Single AKB48 57th [Shitsuren, Arigatou] (2020/03/18)

Back in Teacher Teacher era team 8 members were included in the other teams' songs. Also, team 8 has got many songs lately, so it's fair enough for other teams to get their songs, too. However, the demand for team songs doesn't seem as high, so units are probably a more interesting choice for the fans

 

Prolly it could be:
1. Senbatsu
2A. Next gen unit
2B. Miichan's grad song
2C. Sakamichi48/IZ*4648 2.0
2T. Aisuru hito

 

Interesting that Zukkii's getting the headline as '2nd Miyawaki Sakura' on Japanese media:

I know Sakura's a senpai that she admires a lot, but didn't expect this kind of press ('_')

 

Does the singing competition specify that the song needs to be in AKB single? With Moeka leaving before she got her reward, they probably will switch to the runner up and she's an NMB girl so that reward will probably be in NMB single (Kano's solo was also in SKE single too).

Something tells me that they're gonna make a competition for the newly formed units and the winner will get a coupling + MV, since the other two spots might have been occupied already. Miichan will deffo get a graduation song and SakamichiAKB might be in there cause it's spring single.

 

You know, most idol media just copy pastes what AKS sends them.

 

I had forgotten about Aisuru Hito and Miichan ñññ
So yeah, that's probably how it'll look like.

Not specified, but seeing that Kano got one, I imagine they were gonna continue with it. But then Moeka went and announced she was graduating, so they're probably grasping at straws trying to do something with it. I guess giving it to the second girl works just as well.

 

imagine if we get a 1st gen song for miichan's grad song

 

Let her have her moment jfc

 

and give the center to Acchan

 

LOL that genuinely made me laugh.

 

1 miilion sales secured again

She's more like Yuiyui 2.0 (or Mayuyu 3.0) than Sakura 2.0...

Spoiler

So IZ*ONE is going to be permanent group?

 

Anyone knows the group formation for this single?

 

Not been reveal yet (Just the Senbatsu + Some details on the single).

 

Yeah, I’m getting the hang of it now. ‘YuuNaa is Yuko & Maeda!’ is another as well

 

I hate the fact that it's actually probable lol.

I want Miichan to choose members and graduates that she wanted to take part tbh. "First Gen Song" especially if they can get Acchan would probably create a diversion from the fact that she's graduating.

 

I'd completely forgotten about this one

In all honesty, how many 1st Gen members can everyone really remember besides Acchan, Takamina, Kojiharu, Miichan, Tomochin, Mariko, Maimai and maybe Yukarin (Sato Yukari)? I just went to the wiki to see all the names and I can't think of any faces for these names

Usami Yuki, Urano Kazumi, Oe Tomomi, Orii Ayumi, Kawasaki Nozomi, Komatani Hitomi, Tojima Hana, Nakanishi Rina, Narita Risa, Hirajima Natsumi, Hoshino Michiru, Masuyama Kayano, Watanabe Shiho

Narita Risa sounds familiar (was she in Skirt Hirari?) and I think Hitomi and Hana I remember from SDN, although also not well enough to picture a face.

On another note, for Miichan's grad song the people I'd like to see are:

• Takamina and Kojiharu (No3b)
• Komiharu, Miion, Renacchi, Miyupon, Yukarun (Minegishi Team 4)
• Manami, Ayanan, Tomu, Mogi (Minegishi Team K)

I'm not sure if she's got enough popularity to get a solo like Kojiharu, Mayuyu and Sasshi. And part of her appeal in the later years was her guiding role as a captain, so it would be nice to see a video like Senaka Kotoba, where her kouhai send her off.

 

How can you forget Urano kazumi a.k.a CinDy? She was the one who lead Team B (3rd gen) at their debut, hirajima natsumi also in Team B at their debut, she was also in Watarirouka Hashiritai. I remember Nozomin from AKBingo, Kayanon was the most petite member in 1st gen IIRC, and Nakanishi Rina because of her um....post idol career.
