＼(^o^)／ Not quite what I was expecting after her hints yesterday (but better).

The day after Butai Shoujo YoRHa concluded (so, December 7), she started a new mysterious job that she was very excited about and would benefit from her experience in the YoRHa play (from Mobame). The job proved difficult, but she persevered with the kind help of her coworkers as it transitioned into filming sessions (!?!?). Anyway long story short I'm sure a lot of people reading her mobame were curious about this new job and asked her about it at the online talk session (myself included). Of course she couldn't reveal anything other than it was difficult, which suggested it wasn't something she'd really done before, and that she'd have more news for us soon. Mysteries upon mysteries

Fast forward to yesterday:

And on Twitter:

2020-12-24 21:44 @o_megu1112
Merry Christmas Eve
Tomorrow, I'll have a wonderful announcement for all of you who keep been cheering for me.
Check my SNS around noon!
You're gonna love it~


The hype was palpable. I was, of course, expecting an announcement that she'd be in a drama. That would have been lovely.

Instead, she announced an agency transfer!!! What's more, to the same agency as Ikoma Rina.

2020-12-25 12:00 @o_megu1112
As of now, I belong to A.M. Entertainment!
I'll do my best to grow more as an idol while continuing my activities as a member of AKB48,
And to broaden my experiences and bring forth a new me for the sake of my dream to become an actress.

From now on as before, please be cheering for me ✨




But that's not all! In the Oricon article about her agency transfer, they also confirmed what was suspected:

edit:
And here's her official agency profile:

Speaking of Butai Shoujo YoRHa, if you haven't watched it yet you can still do so until New Years Eve here:

It even has English subtitles!

There are also still good for sale from the stage, though unfortunately Megu's Character Photobook is sold out.

Also, sub to her mobame if you aren't already. She shares a lot of candid thoughts there, not to mention the beautiful pics.

 

あけおめことよろ
Happy New Year

IMO she really stood out in the senbatsu on CDTV last night, she looked great and very beautiful especially when she was looking over Yukirin's shoulder as she centered '365 Nichi' :

 

久しぶりに家族みんなで過ごせた時✨
曲はまた友達がセレクトしてくれました〜。あ、カバーも友が選んでくれた笑

I was able to spend time with the whole family for the first time in a long time ✨
My friend selected the song again. Oh, my friend chose the cover too lol

この間のお話し会で着たスカートの着回し。お話し会の時はカジュアルな感じだったけど、短めの丈の服と合わせたら可愛い感じになった♥
The skirt that I wore at the talk session during this time. It was casual at the time of the talk, but when I combined it with short length clothes, it became cute ♥

i've really come to like omegu over these last few months. are there any shows/lives you'd recommend i watch to get to know her better?

 

Flying Get Costume



AKBの衣装図鑑でも着させていただいたフライングゲットの衣装。私の右腕の大きなアクセサリー？がワンダーウーマン感ありますね、なんとなく
映画ワンダーウーマン、観たかったなぁぴえん

ちなみに衣装図鑑ではゆきりんさんの衣装、こちらの写真では篠田さんの衣装を着させていただいてます✨

The Flying Get costume that I wore in AKB's costume picture book. A big accessory for my right arm? There is a feeling of Wonder Woman, somehow
I wanted to see the movie Wonder Woman Pien

By the way, in the costume picture book, I'm wearing Yukirin's costume, and in this photo, I'm wearing Shinoda's costume.

So many shows. I'll start with what I can remember/easily look up, hopefully others have some suggestions. The most obvious one is:

AKBINGO! episode 417 (2016-11-22) - She talks about and shows off a little of her gymnastics background.
She also had a significant role in Majimuri Gakuen, if you can stand the ridiculous "plot".

I remember lots of good Megu segments on AKBINGO, Nemousu TV, AKB48 no Konya wa Otomari/Shikiritai, AKB48SHOW!, Anta Dare, and Kimi Dare but I'll have to go back and dig them up again (been meaning to anyway).

For stage performances, she was present in most performances of the following setlists:
Team A 5th Stage Revival "Renai Kinshi Jourei" Debuted 2014-07-14, frequently center from 2014-12-11 until the senshuuraku on 2015-08-23
Team A 7th Stage "M.T. ni Sasagu" 2016-02-10 to 2018-05-16
Team B 5th Stage Revival "Theater no Megami" 2018-09-08 to present

Takamina Produced Stage "The IDOL Stage" 2016-02-22

Shunputei Koasa's "Eve wa Adam no Abarabone" (イヴはアダムの肋骨 - SS3) 2015-10-16 to 2017-03-05
Kojima Haruna's "Koukando Bakuage" (好感度爆上げ) 2016-11-21 to 2017-04-13
Toyama Daisuke's "Minerva yo, Kaze wo Okose" (ミネルヴァよ、風を起こせ - SS6) 2017-02-28 to 2018-12-20
Aoki's "Sekai wa Yume ni Michiteiru" (世界は夢に満ちている - SS9) 2017-08-16 to 2018-12-18
Kashiwagi Yuki's "Boku no Natsu ga Hajimaru" (僕の夏が始まる - SS12) 2019-06-30 to present

+ helper performances in various stages in 2015, 2016, 2017, and a few appearances in the Thumbnail stage.
See http://akiha176.web.fc2.com/ for a list of performers for all stages (not sure if it's being updated for the half-member ones this year)

TV performances and such I'd have to go back and look as well, as I don't really keep very good track. Same with the overseas performances and concerts she's been in.

She showed up in a few of Cherprang's Vlogs
https://www.facebook.com/bnk48official.cherprang/videos/902645263259887/

https://www.facebook.com/bnk48official.cherprang/videos/861567614358020


Her Showrooms are a treasure too, but there's so many of them... If I were to recommend just one, on 2020-04-01 she shared the story of how she became interested in AKB48, then how she auditioned to and joined the group.

Oh! Also her reaction streams to several of the Produce48 episodes. Those were great


I know there's a ton more, hopefully others can expand the list.

 

Earlier today I had an online HS talk with the very lovely and genki Megu. I noticed that she was wearing something on her head but it was off the top of the screen on my tablet! Later I found the answer on her Twitter:

https://twitter.com/o_megu1112/status/1350397926258872326

オンラインお話し会 ありがとうございました〜
新年1発目！丑年！ということで牛のカチューシャつけた
明日もよろしく〜！

Thank you for the online talk
The first new year! Year of the Ox! So I put on a cow cutie
Nice to meet you tomorrow!

 

'I like berets...' (online talk)



久しぶりにベレー帽被ったら懐かしい〜！とファンの皆が喜んでくれたむふふ。
やっぱりベレー帽好きだな〜

あ、ちなみにスカートはママのお下がりなの

I miss wearing a beret for the first time in a long time! And all the fans were pleased Mufufu.
After all I like berets ~

Oh, by the way, the skirt is mom's hand-me-down
