    Juri: ehhh, I wonder...
    Mako: You love me anyways right?
    Juri: Wish? Hmm, don't give Juri any more trouble would be nice. (Audience claps their hands)

    Guys I am so happy! Mako-chan pointed out my comment on showroom.

    I don't usually comment anything because I find it a bit rude just to spam things and my Japanese isn't really at the level where I can say anything constructive.

    Mako-chan was reading aloud from an English Language learning book so I commented "Good English Mako-chan! :)" in English.

    Then as she was reading the comments she said "あ,英語のコメント (ah, there is an English comment), then read the comment back. I'm happy since this is the first time this has properly happened on showroom.

    Here is the video of the showroom, my comment is at 1 hour, 2 minutes if you are interested.


    if the video does not show watch the video here

    @OshimaYuko That's awesome! I would love it if she did more english in future showrooms. I loved the video where she "interviews" Riichan in english, haha so funny!

    Now I have 2 showrooms to catch up on later.

    I am not sure, but I got the feeling that she didn't understand that it was a compliment. When someone compliments me on my Chinese, I will either say 謝謝 or thank you. While I wouldn't expect her to give it her best Acchan at the end of Majisuka Rock 'n' Roll [SANKYUU!], I was surprised she didn't respond with ありがとう.

    P.S. I did hear her singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star when listening live.

    I thought that a bit too. At the least the thought was there, even if she didn't understand it fully.

    I'm disappointed too :(

    But she's still high in undergirls and she didn't seem upset with the result which is good.

    *edit - Just saw her on the showroom with yukirin and she definitely seems more than happy with her result (i'm guessing it was better than she expected considering some recent pictures)

    I have to say, I'm really dissapointed with how the Japanese fan base treated her so called 'scandal', that was really nothing at all. Hopefully us international fans can score more votes next year, to push her in to senbatsu.

    Here is a translation of her speech.

    Thank you very much for everyone who voted. This is Mako Kojima of AKB48. The selection wall is thick. Well, I realize that I have already hit the wall. However, is not it? There is a team of soccer Atletico Madrid that I admire and there is a manager of that director, Mr. Shimeone, but that person is "just being very difficult, why can not we say impossible?" I do not know. "There is a word that there is absolutely no possibility even among difficulties, but that's a good word. I believe that word and it's been five years since I entered AKB 48, but there are still things I want to do and dreams that I do not yet realize are like mountains. I am confident that I will continue to fulfill with everyone of the fans in the future, I will be able to fulfill it with my motivation, energy and fans' I believe that I would like to do my best by believing it. So I wish I could color my life together. Thank you very much.

    P.S. I was happy that she held her head high and smiled. She is someone well worth supporting.

    Thank you for the translation.

    I was also happy to see how she reacted, she may have dropped a few places from last year, but she was all smiles and no tears.

    I'm pretty disappointed about Mako's position in all honesty.

    This SSK seems to have been a bit random this year in terms of results. All of the random NGT girls ranking high and some others coming out of nowhere. I think this crossed with the "scandal" which hit her at a really important time affected the result.

    It's pretty selfish, but some solace comes from Mion and a few others not ranking high as well, as that means it wasn't just Mako-chan who lost votes/position.

    I was (and still am but less) really worried about Mako-chan graduating if she didn't reach the senbatsu this year. Especially with a number of big hitters graduating or not competing compared to last year. But seeing her reaction and speech has given me a bit of relief, at least for the moment.
