    She was made center of 7D2, but the pushed one since the beginning was Lala.

    With?

    You can start saving 30+ votes for Mikotty so next year she could actually overtake Hana and further justify your opinion. Simple, right? :)

    4th gen shifted the fandom(HKT one) interest. Nuff said.

    Interesting that Yunana did proper bikini grav whereas Hana and Rara did conservative gravy, boring grav might work for Nogizaka but it doesn't work when you need a push in the 48-group.

    Kinda like how Meru and Mio didn't catch on, but Sakura and Haruppi did, huh?


    Koppu no Naka no Komorebi senbatsu (same as Rara), Team KII B-side center on Chicken LINE, included in 3 AKB B-sides before becoming center. By contrast, her handshake sales weren't all that impressive up till Negaigoto Mochigasure.

    Probably more but I don't really follow SKE.


    It's possible to push more than one person at a time.

    A month after their PARTY debut, Lala was already next to Rena in Maenomeri. It's hardly comparable.

    Mio and Meru caught on a heck of a lot more than Hana has. Still, grav is an important tool in a members arsenal and used at a judicious point in a members push it can get a member more notice and more fans. There's never one reason why a member catches on or doesn't but when they do the right type of grav at the right time it's definitely a help.

    They've also done more gravure, just not as much as Sakura and Haruppi.

    Mikotti so close, ouch. And 6 SKE among 81 to 100. It really hurts that SKE fans are such a bunch of hako-oshi that they try to push many girls to the front at once.

    Yunana is more of a fan favourite, yes, she is that type who easily clicks with fan, but she was not without push (centering kenkyuusei stage, Love Crescendo, early promotion, centering KII team song etc.). Back then Rara clearly had the maturity to be put to the front at once - in fact, comparing Yunana talking about Igai ni Mango in interviews and Rara about Mae no Meri back then Rara is clearly the more composed and mature one, she survived the backlash and fan have been warming up to her - one of 7D2 top HS sellers. So maybe Yunana is more of fan favourite and Rara is the mgmt push but both of them have both elements, and I'd day mgmt has been mostly smart with 7D2.

    Let's hope Mikotti does not graduate before next year. Also, glad to see 6th gen still have hope, they may not be as talented as 5th gen but they are fighting so hard.

    We both know how much 48G overseas fandom, excluding the few observant one, were paying attention to their bazillion B-sides. Even the Koppu unit single.

    Besides, she gain domestic fandom favor far before that "push". (If it's big enough to be called a push.)

    I thought HKT48 2nd darft who'd be pushed was Maria because I believe she got most attentions because of her height, being the shortest member of 48.

    We both also know how relevant the overseas fandom is.

    Exactly. So does the claim of "Yunana was pushed" here.

    (Although you can call that "B-side push". I won't stop you there.)
