この二人の課長になりたい

It kind of sucks having an unpopular oshi. I hope she doesn't graduate before I have the opportunity to go to a handshake event.

Please remember to be nice to Paruru~

No bullying!

>>11165857
Her expressions are getting better. Also Yui a love.

>>11165468
Not the person you asked and I have nothing against translation blogs here, but it's interesting to see how seriously many westerners take the Japanese wota's opinions in this case and many others. It's as though when the text is a translation from Japanese, they stop questioning what they read and believe just about anything. It's strange, all the more so when it's the 2ch translations we're talking about.

>>11165982
All information that the Western fans get is secondhand, so in some cases the only information we see is those dodgy sources- especially in the case of scandals where we rarely get clear official statements.
I'm not saying that people should ever believe them- but I think they're stil a somewhat valid source into what wota think/are shitposting about.

USA USA USA USA USA

>>11166043
I wonder why the US flag looks so tacky and trashy in clothes, whereas the Britain flag looks awesome...

>>11166064
Maybe it's the asymmetry.

>>11166043
holy HNNNNGGGGGGGGGG

>>11166043
btw, the caption says her body has become quite firm and that shes always exercising. firm indeed...

>>11166105
>>11166043
The airbrush in these photos is blinding. The girls are pretty enough without all this shit,

>>11166043
sauce?

>>11166283
The latest Shonen Champion, there wasn't that much that was particularly good.

>>11166374
Would anyone be so kind as to translate the questions on there by the way

>>11166380
From right to left.
-If I said summer (what comes to mind)?
-What do you want to do this summer?
-What's your best summer memory?

>>11166064
I find the opposite to be true. The British flag seems the most tacky.

>>11166043
The older she gets, the more she looks like a K-Pop idol.

>>11166421
Please elaborate, I have no idea what you mean by that. Don't K-Pop stars tend to have really small faces?

>>11166416
It's been used to death in Japan over the past 5 years or so which probably doesn't help. The American flag has too many connotations and most other flags are simply boring. The symmetry of the British flag is certainly nice for designs.

>>11166436
Blame The Sex Pistols.

>>11166432
Plastic and fake.

>>11166451
She should smile like in the rightmost portion more often. That's kind of a waste of food, though.

>>11166475
It seems to be 20 cents worth of popcorn. I'm sure it's fine. It's not like she's throwing caviar (although that would be funny).

>>11166493
When did she get so old?

>>11166451
Sour Cream & Onion chips are disgusting. Pick a good flavor like Dill Pickle.

>>11166496
When some middle aged makeup lady did her makeup.

>>11166496
It's the airbrush. Jesus, does no one in Japan know how to use photoshop? 13 year old emo girls could do a better job than this

>>11166512
No.

>>11166498
You have shit taste.

>>11166475
I agree with you regarding the smiling, I'm not into her at all, but I really like how she looks in the rightmost pic where she actually looks happy and enjoying herself. She looks really cute there.

>>11166526
That's not an airbrush though; that's image alteration.

>>11166540
It's airbrushed among other things.

>>11166496
too much stress

>>11166432
>>11166444
K-pop idols tend to get their bodies altered through surgery to be "perfect", thus the "plastic and fake". Jurina is getting it without surgery (she's still underaged and Japan avoids all that surgery stuff like plague for their idols).

>>11166567
Mio's mios are pretty... MIOS, if you know what I mean.

>>11165897
She always seems much more happier when she's with Yui.

>>11166043
>>11166108
>>11166548
Jurina will be like Mikasa in a few year's time, but given that Milky/Sayanee (oh, so heavenly perfect) are being pushed into my face most of the time I'm prolly sure they'll get ranked more next year or two.

>>11166689
Milky a shit.

>>11166668
It's okay, we get it. You can stop now.

>>11166567
The second has a stunning waist to hip ratio.
Even though I generally like large breasts, I would rate her body the highest there.
What set is that from anyway?

>>11166962
>The second
>not recognizing Natsuu
For shame.

>>11166967
She will give to intelligent children one day.

>>11166967
She will give birth to intelligent children one day.

Natsu is the prettiest HKT in my opinion. Dat fair skin and that cute mole on her face. I wish she and Rena took more pictures together

Kito finally blocked comments on her G+. lol

The Japan Society in new york is screening "The Show Must Go On", an AKB documentary in about a week
http://www.japansociety.org/event/documentary-of-akb48-no-flower-without-rain

>>11166670
Glad to hear that. I heard she's also cheerful around Tomochin, must suck she's graduating.

