[GENERAL] The AKB48 Thread

I love the songs choices! Of course Namida Surprise is there since they perform it at every CDTV New Year hehe I love that As for the line-up, this time the surprising members are Gyoten Yurina and Taniguchi Megu! I didn't expect to see both of them there especially Gyoten, I like her so this is great news! I like these recent senbatsu that management is doing, hopefully they keep giving little opportunities like this to different members here and there ^^/

 

365 Nichi no Kamihikouki: Perhaps Yukirin
Shitsuren Arigatou: Zukki
Namida Surprise: I don't know, but maybe Yuiyui, and it hasn't been too long since her birthday anyway (eventhough this song will be more adressing the new year instead of birthday)
Heavy Rotation: Usually it's Mion

 

buhu no Komiharu (again..)

 

Here's the video of tonight's broadcast:

And yet they put in visually challenging members like Onishi and Kuranoo, go figure

 

MISOGYNY

 

You should get your eye sight tested, mate. Naru is super cute and pretty imo. Momoka isn't pretty in a cute way, but I still find her beautiful.

 

Good luck girls

This new outfit looks really nice

It includes Miion talking to the hosts - according to WWS (via Google Translate) she said "There were many things that didn't go as expected this year". The message "Even if you are far away" is included in the message "Even if you are far away, your heart is connected". "It was this song that connected us with the seniors and fans of the graduates. I am full of gratitude to everyone who supported me". (Source: http://www.wws-channel.com/tv/246582.html)

 

I believe that one day, with the proper surgery, Naru and Onishi can become visually pleasant to @Reveen's eyes.

 

It's Reveen's eyes that need surgeries.

 

Somebody with better eyesight today was whoever made the dressing room labels at today's awards show - 48 and not 42 this time!

Given that, in context, this would mean "can look more like Komi"...

I like Onishi the way she is, thanks.

And what does @Mr. Take It Easy think of that?

 

62nd Japan Record Awards - Hanareteitemo

These dresses remind me of porcelain figures.

 

The JRA doesn’t usually allow lip syncing so I thought they were singing live and they sounded amazing. But then my bubble burst when that one member straight up didn’t move her mouth during her singing part.

 

^
Uh ? where ? who ?
I keep watching, and I don't clearly see someone forgetting her part, and since it's unisson singing, no one has really her very own part.
Not a proof of "no playback", but still ....
