Say what!!? 48group shuffle

Today the big shuffle concert AKB48 Group Daisokaku Matsuri ~Jidai wa Kawaru. Dakedo, Bokuraha Mae Shika Mukanee!~ (ＡＫＢ４８グループ大組閣祭り～時代は変わる。 だけど、僕らは前しか向かねえ！～) finally took place. It was so hard waiting for this but now it's finally over.. There were some big surprises and it definetely was a BIG shuffle!!
First, the STAFF changes:

STAFF
AKB48 Group General Manager: Kayano Shinobu
Head of AKB48 Customer Center: Togasaki Tomonobu

AKB48 Theater Manager: Yuasa Hiroshi
SKE48 Theater Manager: Imamura Etsuro, Shiba Kazuya (kenkyuusei)
NMB48 Theater Manager: Kaneko Takeshi
HKT48 Theater Manager: Ozaki Atsuki, Sashihara Rino

Soukantoku: Takahashi Minami
AKB48 Group Kenkyuusei “Society President” (研究生会会長) and Lifetime Honorary Kenkyuusei: Matsumura Kaori


Sorry, but as I'm not really informed about the staff I can only comment on the members being here.. :'D Wait, Shinobu?? And TGSK is what???
Takamina and Sasshi both kept their place and WTF are they doing with Kaotan?? It's funny though..
But let's look at every team now. I did something with the colours:

TEAM A
TEAM K
TEAM B
TEAM 4
TEAM S
TEAM KII
TEAM E
TEAM N
TEAM M
TEAM BII
TEAM H
TEAM KIV
SNH48
NOGIZAKA46
DRAFT MEMBER
PROMOTION
TRANSFER
KENNIN

I hope with the help of that it's easier to understand who comes from wich team. I tried to use the original colours and all the draft members are violet.. The kennin Team is always cursive, while the real Team is normal. This is to see who comes from which team originally!!
Have fun.. xD

AKB48

Team A
Captain: Takahashi Minami
Vice Captain: Nakamura Mariko (from Team B)

Ichikawa Manami (promotion),
Iriyama Anna
Katayama Haruka (from Team B)
Kawaei Rina
Kojima Natsuki(from Team B)
Kojima Haruna (from Team B)
Shimazaki Haruka (from Team B)
Takahashi Minami
Takita Kayoko (draft member)
Tatsuya Makiho (promotion)
Nakata Chisato (from Team K)
Nakanishi Chiyori (transfer from HKT48)
Nakamura Mariko (from Team B)
Nishiyama Rena (draft member)
Fujita Nana (from Team K)
Furuhata Nao (kennin, from Team K; Team KII, former Team E)
Maeda Ami (from Team K)
Matsui Sakiko
Miyawaki Sakura (kennin; Team KIV)
Muto Tomu (from Team K)
Morikawa Ayaka
Yagura Fuuko (kennin; Team M)


Honestly, I'm already pretty shocked.. What happened to Team A?? Only 5 (+1 kennin) stayed here!! They are the pushed members Annin, Rina and Fuuko, always-Team-A-member Takamina, Sakiko and I-don't-know-her-why-is-she-still-in-Team-A Ayaka (honestly, she's so not popular..).
The Team K shuffles are Chisato, Nana, Nao, Ami and Tomu. I can live with the first three but DAMN, both Ami and Tomu in Team A.. I love them so much and want them to stay in my favourite team *pout*. Well, they all fit Team A, so it's okay..
The Team B shuffles are Haachan, Kojiharu, Paruru (!!) and NakaMari. Not so many surprises here.. I'm pretty happy for Kojiharu and Paruru was obvious, wasn't it?? xD
There are two members from HKT: Sakura as a kennin and Chiyori as a transfer.. Kennin is understandable but what about Chiyori?? :O Well, I don't really know her, but she must be shocked..
The two draft members finally joined and there are two promotions: Ichikawa Manami and Tatsuya Makiho. I'm sorry but I don't know them.. Well congratulations girls. :D

