AKB48 41st Single Senbatsu Sousenkyo


Yesterday was the AKB48 41st Single Senbatsu Sousenkyo. It was the 7th Election, my personal 3rd election, the 2nd election that I participated in (I voted once again for Jurina) and the first election that I watched with two friends (because I have friends who like AKB now, hehe). I was once again very excited and even though I didn't have a lot of time lately I was still looking forward to this event a lot! With many of the members not participating (most importantly Rena and Kojiharu) there were quite a few places that could be filled.


Up-coming Girls

80 Motomura Aoi HKT48 Team KIV (13,116) (48)


At the last place we have Aoi-tan. she dropped quite a few places, which makes me sad. :/ Especially since you will see that a LOT of HKT48 members ranked so much higher.

79 Ichikawa Miori NMB48 Team BII (13,160) (53)


Lemon dropped a lot, too. But she was still happpy that she could rank. the competition really becomes a lot harder.

78 Shinozaki Ayana AKB48 Team K (13,167) NEW


I don't know Ayana that well, but I'm happy for her. :D

77 Ishida Anna SKE48 Team KII (13,269) NEW


Yessss, Anna finally ranked. She was pushed a lot but she never gained that much popularity. In my opinion she grew up and is an amazing performer. Anna is probably the best dance in 48group as of right now! And she is still young, so I hope she will continue to shine bright. :)

76 Takeuchi Mai AKB48 Team S (13,539) NEW


Wow. I didn't expect MaiMai to rank, but I'm soooo happy. :o Like seriously, this is such a nice surprise. And she was so shocked, she didn't even believe it. xD

75 Owada Nana AKB48 Team A (13,685) NEW


I was a bit surprised to see Naanya that low after all the push she is getting. But still nice to see her finally ranking.
74 Tanigawa Airi NMB48 Team M (13,744) NEW


Woohoo, Airi finally ranked!

73 Kumazaki Haruka SKE48 Team E (13,777) NEW


Kuma-chan is another new ranker. Yeayy :3

72 Ueki Nao HKT48 Team H (13,961) NEW


I don't really know her that well, but congrats. :D

71 Ishida Haruka AKB48 Team K (14,319) (57)


Harukyan dropped a few ranks but she is still staying strong in the election. :)

70 Kamata Natsuki SKE48 Team E (14,545) NEW


The only girl out of this year's election that I don't know. :'D She has just been promoted to Team E, so I dont feel that bad about it. Anyways, congratularions. :)

69 Nagao Mariya AKB48 Team K (14,585) (65)


Sadly Yagi dropped a few places again. :/ That's really sad.

68 Umemoto Madoka SKE48 Team E (14,605) (-)


The first girl this year to stay at the same place. But it's okay, she seemed to be still happy.

67 Omori Miyu AKB48 Team 4 (14,669) NEW


MIYUPON!!! Kyaaah, she finally ranked. 12th gen for the win!!

66 Kitagawa Ryouha SKE48 Team S & AKB48 Team 4 (14,674) NEW


Our cute little Ryoha-tan ranked. *-* This makes me really happy, I feared she wouldn't make it.

65 Saito Makiko SKE48 Team E (14,916) (75)


And the Up-coming Girls cnter is Makiko!!! She rose 10 places which is awesome. I'm ooking forward to her being center. :3

All in all there are a lot of new ranked girls, especially from sister groups. A very interesting line-up if you ask me. And because of Makiko center I expect something cool.

Future Girls

64 Yoshida Akari NMB48 Team N (14,933) (72)


First we have Akarin. I actually guessed she would be at this place when the announcer said NMB48 Team N. xP I'm happy she is back in Future Girls :)

63 Yamauchi Suzuran SKE48 Team S (15,157) (69)


Ran Ran ranks up again!!! :D believe me, it's because of her hair. :p

62 Kato Rumi SKE48 Team E  (15,474) NEW


Rumiiiii!! Yeay, so cool. SKE48 is really slaying.

61 Azuma Rion SKE48 Team S (15,539) NEW


Yeayy, Azumarion. :D

60 Yabushita Shu NMB48 Team BII (15,666) (59)


Shuu ranks down one place but that's still acceptable. Kusogaki forever!

