[GENERAL] The Sakurazaka46 / Keyakizaka46 Thread

They dont necessarily have to have more airtime cause not everything from hormones has to be reinterpreted.

Hormones covered alot of basic, as well as extreme, problens of teenagers both in thailand and anywhere in the world. So some of those problems can also be represented in japan.

A fight with personal demons, public demons, the whole shebang

A whole risaxneru storyline would be cute and it could just wholly be cute. Heck we could even throw in a shida to amp the angst

 

I just thought the drama could explore as deep as hormones did. But, yeah, not everything have to be put in keyaki's version.

Mona, a playboy, falling in love with neru weirdness and trying to snatch neru from risa. Mona and risa are rival, not a couple like most fans fantasy. Bring it on!!!

Though i wish we could explore those deep problems, some of those problems just wont work considering the keyaki's age range. Deep psychological problem is one thing, rebellious teenager another, tho both are good tropes in storytelling.

Since neru is already in love with manaki, i dont see why not! Explains neru's indifference to risa HAHAHAHA

 

The "no friends" was supposed to be more of an ironic joke based on her handshake sales

If I were to think seriously about what role she could play, it would be interest to give her a more complex problem, because she has the best acting ability among the members.

 

Funny enough the problem was adressed in this week's Keyakake lol. Nijika's mom was worried that she does not have any friend because most of her blog images are herself lol.

 

The timing was just perfect for this topic.

 

Keyakizaka is ＃4 in EX 大衆 magazine's ticket value ranking (and Nogizaka is in first place!)! the ranking is includes the value of live concert tickets on resale services like auctions and stuff. apparently Keyaki concert tickets (for their one man live) went for an average of 34,266 yen (around $300) a ticket.

 

OMG $300? That's mind-blowing...

 

That is insane.
Japanese spending on entertainment never stopps to amaze me.
300 for a concert ticket, hundreds or even thousands for Handshake tickets, etc.
Or anime fans buying blu rays or figures for hundreds of dollars.

 

But it's cool how much they are willing to spend to support their favourite artist / series... Thought obsessions was never a good thing

 

Morning Musume must be like the Porsche of idol groups.

"Next on Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous we'll see an infinity edge swimming pool, a lacquered ebony dining room table, a Porsche 911 Spyder, and TWO MORNING MUSUME TICKETS!"

 

Remember the Japanese youtuber who bought A LOT of Futari Seison CDs to get the full set of pictures??

Well, here's the aftermath of that:

if the video does not show watch the video here

 

@Crossheart -- Lol. Good video. The fast-talking entrepreneur did at least get a bit more than he paid, didn't he?

I was just reading that a fashion college in Shibuya ("Bunka Fashion College") says its graduates did several of the outfits for Kouhaku, and in particular that the outfits for both Nogizaka and Keyakizaka were designed by Horiuchi Kimika, who works as a stylist for a company called Alcatrock. That appears to be at least in part a vintage clothing enterprise, so perhaps she worked with Sony's in-house people to put together the outfits.

The images on the college's websites are pretty enjoyable. Some of them reminded me of the fashion high school in the wonderful manga/anime (also film and drama) Paradise Kiss (manga by Yazawa Ai, who did NANA). That story is on my mind because people keep being called "Caroline," I think after the nickname of the fashion-model high-schooler heroine. I think Neru may have been thinking of that when she called the sleeping Sugai "Caroline."

Otona wa...???

 

who was #1?

 

I think 48group should do like Arashi and put facial recognition on ticket. This 100% inflation price on ticket only profit to opportunist who aren't even fan to begin with.

 

Found this awesome Battle Royale fanart of Keyaki, drawn by @cowgirl_uri as he/she got inspired by the BRODY magazine shots (The girls posing with weapon)