Breakdown: 5 original + 1 original Kennin, 5 Team K, 4 Team B, 2 promotions, 2 drafties, 2 Kennin, 1 transfer = 22

A whole new Team A!! Well, there are now only Takamina, Kojiharu, Paruru and Rina as senbatsu members here.. perhaps again Annin? And perhaps soon Sakura.. This will be interesting. xD

Team K
Captain: Yokoyama Yui (from Team A)
Vice Captain: Kitahara Rie

Aigasa Moe (from Team 4)
Abe Maria
Ishida Haruka (from Team B)
Iwasa Misaki (from Team B)
Uchida Mayumi
Kojima Mako (from Team 4)
Kitahara Rie
Kodama Haruka (kennin, from Team A; Team H)
Kobayashi Kana
Goto Moe (draft member)
Shimada Haruka
Shimoguchi Hinana (draft member)
Suzuki Shihori
Suzuki Mariya (kennin from Team A; SNH48)
Tano Yuka (from Team A)
Nagao Mariya
Nonaka Misato (from Team B)
Matsui Jurina (kennin; Team S)
Miyazaki Miho
Yamamoto Sayaka (kennin; Team N)
Yumoto Ami (promotion)
Yokoyama Yui (from Team A)

Now it's time for my favourite team!! And wow 8 (+1 Kennin) stayed. That's at least better than Team A!! They are: AbeMari, Ucchi, Rie, Kana, Haruu, Shihori, Mariya, Jurina and Miho. Jurina is still a kennin? Well, let's see how good her health will be in a a few months. Happy for the others though, especially for Maria, Mariyagi, Miho and Rie (yeay, sub-captain!!).
The Team A shuffles are Haruppi, Mariya, Yuka and Yui. Woohooooo Yui and Yuka. :D Wow, especially Yuka, this is sooo cool!!! And Yui as captain is also pretty good! Aaand we have wMariya in here now.. + Maria, this will be fun! But why Haruppi?
The Team B shuffles are Harukyan, Wasami and Misato. Seriously, there's not that much to comment, it's cool though that Harukyan is finally a Team K member (perhaps they will perform Ai no Iro at some point ;)).
The Team 4 shuffles are Moe and Mako. Yeay for Moe and WTF for Mako.. :'D To me she just belongs to 4 or even A, but K??? Well, I like her, so let's see how that will turn out!! (she does look a bit like Yuko...)
The only NEW kennin is Yamamoto Sayaka. LET THAT SINK IN!! The holy Sayanee.. O.O Wow, I mean.. let's just overpower Team K with all sister group centers, right?? :'D But I looove her, and she will be great in this team.. ;)
The two drafties got added (yeay for wMoe) and there is one promotion: Yumoto Ami! Wow, so cool for her.. especially since she and Moe were chosen by Sayaka and Tomochin it's so great that they are both in this Team now. :D I'm kind of really happy with this team, even though it's sad that Yuka and Tomu still aren't in the same team.. Yeay let's just switch them.. And with the many big names it's pretty clear which members will get overshadowed..

Breakdown: 8 originals + 1 original Kennin, 4 Team A, 3 Team B, 2 Team 4, 1 new Kennin, 2 Drafties, 1 Promotion = 22

I still really like this Team K. Yuka and Jurina in one team.. *-*
Senbatsu members are Jurina, Sayanee, Mako and Yui.. looks good I would say (even though 2 are only kennin..)