>>11167227
Wait, they're screening Show Must Go On or No Flower Without Rain?

Because Show Must Go On is fucking awesome and shows idols working hard at being idols, whereas No Flower Without Rain is anti-no-dating-rule propaganda.

>Mayuyu's new single
>Seifuku Identity
Mayuyu is now Mizuki Nana. Discuss.

>>11167227
Just a passerby you occasionally lurks in these threads here

I dont think that event is going to get a lot of action. I am pretty sure their popularity is near nonexistent in the us or in the west in general.

>>11167270
>Collaboration with One no Ska Band
HOLY SHIT.

Are they going to be in the lives too? Not like I'd be able to go, but still.

>>11167279
It's New York. Think about what it means to be New York. Maybe I'm just naive because I've never been there but the way the media protrays that city shows there is a lot of variety.

>>11167291
New york is like the biggest tourist attraction to foreigners so I would think that event would be even more pushed aside because the foreigners are most likely interested in american sightseeing stuff. And the those who are residents there will most likely not know who AKB are in the first place.

why is this kid chosen as Nogizaka's "face"?

Also what's with Sayuringo's accent? It's cuteas fuck.

>>11167170
Even SKE members are distancing from Momo

>>11166191

Yes to Yukko's comeback. Why didn't she keep her long flowy hair forever?

>>11166567

Stop trying to make Fuchigami happen iurewgofu3whghw

>>11167398
What do you mean?

>>11167320
Yeah, you definitely don't know very much about New York.

>>11167324
Ikoma has an awesome personality and, when her face isn't covered in flour, she's pretty cute.

>>11168029
I'm with this guy. My Ikomachan is adorable.

>>11167345
Was that today's show? I wonder if the wotas there said anything? ┐(´ー｀)┌

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSmbILy12jg

More costumes and silly jokes at "jinsei suteta mon janai yo ne".

To be honest... that keeps me watching every performance, and now I can't get the song out of my head.

>>11168252
That song is weird for me. I hated it at first, then it became okay, and now a hate it again. I still vastly prefer the SKE song.

http://youtu.be/cBqbmT0YFeY

>>11168252
NMB girls are missing from there, right? They showed all the girls according to Sousenkyo ranking and after Yuihan they went to Akari.

>>11168277
Well, you just can't compare, Utsukushii Inazuma is fucking amazing.

>>11168277
It sounds too much like an anison to me. The initial impact is nice, but after several listens it's just too cheesy with the lyrics and all that.

>>11168252
Mariko and Yuko is painfully hilarious. I love it. That fucking jinsei suteta part. And I really like how the distributed solo shots here are done in rank order.

I kind of didn't notice Sayanee or Milky though, I need to rewatch it. Suda is super cute as always.

>>11168296
Quite true. After listening to UI and then KFC, I can't help but think what a shitty song KFC is.

You can now have Yuko's Caesar salad, special curry and tea cake for the meagre price of 8500 yen (65 €/85 $).

>>11167270
Good stuff.

>>11168337
I didn't know who this was but apparently, she was from HKT and had a scandal. You would think they would lower the prices for used goods.

>>11168378
She wants you to eat her salad, if you catch my drift.

>>11168378
No proof and the management also officially denied the rumours of any law-breaking, saying it all happened for different reasons. Later on an industry insider leaked that Yuukosu had left to become a cooking idol, believing she could achieve more success alone with her boob loli looks and culinary talent. Considering she did become a cooking talent, the insider leak was probably true.

Yui ruined the picture

>>11168252
I actually like the rather subdued colors on the costumes for this one.

>>11168306
>The initial impact is nice, but after several listens it's just too cheesy with the lyrics and all that.
It always screamed "by the numbers" or "production committee" to me.

>>11168310
>Suda is super cute as always.
This, so fucking much.


I still want a Dance ver. PV for UI.

So this is why that NEWS guy couldnt resist her

>>11168440
His first 48 girlfriend was Nyan Nyan. I'd say he lowered his standards.

>>11168467
Nyan Nyan, although she has a great body, has that airhead looks that don't really fit my tastes, so I would probably choose Momo over NyanNyan.

Although, truth be told, I would probably choose Meetan over almost every girl in the 48 group.

>>11168414
I don't see what's wrong.

If you mean her generic pose, then Mayu, Nyan and Tkmn also have lame ones.

If you mean her not responding to Mariko and Yukirin then I agree.

Odd that Paruru actually did something amusing.