59 Kato Yuuka NMB48 Team N (15,729) NEW


Uuuka ranks in and I'm happy.

58 Shibuya Nagisa NMB48 Team BII & AKB48 Team 4 (16,386) NEW


It was so nice to see Nagisa smiling on that stage. :D

57 Mogi Shinobu AKB48 Team K (16,867) NEW


Mogiiiiiii!!! Yosssh, she finally ranked. But she looked like she wasn't feeling well before her speech. :'D

56 Umeda Ayaka NMB48 Team BII (17,019) (35)


Hm, I expected Ume-chan to rank down. It's still sad.. :/

55 Souda Sarina SKE48 Team KII (17,071) NEW


First Draft girl ever to rank!!!! :D I'm really happy to see her here since she's such a funny girl. ^^

54 Kotani Riho NMB48 Team N (17,123) (61)


Ripopo ranks up. :D

53 Isohara Kyoka SKE48 Team E (17,278) (53)


But sadly Kyon ranks down. :/ And that after she finally got into SKE48 senbatsu. Well, but at least she's still there.

52 Goto Risako SKE48 Team S (17,330) NEW


YESSSSSS!!! I was nearly crying. Finally.. Finally something good happened to Gorisa. She's such an amazing girl so I'm really happy. *-*

51 Matsuoka Natsumi HKT48 Team H (17,387) (64)


Nacchan is still rising. :D

50 Sasaki Yukari AKB48 Team A (17, 466) (47)


Yukarun dropped 3 places, but front of Future Girls is still amazing. :D

49 Sato Sumire SKE48 Team E (17,579) NEW


Aaaand Suuchan is finally ranking again. :D It's probably because of Ambulance :P But jokes aside, I'm happy to see her again. She's getting along well with the other SKE girls which is nice to see. :)

Because of the Suuchan center I'm really hoping for a sexy song for this group. :3

Next Girls

48 Kimoto Kanon SKE48 Team E (18,021) (50)


Non rises two places and is in Next Girls now. Seems like she is stable around this place now and won't rise that much anymore.

47 Tano Yuka AKB48 Team K (18,048) (45)


NOOOO!! No, noo... Why does Tano-chan continue dropping?? ._.

46 Kojina Yui HKT48 Team H (18,080) NEW


Best speech ever!! What's with the Yui's all almost breaking down on stage?? And the mirror, hahaha. XD

45 Miyamae Ami SKE48 Team S (18,245) NEW


Yeayyy, Anmi is here!

44 Mukaichi Mion AKB48 Team K (18,392) NEW


I'm so happy to see Mion that high. She's my favourite 15th gen, so yeaaaaah.

43 Moriyasu Madoka HKT48 Team KIV (19,401) (25)


Madoka dropped quite a bit, which is sad.

42 Okada Kanna HKT48 Team KIV (19,739) NEW


Oh yes, I'm so happy for Kanna. ^-^

41 Ota Aika HKT48 Team KIV (19,921) (42)


And Love-tan is still staying strong.

40 Yagura Fuuko NMB48 Team M (20,354) (41)


Fuuchan only ranks up one place.

39 Uchiyama Natsuki AKB48 Team B (20,437) (63)


Nakkiiiii! That's quite a big jump.

38 Futamura Haruka SKE48 Team S (20,598) (34)


After that awesome ranking last year Harutamu drops 4 places. Well, she's still pretty high so I'm happy. :D

37 Sakaguchi Riko HKT48 Team H (20,936) (60)


Wow, Rikopi isn't as high as she was in the prelims, but this rank is still soooo good! Now make her into HKT senbatsu!!!

36 Jonishi Kei NMB48 Team N (21,135) (36)


Keicchi is finally in Next Girls again. And think she will continue doing so great. :)

35 Fujie Reina NMB48 Team M (21,388) (33)


Reinyan continues to be one of the most stable members ever. xD

34 Shiroma Miru NMB48 Team M (21,577) (43)


And Mirurun is still rising, being the 3rd NMB48 member now.

33 Anai Chihiro HKT48 Team H (22,146) (39)


And our Next Girls Center is Kyappu. :3 I'm reaaaaally happy for her.

