So I've been wanting to get a bit more into AKB48.

How many subunits are there? (I know there are groups like 'Not yet', 'no3b', etc.)

And do you guys recommend their latest album? I only have that "Godly Songs" release.

I don't, to be entirely honest. It isn't bad at all, but their singles and b-sides are so much better than anything on that album. I only REALLY like the song with Acchan and Tomochin; the rest are pretty throwaway. I'd recommend listening to Kamikyokutachi more and possibly downloading SET LIST, which has some really great songs (and a few crappy ones).

If you're just getting into them then no.

If you trying to get into them like bondingo said you should go for the singles and b-sides.

However if you do want to go for an album I'd recommend one of their stage albums.

I'd say, チームA 3rd Stage「誰かのために」this album has songs such as Bird and Dareka no Tame ni ~What can I do for someone?~

チームK 6th Studio Recording「RESET」and チームA 6th Studio Recording「目撃者」 are good too.

If you want to you should. I've been pondering changing my name to something AKB related too but I can't decide what I should change it to.
