    Other AKB and STU peformances @TIF (without Naachan in it)

    It seems either STU staff made a mistake or they simple change the line up, but initially they wrote that Okiyuka is in the final performance line up which if you see the video or pictures, it was Nonchan that is in it. Basically your usual Okiyuka - Naachan swap.

    Naachan was on fire at TIF, especially the STU performance.

    Probably nothing much happened last Saturday and Sunday. On Friday, after Naachan performance @TIF, she was going with Yuiri to at least eat shaved ice and get an alcoholic drink. The alcoholic drink part has been confirmed by Yuiri when someone asked about Naachan looking all smiles in a mobame picture.
    On Monday she had a photoshoot for Weekly Shonen Champion! it will be the first time she is on that magazine and she will be on the cover! :) Beside the usual gravure, it will also contain Naachan's interview.
    It will be out on Sept 6th.

    =====
    AKB has scheduled a bunch of theater performances and 7 of those (4 days total because 3 of those days have 2 performances/day) are Team 4! They also scheduled a Thumbnail performance!
    Other potential performance is STU charity concert. There'll be 4 performances. 2 in Osaka, 1 in Fukuoka and 1 in Tokyo. Naachan currently is not included in the Osaka lineup but I'm hoping that she will at least perform at the Tokyo one. My only concern is that since the Tokyo performance is the last one (Oct 3rd), thus this concert will definitely overlap with the Majimuri stage practice. It is doable, but her schedule probably will be tight starting from around mid September because of the stage practice.

    =====
    forgot to post this earlier, but s_egg has a nice inteview with 5 STU members (including Naachan) that were done during their performance @akb48 theater
    http://www.scramble-egg.com/artist/stu48/180726akb48theater.htm

    One of the interesting point is that if I'm reading it correctly, the teacher (dance teacher) came from Hiroshima and teach her 5 to 6 songs in 2 days at every meeting (so probably at least 3 meetings?). After those 2 days she will only do self practice for those set of songs.

    The other interesting point is that some of STU costumes are color coded based on the prefecture and Naachan wearing black color for this particular costume
    [​IMG]
    At a glance it looked similar to Fuu's color, but Fuu's color is actually blue.
    Originally they offered Naachan to wear green (Kagawa) but they say anything is fine. Blue (Hyogo) is also a possibility since Naachan grandmother still lives there. She again stated that she was born in Osaka which surprised Fuuchan. Anyway, the article didn't mention why she finally wore black.

    The other STU costume that is color coded
    [​IMG]
    For this costume she wore the Hyogo color.

    =====
    Need to post this photoset picture of Naachan because she looks great in it

    She had another photoshoot on Tuesday, this time for Young Champion magazine. Although this magazine is from the same publication as Weekly Shonen Champion, this is a separate photoshoot (at least I think it is a separate photoshoot). She will also be on the cover! :)
    [​IMG]
    When she announced that photoshoot, the subject was sad news and good news. Obviously the good news is about the photoshoot. The sad news is that her OPI (oppai, since apparently oppai is a NG word, thus OPI) had shrunk. She did reduced her weight but at the cost of losing the fat in her OPI :^^;:

    =====
    Also on M-ON yesterday there was news about AKB48 Kansha sai concert, covering the senbatsu concert. It has short clips for Sentimental Train, Naachan solo(!), Ogiyuka solo, Sakura solo... well, not solo since she had other HKT members on the stage, and Sasae.
    This is the same video as posted before by @Naaruru , but only the Naachan part

    The full M-ON coverage
    http://dai.ly/x6rl5x9

    Also on AKBINGO today, there is a notice about Majimuri stageplay, which of course mentioned Naachan. Also one of her SayaYuuri picture had been used in the show. Other than that, they showed a half length version of that kansha sai Sentimental Train performance.

    =====
    She also bought a lot of manga yesterday.
    "Kaichou wa Maid-sama!" special edition
    "Kaichou wa Maid-sama! Marriage "
    "Tomodachi Ijou no Koto, Shitai"
    "Kazoku Ni Narouyo"
    and others...
    She bought Maid-sama because she loves it during her junior high school days. Because of it she wanted to work as a maid in a maid cafe.... :^^;:
    The last 2 are BL manga maid by the same author (Kurahashi Tomo).

    =====
    Her words regarding Imaizumi Yui that just announced her graduation

    Hopefully they can meet soon :)

    She went to Team 8 concert, but can only watch the later ones because she had a job before. The job is probably for AKB game, Dice Caravan. I said probably because I'm not really sure, but she wore the same costume as the one being used in the Dice Caravan STU48 collab event promo

    The cast member for Team 4 performance on 8/14 is out and Naachan is not in it. Also AKB will perform @ JAM EXPO 2018" on 8/25 and Naachan is also not in it.
    http://www.at-jam.jp/news/656
    As you can see from the lineup, Yuihan, Tomu, and Miion are there, so whatever Naachan doing on that date is probably not 48G senbatsu related. Either they will start practicing for Majimuri stage or something else. I don't see anything scheduled for her from the STU48 side.

    Janken preliminary - NaaYumi cut

    For me, the disappointment (yes, NaaYumi didn't make it to the finals) is not about missing the potential to win janken but more about not seeing her in cosplay. If it is about the single, I believe she would get it eventually, especially after reading this article
    https://www.tokyo-sports.co.jp/entame/entertainment/1090297/
    which has been translated by Okadananafans
    https://twitter.com/Okadananafans/status/1028114847718723586
    Apparently AKB's officials wanted a successor for Sayanee.