Another interesting line-up!!

Undergirls

32 Tashima Meru HKT48 Team H (22,191) (38)


Meru makes Undergirls, which is really cool. In my opinion she bloomed the last year. :D

31 Fuchigami Mai HKT48 Team KIV (22,487) NEW


Wow, Mai got really high. :o

30 Takajo Aki AKB48 Team K (22,502) (26)


To be honest, I expected Akicha to drop a lot more. But she seems to be a stable Undergirls member by now. :)

29 Okada Nana AKB48 Team 4 (23,237) (51)


Yess, Naachan ranks in Undergirls. *-* So amazing!

28 Kato Rena AKB48 Team B (24,569) (32)


Renacchi is still rising and she gets even more beautiful everytime I see her. I especially love her smile and she's so much more interesting now.

27 Oba Mina SKE48 Team KII (24,708) (56)


At this point I didn't even believe Minarun would still rank. :'D My friend predicted her to be very high and I was like: Naaaah.. But Minarun surprised us all. :O It's really cool to see her being loved my SKE48 members and fans alike. :D So, congratulations.

26 Kojima Mako AKB48 Team 4 (25,110) (36)


I expected Kojimako to make Undergirls by now. So happy to see her here. :D

25 Takahashi Juri AKB48 Team 4 (25,241) (28)


The new Team 4 captain keeps rising. I'm so proud of my 12th gen girls. *-*

24 Furuhata Nao SKE48 Team KII (25,650) (55)


I'm surprised to see Nao so high, but I'm happy for her. :D

23 Tani Marika SKE48 Team E (26,051) NEW


Yeay, Tani. She didn't make it to Senbatsu, but this is the best increase of this year. :) So happy for her. XD

22 Kizaki Yuria AKB48 Team B (26,994) (23)


Hm, Yuria is getting really stable around the 22/23 places. with all the push she's getting, that's a bit odd, but okay.

21 Tomonaga Mio HKT48 Team KIV & AKB48 Team 4 (28,197) (27)


Mioten!!!! HKT keeps slaying. :o

20 Oya Mayana SKE48 Team S (30,021) (30)


Wow, I already knew that Masana's fans were hardcore, but they went all out this year. I'm soooo happy for her. :3

19 Minegishi Minami AKB48 Team K (35,506) (22)


To be honest I didn't expect Miichan to make it back to Senbatsu. This is a very nice rank given the fact that there was a lot of competition. :)

18 Suda Akari SKE48 Team E (43,665) (10)


The biggest shock of the day. WTF??? I expected her to be in the Top10 again and then this?? She's not even senbatsu naymore.. Dasu was sooo sad, it was really hard to watch. She was crying the whole time and didn't even look to the camera. ._. For me it was even sadder than Milky last year. :/ I hope she will smile again soon. :)

17 Kodama Haruka HKT48 Team H & AKB48 Team K (43,985) (21)


And our Undergirls center is Haruppi. I can understand that she was sad about being so close to senbatsu. But she will defintely make it next year. :D

I kind of really like this Undergirls line-up. Except for Akari, who should be in senbatsu. But still, it's a nice group and I look forward to their song. :)


Now it's finally time foooooooor:
Senbatsu

16 Muto Tomu AKB48 Team K (44,637) (24)


Woooooooow, Tomu made it to Senbatsu!! That's soo freaking cool! Like, she went from Future Girls, to Next Girls, to Undergirls and now to senbatsu. That's such a miracle and I'm so proud. But her speech was freaking long.. Is she the new Akarin or what? xD

15 Shibata Aya SKE48 Team E (49,199) (-)


Aya-chan stayed at the same place, but that's okay. At least she's a stable senbatsu member. :D

14 Takayanagi Akane SKE48 Team KII (52,609) (31)


CHURI IN SENBATSU!! Kyaaah, the bird is flying so high... I'm so freaking happy for her and the SKE48 fans are just so awesome. *-*

13 Matsumura Kaori SKE48 Team KII (53,667) (17)


Kaotan in senbatsu!!! Yes, yes, yeeeees!! I was waiting for this and now it finally happened.

