Nakai Rika : Pride of a center in NGT. A real showdown without backing out.

STU members : Self intro
Takino Yumiko : B.L.T chief editor's top choice where he announced on Showroom

*Side note, there is also a Kawaei section about her acting career so far and some gravure pics.

 

Since all the English blog sites stopped providing daily updates, I have no idea what is going on in the AKBG scene. Any recent (huge) announcements since April 2017 like graduation, special event, Sousenkyo, etc.???

I'm so out of the loop and would like some information.

oh and also some information of the 46 Group would be nice.

 

We have a new chair.

 

So I just did some research. Apparently there will be no preliminary results this election? I also learned this will be in Okinawa. I'm actually gonna be at Okinawa but I'm leaving on the 15th, two days before the event.

I wonder if I will see any AKB members there given how small the island is.

But did anyone big announce graduation?
