Minegishi Minami (Miichan) / 1st Generation

Miichan showed of her beatbox skills again in UTAGE! .... and it was the opening theme for Neon Genesis Evangelion .... so it was epic!
(hey I like Evangelion .... even if it has a crapsack ending and you keep yelling at the screen "Shinji!!! snap out of it ... man up!!! )

there is a link to the video on twitter .... I'll try to find it

well, don't have a twitter link, so a Facebook link must suffice for now:
https://www.facebook.com/david.bush.14473/videos/10157065227561614/
ok, bilibili link to the whole show, start is around the 6 minute mark:
https://www.bilibili.com/video/av35648823

Miichan really got into the beat box vibe ... by almost shoving TEE to the side, as if she as saying "move over, *I* am the beatboxer here!", I guess there's still some Shaku left in her ...

btw, you would expect them to wear an earpiece with a click track, but neither TEE nor Miichan seemed to wear one and they were obviously setting the pace as they were the rhythm section.

furthermore, main vocal were by Takahashi Yoko, the original vocalist for 残酷な天使のテーゼ ('Zankoku na tenshi no tēze')

Miichan, there is no reason to be jealous! we are happy to be your fans as well!

 

well, if 12th place has 16 votes ..... it's not really relevant is it, if you compare it to the total fanbase

but, its all those polls the question always is ... do people vote for someone because they really think that person has the attributes needed to rank, or is it because it's the member they root for.
(and for the answer, look at ForrestFullers polls ..... I think that if there was a poll "Longest serving member" ... the usual suspects (i.e. the most popular members) would rank high )
I should add, I don't mind those polls, but I don't participate as I'm often not able to make an objective judgement

 

Rehearsals have started for the theater production next year:

With friends. As far as I can tell from one of the videos, they were at a festival, Tori no Ichi (酉の市). (from the instastory of the mystery person on the right )

@sscrla, you funny person ..... mystery person .... right!


it's Yuko-san !
(but I must admit ... I didn't recognise her from the first pic)


anyway, I'm lazy, so I'm dumping no3b stuff here .... even if it's nyan-nyan who's modelling the merchandise


btw, that n03b logo is rather clever

 

Yeay! .... Miichan!!

お誕生日おめでとうございます。



Senpai, please stick around a bit longer .... ください！
