TV / Radio [Nogizakatte, Doko?] - 2011.10.02 ~ 2015.04.12

The show did a great job showing how the girls were trying their best to give out the tissues and that's what happened.

Spoiler: My recollection

It happened about 3 weeks ago on a Wednesday afternoon. My friends and I were about to leave tower records shibuya then suddenly a cute girl wanted to hand out a pack to my friend. (It was idou marika) at first I didn't recognize them but after I saw the purple border and Ikoma's pic I kinda shouted/ asked "nogizaka?"

That's when sakurai a few feet away quickly made her way to give me one. I knew her face but to be honest forgot her name. I asked their names and they politely introduced theirselves. I asked if I can take a photo but due to it being filmed I couldn't. So I was afraid of making a fool of myself and said "sorry I don't speak a lot of japanese " and said thanks. Forgetting to ask for a handshake. >.<

 

I hope that someone could make a subtitle for this episode. They really doing their best for Ikoma. Hope Ikoma could rank in the election as senbatsu. Then, she could learn something from other AKB senbatsu and bring back to Nogizaka46.

 

My favorite from this past episode.

 

Seems like Hinachima is better "equipped" to pull off Dan Mitsu than Ringo-hime.

 

Was very impressed with Nanamin's kendama skills.

 

There was something new in today's episode. Did you notice? Did ya??

They used the new Bananaman Logo designed by Marika's dad

part 2

 

I always like episodes like this because it's a nice way of seeing new aspects of the members (that, or reaffirming what you already do know in another way), though the listening members (+MC) weren't as rowdy as I was expecting (I thought someone would've called Manatsu black-hearted during her segment for sure).

I would have liked to have seen all of the members present their topics (maybe make this project a 2 part thing or something), even if it was just a digest, but that's TV for you.

It amuses me, however, that Rena finally shows up in the studio and she doesn't really do anything, lol. I suppose if one were looking at it positively, at least people can't really complain about her getting special treatment whenever she appears on the show (though there haven't really been any promiment naysayers so I guess that fear is a thing of the past). I was really looking forward to her fangirling about trains or little girls because it would have been so amusing to see the member's (+MC's) reactions.

But, if anything, what disappointed me the most (though it was to be expected) would have to be Yuttan, I guess. I've been hoping that her being in senbatsu would give her more screentime in NogiDoko (because she's always interesting in variety) but so far not much has happened. Maybe it's still too early to tell. Though to be honest, what I really I wanted was just to see her spazz about butts or other perverted ideas, lol.

 

^ lol, but they did panel to Rena a lot during Hoshimina's presentation (so you could kind of see her fangirling for younger girls). Well, but everyone fawns over Hoshimina, haha. I wonder if Hoshimina will take the place of Rena's favorite that was occupied by (Mukaida) Manatsu.

 

^
I won't argue the semantics of what you mean when you write "Rena's favorite" or "take the place of" but, anything's possible for the future. As they are both in senbatsu I'm sure there are chances for them to get closer. from here on out.

Though, I'm pretty sure we can agree right now that Miona's probably the only one that has a chance of being Rena's anything in Nogizaka. Next would probably be Asuka(?), lol, if we consider Rena's KD tendencies (before Rena officially became a part of Nogizaka46, she watched the Nogizaka concert DVD to prepare for her transer and spazzed about Asuka on twitter).

 

^ lol, yeah I was kind of being vague about it but I meant it as a Nogi member she fawns over as much as she did Manatsu (Rena's Finland Miracle commentaries were the best, haha).

And really?! Rena about Asuka... that should be interesting cause Asuka can be kind of harsh sometimes, haha.

 

Hit ritual next week!

Shame on me for failing the triangle question and even worse, for saying Sayuringo missed that... OTL

 

I love the quizzes, because they always show me how wrong my assumptions about the members were; I never would have guessed Manattan or Ringo would do so well. I always thought Wakatsuki seemed like the most intelligent, and there she is bang in the middle. It always hits me just how different school tests in Japan and the UK are as well.

 

It's hard to believe that Bananamen didn't say Nogibaka even once)
