[GENERAL] THE HKT48 thread!

Posted on G+ by Eretan. Group shot after the show....

 

I received a mail from HKT48 official staff telling me that tickets for Sasshi's play. From April 8th to April 23th. The stage play last 1 hour.

The price are....
▼チケット一般発売対象席種
・S席　￥9,800（税込）
・A席　￥7,800（税込）

S category is even more expensive than a 3 hour concert i had in SSA, for a 1 hour stage play. I think it is related on how famous the venue is, maybe?

Even as a HKT fan, to have to pay such a price for one hour.... Can someone tell me the duration and price of AKB49 stage play to compare?

 

AKB49 6,800
Wiz Musical
S 13,000
A 10,000

 

I agree, so much talent and good looks in HKT. Plus, so many members got picked up to help other groups like AKB, SKE and NMB. I think Sasshi had a lot to do with it. The usual senpai - kohai relationship prevents younger members from speaking up and developing their character, but Sasshi instead encouraged them to speak up, make the kohai feel welcome and comfortable, and looked after them and teaching them what they need to know. Now all HKT members kawaigaru the kohai members. It has become the HKT way.

 

I don't know if this was posted here yet: http://akb48-matome.blog.jp/archives/51960974.html
winners from HKT are: Kurihara Sae, Okada Kanna, Yamamoto Mao, Matsuoka Natsumi, Tashima Meru and Anai Chihiro

 

@moonlit winners for what? There was and awesome contest. Omg sounds funk

 

@MeruShige That is for a contest for a gravure shooting in Young Magazine.

 

@hjr1891 do you know the specifics? I observed it peripherally. When will the gravure with winner come out?

 

I don't know the full specifics, like when the final winner will be announced. Just that the second round of voting started the 16th with the postcards in that issue of Young Magazine, and the results for this voting will be in the May issue.

 

^so there will be only one winner? darn, I hoped all of the listed girls would get something ): (was looking forward to Okapan and Tomuyan)

 

What so special about this gravure contest? Is this going to be a special issue of Young Magazine? As far as I know don't akb48 group members appear on young magazine all the time.

 

Only a select number of members appear in Young Magazine and they tend to repeat members. Also Young Magazine has high sales so it's a chance to appeal to a lot of people who only ever see senbatsu members.

Posting here for people who don't check her thread: Kusaba Manami announced today that she will graduate next month. She said she wants to focus on her studies. Please discuss it in her thread: http://stage48.net/forum/index.php?threads/kusaba-manami-manamin.5339

The old "focus on her studies" reason. Oh well, it's the first HKT graduation since December 2013 which is pretty remarkable.

Perhaps this means Team KIV will pick 2 draft members instead of just one, especially since Sakura, Madoka and Mio will barely attend theater stages in future, not to mention Kanon.

 

Management might promote kks..

 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but she will be the first HKT 2nd gen to graduate.

 

Yes, but please keep it to her thread. DreamingPebbles just linked it above.

 

I know where her thread is, thanks. Since that is more of a general statement for the group, I preferred to say it here.

 

Since Kanon's kennin is getting cancelled, it's gonna be weird seeing her promoting the 5th single together with HKT. Hmm
