I don't remember the other generations' auditions getting the same amount of advertising as this one. I either forgot or it never happened. This is gonna be something else...

 

yess it is

this is the first time, IIRC. They put so much effort to promote their new gen audition,
This audition is not just for nogi or kanji or hira, its combination of the 3.
so yes its like a one big audition, where you can choose to which ZAKA that you want to join. you got 3 choices at the same time...

am i correct?

 

I believe so. It's not a typical move to promote idol group auditions like this in Japan IMO.

Spoiler

miss you kuroishi

 

Neither of these videos are available for me to watch because they're geoblocked! Damn you Sony

Can anyone extract all these videos and save it to, say, Google Drive? Another reason why at times I don't like YouTube (not to mention all the other shenanigans other than geoblocking/YouTube Red (Premium)). (>_<)

Businessmen vs. aliens episode 8 was easily my favorite (nanase kawaii)

 

I've had good luck with gen.youtube.com. it won't always give you HD but at least you can watch it with download options

 

Doesn't work for the first, fourth and fifth videos. Had good luck on the Nogizaka ones, it's the Keyaki ones that I'm having trouble with. (Similar results with saveitoffline. Nevertheless Sony is one of a couple - along with Victor - I tend to 'blacklist,' save for a few exceptions that I'll occasionally allow, because of YouTube region blocking, both at least YouTube Red-level, and Sony very notorious for restricting videos to Japan only. But then again, these auditions are Japanese only, right?)

 

Yeah I see what you mean. I'm getting no right click on mobile. I'll see what I can do on desktop tomorrow. This is highly irregular

 

I've uploaded them to Google Drive. The Nogi ones weren't region locked for me here in the UK but they're in there too.

So I just saw a post in their official FB Page. Apparently Manatsu and Matsumura are learning Chinese "in order to communicate with fans better".

Am I missing something here? Are they going to do a tour in mainland China or something? The class is pretty recent since they are wearing Synchro's uniforms.

FB-Link for those who can see the page : https://www.facebook.com/nogizaka46/posts/1981577668579151

 

IIRC they're going to do another Asia tour in Shanghai though the management hasn't made it public yet.