>>11168414
>>11168484
Yuko's is the best pose.

>>11168489
That because Yuko is the best.

>>11168403
Boob loli looks indeed. I really liked her gravure.

>>11168477
I bet Kojima is a pretty smart chick when the cameras arent on. Ohori was wife material and thats why someone already married her

Hi, another post from Jakarta^ ^

Ramadhan has started today in Indonesia,
so we can't do the theater shows for a month～

Islam members have to do Ramadhan fasting!

But I am still working in Jakarta★

Today, The JKT48 member I introduce is～
my pretty pretty daughter!

Nabilah Ratna Ayu Azalia

Nabilah!!!＼(^o^)／

She is 14 years old, born on Nov.11, 1999!

Nabilah is so lively and super super Kawaii!

My No.1 Oshi among JKT48 girls♪

She performs Tsundere! at RKJ show,
her Tsundere! is so cute～
She also talks a lot at MC!!!

She is so popular among fans in Jakarta!!!

She calls me "Mama～"
I would be grateful for your support my pretty daughter!!!

>>11168742
Is she Spanish mixed?

>>11168742
I'm surprised radical islamists haven't jihaded JKT.

>>11168767
Must be part of the wota crowd.

>>11168306
how are the lyrics any cheesier than any of their other songs...

>>11168742
How popular are they really over there? Are they close to how Kpop is in Japan or they arent really anything there?

What would be the theme song for this Doc?

>>11168767
Probably too irrelevant.

>>11168882
Ougon Center.

>>11168833
Although, I'm not sure, I think they are pretty popular.
They had several CMs (pocari, pocky, etc) there.

>>11168882
http://youtu.be/4HTyPPELmY0

Our love is pure.

>>11168754
nope

>>11168833
you can see in this video (JKT48 last concert in tennis indoor Senayan, Jakarta that held in 2 days)
youtu.be/87vZf_CumXs (skip to 0:58)

www.last.fm/venue/8808332+Tennis+Indoor+Senayan

>>11168544
Meetan was in MG?

>>11169246
She was an extra on the show just like every other group member who didnt get a role

>>11166451
She looks so cute in these pictures. It makes me want to destroy something. I'll never be a cute girl.

So Shinozaki Ai has been getting shit because she made a comment about the group on "Nakai no Mado"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7vEhD4Uq5k

She commented on how AKB has basically been screwing over actual gravure models since AKB members are in more demand to do gravure shoots than models who have been working in the industry

>>11169343

>>11169343
She's right though. That was also a topic on Kousagi Dojo.

>>11169343
>>11169346
No shit. Kousagi Dojo already covered something like that.

>>11169343
She's not very cute.

>>11169370
I think she's quite the cutie.

>>11169453
The only thing she has going for her is her tiny head.

>>11169370
she really cute and turn up the hottest on command

>>11168440
Her G+ account really got attacked by hate comments. Some outright calls her 'nikubenki', but really, this is the third time she got caught in a scandal, all with different guys it seems, so I'd say if anyone deserves to be called 'slut' in 48 family, it's her. Hell, I don't think anyone else can come close to what she have achieved in that regard.

>>11169521
She (or somebody close to her) literally removed over 500 comments.

>>11169535
I'm not surprised if it's 1,000+ comments, even. AKB wotas aside, here's also the Johnny's rabid fangirls, and don't forget the internet haters just being haters.

But as I said, she does deserves it to some extent. More like a lot of it actually.

>>11169465
Looks like a thinner Noro Kayo

>>11168029
>>11168076

Maybe we have different taste then, I don't really like Ikoma (I hate crybabies, also her voice and face is super weird for me). I prefer the princess types like Mai/both Sayuri/Ikuchan.

>>11168754
arabic

>>11168767
too busy jihading beer factories and whatnot,

>>11168833
big enough to have their own TV show, the theater is always full (from what I've heard).

>>11169546
Yeah, I agree. Once was bad, twice was worse but a third time? She's pretty cheeky. It was pretty funny seeing her spend more than 10 hours S-L-O-W-L-Y deleting comments one by one and as she was doing so, more comments came in.

I'm suprised at how well this suits Annin, she's better at gravure than I thought.

>>11169577

>>11169577
Personally, I think Annin's facial feature is one of the prettiest in AKB, so I always thought she'd do great in photoshoots.

>>11169560
The mental image of her painstakingly doing that makes me feel sorry for her, even for just a bit.

>>11169632
I can't feel bad for her because of course she left all the good comments. I just think she's pathetic.