Team B
Captain: Kuramochi Asuka (from Team K)
Vice Captain: Oya Shizuka

Ikoma Rina (kennin, Nogizaka46) Izuta Rina (from Team A)
Uchiyama Natsuki (from Team 4)
Umeta Ayano (from Team 4)
Oshima Ryoka (from Team A)
Oya Shizuka
Owada Nana (promotion)
Ogasawara Mayu (transfer from NMB48 Team N)
Kashiwagi Yuki (kennin to Team N)
Kawamoto Saya (draft member)
Kuramochi Asuka (from Team K)
Takajo Aki (kennin cancelled)
Takahashi Juri (from Team A)
Takeuchi Miyu
Tanabe Miku
Tomonaga Mio (kennin; Team KIV)
Natori Wakana
Nozawa Rena (kennin cancelled)
Hashimoto Hikari (from Team 4)
Hirata Rina (from Team K)
Fukuoka Seina (promotion)
Yokoshima Aeri (draft member)
Watanabe Mayu (from Team A)

In Team B there are the 6 original members Shichan, Yukirin, Akicha, Miyu, Iku and Wakana. Wow, this is as bad as Team A.. :'D And Akicha's kaigai finally got cancelled.. (was to be accepted..). Yukirin to Team N?????????????????????????? (will talk about that there..)
The Team A shuffles are Izuta Rina, Ryoka, Juri and Mayu, MAYUYU IS BACK!! Mayuki is together again.. and the whole fandom parties happily.. for a few seconds only because the other surprises are a shock.. lol xD Juri and Ryoka to B? Why not.. xD they are cute.. and Juri has the same creepiness Yukirin has!!!
The Team K shuffles are only Mocchi, Rena and Hirari. Mocchi in B? As CAPTAIN? Wow, congrats girl.. Oh no, Hillary isn't in K anymore.. -.- and Rena's kaigai also got cancelled.. *sigh*
The Team 4 shuffles are Natsuki, Ayano and Hikari. I guess I should learn some names, because I don't know them..
Transfer from NMB: Maachun. :O Whut???? WTF? Machun in B?? Yeay for wMayu but whaaat? Sorry, this is odd. Hope she will still shine as much as in NMB..
Kennin for Mio. Well.. okay. Right, one of the most surprising things is of course this.. Rina in AKB.. This will be interesting for sure, but I don't think anyone wanted something like this. Nogizaka isn't a real sister group but anyways...
Drafties added..
And promotion of Fukuoka Seina and another very unimportant girl we've never seen before.. WTF, it's Owada Nana!!! :O LOL, okay push her even more.. I like her :)

Breakdown: 6 original, 4 Team A, 3 Team K, 3 Team 4, 1 transfer, 2 Kennin, 2 Drafties, 2 Promotions =23

A pretty mixed new Team B I would say.. I kind of like it though!! Yukirin and Mayuyu are the only star emmebrs thoguh..

Team 4
Captain: Minegishi Minami
Vice Captain: Kizaki Yuria (transfer from SKE48 Team S)

Iwatate Saho
Okawa Rio (promotion)
Omori Miyu (from Team B)
Okada Ayaka
Okada Nana
Kato Rena (from Team B)
Kizaki Yuria (transfer from SKE48 Team S)
Kitazawa Saki
Kotani Riho (kennin; Team M)
Kobayashi Marina (from Team A)
Komiyama Haruka(promotion)
Sasaki Yukari (from Team A)
Sato Kiara (promotion)
Shinozaki Ayana
Shibuya Nagisa (kennin; Team BII)
Tsuchiyasu Mizuki (promotion)
Nishino Miki
Maeda Mitsuki
Minegishi Minami
Mukaichi Mion (promotion)
Murayami Yuiri
Mogi Shinobu

Team 4 has still most of its original members: Saho, Ayaka, Naachan, Saki, Ayana, Miki, Mitsuki, Miichan, Yuiri and Mogi. 10 members, wow. Naachan and Miki stay together without Mako.. *sob*
The Team A shuffles are Marina and Yukari, which is okay I guess.. They both fit the image. xD
The Team B shuffles are Miyu and Rena. Miyu fits in either B and 4, so it's okay. And Rena? Well, I don't really care...
More interesting: Yuria gets transferred and is co-captain.. WHAT??? I mean, okay.. Why not.. :'D
Then there are two kennins for Ripopo and Nagisa. Hey, I like them both.. But I think it's kind of unecessary, isn't it??
Then there are 5 (!!) promotions: Rio, Haruka, Kiara, Mizuki and Mion. Bam, bam, BAM. And with that we don't have any kenkyuusei anymore.. Good for them, especially for Mizuki and I kind of like Haruka's smile.. :)

Breakdown: 10 original, 2 Team A, 2 Team B, 1 transfer, 2 kennins, 5 Promotions = 22

Well, I don't know but Im not thaat interested in this team. I still don't know many Team 4 members and my only favourite here is Naachan, though I like some of these cute girls..