    Because of that article, some fans asking Naachan's opinion about being called Sayanee's successor and she responded to that
    https://7gogo.jp/okada-nana/19947
    Okadananafans already translated the response (she doesn't agree with the successor thing)
    https://twitter.com/Okadananafans/status/1028151295104827392
    Also a follow up question by the fans that asked Naachan about the part where they said Naachan singing is better than Sayanee and she answered that she can't catch up to Sayanee which is probably what you expect on how Naachan would answer that with her low self esteem problem.

    If management really want to push Naachan as a singer, then that is fine by me. Just drop the successor part, it is annoying. I personally doesn't like the way management think trying to have a successor for every successful 48G members. If this is just media talking about it, then you can't really do anything because it is purely an opinion, but apparently this Yamamoto successor thing came from AKB's officials.
    Also for all the admiration showed by music show producer, tv station officials, and staff on her ranked concert solo performance and solocon, I should remind people (and management, not that they read this) that she doesn't have anything free officially available in public that showed her singing. You can't really convince general public about someone that is good at singing without having anything to show them. Of course if you search Youtube, you can find some video that is showing Naachan's singing which if management (or maybe tv station or label, etc) found out, it would be gone unless it is taken from an event where recording is allowed (thus not professionally produced).
    Maybe Sayanee graduation will be the catalyst needed for management to actually think about pushing Naachan more seriously. Although I'll take that, it is not something that is desirable. It is like saying you can only move forward if the person in front of you moved away. If Sayanee didn't graduate, then they probably won't be thinking about pushing Naachan more seriously.

    I agree that Naachan shouldn't be viewed as the successor of Sayanee but as a talent/performer on her own. But I have the feeling that 48 management is always and foremost looking at most girls as "successor of ...". As I consider Japan a pretty conservative country I sort of understand where this way of thinking is coming from; if you have something succesfull, why change it?
    I won't be gloomy over the fact that 48 higher ups think of Naachan as Sayanee's successor though. If that is what it takes to get her the recognition and chances she deserves then I even will be happy about it.
    And let's not forget, even though she may be viewed as a successor now, Naachan still has plenty of years to show of her own identity and with the talent she has I have no doubt that she, given the chance, will succeed in doing so.

    On the positive side, isn't it good that Naachan is being acknowledged as the second Sayanee? Sayanee sells out her handshake almost immediately, is publicly recognized as an amazing singer and performer, front row 365 days a year, and is everything that a successful idol is. As long as management doesn't keep repeating "Okada Nana, Yamamoto Sayaka no keishousha" like they did with Yuiyui, it's all fine to be honest.

    I totally agree with the comments above.

    Before I read on, the moment I saw they wrote " ooo she's the successor ".... I was like o great, they had just "hurt" her again .....

    Being referred & compared to is nice but sometimes it'll let some people to think they are not good enough.

    Especially like what @Oddball82 mentioned, Why rock the boat when it aren't broken.

    Hopefully they will in the future see Naachan as Naachan and not someone else shadow.

    The 4th song was by request and fans were requesting Oshimeshi first. She declined and directed people to watch it on the adultcon DVD :^^;:

    This one is from Yuiri's 1s HS. Probably the last time you will see Naachan crashing into Yuiri's HS since Teacher Teacher HS doesn't have these gimmicks and for Sentimental Train HS Yuiri will only do signing (no 1s/2s). Of course they might change it for the 54th HS... we'll see..

    Yumirin also said that she already reserved Naachan for the next Janken event which also has been confirmed by Naachan when a fan asked her directly during HS.

    Btw, the Yukata is provided (by management?) thus not the members personal yukata. Sayanee had worn the purple yukata before (I believe for a music show event) and Tomu worn that purple yukata on the 3rd day (not sure if it is just the same yukata but another set). They worn Yukata for 2 days and 1 day wearing private clothes.

    =====
    The lineup for Team 4 stage on 8/17 has been revealed and Naachan is not in it. STU48 do have their last business trip performance at NMB48 theater on the same day but I don't think they have revealed the lineup for that.

    =====
    Another thing. She is 1st on 2017 Stage48 member ranking! Thanks for everyone that participated and make Naachan won 1st 3rd time in a row! Hopefully people can love Naachan more and support her more in the future :)
    http://stage48.net/forum/index.php?...-ranking-results-all-rankings-revealed.22314/
    Although she has a fair amount of people giving her negative points, she also has a lot of people giving positive points for her. We shouldn't be thinking too much about the negatives. I hope that the haters can eventually like Naachan or at least being neutral towards her and those that give negative for tactical purpose can stop doing it. The important thing is when they do the ranking for 2018, don't forget to participate and vote for Naachan. Every point counts.

    =====
    *small update. She is also not in the STU business trip lineup at NMB theater. That means she will miss 8/14 + 8/17 Team 4 and 8/17 STU performance, and 8/18 national HS event. That's a full week. Hm...
    Fyi, I checked Team A performance on 8/15 and Yuihan + Miion are there, so if she missed an entire week because of a project, it won't be a senbatsu thing. Of course it might just be that she had something to do on those exact dates (8/14,17,18).

    I believe the member can bring their own Yukata, or just use provided one. Source.

    Yes, member can wear their own yukata. The most obvious example is Kai Kokoa's Carp yukata (the baseball club). But the majority of them probably use the provided yukata. Even Sakura use the provided yukata. Of course using the provided yukata means that it is possible for 2 members being photographed with the same yukata during this 3 days HS event.

    =====
    In case you didn't read the update on my previous post, Naachan is not performing for Team 4 and STU on 8/14 and 8/17. Also not in national HS lineup on 8/18. Now we kinda know why. She just sent a mail that says she can't mail for several days starting from tomorrow. I honestly don't know what kind of project that can prevent her sending mail for several days. The last time she said that she can't mail (other than health related) was during the Thai military recording. When she did her PB, she still mail like normal. Hopefully whatever she will do for the next few days, it will be really good.
