Perhaps it's because Hinatan is still in school, and it would be hard to constantly pull her out with it being senior year. If I had it my way, Ogiyuka and Rika would be in AKB's senbatsu while Hinatan centers NGT48, and Okappa continues to center the group in AKB's b-side.
Thats a very good point.. Maybe it would be like that for now. But, if she continues making senbatsu for next year's sousenkyo, there will be no reason for not give her a spot in regular senbatsu singles. Unless mngmt wants to troll her just like what they did to Amina Dasu and Tomu. Anyways, Hinatan is very cute and beautiful, very likeable.. It makes me confuse whether to choose her or Ogiyuka as favorite in NGT. I think maybe I dont have to choose, right?!
http://navyadvancement.tpub.com/14148/css/Chain-Of-Command-31.htm --- I'm myself forgetting at times that Hinata is the only high school girl in top16. Undergirls have five more, but no junior high, among whose highest is Satone at 47th... Edit: actually Satone seems to be the only one ranking younger than 15.
I hope we don't have to wait until next SSK. Maybe if Hinatan keeps her strong HS game on, management will yield. Anyways, perhaps Hinatan got something good in AKB's b-side? It's AKB's 50th single and Mayuyu's final single, she might get something better in b-side than the back row of a 28n senbatsu. I've seen some Japanese fans worry that, with NGT48 being managed by SKE's management, they might try to make Hinatan into Suda 2.0 As you all said, Hinatan is still young, same age as HKT48's Matsuoka Hana, so hopefully it won't turn out that way.
This is so cute! Rika and Renapon aren't the only one worried about Hinatan after AKB48 50th single's senbatsu announcement. Noepii (31m 50s) Mod edit: removed dead video link and Okappa (click to enlarge) Moeka also posted on her photolog This is why I love NGT48
NGT48 no Niigata Friendo (Episode 36) (Moeka, Hinatan, Rittan) http://48videodouga.net/index.php?poste=5482
I really like this Hinatan's selfie with flash by Katomina (Click on the thumbnails to see the full images)
"Junjo Yoroshiku" next week on AKB48 SHOW! They'll perform wearing the flight attendant costumes, so I don't need to wait until next RH to see it.
Finally!!!!! They filmed it weeks ago!! I can't wait Meanwhile, here's also a recently released rice CM starring Hinatan It's from the official youtube channel of Niigata prefecture so you don't need to worry about youtube restrictions Mod edit: removed dead video link
Here comes the giant onigiri.. I wonder if it was entirely made from rice.. Since it seems lighter at the CM's video.. (Hinatan can pick it up easily..)
Beautiful CM with great scenery! And Hinatan is so cute in those outfits! I was wondering, did she drive the mini truck to that place? Because I didn't see any other driver nearby. https://twitter.com/official_NGT48/status/915945149850566661
The rice CM is almost 30K views It's very cute and it really suits Hinatan. So many exciting things happening recently. The CM, AKB48Show performance of Junjo Yurushiku, the SSK senbatsu concert, NGT48's 2nd single, and hopefully something to look forwards to in AKB48's 50th single's b-side.
^ That is like, uncanny valley weird... esp fake Yuko (her head is like Yuko's +1.5x) and fake Acchan, who looks kinda like STU's Otani Marina