Future AKB48 senbatsu:
Team A: Takamina, Nyan, Rina, Annin, Paruru
Team K: Jurina, Sayanee, Mako, Yui
Team B: Mayuyu, Yukirin,
Team 4: Yuria, Miichan

Damn that's already 13 and what's with sister groups except for JuriSaya??

SKE48

Team S
Leader: Miyazawa Sae (kennin; SNH48)
Vice Captain: Sato Mieko (from Team KII)

Azuma Rion (from Team E)
Iwata Karen (transfer from AKB48 Team A)
Oya Masana
Kaneko Shiori (from Team E)
Kitagawa Ryoha (promotion)
Kito Momona (from Team E)
Goto Risako
Sato Mieko (from Team KII)
Takeuchi Mai (from Team KII)
Tanaka Natsumi (kennin, Team H)
Tsuzuki Rika
Deguchi Aki
Nakanishi Yuka
Futamura Haruka (from Team KII)
Matsui Jurina (kennin to Team K)

Miyazawa Sae (kennin; SNH48)
Miyamae Ami (from Team E)
Yakata Miki
Yamauchi Suzuran (transfer from AKB48 Team B)
Watanabe Miyuki (kennin, former Team B; Team BII from Team N)


Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah...
So here we have 7 original members, which is okay: Ooya, Risako, Rika, Aki, Yuka, Jurina and Miki. Jurinaaa.. Waaaah, she's still in S. I also like her in K, but I wish she would only be in one.. Also, Yuka!
The Team KII shuffles are Mieko, Mai and Haruka. Congrats for Mieko being co-captain.. and for being with other 1st gens!! Yeay for Harutamu because damn, she's awesome!!
The Team E shuffles are Rion, Shiori, Momona and Miyamae Ami. It gets even better.. xD I'm especially happy because of Rion and Ami. So many newbies I like are here.. :D
There are 3 (!) kennins in this team: BOSS - damn, wow, OMG, that's so cool!!!
Miruki - whaaaaaaaaaaa??? :OOO why?? Okay, this just doesn't fit at all, sorry..
and BAM, BAM, BAM: Sae-chan.
-dead-
Eh?? Okay, sorry but this is so shocking. Sae is the captain of Team S, let that sink in! Well, I'm actually pretty happy, as Team S is my favourite Team after Team K (before the SKE shuffle.. and now!!). This means we will see more Sae, yeay. But won't this be hard for her? And what will the SKE fans say? Let's just hope this will be well recieved..
Going on, there are also two tranfers: Karen and Ran Ran.. -dead again-
Wow, this group is full of Ikemens and perverts now.. xD These two are cool, I approve!
Then we have the one draft member and one promotion.. You won't ever guess who it is: our little UHA! Also, not surprising.. I don't know how she will survive being close to Sae.. ;) Damn, Saee.. uwuu
Sae and Jurina in one team again!!! Yatta!!

Breakdown: 7 original, 3 Team KII, 4 Team E, 3 Kennins, 2 Transfers, 1 Draftie, 1 Promotion = 21

I kind of like this team, even though I'm worried yet happy about Sae. I do hope she gets a good placement here, right after Jurina!! Let's hope they won't push Ryouha, Rion &co above her.. And let's not forget about Milky.. This is odd.. xD

Team KII
Leader: Furukawa Airi
Vice Captain: Oba Mina (transfer from AKB48 Team B, former Kennin)

