Korean idol business then there would definitely be hidden camera footage But thinking more seriously about it, although such a dating scandal could rock the group it probably wouldn't bury it. I tend towards thinking more of financial issues being ultimately the more significant issue for the AKS board. The SSK has been the golden goose of the 48-group but always a potential achilles heel too. It's long been speculated that a scandal regarding SSK votes could explode in AKS faces so if it came out that some girls had benefitted through consorting with yakkai wota then who knows how bad that scandal could be. Girls get more jobs and more prominence through doing well in SSK (and HS), Ogino pretty much landed her Hori Pro gig because of her stunning rise in SSK from nowhere to Kami 7. I seem to recall Imamura specifically stating that NGT's senbatsu positions were based on the members SSK placing so if a member found a way to cheat their way to better placing in the group then some could take it.
Another English language story from Tokyo Reporter. "NGT48’s Maho Yamaguchi rips results of assault probe" https://www.tokyoreporter.com/crime/ngt48s-maho-yamaguchi-rips-results-of-assault-probe/
a local radio show is suspeneded. technically it's 2 shows, they broadcast back-to-back. 'we'll pause until we can broadcast with normal contents' https://www.oricon.co.jp/news/2132289/full/ https://www.ohbsn.com/radio/programs/ngt48/
CMIIW, but Runa wasn’t part of that stage. I’m abit confused, I checked the line up for 8th December stage, it was a Team G stage, so none of the Team NIII members should’ve been going home together on the same bus as Maho right? (If we’re assuming the girl from the bus incident came from the theatre)
As someone else pointed out, it might have been a KKS filling in for any of the girls that weren't present or simply watching their senpai perform, as it happens sometimes with the new girls

With all these cancellations and whatnot... do they still think it’s worth to protect these girls? Like, what else can they lose? The group is basically done for.
Kind of makes u wish Aki-p and management took this much effort to save SDN48 huh lol (I am pressed and forever will be pressed they are the only 48-group to be forced to disband atm). I guess they don't see a point if the investigation is over tbh. i would prefer Maho to spill their names, but I don't think she ever will.
NGT isn’t gonna get shit after this, so they might as well disband it. The rest of the group is getting the aftermaths of it, with AKBSHOW and ANN and the SSK being cancelled, so wtf do these guys/girls have on the group?
As long as wota support them I think it'll be somewhat fine and it seems NGT is more involved with higher ups than we might think? if true it wouldn't be that much of a shock now right?
They are so stupid. Even if they are 100% innocent, this was a really foolish trip to take considering the current situation. If they are less than 100% innocent, then this is just them blatantly showing off that they think they're invincible. Either way, no matter if they are guilty or not, they are idiots.
More rumors, from Girls Channel this time. Ogino Yuka + other NGT48 members will transfer. AKS unclear who's criminal/innocent so mixture of both will be transferred AKS will release Maho's graduation in April Nakai Rika will stay in NGT48 https://mobile.twitter.com/hirobook3/status/1110696141765730305 https://mobile.twitter.com/hirobook3/status/1110696144630366208 Also could anyone provide a translation of this? It seems easily misinterpreted and I'm not confident enough to translate it properly. https://mobile.twitter.com/nyarokoji/status/1110705734252007424
I certainly hope that rumor isn't true. At this point I can't say "is AKS really that stupid?" because we all know they are, but transferring the poison to other groups doesn't seem like the best move, here.
While sure, shouldn't be surprising if this is true, but she was only in SKE48 for the 1st election and then transferred to SDN48.
