^That's a bad habit I'm trying to break. XD It's Mariko, btw. The shoot is from her SUPER MARIKO PB, I had trouble telling who she was when I first saw the pictures too.

Thanks! I wouldn't have known they were even posted yet otherwise. Well Hito no Chikara sounds extremely boring, so I think I'll end up going with the Type A version of the single, which is good since I prefer those covers anyways.

It's hard to tell if he'll like the cooler stuff, the traditional or the genki/cute/childish/zany songs. I'd say just examine his music tastes and choose songs from there. When introducing anyone to a new artist, I always try to start with one or two of the artists most well known/loved songs and then a couple of things I know will suit the person's taste.

You say he likes rock music so show him some of your favorite K songs. For AKB48... hmmm, maybe something along the lines of Iiwake Maybe or Beginner though it sounds like he might be more impressed by their stage work. Someone else feel free to step in and be of more help. lol

Thanks for the help. I'll give it a try and see how things go. Hopefully he likes them.

Everyday Kachuusha PV Full version
http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjYyNDM4ODgw.html

I like how they paid tribute to their other videos. Mariko a teacher? Hm.

Debating whether or not to get multiple copies of Everyday Kachuusha and vote for Sayaka in Sebatsu or multiple copies of DiVA's single when it is out. Then again Everyday Kachuusha could come too late and I would not be able to vote. I'll at least buy one copy. I really like this single.

Anyone else feel like going to the beach and having ice cream now? :laugh

OogoeDiamond 28th April 2011 11:16 AM

Kaaaachuuuusha

Friend : I will make a porn out of this PV
Me : Watch Ponytail... PV THIS IS PORN....

Uhh...? :shakehead

adantatu2 29th April 2011 05:03 AM

the song isn't her best, i prefer Ponytail
and the pv is good, but seriously, Ponytail PV for me is better too

dreamland2.0 29th April 2011 05:57 AM

Everyday tops Ponytail by x1000!!! I'd say it's almost on par with Oogoe but I wish the end part was more catchy~

Polyrhythm 29th April 2011 06:45 AM

^^ Agreed. Ponytail was amazingly catchy and had a much better senbatsu...Everyday has a good PV...but Ponytail's was better IMO (this one had a way better story though). I actually love the tributes to old PV's a lot. This song is just okay and the dance is weird. Oh but Yuko's boobs are really great. I would vote for her if I bought this single.....nah actually I would vote for Myao.

OogoeDiamond 29th April 2011 08:22 AM

I think its time for boobs election.... xD Like take o photo of boobs of every girl without a face and just vote for number xDDD

Yuko does have nice boobs. Mariko also looks very nice in a bikini.

XD I don't know if I'd say the nicest but they are nice.

Boob talk aside lol

AKS is holding auditions for HKT48, a new group in Hakata, Fukuoka.

Is it just me or was something like this mentioned when SKE debuted?

On one hand I'm happy on the other hand I'm thinking what about NMB? They don't even have much yet. Plus SKE, SDN and of course AKB what about them?

Of course Aki-P doesn't directly manage them all but still.

I guess this will be good for the people in that area who can't see the other 48 groups.

Bigtop 1st May 2011 09:42 AM

Think you've had enough AKB48 fever? Well, think again, because this time it's coming out of Fukuoka, the birthplace of Ayu and YUI...

(See above also, but I've got more specific information below...)

Quote:

Fukuoka-based HKT48 begins taking applications

It was announced during AKB48’s handshake event on Sunday that there will be another new addition to the family. Producer Akimoto Yasushi has started accepting applications for HKT48, which will be based in Fukuoka on the southern island of Kyushu.

AKB48, which was born in Akihabara, Tokyo, has already spawned two other regional groups: SKE48 in Sakae, Nagoya, and NMB48 in Namba, Osaka. Akimoto has actually been targeting the Hakata ward of Fukuoka since 2008 – when the “adult” SDN48 group was launched, he stated that the next group would likely be HKT48, followed by groups in Osaka and Sapporo. However, NMB48 ended up launching first, in October of last year.

Naturally, HKT48 will continue the tradition of being “idols that you can meet.” They will have their theater established in the Hawks Town Mall of Fukuoka’s Chuo ward, rather than in the neighboring Hakata ward.

Applications are open for girls between the ages of 11 and 22 who can sign an exclusive contract with HKT48. The pool will be narrowed down first by an application screening, then interviews, then judging on the candidates’ dancing and singing abilities. More information about the first audition is available on the HKT48 website (http://www.hkt48.jp).

thats my point rise the popularity with one group like u did with SKE and then start with another...I think that NMB can be hurt by that - sad! Anyway how many groups are gonan be there hope they will stop with 6-7

is it me or chosen girls got uglyer from casting to casting xD A and mostly K were rly pretty B ones B still pretty but not so much...SKE got some pretty girls in it and NMB seems kinda ugly

Ranma Matsuri 2nd May 2011 11:41 PM

^You must have not seen Jonishi Kei or Kondo Rina, those girls are absolutely gorgeous to me.

As much as I support Aki-P's dream of World Domination through the 48 idol concept this is starting to look like a train wreck.

SKE from what I heard is disorganized enough as it is. SDN only has one stage and has just started releasing singles. NMB is getting a lot of media attention but only has one team and no original stages yet. TWN hasn't even begun auditions yet. Granted, Aki-P doesn't manage them all on his own and TWN will be handled by a totally different party altogether but still... the Japan 48 groups are looking more and more like random half-assed side projects. :-/

Polyrhythm 3rd May 2011 12:28 AM

NMB is pretty ugly I'll have to agree on that....but a couple of their girls are cute (definitely not Yamamoto though). SKE has SOME nice girls but the freakiness of Matsui Rena kills it for me. Just my 2 cents.
