    Tbh I think more people (=Japanese) are more shocked at Yoasobi than 48G. I mean, 48G is predicted to drop out of Kouhaku for at least a couple of year already.

    Shiroma Miru tested positive for COVID-19 today.

    The problem is, there's a recording of music show on 27th (last Friday), which 48G top members attended.

    Cancelled right now:
    • Today stage (Yuiri+Sakki stage)
    • Yukirin cookpad live
    • Okabe Rin's exhibition in Ibaraki that is scheduled to begin today.
    No official announcement from AKB48 yet.

    EDIT: Announcement: https://ameblo.jp/akihabara48/entry-12641219985.html
    There is a personnel related to AKB48 that has been suspect to have COVID-19 or is a close contact to persons with COVID-19, so they postponed today stage.

    Hopefully Miru and everyone she came into contact is healthy, I guess they’ll be extra cautious now and maybe only do pure akb senbatsu performances

    I don't follow Nemousu TV that closely but it looks like there was an event scheduled tomorrow (12/1) called 'Dai 3-kai saikyo fan senshuken!' ('The 3rd Strongest Fan Championship'?) which has been postponed due to 'urgent circumstances' according to the show's official Twitter account:

    Yeah it was an event where member will get a questions, post them to twitter, and need to answer using the answer in the replies to their tweets (even if they know the answer, they can't write it themselves). First 2 times were quiz, this time it was going to be Oogiri (not sure how to translate that -- basically a gag championship).

    Most people are guessing the TV Tokyo recording clusters --- Tomu attended that recording, and was also scheduled for tomorrow Nemousu. But this is all speculation.

    comemorative video: 15 years of AKB48 :banana:


    if the video does not show watch the video here


    Mod note: Second post only 5 hours after previous post. Use edit.

    Some reassuring news have been posted on all the sites / blogs following Miru's health.
    So far nobody's pcr test returned positive.
    Except Yumirin who is still waiting on her results.
    Anyway the girls and staff members are adviced to stay some day at home.

    As for the upcoming performances at the AKB theater, the Team 4 performance scheduled for tomorrow is postponed and they are discussing about the15th anniversary performance.

    omg 58th single senbatsu!

    Jokes aside, I do hope they recover swiftly. It sucks for the anniversary, but what can you do in 2020.

    ^
    That's very reductive though.
    Cautious measures due to the long incubation period.
    Infected persons can show no signs of infection during something like 2 weeks.
    And well the tests aren't 100% accurate.
    So better prenventing than curing.

    Part of me understands that but I still think it's a shame, especially for the long runners like Miichan, Yukirin, Yuihan. This is already the 8th anniversary as well for Naachan, who is only 14th Gen.

    Also Naachan, Yuiyui and Zukkii are AKB48's latest centers (if you ignore Moeka since she left). Leaving Miichan, Yukirin, Yuihan, Naachan, Yuiyui and Zukkii out of the anniversary is really sad. Like I said, I get it, but... well.

    The 15th anniversary stage scheduled for Dec 8 is postponed. There will be a live stream with all members instead, with Myao, Komiharu, Saho, Naamin, and Onishi appearing from the AKB48 theater and the rest online.

    In addition to the postponed 15th anniversary stage, there will also be New Year Eve stage on Dec 31.

    The detail of postponed 15th anivwrsary stage and the NY Eve stage will be announced later.

    A New Year's Eve stage...that's what happens when AKB48 isn't in the Kouhaku. But has that ever happened even during the Kouhaku years?

    Hopefully the COVID situation settles down.
