Ooo. There must be an American version of it then. I know there was apparently some when they went Anime Expo but I don't know about anywhere else. It's the same as the Japanese version except the cover has no shiny stars.

Hot topic sounds like such a random place to see it though. lol. Then again it would not be the first time something is there that I do not expect to be there.

Yeah its the one released by Maru music. I saw their stand when I went to Anime Expo. They had Kanon Wakeshima and some VK stuff...I was planning to get a copy so some of the girls could sign it...but I couldn't make the autograph sessions so I didn't. Its basically the Japanese version of the album minus obi and holographic cover.

[OogoeDiamond]

I am I blind or Sakura.... isnt on a album tracklist?

[dreamland2.0]

Nope it isn't~ It will probably be on their next album.

And translated track titles (just into romaji though...funny that they didn't include English translations)
The booklet is amazing/stunning/beautiful

Still haven't listened to it all the way through but I really like RIVER and Baby! Baby! Baby! Baby!

I actually don't remember that track xDDD I'll listen to the whole collection again later

[dreamland2.0]

It's track #3
大声ダイヤモンド

[Amrai-chan]

You really like 大声ダイヤモンド don't you? lol It's a good song so I don't blame you.

So I had 愛しきナターシャ (Itoshiki Natasha) stuck in my head last night and all day today and it's just starting to unstick itself.

My favorite proformance of the song would be the shuffle version they did...



Too bad it's not the whole song. Have any of you guys ever had a AKB song stuck in your head and do you have a favorite shuffle version of a AKB song?

Also...

DiVA preview



I'm so excited. I think I see Sae.

But a subgroup with Saeyaka! (and Yuka and Umeda!) I want all the versions of this single.

I'm going to update the first post. I had been meaning too but didn't. We'll be at 500 posts soon anyway but at least if I work on the first post it will be organized for the next thread.

[dreamland2.0]

Yes OMFG excited about DiVA Sae and Yuka for the win! But I like all the members!! It's going to be so awesome!!
I love Itoshiki Natasha! (Haachan <3)
My favourite shuffle (that I can remember) is End Roll from Surprise wa Arimasen!!
Oh and Aachan singing Yuki's solo from B5~
I alwayyyysss have AKB songs in my head~~

And yes I love Oogoe~~ ♥ I can listen to it over and over and over.....

I think we should use the same title for the next thread! I just love it too much!!
If you want I can make a banner for the first post?

[Amrai-chan]

The End Roll shuffle was awesome.

One of the many good things about getting an AKB song stuck in your head is that are so many.

Yeah I think we should keep the thread title too. I was thinking of using


in the first post but hey a banner works too or even a banner with the picture so sure.

[dreamland2.0]

I hope I made it more pretty

[Amrai-chan]

That works! It looks good. Putting it in the first post now. (Also added a little news section and I am working on the members section at the moment.)

[Amrai-chan]

Not to double post but we know how Mariko, Haruna and a few others have Twitter. Guess who has it now?

Sayaka! Funny because I was just going to start writing her a letter. XD I still will but yeah. I have be fangirling as you can imagine.

That's not all!

Ayaka Umeda also has one!

Yuka has one too! Unfortunately it looks like Sae don't have one yet.

[Zemus]

^ Awesome!

Kobayashi Kana also created one recently.

Others with Twitter:

Tomochin, Harukyan, Miho, Tomoomi, Sato Sumire, Moeno.

[Amrai-chan]

Thanks for those

I've mostly caught up with AKBINGO! I'm going to start watching Sakura kara no Tegami. Too bad only the first episode is subbed so far.

[OogoeDiamond]

we're the team K! ~~~ This song is marvelous!

[Amrai-chan]

I'm sure you have seen it if you visit Stage48 but all the girls are fine.

See here for tweets and blog updates from the girls. Seems like the theater is damaged so it's going to be closed until they can see how much damage has been done and fix it.

Some of the girls are in Guam.

I'm just relived everyone is safe.

[dreamland2.0]

Oh no that's sad about the theatre
