If I understand right, every 48G album had a title song. On the announcement video there was a lineup of 20 members shown, who probably equal the senbatsu lineup.
Even tho Yuzu had the most beautiful 2023 profile picture, she is not shows on the lineup.
What's that kind of a joke?
Most talented, most adorable, most beautiful, most joyful & most popular NMB48 member (at least second after Nagisa in the last category) & always robbed from senbatsu + always neglected by management?

Maybe the staff is just jelous of her beauty, there's no other explanation I could find.

And even if we assume, she actually ranked 19th in last year's senbatsu election without rigging, she should have made it into this lineup consisting of 20 members. But someone in NMB48's main management wing is clearly against her.

Who do we see instead? Nakano Mirai at the left wing? Is it her? Seriously?
And is it Shiyomin at the left?

Where do these girls come from? To me it sounds like "we would push anyone over Yuzu."
If Yoshiko & Yuriyan Retriever would have been NMB48 members, they would also rather be chosen for senbastu, than the poor cute Yuzu.
And that's a fact, Azuma Yuki who is kind of a lookalike to them was picked twice over Yuzu. & Kushino Rina who looks also very similar to them, was also picked three times, while Yuzu being picked only once & waiting for her placement in the placement her entire lifetime.

I'm such an extreme anger, I can't describe the intensity of my frustration.

 

It's Sakata Misaki.
Actually this photo I saw long time ago (maybe 1 or 2 months ago) so I don't think it is senbatsu for 4th album. Let's wait.

 

Yup, it's the photo they pulled when they anounced their label change to Universal, back on november 3rd.
Yuzuha was barely back from hiatus at the time of the anouncement.
It's possible she was still off when they shot the photo.

btw, if corona keeps messing around like last weeks, anyone may have a chance at senabtsu

 

I have a feeling that the a-side will be centered by Kojirin. I hope they'll have a good amount of new songs in the album! I guess they'll do team songs? My wish is to have songs for the latest generations, like one song for 7th gen, one for 8th gen, maybe one for 9th gen if they're ready. the other gens don't have a lot of members, so... maybe they could group 2nd-6th gens together and D2-D3 together or something. I doubt this will happen but I would love it if they do this especially since I like 8th gen and 7th gen ;w;

Oh and I hope they can have more than one MV too. I don't expect too much but it would be great if they have like... 3 or 4.

Random but the member I personally wish to see center is actually Sakatan (8th gen), but I think it's more likely that she will center for the next single!

 

Fearing they give us the short end of the stick Only 3 new songs and one MV. Well but there's hope (I have )

 

MIKANA! MIKANA! MIKANA! MIKANA! MIKANA! MIKANA! MIKANA! MIKANA! MIKANA! MIKANA! MIKANA!

 

Senbatsu:

Team N: Izumi Ayano, Kato Yuuka, Sakata Misaki (1st time), Sadano Haruka, Shibuya Nagisa, Shinzawa Nao, Yamamoto Mikana (CENTER)
Team M: Abe Wakana, Kawakami Chihiro, Shiotsuki Keito, Jonishi Rei, Hara Karen, Maeda Reiko, Deguchi Yuina (1st time)
Team BII: Sumino Wakana
http://news.nmb48.com/release/20230116/210052.html

Sakatan 1st senbatsu as expected, I hope she would get a center this album with 8th gen’s song or Team N’s song. Karen is back to senbatsu and Zion is the only left out from lastest single. I know management has chosen Sakatan and Keito as the next center of NMB but Zion is still very young and her potential is no joke, I wonder why staff always mistreat her?

 

Everyone over Yuzu theory approved.

 

Congrats to Mikana for the center!!! I'm really happy for her, I wanted her to be center although I was thinking she would center a single (I always feel like albums get less promotions than singles? I don't know if it's still the case now or if it's more or less the same thing as singles lol). This is a good decision considering her popularity (especially on social medias), and she has a good style and good looks, I'm curious about what kind of song and dance it will be, excited for this (judging from the preview picture, it looks kinda mature/dark/feminine!)

and also!!! Congrats to Sakatan for the first senbatsu I expected it but I'm so happy to see it. She debuted just one year ago and she already achieved a lot. She deserves it, she's so talented and sweet and funny and everything and it looks like she has a pretty good position which makes me even happier ;w;

Congrats to everyone else for making senbatsu too. I'm looking forward to this album, and like I said before, I hope it has as many MVs as possible! and also good promotions in general.

I really wish 8th gen could get a song... and yes it could be centered by Sakatan, that could be her first center song! For Team N, if they do have a song, I wonder if they would go with Sakatan (she centered the Team N stage so it's possible) or if they would give it to Kojirin (she already centered the Team N song in the previous single).

I think it might have to do with her age, because she's too young? For the previous single, she was voted by fans to be in senbatsu, but it was kind of a waste because she was too young and missed the music show promotions... so it's probably better to pick members who are old enough to do the activities... Maybe she will be back to senbatsu in future singles.

 

Mikana center and Yuina first senbatsu?!?!?! I'm so happy oh my god!!!

 

I'm really happy for Mikana center! I'm also happy for Sakatan but I would love to see Wada Miyu in Senbatsu

It turns out it reads "Rip Ripple" indeed.
Sorry for misleading

 

Audio for 'Done' is out.

I thought it would be a song like Tokonoma Seiza Musume, something mature and dark since Mikanyan is the center so this song quite surprised me.

 

A little bit remind me Beginner... Not sure that I like it, but sound interesting... Waiting MV.

 

I thought this sounded more mature and dark than Tokonoma Seiza Musume though



I wouldn't mind Tokonoma Seiza Musume 2.0 (or should I say Zetsumetsu Kurokami Shoujo 3.0 lol) but this is good too. NMB hasn't had either of these sounds as an A-side for a long while although they used to do very well on both (and are more to my personal taste too lol).

Hoping for an interesting choreo!

 

I loved the song. Best NMB A-side in quite a while. Of course, Inoue Yoshimasa knows how to do great songs. I was expecting a quite different sound for a Mikana centered single, something like SKE Jikan ga Nai, maybe, but I'm surprised in a very good way. Can't wait to see it performed live.
