AKB48: Welcome to Japan's Most Sophisticated Show (2nd thread)

[Amrai-chan]

Hopefully it will be.

omg omg help guys I cannot for the life of me figure out who this is!!!!!!!

[Polyrhythm]

^SKE48's Matsui Jurina

....who btw should not be in any AKB singles . Seriously I don't get her appeal....and she's already the center of SKE

but the true WTF moment comes with Matsui Rena....that girl is just......weird.

[dreamland2.0]

^but you see it is not her!! She's in it later and her hair is completely different but it really looks like her I know.
lol I'm scared of Rena after watching Majisuka Gakuen.

see here's Jurina here:



unless it's because they changed her hair for the other part of the PV...... omg so confused~~

[Polyrhythm]

That's Jurina lol. They just changed her hair for the dance parts.

[dreamland2.0]

ah okay okay xD well she should get bangs because she looks really cute like that
oh and thank you polyrhythm!!!

[dreamland2.0]

ahhh I caved in and watched the new team PVs
Team K :Q______________________
OMG so amazing.....................

[Ranma Matsuri]

Finally preorders are up, gawd... not that I can preorder anything now but still...

So happy and excited for Tomochin's single. I wanna blindly order all versions but my wallet can't possibly handle it so I'll have to wait and choose one. ;__;

[Amrai-chan]

I'm going to wait for previews.

[dreamland2.0]

Yay yay CD Japan shipped my group calendar already!!!!!!!!
I think I'm just going to rip off Sae's picture and put it on my wall right away

[LacusClyne]

Great choices for the medley. LOL! They played the PV for Heavy Rotation lmao....must have been distracting....I hope they come back to LA this summer so they can sing Heavy Rotation

[adantatu2]

JapanesewordsMAYBE is a nice song! I'm gonna download that single!!!
thanks for the performance

[Polyrhythm]

iiwake Maybe is their best single song IMO.

[Ranma Matsuri]

I swear there are few things cuter than Yuko starting off Hebirote. I loved her, Tomochin's and Sae's hairstyles for this performance, Acchan's isn't new but she should always keep it styled that way because it suits her so well.

Great performance, not much of a fan of Aitakatta (or any of their pre-2009 singles lol) but it still was a good choice of medley and the girls were so energetic throughout. Would've been great to have been in that audience.

For me, RIVER is their best single A-side and the best full single is Hebirote.

lol they should have the PV playing in the background too... if they're lucky, some outraged parents will be in the audience. Their popularity here would skyrocket.

[visionfactory]

ヘビーローテーション I love this song, I hate the choreography
会いたかった it's always good to see Aitakatta in an AKB medley
言い訳Maybe this one was LIVE! and everytime that AKB performs live I say to myself 'Yuko can't sing, she shouldn't be allowed to sing live' but I'm glad they performed live once again!

[LacusClyne]

i'm sad... i just wanna rewatch the performance, and the video had been remove!!!!

[Amrai-chan]

Here is the performance again:

Heh I've been meaning to get Sayaka and Sae's calenders. I saw previews and they both looked awesome.

[Bigtop]

Things could get really interesting next week...

this's going to be interesting in getting 3 artistes to sing a special Christmas medley

I really can imagine/visualise ARASHI & AKB48 singing/dancing to Aitakatta , that will be so

[dreamland2.0]

uhhh I really doubt they are going to perform together. xD
just they're going to perform Christmas songs one right after another.
AKB will probably perform Yoyaku shita Christmas
