    well, colour me flabbergasted ....
    I don't think anybody really expected this, even if Takamina and Nyan-nyan said they wanted to do something for the anniversary, because we all know they are really busy with their new careers.
    It's kinda funny that Takamina and Nyan-nyan say they will have to work hard remembering the choreographies and songs ..... and Miichan kinda goes like, ow, cool, I can slack off for a change and be the benjamin again :D

    This might well be the last time no3b will perform life ever, if I was in Japan, if for sure wouldn't want to miss this.

    in news I wasn't expecting today: No3b re-appearing lol. They better be gearing up to release that final album like the rest of the sub-units have done.
    Omg maybe Minami might announce her graduation at the concert? lol.

    That is so *not* funny to be honest :(


    anyway, it's official: (video with our illustrious trio announcing the event in the tweet on Mama&Son's feed)
    https://twitter.com/ms_staff/status/1050552405056663552

    and more info on the Mama&Son site
    http://mamaandson.jp/news/2018/10/12/1012更新【no3b】一夜限りの10周年ライブイベント開催!/

    So it seems to be a mainly Mama&Son (Production Ogi) event and not so much an AKS event.

    I can see why you got dislikes on that, especially considering this being the Miichan thread.

    But I'll be honest: that was my first thought too. In fact, this might be the perfect time to do it. I'm expecting a few more announcements from any remaining gens 1-8 this year, tbh.

    No hate intended. Just a humble realist.

    Well, I can only point out that first post in the 'who do you expect to announce graduation next" thread (which now is the "graduation announcements" thread), back in 2013 started with the expectation that either Miichan or Tomochin would be next.
    (and Tomochin by that time already had graduated)

    I understand realism ... (and I'll just be in denial :) ) ... Yeah, Miichan will graduate eventually, will it be this year ... next year or later? ... only Miichan knows, and maybe she doesn't even know just yet.
    For me I don't want neither Miicchan nor Shiichan to graduate just yet. Not as long as they are enjoying it.

    btw, it was just the 'lol' that triggered my 'dislike'

    I am very excited about this event and I'm praying there will be a way us international fans will get to see some of it!!! This recreation of their album thumbnail as their promo photo makes me very nostalgic.

    Btw .... they looked really happy in the video ... it looks like they are really looking forward to performing together again ....
    (and notice the matching outfits :) .... I guess Nyan-nyan went like ... Takamina ... you wear this ... Miichan .. you wear that! :D )

    Every idol leaves. Miichan graduating is just a running joke at this point lol. She's been here since the beginning she deserves some sort of special plaque in AKB's theater for being an idol this long.

    that's something I adore about her tho. She just seems to be enjoying herself even tho a good chunk of her close friends have left already. That's pretty amazing. i wonder if management can give her a job like their did with Berryz Kobo when they disbanded so she's still helping out.

    one of my first loves from AKB was when I heard "Answer" by No3b. I really look forward to seeing them perform that song like 7 years after it's release date (albeit, I imagine the DVD won't be released till Jan/Feb 2019 so it'll be like 8 years lol).

    I don't think Miichan has been as active on any social media as she is on TikTok lately?

    https://t.tiktok.com/i18n/share/vid...s&tt_from=twitter&user_id=6583689225362522113

    That smile :)

    We've talked about this before, her demotion to Kenkyuusei was in this regards a blessing in disguise.
    But even before that she was what she self called 'the middle manager' in the 'ranking high and low' episode of AKBingo, because she was the same age of the girls much later generations she was able to connect to those up and coming girls while the girls in the original gens graduated.
    But being lumped in with the kenkyuusei, that enabled her to bridge even more generations and make friends.
    And apart from that, Miichan has always had the ability to make friends easily anyway.



    ow, and another TikTok video.... it's no3b :) :

    Part of me thinks these girls are too old to be using tiktok and another part thinks their videos are quite fun to watch lol especially the no3b videos made me happy. I just miss them interact

    Sorry I'm a terrible Miichan fan, I wrote about that in the Shiichan thread earlier, it seems connected/related to the 'drain the pond' shows they did and Shiichan is still doing .... Even have to admit I said I would like Shiichan to centre :/
    Minasan! Gomenasai! :(

    (but I really would like to have Shiichan a prominent place, ok, let's settle for a double centre with Miichan ;) )

    The good thing is that it is in all the versions :)

    (ow and watching the KFC performance earlier I would have expected Yokohama Yui to be in this)

    They didn't double anyone on this single except for Oda Erina and those who are in the AiKaBu Senbatsu (not management selected), which is why you don't see Yokoyama Yui.

    I suspected as much, just wondered, as she centred KFC in the pond :)



    Well, even in that short clip we can see there has nothing changed in their interactions ....
    Miichan goofing ... Takamina joining in wholeheartedly .... Nyan-nyan ... well, seeming a bit embarrassed by her younger co-members ... but enjoying it all the same :)

    btw, there is a second take ... look at those smiles at the end :)

    OK, right now TikTok is the gift that keeps on giving, is it halloween??

    o
    k, stumbled upon an old episode of Utage, Miichan, Yukirin, Yasuda Kei and Ogasawara Mayu performing the, what we call in the Netherlands the, "sawn in two orphan girl" magic trick :)
    it start around the 16 minute mark

    Ok, that’s weird, miichan’s TikTok account is gone?

    Or is it just me?
    O, never mind ... it must be what we call an "undocumented feature", the TikTok app says I'm following no one .... an when I go tot my profile ... I'm following Miichan :)

    these?

    I guess it's what's in Miichan's TikTok ?
    http://vm.tiktok.com/JRhptJ/
    Kojimako, Shiichan, Tomochin and Miichan ?

    ow, wait ... other version
    http://vm.tiktok.com/JRBdVs/
    This is the one with Yukirin

    Shiichan shared another video in her Instagram as well .... Tomochin in AKB costume? .... what gives? :)
    (ow, that one had Shiichan, Tomochin, Yukirin, Miichan and Myao)

    btw ... if you have the TikTok app you can save the videos (it's an option under 'share', at least it is on iOS)
