    She plays 'The Woman Master of the Dark Bar' and makes a first appearance at 3:14. Apparently the story is about "The battle of humankind to regain fried chicken in a world where fried chicken is prohibited"[hehe]: https://thetv.jp/news/detail/1015923/

    omg how did I only hear about this now? Really 9th gen just said "LET'S GO" lolol.

    I adore Mina. Moving her to SKE was the best possible move for her idol career. She thrived in SKE's environment while in AKB I felt she was swallowed by the other members. Also, the jokes and body shaming were a little too much back then, but she felt comfortable in SKE and it showed. Also, Mina was just a star in SKE. Her performances were always good and her MC-ing was top notch. Also she was spectacular as a regular variety member back when SKE had those variety shows with that Comedian Lady whose name escapes me. Truly she'll be missed. She had a good character and a strong fanbase that allowed her to enter senbatsu (I mean SKE fans are no joke during the election). So few 48-group idols thrived as a kennin/pure transfer member but Mina was able to manage the change with ease. She understood the assignment and never failed as an idol.
