来たーーーー!!!

As far as first official shots go, this one isn't very flattering.

Oh wells! Thank goodness for her reveal at the concert then. Really hit me with her looks there and then.

All the best to her new career.

 

How fitting for her, the one who passsed the Post-Yamada Nana Audicion, that her first stage was Yamada Nana's last stage

 

Thanks for creating the thread.

I think she did quite well on her first stage performance. Here and there she was out of synch (too late with movements) and she lost her hat in Kiseki but otherwise a solid performance. Can't say much about her character or MC skills yet but she seems to be a bit more on the shy side, which I find adorable.

She's got a Nagisa kind of feel to her.

 

I can't wait to see her grow up and watch her become better and better!! We're the same age but whenever I see her I want to kiss her and tuck her into bed shes so cute and looks so young like a baby

 

man, that's mean.

then again...

 

^Did I lie? She's adorable!! Can't wait to see what type of character she develops in NMB.
no kennins yet please

 

Azunyan will do well if she doesn't rely on a loli character and nothing else...although her performance just starting out is a little weak, she seems to be good at making people laugh.

 

In comparison to the first performance by the draftees (except maybe Sararan) she was nearly perfect. lol

 

All I said was that it was a little weak! It wasn't the strongest performance, but it's all I expect since she just joined. Obviously she'll improve with time and no, it wasn't bad for the first couple of performances. I just hope that she actually does improve and not just fall back on the loli character and think it's fine to stay the way she is.

 

I don't have a solid impression of her character yet but I hope she doesn't just go down the cutesy route too.

 

Same here; she seems shy but I did notice there were times in MCs where it seemed like she really cracked people up, so that's good. Too bad I can't understand what she's saying, because I love a good comedian.

 

its odd that they did this for Nana but no other popular members.

Oh well, its pretty interesting anyways

 

No one of Nana's level has graduated yet.

 

Well, that's because NMB is not managed by AKS, and as @zeroshiki said, no one in NMB at the same level than Nana has graduated.

 

Does anyone else think her portrait looks like Nishino Nanase??

 

So, are we expecting post-Sayanee, Post-Milky, Post-Fuu, Post-Miru???

 

^Only the time could said that (And how "successful" Asuza becomes)

 

I don't think we'll be getting one for post sayanee or post milky, they're basically aces of nmb. asking for a post sayamilky is literally asking for someone to step up and be the ace of the group. nana was a wild one, she wasn't an orthodox idol but she wasn't a cool type either, she was odd in a good way