12 Watanabe Miyuki NMB48 Team BII & Akb48 Team B  (55,715)


And Milky is BACK!!! I was expecting her to be in senbatsu again, and luckily it happened. :3 It was so sad to see her dropping last year but now she's stronger than ever. :D

11 Kitahara Rie NGT48 (61,566) (19)


After 3 years, Kitarie is also back in senbatsu. *-* Her and Milky are proving that you can always come back to senbatsu. In Kitarie's case I'm especially happy since she is such a hardworking girl. Even more now that she is the captain of the new NGT48 (even though the only have 4 members).

10 Yokoyama Yui AKB48 Team A (63,414) (13)


Yuihan is still rising and delivered a funny speech. Like, really, it's always so funny to see her almost breaking down. xD Though I hope the whole soukantoku thing isn't putting too much pressure on her. :/

09 Shimazaki Haruka AKB48 Team A (73,803) (7)


Paruru dropped!!! :o I was really shocked at first. But I can kind of understand it. Paruru isn't really a fanservice girl and I think she is too salty as of lately (even I am a bit annoyed by that). But I think this will only help her to get stronger. :)

08 Miyazawa Sae SNH48 Team SII & SKE48 Team S (75,495) (12)


Sae-chan barely misses her desired Kami7 spot but it's still such a miracle to see her that high. *-* This is her highest senbatsu place ever and it just shows how awesome her fans are. :o Especially since this is her last Senkyou. :/

07 Miyawaki Sakura HKT48 Team KIV & AKB48 Team A (81,422) (11)


I was expecting Sakuratan to get into Kami7. Even though having Sae-chan there would've been amazing, I'm still really happy for Sakura. That's a slap into the face of Sakura Haters. :D

06 Yamamoto Sayaka NMB48 Team N & AKB48 Team K (97,866) (-)


Sayanee stays at the same place, which is no surprise because of the girls in front of her. Well, she got a lot more votes, which is awesome to see. :o

05 Matsui Jurina SKE48 Team S & AKB48 Team K (105,289) (04)


Jurina sadly dropped a place. :/ But I've got the feeling she's accepting that Number 1 is still a bit more far away.. Perhaps in two years. :)

04 Takahashi Minami AKB48 Team A (137,252) (09)


And here we have Takamina. Actually, I never really believed she would make Number 1. But still, being Number 4 is such a great gift for her and I'm happy. And it's okay that Jurina dropped a place because of Takamina (luckily not because of a junior). I think this is the perfect place for Takamina. Higher would have been a bit odd, but this is fine. :) Also, her speech was awesome. Then one of my friends and I were joking: Yo, Acchan will surely come now. And she came!!!!!! :O That was so lovely. *-*


03 Watanabe Mayu AKB48 Team B (165,789) (01)


I was really happy when Mayuyu was called as number3. I didn't want her to win again this year. She really surprised me, since her speech was so mature and she seemed really happy. :)

02 Kashiwagi Yuki AKB48 Team B & NGT (167,183) (03)


Yes, Yukirin is higher than Mayu. *-* I'm a bit sad that she didn't make the number 1, but 2nd place is so cool, too. And look at her votes. :o Let's hope management gives her a solo center somwhere in the future. :)

01 Sashihara Rino HKT48 Team H (194,049) (02)

And the center is once again Sasshi!!!! And she once again shows that no one has a chance against her (Mayu fans were really special last year). I'm reaaaaaaally happy. Like I already mentioned, Yukirin also deserves a solo center, but Sasshi is just so amazing. :o I mean, look at her votes, she has almost 200,000!! Let's hope management will take her win more serious this year.



This senbatsu is just soooo awesome. *-*

So yes, I definetely enjoyed this Sousenkyo. There were a few shocks and a lot of surprises, but it was once again very, very entertaining. :) Well, it's a bit sad that SKE now has more ranked members than AKB, but I'm so happy to see girls like Gorisa ranking. :3
Well, I can see them doing even more rankings by next year tbh...
One of the best things was that the HKT48 members were partying so hard when a member of them (or Tani xD) was announced. That was just so cool to see.

So yeah, I'm already excited for next year. xD
