[GENERAL] The NGT48 Thread

Ogiyuka...her reactions and emotions always so annoying me...

Happy for Ayakani

 

So, it looks like that at today's handshake event they had these imaginary job application forms by the members on display at the venue. It should be said some of the members played it pretty straight, listing their actual resume on one side and their prospects on the other side just with a bit of humor in between, while others preferred to play on the in-jokes with crazy results.

I found this photo collection on Twitter (one of the few which is both complete and has the writing on it readable), so I'm thinking of sharing it here for those who want to take a look (translations available on request).

Sure, I was actually getting those translations ready since I already saw someone wondering what they said. Let me post a better shot of the pages too.

Become mayor in 2019?! B-b-b-but that'd mean we only have a year left with Minachan... ;-----; WAAAH! OH! indeed..


I do believe Mahohon's is completely true though. Haven't we all been abducted by Santa Claus anyway? :^) what a goofball ♡

(oh and thank you SO MUCH for translating, you're the best!)

Maho's story reveals some unusual family connections

Spoiler: And a record has been tied!

Thank you so much for translating!!! I laughed a lot lol
Minami is still angry she's short, huh? LKASDJOGI And "Riko is born", that sure is a important date for maho XD

 

Katomina wanting to be Niigata’s Mayor might be her saying she wants to be NGT48 captain!

Mahohon was too real, I wish she didn’t take this so seriously.

I can’t wait for the rest thank you @Cisalpine88 for always translating these for us!

 

Kato did say it in front of the current Mayor that she aims to be mayor of Niigata.

 

As if she was that good with elections.

 

Just asking nicely; Can you please keep the negativity in the trashyards that are literally every thread outside of the NGT subforum? Thanks in advance~
We're all about love, rainbows, happiness, little birds, and honeybees here~

 

You'd find how the NGT48 members relate with each other is sometimes rubbed off on many posters here. Every members may not be best of friends with everyone but they treat each member as indispensable. How the 2 group songs made it that each member had a part to play and contribute.

Didn't someone say that NGT48 basically used and extended on the management methods of team 8.

Yes, I do find at least in the NGT48 sub forums our postings have been mostly positive.

 

Niigatan icebears and penguins then

I'm here for Mahohon being a Potterhead though (or a Little Witch Academia fan at least).

 

Then just make a fun comment about Mahohon's wizard adventures instead of just taking your stab at innocent Katomina who already suffers from enough anti-shit.
It's super simple. Not that hard. We're having enough negativity in the world already. Make peace, not war.

 

Giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirl, take it easy.
I doubt Katomina is gonna have a breakdown because I wrote a joke about her.

Here's hoping she ranks in senbatsu this year tho.

 

Give Katomina chance to center 4th single. NGT48 better never have permanent center & any member can become a center if they have a good achievement. Ogiyuka can center 5th single. 2 singles evey year?
