Single AKB48 51st [Jabaja] (2018/03/14)

are u talkin about it?

 

Yeah And a few others too

 

So I think it's safe to think they're just pushing Nana bc she's the most successful push recently, not because they thought it would be great if they did a song like UZA where Nana would rock it.
Kind of a disappointment, but I'll not freak out, maybe it's a nice song or something. Maybe.

Yumiri~n! No Mahohon as expected, oh well...

 

Just wondering, how was Uza and those dark songs received by the public? If it’s not well received, I’m not surprised that management aren’t willing to put those out anymore. If not, then I’m assuming it’s the current members’ inabilities to carry out such a concept.

 

Big Trouble!

Kenshi Yonezu will release his new single on the same day as AKB's single! And we know how big Yonezu's fanbase is...

AKB48 is Fine, they will still be #1 Selling 5x the amount the #2 artist will be that week (Which I'm guessing Perfume, since they have a single coming out on that day).

 

Meh I wouldn’t be worried. He isn’t going to outsell them physically and akb has no chance of even getting close to his digital sales so it will all be fine.

 

He sold 59K in the first week with his last single, I wouldn't be worried...

 

No one can beat AKB in physical sales anyways

 

Arashi ?
It seems akb lost to them since 2013 in physical album sales

 

I think it is better to compare singles based on season. Spring singles for sure have low sales. This single should be compared to Shoot Sign.

 

overall, arashi, nogi, amuro namie beat akb in physical sales revenue. esp in thers of dvd and blu-ray sales

Yunana's vulcans are nothing compared to Moeka's missiles though.

Not to mention reduced concerts. We only had 4 major concerts last year. This caused some fans to oshihen to other idol groups, especially those who are at the same level as Ogawa Maina.

 

Oh WoW what happen to Miion HS drop af

Interesting. This single (and the normal ones) has 6 HS Events, so the allocated HS slots are divisible by 6 (except the top girls who spare some slots for special stages). In Shoot Sign, we had 5 normal HS events and one Yukata festival. The number of allocated HS slots there were divisible by 5, so I guess they did not sell HS but another ticket for the Yukata Festival.

 

Mion sent a mobile mail regarding the sousenkyo shortly after handshake applications started. It seemed to have encouraged many of her fans to start seriously saving up for the election and to prioritize votes over handshake tickets. I've seen several Mion fans tweet or post on 5ch (formerly 2ch) that they're applying for fewer or no handshakes for the 51st single because they're saving up for the election. There also doesn't seem to be too much concern from her own fans regarding her drop in sales because they expected it to happen for this single.
