my package came today i finally got Beginner single, its the Theater Edition, i also got SDN48's Ai, Chuseyo and SKE48's Banzai Venus, both also Theater editions


Aspen,
i also recommend blue rose
and
Choose Me! ( Sakura no Shiori )
Majisuka Rock 'n' Roll ( Sakura no Shiori )

As far as singles go I'd say go for the Bsides like others have mentioned ALIVE, Lucky Seven and so on.

Echoing what others have said about Blue rose, Kimi wa Pegasus and MARIA.

As far as other stage songs.

Trying not to list what others have already said. In stage order...

....if only I had skills like that. My college GPA would be so much higher :P

and to the people discovering AKB just now, I also suggest watching some of their variety shows. They're just so entertaining, much more than singing, dancing robots. Real people.

^Totally. Like, that's honestly what's what got me so into them. Their music is great, but knowing them makes it so much better.

ANTIGLOBABURA XDDDD SO ADORABLE XD But what country was that xD ?

aw, thank you guys for everything

That girl has mad skills. Are there more videos like that for other members? They seem so fun lol

Thanks for all those recommendations, don't have time to check it out today, but I'll listen to it as soon as possible :).

As for the units: I will only start looking through their material when I'm finished with AKB48 stuff. Otherwise I'll loose sight of what I've already heard and will worry that I'm loosing something out :innocent.

Edit: Well, I decided that I'll go to training later and listened to the songs instead. I liked most of the songs from Stage K and A, style of Team B seems to soft for me. Therefore I'll just download some of their Stage Albums (hopefully I'll find them somewhere Oo) and look if I'll find other songs that I like. Thanks again@everyone!

I'm very new to AKB48, and I'm wondering if someone knows which version of the Beginner CD+DVD single has the uncensored version of the PV on it? Thanks so much. ^_^

I don't think any of the editions actually have the uncensored one...but I could be wrong.

^^Nintendo's right. Neither version has it unfortunately. The only way to have the video is to buy "AKB ga Ippai" (which is SO worth it by the way).

damn. I might get the AKB ga Ippai DVD if there's an OS release, I can't afford to buy it if I want to get Ayu's CDL10-11. T_T

So it seems Aimi's picture was stolen.

From the official blog

An unfortunate announcement

Today, the picture of "Eguchi Aimi" that is on the wall in the theater was stolen.

It seems that this happened when we were selling pictures today.

I think that this occurred because on a whim in the heat of the moment.

Also, I think that right about now, the person who did it regrets it.

If you do regret it, please return the picture.

It's simple for us to prepare a replacement for the theater.

But that's not the point.

That a picture hasn't been stolen off the wall until now is proof of the strong bond of trust between the theater and the fans.

If you would return the picture to the theater, we would appreciate it.

And, I believe that such an incident will not occur again.


Not cool. Like it says the fact that no pictures have been stolen until now is proof of the bond of trust between the staff and fans. No one took any of the pictures. Now that someone has it's disrespectful to Togasaki-san and the other staff who placed that trust in the fans.

I hope they return the picture.

On another another note I'm beginning to like NMB. I watched their 1st Stage. Their version of Team A's 3rd Stage is pretty good. I had only heard Bird before and it's pretty good. Sayanee has a good voice. Although you know how you can hear backing vocals on some songs? I hear them during the watashi part. I checked just to make sure and I don't hear it in the original.

I was wondering how their version of Rider would sound and unsure if they could do the song justice because it's about a fan who passed away but they did a really good job. The whole stage sounds really good. The girls were very sharp. Of course like with SKE I have to get to know the girls a little better.

I want to see their version of K2.

I didnt have time to check their latest album but I did listen to flower by that leader girl,
its a nice single, I enjoyed every song, which I cant say for tomochin single, I dont know,
it has some nice songs but the lead track didnt do anything for me.

I prefer Tomochin over Aaaachan xD
Tomo is so fierce and sexy and A is so null and colorless (I cant find a world here - she is just boring) I find her cute but a little bit annoying...and she is overshowed...rly


Its not like Aimi is gonna mind xDDD

well, I like her not pushy cuteness lol, tomochin is like too much for me haha,
but she's not my fav, from what I could seen from this shows and performances I checked
my fav is mayuyu, she's adorable!

I started listenin koko ni ita koko, I think Ive read here its not such a good album,
but I actually like every song lol, I cant even pick my fav since they all are cute and catchy, have nice melodies and such.

and I found this http://umi-uta.livejournal.com/3472.html
omg so many

^
^It's Acchan.
And she is the Queen.

^I really enjoyed the album too.
You'll find their music has lots of different styles.

I already realized that haha, everyday katyusha sugar overload (and my fav so far)
and fierce beginner.

So, I finished with koko ni ita koko, amazin' album from start to finish,
Ill listen 2nd stage by team B now.

Yes but I have right not to like her and express how I fell aobut her :)

^Of course. I was expressing my opinion too :laugh