Abiru Riho (from Team S)
Arai Yuki (draft member)
Ishida Anna (from Team S)
Uchiyama Mikoto
Ego Yuna (from Team S)
Oba Mina (transfer from AKB48 Team B, former Kennin)
Kato Tomoko
Kitano Ruka (promotion)
Kinoshita Yukiko (from Team E)
Goudo Saki (draft member)
Soda Sarina (draft member)
Takagi Yumana
Takashima Yurina (transfer from AKB48 Team 4)
Takatsuka Natsuki (draft member)
Takayanagi Akane (kennin to Team BII)
Hidaka Yuzuki (promotion)
Furukawa Airi
Furuhata Nao (from Team E; kennin to Team A, former Team K)
Mizuno Honoka (from Team E)
Yamashita Yukari
Yamada Nana (kennin, Team M)
Yamada Mizuho

The 7 members Mikoto, Tomoko, Yumana, Churi, Airin, Yukari and Mizuho all stayed in this team. That's also okay. At least Furuyanagi is still together and Airin is captain. Beware lolis.. o.O But I guess Churi will help her a bit.. if she isn't involved in NMB too much.. WTF?)
The Team S shuffles are Riho, Anna and Yuna. Sorry, but for me this seems as if Anna's startime will be over soon.. And sadly Riho got seperated from Jurina.. :'( poor girl..
The Team E shuffles are Yukiko, Nao and Honoka. Yukko is in da house!! Yossh!!
The new Kennin is Nana.. WTH? Nana? Okay, why not..
Then there are two transfers: Oba Mina and Tashima Yurina. I don't really know Yurina, but good for Oba, as she seemed to be getting along with them well.. :)
Drafties got added and we have two promotions: Ruka and Yuzuki! Don't know them, sorry..

Breakdown: 7 originals, 3 Team S, 3 Team E, 1 Kennin, 2 Transfers, 4 Drafties, 2 Promotions = 22

This is also a whole new Team KII, but to me it seems as if it lacks a bit of star power now. At least Furuyanagi are still in and Nana is also great!

Team E
Leader: Suda Akari (from Team KII)
Vice Leader: Umemoto Madoka

Iguchi Shiori
Isohara Kyoka (from Team S)
Ichino Narumi
Iwanaga Tsugumi
Umemoto Madoka
Owaki Arisa (promotion)
Kato Rumi (from Team KII)
Kimoto Kanon
Kumazaki Haruka (promotion)
Koishi Kumiko (draft member)
Kobayashi Ami (from Team KII)
Saito Makiko (from Team S)
Sakai Mei
Sato Sumire (transfer from AKB48 Team A)
Shibata Aya (from Team KII)
Suda Akari (from Team KII)
Takatera Sana (draft member)
Tani Marika (transfer from HKT48, Team KIV)
Fukushi Nao (draft member)
Matsui Rena (kennin to Nogizaka46)
Yamada Reika

There are still 8 members from the original E, which is okay, at least half of it is still there: Shiori, Narumi, Tsugumi, Ume-chan, Kanon, Mei, Rena and Reika. Although, what's with Rena getting a kennin in Nogi???? o.O I thought she already was busy enough.. Well at least NonMei is still together.. ;)
The Team S shuffles are Kyoka and Makiko, two cool members!
The Team KII shuffles are Rumi, Ami, Aya and Akarin. Damn, that Suda captain.. I LOLed soo hard!! xD But really? Rena, Akarin, Kanon and Aya in one team??? That screams starpower!!
There are two transfers: Suuchan and Tani. Like them both, but don't really understand this.. Especially Tani.. well, oookay..
Drafties got added and two promoted memebers: Arisa and Haruka. But I don't know them.. -.-

Breakdown: 8 original, 2 Team S, 4 Team KII, 2 Transfers, 3 Drafties, 2 Promotions = 21

Team E has a few VERY popular members I would say..

