Iwata Karen (Karen) / 12th Generation

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

No love for Karen here??

I'm here to pledge my allegiance to Karen . She's my favorite kenkyuusei now. This is what I said about her after I watched a team 4 LOD two days ago

She might be a bit too young to promote now but I think she can do it. She has subbed for Yukirin, Tomochin, Kasai and those are not small boots to fill. And as far as I've seen she has done a very good job in it too. I just really hope she ends up in team 4 cause she's one of the few KKS who would really make that team stronger.

Check out her Google+ profile, she updates a lot.

 

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

^ She's actually my fave KKS as well! She can sing and dance very well... And her performance on seifuku resistance was really nice

 

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

Unsurprisingly she is awesome in 'Candy' too

Cute how her outfit is too big for her.

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

She's pretty much awesome in everything she does

I think she's my KKS oshimen for sure [blush]

 

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

^ Good we need more Karen support here! I changed my avatar.

She was perfect in the new ship by the way



I think she gave some chocolate to Harukyan for Valentines day

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

She's gonna be immense once she gets into one of the teams!! She pretty much does well in whatever she's asked to do!! Strange how there isn't too much support for her here though

 

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

^ I think so too. Maybe her role in that upcoming anime will get her some more support

anyway here are some/all Karen videos

Sorry.

 

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

^dude??!! Seriously not cool!!

 

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

From @akb48journal : Nakayan & Iwata Karen will participate in support song made for Touhoku earthquake, "Hana wa Saku". http://bit.ly/zPX4Hr

 

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

Iwata Karen just explodes with talent. So does Tano Yuka. Both are the talented duo of the current KKS crop. As long as Kawaei Rina's performance isn't up to par with Karen's, I'd love to see if she gets promoted.

 

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

I just watched her videos, and she is my new KKS oshimen!

And here's a picture of this little rockstar

 

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

It's hard not to notice her when "someone" continues to pimp her every chance he gets on S48, Twitter, and Tumblr.

While I don't know this girl very much, from what I've seen .. I do like her personality. She does seem like the nice, pure, and innocent type that I like.

Looking forward to her VA for AKB0048's main character.

 

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

Okay some quick updates.

Karen performed in K6 on the 2nd of March

[vimeo]http://vimeo.com/37979978[/vimeo]

after which she subtly expressed her preference for team k > https://plus.google.com/104469157599705660710/posts/NeSaoAz3jQq

She has performed with team K a lot recently as she subs for tomochin and she misses a lot of shows due to other activities. Team K would be great for her, the olders girls are really good their style might suit her. I'm still hoping she might make team 4 but I'm not sure if it's the best option for her. Oh well they're not promoting anyone at the moment so she could be stuck as kks for years to come.

More great news is that the 4 dvd box of the "Documentary of AKB48 - Show Must Go On" will include an interview with her!

 

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

I really want her to be promoted to team K, but it will mean that she takes over yonechan's place in kiseki wa maniawanai and I don't want that I wanna see her in seifuku resistance, sry tomochin

 

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

^agree. Seifuku is a great unit for her and I don't want to see her in those horrible pants in Kiseki. I've given up any hope that she will join team 4 to be honest. It would be a dream come true but I think they're saving up this generation to replace some of the bigger names in the letter teams. Oh well there's always a chance. She was in K6 again on the 6th and was even better this time.

[vimeo]http://vimeo.com/38125157[/vimeo]

She joined the light music club yesterday. At first she wasn't sure how to join the club but people on google+ explained it to her . I'm sure Yui will be a great president and will lead them to their goal of making a CD.

Anyway I found some video's of her before she joined AKB.

^ these two creep me out a bit I dont know why but it shows she was busy even even before AKB

^ No idea what this is but it's people with a lot op Apple products and some kids in weird costumes.

Re: Iwata Karen / 12th Generation

^ I don't know either but perhaps if we ask HoneyRoastedPeanuts politely enough, maybe he could help us...
