[GENERAL] THE JKT48 thread!

is time to create team 4 and 8 because the next gen are ready to catch the dream

 

I really wonder why they decided to announce 10th gen audition just before 9th gen wrap up. I mean currently there are 30-ish kks, unless there's gonna be a lot of graduation by 2020 (By many I mean 8 to 10 minimum)

 

thats probably why
i imagine some of the members already consults the management about graduation
orrrr they are just that confident, seeing the vote totals of this year being quite satisfying, and maybe they also confident about having a good single coming up.

 

I'm up for Team 4II

 

I think the probability of tem 4/8 ever happening outside AKB is close to impossible. Considering the timing of audition will probably in the first triquarter of 2020 by the mid 2020 the formation will probably be 15-16 member each team, <25 Academy A, and <20 Academy B. They can't make another team since they won't have enough kks to do their own stage/substitute regular member. This assumption were made since Aca A will probably be dominated by gen 8 and only they can substitute regular team since gen 9 probably just get the hang of Pajama drive.

 

Team 8 concept is great and can be used to showcase and represent the many regions of Indonesia. But perhaps a different name and with a sprinkle of unique JKT48 flavours. Something like a JKT48 Academy & JKT48 Circus are interestingly unique spin of ideas (like how SNH have their Team X's & other subdivisions, etc), so rather than Team 8, I'd rather they different name & use more creativity. And I don't think they'd need a Team 4, because AKB Team 4 is just another team, too bland of an idea if it was just a team. Plus they already have two levels of trainees... *shrugs

 

Wow, it looks so bad.

so because she has 10 she doesn't have a dream??? I think people have stop to pull out bullshit this girl have a dream and she don't want to wait.... why they can't understand

 

More like bc she’s 10 it’s mostly inappropriate for a bunch of adults, especially adult men, to stand in line to shake her hand and to pay money to watch her perform.

 

Nah, she would probably stay in Academy Class B for a long time.

 

i really hope the original single will still have that J-pop flavor going on.
how long usually it takes from the announcement of the lineup to the song release? not including high tension, HT was all over the place.

 

for the solo songs prize for the top 3

hope Shani will sings Yukirin's Kazanbai (Abu merapi). the balladness and the motivating lyric of the songs kinda fits her. also the fact that shes not from Jakarta will fit into the lyric.

"setiap ku bertemu hal yang menyedihkan,
hal yang aku ingat
langit warna biru kampung halaman
dan senyuman sang mama
diam-diam kurasakan waktu ku berhasil
lulus audisi
ku bercerita mimpiku hari itu
bertekad, kan menuju Jakarta.

sendiri ke dalam gelap gulita kamarku
waktu kubuka pintu lemari es tapi
akupun merasa tak berguna
tak tahu berapa kali ku menangis?

ku harus berusaha
sukai diri sendiri dan pilihan masa depan
meskipun aku khawatir
akan keluarga dan temanpun tapi tlah janji

dengan kota ini
memberiku harapan harapan yang egois
mimpi mimpiku yang menumpuk, mengingatkanku
bagaikan
abu merapi"

its just sounds so epic in my mind.

and Feni should sings miyuki's warukii/ mayuyus otona jelly beans. or anything cute.

not really sure about the 3rd placer. not too familiar with her persona.
maybe soredemo suki dayo? or matsumura kaori's matsumurabu, because it the songs that being sung by the underdogs, maybe it will fit her.


we need to have more catchy songs from akb performed before bnk does it. like it or not i was kinda bitter they does Warukii (myujikii) first.
kinda felt like as a big sister jkt48 was abit left behind.

 

isn't top 3 songs will be original?

 

@rmn89 they will perform the song for the first time at the anniversary concert this month and the single will be released in February next year and the top 3 will have an original songs too

 

so is the top winner will always get a solo song no matter what? Only Feni and Amel (2nd and 3rd) has the choice of forming a duo/team with other members?

 

No, last year the gift is actually to create a unit or do a solo, Yupi just decided to go solo. I think the gift this year is also the same

 

This is a cute short cover! Who are the guys? (I am so behind. T_T)

 

I think

He's a fans and a youtuber I think, Teacher-teacher looks easy but the challenge in the move is to look coquettish while doing the dance.

 

Shani will represent JKT48 in World Senbatsu for at Kohaku.

Kohaku is a New Years Eve TV program in Japan. Yesterday AKB said that they would do a special World Senbatsu this year for it.

 

Some fans was expecting Beby rather than Shani because the remaining KFC Senbatsu members are Beby and Ayen... I expected Beby and Ayen too, but that's no problem if management choose Shani...