Future SKE senbatsu:
Team S: Jurina, Sae, Miruki, Oba, Ryouha, Rion
Team KII: Churi, Airi, Nao, Nana, Mina, Anna (?), Mizuho
Team E: Rena, Akarin, Aya, Kanon

They would be 16 wothout Anna, but perhaps they don't even keep all of the youngsters or the kennins.. We will see...

NMB48

Team N
Leader: Yamamoto Sayaka (kennin to Team K)
Vice Leader: Jonishi Kei

Ota Yuri (from Team BII)
Kashiwagi Yuki (kennin, Team B)
Kato Yuka (from Team BII)
Kikuchi Ayaka (transfer from AKB48 Team A)

Murashige Anna (kennin; Team KIV)
Muro Kanako (from Team BII)
Yamauchi Tsubasa (from Team BII)
Yamagishi Natsumi (from Team M)
Yamaguchi Yuki
Yamamoto Sayaka (kennin to Team K)
Yogi Keira (from Team M)
Yoshida Akari

8 people stayed from the original team: Rika, Narumi, Ripopo, Keichi, Aika, Yuki, Sayanee and Akari. Sayanee is still the captain and I'm happy that Keichi is co-cap!! :D
Team M shuffles are only Natsumi and Keira. Yeay, Keira!! :D
Team BII shuffles are Yuri, Uuka, Saki, Kanako and Tsubasa. Okay, that isn't bad, at least there are a few more unknown people in N now.. xD (excluding Uuka)
There are two kennins, Yukirin and Aanya. While Aanya's is pretty cool and funny I don't really understand Yukirin's.. I mean, she is super popular and I don't think NMB needs her.. Well, but I like both so it's okay..
The real shock is Ayaka's transfer. Didn't see that one coming, but there have been some interesting transfers until now..
Draftie got added!

Breakdown: 8 Team N, 2 Team N, 5 Team BII, 2 Kennins, 1 transfer, 1 Draftie = 19 

This is interesting as Team N always was the most popular in NMB. Now they probably still are, but they also gained a few unpopular girls.. which is good for the other teams though.. But what's with the stage though?? This is so silly... -.-

Team M
Captain: Yamada Nana (kennin to Team Team KII)
Vice Captain: Okita Ayaka

Akazawa Hono (from Team BII)
Azuma Yuki

Fujie Reina (transfer from AKB48 Team B)
Mita Mao
Murakami Ayaka 
Murase Sae
Yagura Fuuko (kennin to Team A)
Yamada Nana (kennin to Team Team KII)

11 people could stay: Yuki, Ayaka, Kawakami Rena, Momoka, ShimaRena, Airin, Mao, Ayaka, Saeppi, Fuuchan and Nana. Yes, they are mostly the most popular ones.. Sad that Rena isn't captain anymore, but good for nana and Ayaka!
The Team N shuffles are only Ricchan and Miru. Miruuu.. Okay.. I don't know what to say.. xD
The Team BII shuffles are Hono, Akari and Rina. I don't really know them, sorry.. :'D
The only transfer is Reinyan. WTH?? Okay, I don't understand this but anyway..
Draftie gets added and Jo gets promoted.. *yawn* what, Jo?? That one was fast. ô.O

Breakdown: 11 original, 2 Team N, 3 Team BII, 1 transfer, 1 Draftie, 1 Promotion = 19

Here doesn't happen that much. Good for the members.. Oh, and I don't really know that many of them, sorry.. :'D

Naiki Kokoro (draft member)
Hayashi Momoka (from Team N)
Yabushita Shu
Watanabe Miyuki (from Team N; kennin to Team S, former Team B)

There are 7 original members: Anna, Mirei, Emika, Konomi, Hazuki, Rikako and Shuu. Yeay, Emichii and Shuuu.. :D
The Team N shuffles are Kanako, Haruna, Momoka and Mirukii.. Lalalalala.. boring.. WAIT, Miruki?? Well, even that isn't really surprising.. xD
The Team M shuffles are Chihiro and Yui. Yuiiii..
The new Kennin is Churi.. Then fly little bird and rock with these girls.. xD
There are two transfers: Ume-chan and Miorin. Miorin is so understandable, as she had her kennin.. in N though.. But Ume-chan? Okay, interesting to see this.. xD At least she will probably be in senbatsu..
Drafties got added and Nagisa promoted.. Yossha!!

