^ I know what I was voting for. If it's unclear how my statement relates to the thread, let me rephrase that - I am glad the Western Fandom does not decide about the line-ups, line distribution, and promotion issues, of AKB48.
I can only wish that we got to decide those things... Haachan and Wasamin have always had lots of support on the forum, so I'm glad they grabbed the top two spots. I'm a little surprised that Sumire didn't get all that many votes, I feel like she has lots of representation here for some reason.
Wow, Haachan won by a mile. 8D And OMG, I'm glad to see Wasamin at #2. Tanamin has a great ranking too. ♥
@rls I think suuchan is popular but is not necessarily peoples favourite. I didn't realise rumi was so popular here :O My gorgeous shiichan has some way to go still, but with things like this weeks akbingo I'm sure she'll move up more!
I just added up how many people voted for each of the girls- (name/points/# of times people voted for them) 01. Katayama Haruka----85 - 33 02. Iwasa Misaki-----------39 - 13 03. Yonezawa Rumi------36 - 18 04. Chikano Rina---------33 - 16 05. Matsui Sakiko--------30 - 14 06. Tanabe Miku---------28 - 14 07. Maeda Ami------------26 - 12 07. Nakaya Sayaka------26 - 15 09. Ishida Haruka--------24 - 12 10. Oya Shizuka---------23 - 9 11. Sato Sumire----------21 - 9 12. Nakata Chisato------16 - 7 13. Suzuki Mariya--------15 - 7 14. Nakatsuka Tomomi-11 - 5 14. Nonaka Misato-------11 - 6 16. Uchida Mayumi------06 - 5 You can see some interesting things there, like how more people voted for Yonechan than Wasamin, but Wasamin's fans gave her more points, giving her the lead.
So the girls left that have never been in senbatsu...Katayama, Iwasa, Yonezawa, Nakaya, Oya, Nakata, Suzuki, and Nonaka. All of my favourites out of "Team U" are in those 8... <_<
Chikariina got 4th, which means that she is well appreciated here! I'm really glad, this and the official senbatsu just made my day!!
