AKB48 Question & Answer

I believe that's her favorite food... her fortune cookie episode revolved around karaage as well...

 

So, what's "karaage" as food?

 

I believe a type of fried chicken, though I could be wrong

It is a cooking method. A type of deep fry with no batter, usually chicken but not limited to it.

fried chicken basically.

 

I really want to know the reason why some members don't get selected in their first audition, like Mogi Shinobu who joined 3 times before she got selected.

Is there any reason beside some of them don't know how to sing, dance or even not good looking?

 

karaage = Fried Chicken (There is a picture on fried chicken at the top of Mayu's twitter)

 

This maybe move the Q&A thread... but I want to "Answer" this "Question" in one word...


Practice

 

Does anyone knows what happened with Hasegawa Haruna?
I was rewatching kks performances from back 2012, and she stood out so much!!



Did she completely retire after not making it to the selection?

 

@Berii I don't know but I think you mean Hasegawa Haruna.

 

@gotbild yes! I just realized my typo, sorry about that.
But back to my question, I remembered her the other day...she and Watanabe Nene were kks that I liked and that didn't make it in the end (and Mitsumune, but we all know what happened to her, love her Twitter).

 

@Berii, Mitsumune did get promoted. She just never debuted with Team K because she graduated due to injury/illness.

 

I know! What I meant to say was that they were members that wanted to see more on a Team. I remember how excited I was with Kaoru being promoted to Team K, and how sad was that she didn't debut with them.

But from Haseharu and Nenechan I know nothing after they left.

 

Has anyone ever bought a Sukajan jacket from anywhere? I would love to get one but I am lacking trust with all websites that seem to sell them

(This is AKB related because of MajiJo lol. Just kidding, didn't know where else to post this)

 

Have bought mine last year directly in Japan. There is a store in Ameya-Yokocho (Ueno) that sells all the Maji-jo jackets for around 10.000JPY each.

Friends bought theirs online (didn't ask where) but they paid in total around $300US for it. Mainly because of inflated online prices, shipping taxes...

 

Thanks for the info! Since I don't have a possibility to go to Japan in the near future, I would have to buy one online. Does the shop Ueno or some other shop have online retailers?

 

@Pheebs I mean sukajan is a type of jumper..so I mean you can literally buy them from all sort of places since some brands carry them as their main product hence they can also range from all sort of prices...Of course if you're looking majijo related ones I guess they will also come in cheaper pricing since they're more or less just doing a knockoff design because of the demand.

 

@Sakuraism & @sscrla
Thank you guys so much for helping!

 

She concentrated on school after grad. Last year it seems she passed auditions for avex, and she is preparing as a singer. Her twitter is https://twitter.com/hazumax1371 and her instagram is https://www.instagram.com/h_haruna.71/ . She frequently uploads clips of herself singing, and she's really good wtf (https://twitter.com/hazumax1371/status/727090196852797442). AKB lost a gem right there.
