Kojima Mako (Kojimako) / 14th Generation

I don't mind another version, don't take me wrong. Things that annoyed me about this translation (and its original Twitter) is that it contains ALL images in the magazine. And this one was short enough and recent enough so that I actually read through to cross-check my translation.

 

From a discussion in the rules thread:

"Magazine scans are probably the closest we'll ever come to allowing stuff that usually costs money on our site. Mooks/photobooks - definitely no to any zip or rar files containing scans of the entire book, but if you're posting like the Mayuyu page of the Mizugi Surprise into her gallery, sure, we'll allow that."

Since you are not scanning an entire magazine (it is just four pages) and are adding the translation, I consider this acceptable (comparable to the Mizugi Surprise page of a single member).

P.S. It is also legal to post screen caps of instastories, showing her new haircut (trim really).

 

Just find this thing interesting. Ishihara-P was the producer of AKB48 SHOW!. Right now, I firmly believe he is Kojimako Oshi. This is not the first time he reply to member about Kojimako. (He also reply about Naachan, Yuihan, Mion, etc, to some extent, but I saw he reply about Mako the most frequent). He also posted most of the very good pictures on her graduation announcement day.

And that is not counting in the fact that Team K is the only new team that has 2 of their stage song feature on AKB48 SHOW! He was also responsible pushing for Namida no Hyoumen Chouryoku on AKB48 SHOW! Not sure if I translated his blog post back then on here, but he basically said that Mako is his favourite dancer in AKB48, and Naachan the best singing voice.

I thought he became Tano Oshi? The high-profile Kojimako Oshi was Aokii of Flash Magazine. (Likely the most high profile oshihen ever, from Milky to Kojimako)

 

AKB48 SHOW! has posted a video of deleted scenes from the trip to the middle school graduation and closing on their website. You have to watch there.

"Specially released scenes that could not be delivered in OA!"

Also, the show blog has lots of pictures from the final show (and shooting of).

ooooo...... new チｰム ４ ... imho that might just be the best team ever!

(and they should have put Tano-chan into it ... she fits in pretty well

otoh .. maybe the competition with Miichan might have spilled over outside of AKBingo
with the competition coming from Miichan I think )

 

Nah, she will be in Korea on the beginning of April, not starting in April.

 

She said it's related to her new work, though.

She seemed to be hinting that the announcement is very, very close. There might possibly be some announcement in today's K stage. But it's Kanabun seitansai and traditionally you don't steal the scene. So in the end I don't really know what is going to happen lol.

 

Haruu seems to be trying Mako's nail place.

"shimadadesu_official Verified
Mako @makochan_2525
To introduce to @akane.4.8 It's just a
chance to
match Spring nails to Mako."

You can see Mako's nails at akane.4.8's instagram (I hadn't paid attention to where she did her nails before; it's at Function Nails).

So which nails belong to Mako and which to Haruu? Both are using pink for spring.




I think the top gives it away.

Update:
She performed in the theater with Team K and posted that she will miss the theater (plus a picture with Kanabun) and added a countdown:
"45 days until graduation"

Here is Jiwara Days (thanks to Tk-Tonkla in the single thread)

Update: Sorry, dead links

 

The members appearing with Mako during the segment with her graduation ceremony on the 27th.

Note that Juri isn't there; perhaps she will already be in Korea.