Breakdown: 7 original, 4 Team N, 2 Team M, 1 Kennin, 2 Transfers, 1 Draftie, 1 promotion = 18

Future NMB48 senbatsu:
Team N: Sayanee, Yukirin, Akari, Kei,
Team M: Nana, Fuuchan, Miru, Airi (?)
Team BII: Miruki, Shuu, Yui, Nagisa, Miori, Churi (?), Ume-chan (?)

Tomiyoshi Asuka
Tomonaga Mio

Fuchigami Mai
Miyawaki Sakura (kennin to Team A)
Murashige Anna
Motomura Aoi
Moriyasu Madoka

Also not so many new things except for Sakura's new kennin and the promotion of Kusaba Manami. Oh, and Non's kennin. That's quite funny... xD

So honestly, there weren't so many new things for HKT here, except for a few kennins etc..
They just had their shuffle, so I guess they didn't want to destroy that again..
I'm also not so well-known with them, so that's it.. :'D

Team Kaigai

Chikano Rina to JKT48

This is quite a surprise. Well, I hope it will be good for her and I wish her good luck!! :D


_________________________________________________________________________________

That's it.. Puuuuuuh, this actually took me pretty long.
I'm don't really like that Jurina still has a kennin. I mean, she already is overworked and gets enough hate. It's not her fault and she's still my oshi, but I just wished her to be in only ONE team. Team K has enough power.. Team S has enough power.. Choose one please management!!
And I'm still shocked at Sae's new position.. o.O But happy.. :)
After this shuffle I'm still a Team K oshi.. xD Some of my favourite members like Ami, Tomu and Mocchi were shuffled away, but instead there are girls like Yuka, Moe and Sayanee so I'm still happy. And hey, my foreshadowing with Yuka and Moe was right. I'm so good, man.. ;) Plus, I'm soooo happy for the YokoYamamoto.. *-* *-* *-* (Even more than for Mayuki to be honest..)
I also look forward to see that AWESOME Team S!!! *-*

But all in all there are some very unnecessary and shocking things... I don't get some transfers and the many kennins. I'm not quite sure if they will really use all of them in senbatsu. Like, will Churi really be in NMB senbatsu? This will steal sooo many senbatsu places from other girls. But with every team being bigger that 16nin now, I could imagine the senbatsu growing, too. This would be a good solution and I don't think it would make such a big difference to use 20 ore 22 places instead of 16, right??
What also surprised me was the lack of graduations/ graduation announcements. I really thought someone would do it but I guess I was wrong.. Let's see if there will be any in the near future. ;)

You could kind of see me getting more tired near the end of this post. Especially with NMB and HKT. Well, HKT wasn't too exciting but NMB is so NEW now..
Now I will sort my feelings and go to sleep..

Bye, bye, bye ;)

Attack of the lions and Nana's tree obsession

AKB48 is back with their 35th single ''Mae Shika Mukanee'' and like last time, I will again review every song seperately. Today I will take a closer look at the Smiling Lions song ''Kinou Yori  Motto Suki'' which is the 1st B-side on every edition!

First off, what's with the name ''Smiling Lions''?? Sounds cute though xD

Secondly, the Owada Nana domination goes on with this!! Seriously, she is placed as center above Tentoumu Chu (minus Mako) and even Katorena and ANNIN, with the latter being normaly a senbats umember. (But she had to do her entry exam..) This truly has to be a gem to beat away every other pushed girl in every group.. Talking about pushed girls, this line-up ONLY consists of over-pushed girls from AKB, SKE, NMB and HKT. Which means all the different YOUNG kids of their representive groups. I think the only exception is maybe Yuria, because even though being pushed, to me she already seems like an established performer, while the other girls still lack a few things. But oh well, be prepared for the future of 48group!!

