Turns out Marina will be center for the type C coupling song "Genten"
Congrats!

 

/fangirl on
Best.Center.Ever.
Can't wait to see this.

I loved her in the new MV. I loved her as she replaced Okadasan in the recent Kaze performance.

I just love this awkward and cute girl.

Michu posted a few photos of Mariina wearing one of those pyon-pyon rabbit hats on twitter. She refers to her as "archangel mariina"




There is also a video of her in action!

These were posted some time after Michu, Mariina and Sakkii, did a LINE LIVE where they talked and answered some fan questions. My japanese isn't the greatest but some of the questions that were asked were very mariina-ish like "what's your favorite traffic light color?" and "have you met any aliens lately?" By the way Mariina said she likes the color of the green light when it's blinking and about to turn red.

I really like this girl. I was watching Setobingo and from out of nowhere she stole the show with her gestures.

 

I like her too, she's quickly rising to be one of my favourites in STU48. I've got an HS ticket for her at the AKB48 event on 4/30 and I'm very excited and curious to see what she'll be like when I meet her.

 

^^and I was right to be excited! She was wearing the cutest maid costume I’ve ever seen! She was very cheerful and genki. I told her that I went to STU48 concerts last year in Yamaguchi and as I left she gave me a very long and friendly goodbye. The shy and awkward Marina is no more!

 

Ty so much for sharing @David61 .

But I hope only she super shy Marina is gone. Since I love awkward Marina. :q

 

Marina (together with Miyumiyu) will have a voice actor role in the new Studio 4 °C anime movie 'Children of the Sea':

Both girls will voice members of a handball club which the main character belongs to. TOHO animation has posted a video with both girls on its YT channel:

(The first 10 minutes is just a caption, then the girls appear in vision at the Enoshima Aquarium.)

 

There was a live on Niconico about it today.
Maybe some of you can still watch it.
It was region locked for me, despite my premium suscribe.

^ The niconico live was/is the exact same thing. It was also streamed on Periscope, which was linked on STU48 official twitter.

 

"Marice in Wonderland" as titled by Michu

Our favorite alien is now on twitter. https://twitter.com/marina_stu48

 

Good to see the news that Marina centered 2 songs at the TDC concert, Kagami no Naka no Jean D'Arc and Genten. Naachan tweeted a couple of photos from backstage:
