Yep, but at least things like Majisuka Gakuen main protagonist, anniversary single and 'centership' etc will be for an AKB pure-blood member.

 

Team A: Yamane Suzuha, Shoji Nagisa, Sato Minami, Michieda Saki
Team K: Nagatomo Ayami
Team B: Harima Nanami, Umemoto Izumi
Team 4: Kurosu Haruka, Homma Mai

Which makes me confused, why does new Team A have 3 members less than other teams, even though they have plenty of KKS bound to them? Maybe they're planning for mass graduations in other teams and that's why they already promoted so many members

 

This shuffle probably stay 3 years minimum I think and there are some names in Team A bound to graduate within this time. Plus dont forget we still got D3 lol

 

damn a lot of surprises
didn't expect Komi to be captain(i think she'll do great after seeing her documentary last year)
happy that my two oshis are on the same team and also glad that Satoppi,Seichan and Omegu are on team B
yuiyui vs miion

but hey
TEAM SONGS YAY

 

With Okabe Rin become new Team A Captain, it looks like she will become a regular senbatsu for sure. But Komiharu become Team K Captain??Even though I like her, i expected TanoTomu or Mogi to be the new captain. Takahashi Team B and Murayama Team 4 are the teams I will support in the future.

 

Yeah, I know some people are going to graduate, regardless of the team. But if you compare all the new teams, all the teams have 25 members except Team A has only 22. Seems kind of suspicious... Like why didn't they promote some more KKS to Team A and make it 25 members like the other ones? Or split members more evenly and make all teams 24 members? Of course, I think 22 members in a team is more than enough, I just thought it's odd why only Team A is different.

 

Guys, they can't tell 47 members to simply move to Tokyo. They wouldn't do new auditions if they were preparing to dissolve it. They still have their own shows. To me this is nothing more than filling the gaps with AKB members while they still have issues with the teams.

And I always said that the future soukantoku is Berin.

 

Did Takahiro say when this change will take effect ?
Also I'm hoping again for the long overdues new Team stages.

It's really what the teams are in need, new shows, so they can display their current identity.
Just as an exemple, Team K performed once again Korogaru ichi ni nare during the anniversary stage; while the song still represent Team K spirit, can the current girl still live whith the original members legacy ?
Isn't it time to bring them something fresher that doesn't contantly reminds the fans of an era which is long gone by now ?

 

The Ibaraki Connection slowly taking over...

I'm actually quite OK with the shuffle. It was about time! Thought they were going to wait until the new year to do so
Fresh blood for a new era maybe

 

Anyone has a recording of the shuffle?

Wow all of kenin member back to their original group.

 

I was shocked too. Apologies to my oshi, but if I had to choose between promoting her or Zunchan, the choice would be clear… Zunchan was “ready” pretty much from day one. Heck, from audition.

I guess the HS performance is slower than they expected? Who knows

 

Spring.

 

looks like the muto sisters are in the same team now

 

I think they will be team's ace. But maybe Mukaichi Mion in Team A too.