About the song, actually it's only a continuation of the other boring Undergirls songs. Already the beginning shows that it's one of these boring AKBish songs.. At least it isn't as boring as Kaisoku to Doutai Shiryoku and especially the last part of the chorus, the ''Suki sugitte~'' is pretty cute. It's definetely not a song I will listen to very often, but it is at least relaxing listening to it while writing this. xP

But let's come to the video now:

The first shot already shows who the center is, as Nana draws these lines (how's such a thing called??)

Annin and Yuria seem to be the next in the song ranking. And here they play Nana's friends. They say something like: Hurry up!

But Nana isn't finished yet..

And Annin and Yuria are alls like: Well, then we will go already.. Have fun and bye, bye!!
Nice friends :'D

But now Nana is all sad because of that.. These mean friends!!

But oh wonder, she finds a cherry blossom petal!! (the real Sakura song?)

And she turns around to this big tree!!
Wohoo, let the song begin!

Wow, a typical classroom scene.. that's so similar to all of their other PV's..

And Nana is all daydreaming about her tree..

Nana: I love that tree!

The clothes and especially the hat look so cute..

Yuria

Mio

Meru

Annin - she definetely looks very pretty here!

Miki and Uha with Katorena.. pushed girls everywhere..

Gaah, these two.. TOGETHER!!! Definetely my two favourites out of the line-up! :D
Nagisa and Nana!

Fuuko, Shuu and Sakura..
also a very cute part of the line-up :D

Meru looks so evil here..
Meru: Nana, what are you doing??

Nana: Eeh.. Nothing..

Oh, she draw a tree xD Her love for the tree continues!

And finally the last few girls.. Kanon, Haruppi and Miru.. Damn, Miru!!!! :D

A chorus dance scene in front of the school.. I've seen that before, too. And loot at that, there's the tree again!

I REALLY like these seifukus :D The skirts look so damn cute *-*

And Yuria looks also cute..

Meru IS evil!! She gives the drawing to the front..

Meru: *evil laugh* Look at Nana's drawing!
Miki: Oh!

And so everyone gives the paper to their neighbours.. Is that Shuu with the derp face?? xD

And the paper finally comes to Annin, who also looks pretty evil..

Annin: What's that??

Is that a smile??

Oh, Nana fell asleep.. xD

This looks pretty cute..

And the other members bring her out. But why are there suddenly so many line-makers?? o.O

Yeay, let's all grab one of them!!

And Annin smiles again..

I changed my mind.. Rena looks better with bangs xD

Somehow it seems that Mio gets pushed more that Meru lately? Or is it just me who thinks like that?

And Saruppi kind of disappear in this video..

Nana!!! :D

And THAT smile. Wow, Nana seems so happy..

What are they drawing??

Oh no, an evil teacher.. His face looks so funny xD

Hi there you two beauties! :)

OMG, they really drew a big tree! That's why Nana is so happy.. xD

They look just like a group of friends.. :)

Hehe, it must be pretty cold there..

Oh no! The teacher saw them!!

Yeay, they just run away..

And of course here we see Nana with again some Sakura petals..

And the tree :o

At last, Nana turns around and looks exactly into the camera, while the other girls are running away..
Wow, she really is a cutie!

Somehow I really got ''Kimi no koto ga suki dakara'' vibes from this song.. xD It definetely is a typical Undergirls... To me it seems like Annin and Yuria aren't really nice in the beginning as they were probably thinking about their later activities.. they probably didn't even notice they hurt Nana. But when they see her drawing, they realize it was wrong and draw the big tree. I don't know why Nana is obsessed with trees and Sakura petals though.. But this doesn't seem odd compared to Acchan eating them, right?? xD
Anyways, I really like the natural look of the PV and as I mentioned I REALLY adore the seifukus. They are just so damn cute *-*. The members don't do much except for looking cute, but that's fine. I think that the relaxing tone of the song really fits this kind of video, even though both aren't the most original in their discography.
