Single [SINGLE] Nogizaka46 7th [Barrette] 13/11/27

Thanks for the update, Rust!
Very glad to see a lot of the girls doing well, especially my favorites.

For the catchphrases not explained on the program, you can find them all on R no Housoku's website

Sayu, the Ultimate Weapon.

 

I'm exciting about the handshake event coming in Sunday at Yokohama. I will go for lane 6 where Ikuta,Ashurin and Mayyan are standing. Thinking about what to say to them is pretty difficult and can't sleep well thinking about it.

 

Im so Jealous!
Cant wait for my trip there [party] [party]

 

I wish you have a chance to meet with them too .

Today I went to Yokohama for akushukai. Fans line up across the Pacifico in a cold winter talking each other about their Oshimens. Some checking member's blog and photo while waiting. The morning was mini live. I did't buy a CD yet, so I didn't have a chance to attend live. The CD shop was said to be open at 12:00 and akushukai planned to start at 1:30. At 12:00 Tower Record put up a CD sale counter and sold the CD. There are some cosplayer wearing a mix-up version of Dragon Ball Z and Nogizaka46 theme and Naruto. For the lines, Ikuta+Ashurin+Mayyan 's line seems to be the longest since two out of them is popular. Ikuta's face expression is very gental, she sway her head alittle bit to the left and smile. Ashurin was jumped and waved bye bye to me when I leave. Wakasama's line is super long too. I peeped into Wakasama's cubicle and find her super attractive.

 

Hey I'm just wondering, how long would Ikoma and Miona's line be? (I hope that I'd get to meet them someday...) [notme]

 

I went to the handshake in Yokohama today and it was amazing! They did the live before anything else and performed バレッタ and all of the b-sides. Unfortunately they didn't perform any old songs, but they performed 私のために　誰かのために 100% live! More than any of the other 48 groups can say for any of the handshakes of theirs I've been to. I bought four copies of the single so I went in Ikuchan, Kazumin, Reika, and Myumyu's lines. All of them were so nice! Ikuchan was very quiet and polite, like last time I met her. Kazumin did "AMAZING!" with me, so I was ecstatic. Reika was incredibly sweet, and seemed so genuinely happy when I said I was a big fan of hers. Myumyu was the best though. She was SO sweet and enthusiastic and even said "大好き！" as I was leaving and waved to me from her booth when I was in Ikuchan's line. I have to say that my oshimen actually changed today: from Ikuchan to Myumyu

I think Ikuchan's definitely wasn't the longest lol. Did you see the ones beyond hers? Nanase and Maiyan's lines were super long, as usual (I'd say Nanase's was probably the longest). Ikuchan's was definitely longer than when I went for Girls Rule, so I was happy about that. Myumyu's line barely had anyone in it though. It was basically just a straight walk with no waiting the whole time I was there.

Ikoma's line was a good size, although not nearly as long as Maiyan, Nanase, Nanamin, or Sayurin's. Miona's was long considering it was just her and two kenyuusei (I believe; I had never heard of either of them), though not as long as those of most of the other hachifukujin for this single.

 

Ya, I didn't check Maiyan's line. Straight walk into Wakasama's cubicle must be a little bit too much, I guess lolz. I did see at least three line of people there.Actual straight walk is Chiharu's line,nobody waiting,just stright walk to the cubicle and the staffs gave enough time to chat, the girl must be sad. lolz we are fighting on how long our favourites lane. The longest I think is Nogizaka46 official goods lane. The crazy staff send me there to buy a CD and took about one hour and Tower Record was selling without even a single person in the queue. Crazy management.

 

Thanks for your reports, both of you!

It definitely feels nice hearing Yumi leaving a nice impression, since although I won't see her this single period, I'll probably make time for her in Spring.

Don't mind if I ask how Minami was?
Seeing how Kazumin's lane was visited.

 

Guys thanks a lot for the sharing! It's great to know how the girls actually do at handshake events. Now it makes a lot of sense about Nishino and Akimoto's handshake tickets selling like hot cakes. Even though Ikuchan is my favorite but I can image meeting her at a handshake booth can be kinda boring despite her interesting character lolz. If I were to attend an individual handshake event, maybe Akimoto or Nishino would be a wiser choice as they could guarantee me a sweet memory.

 

Ngzk was on Nakai's new music show, Sound Room 2013.12.10! Reika, Maiyan, Ikoma, & Miona were on the talking section, while senbatsu performed Barrette later on, in a room that create weird sound effect it seems?

YouTube with only Barrette perf: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NZn0zQV2AE

It was live singing it seems, wish there weren't the wierd sound effect lol.

 

the sound effect was there also when i watched the actual stream.
maybe its due to the structure of the room? the background seems to have those mirror-like things that r uneven and may cause some echo effect

 

Hmm ... I'm not sure if you're talking about the same sound effect as the one heard in the YouTube video. The YouTube one sounds like it's altered/edited so the video can pass copyright detection.

Anyway I found a .ts file on Jpopsuki and uploaded it to Vimeo and it doesn't have the weird sound effect like the YT one. Password is: nogizaka46

Note: If you download it from Vimeo it's in MP4 format because I compressed it to make the file size smaller for Vimeo limit.

 

There were literally I think three people in front of me when I entered the line and that was it. I wish more people had been in her line though

You're welcome! And Minami was actually the least enthusiastic handshake I've ever had from a Nogizaka member, and I've shaken hands with 15 of them. She didn't seem rude, just unenthusiastic and like she didn't care too much. Then again, I was super enthusiastic to meet Kazumin cuz I love her, then shook Minami's hand and told her I hoped she can get into senbatsu again. She just thanked me and gave a slight smile. At least it wasn't a BAD handshake, which I would consider Tomochin's when I met her lol

 

Thank you for your input!

It's just as I expected
Super excited to see her at the Nagoya kobetsu, thanks!

 

i'm glad to hear this, it confirms that i made a good choice choosing to be myumyu oshi (btw sometimes i see her name written miyumiyu - they both refer to Wakatsuki Yumi right?)

 

I'm late~ ;A;

She had a bad name in the past, so some of the fans don't like her. But she's been working hard on her acting and appearance and continually improving. Even though Wakatsuki is not my oshi, I'm always supporting.

 

Late & lazy lol orz