>>11169682
So she was suppose to just leave up all the hateful shit that wotas were writing in her comment section?

>>11169719
Well she blocked it now so it doesn't matter anymore.

>>11169719
She actually made it worse because her post was full so as she was deleting it, it left more room for more comments. This chick is a slut AND retarded.

>>11169731
She's just stressed.

>>11169739
She should go out drinking again then.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpiEmUvw5Ro

>>11169740
I'm with this guy. Drown her sorrows in alchohol and then she could fuck the bartender.

>>11169987
If Miichan had done that she wouldn't have shaved her head.

>>11169991
But then she wouldn't get her precious screen time.

http://youtu.be/-4ZXUUaS2ZM

I just love her lisp.

>>11169581
I don't even recognize her in this photo

>>11170004
>Oh a idol talking about LISP

>A korean word
Whats up K-pop? What the fuck are you doing here? You guys got kicked out of /mu/ and fucking every board now?

>>11170443
It's pretty common word, like kawaii.

>>11170501
I never heard of it.

>>11170609
no, no, maybe, no, no, no

>>11170539
Me neither. Sounds obnoxious. As expected of the Koreans.

>>11170609
This MV is gonna be awesome but I'm just gonna ignore Oba Mina.

>>11170609
Far bottom left just seems to look so Chinese to me.
>>11170638
Yes to all of them for me. I just want to impregnate all of them...or maybe I just want a nice Japanese woman to truly love. Or is it that I seriously want a harem like that of King Solomon. I just don't know anymore. Please help me /jp/.

>>11170638
>Maybe to ooba?
>No to rest
Nigger have you lost your damn mind?

>>11170727
I love them specifically because they're SGayE's. I would never consider doing anything to change that.

Kito is still deleting comments even after she closed the comment section. Girl sure has a lot of time on her hand.

>>11170781
>implying you'd actually know what to do with any woman
also, what >>11170727 said.

>>11170812
Could be someone else doing the job for her. Or they take turns.

Still, I got a feeling that this won't be the last time we saw her got caught in a scandal. I don't care if she wants to lead a promiscuous life(read:being a slut), or she just can't resist them ikemen craving for some 48 pussies, but she should at least know that's not how an idol life should be, at least not in Japan. Just quit already, and wither yourself away in lots of random mens' arms then. No one really cares by then. Or join some Ebisu Muscat-ish group or something.

>>11170828
君は果実

>>11170852
>Ebisu Muscats (恵比寿マスカッツ?) is a J-pop group consisting of Japanese gravure idols and AV idols, currently under the Pony Canyon record label. It was established in 2008 as part of the TV Tokyo's variety show Onegai! Muscat (おねがい マスカット?).[1][2]
INSTA-FAN'd! I always thought this should be a more commonplace reality instead of being just a single AV video:

god dammit.

>>11170873
oops, wrong pic. apparently she doesn't like those.

>>11170889

>>11170929
Already discussed in the previous thread.

Rest of the episode was fine. That part almost ruined it.

miichan is on tv right now

Do you guys have any info on the 1/149 for PS3? I wanna know if there's going to be new scenes?

My blog update from Jakarta again!!

This time I have been staying in Jakarta about for 2 weeks?
I just opened my mobile phone for Japan use,
I　was surprised that I had received a lot of e-mails from so many people>_<！

The moment I thought I must check that mobile phone, too(。-_-。)

Today again, I introduce another JKT48 member★

The member today is...

Devi Kinal Putri

It's Kinal＼(^o^)／

She is 17 years old, born on Jan 2nd, 1996!!

Still young, at age of 17, but she is solid and steady to be appointed the captain!!

She also attracts many fans with her powerful dance(^o^)

I was also overwhelmed by her Jeanne D'arc performance at the theater opening show!!

Kinal is often described as "powerful!", at the same time, she is very "girlie", sometimes she make my heart twinge(^^)

Everybody!

I would be grateful for your support Captain Kinal!!

Anyone gonna watch Music Station? I think they're going to perform Ue kara Mariko.

>>11171326
That last song... I can't help it... ;_;

>>11170875
It sucks that they disbanded earlier this year, they had a pretty decent variety show.

Maybe Shinobu-san should give some tips to SNH48's costume department, how do these work well for Flying Get?

>>11170929
pretty funny that Saito Asuka still ate whatever she is holding after seeing Ijiri

>>11171294
But it's Bamco. Considering how many features they turned into DLC for the handheld version(s), I'd be surprised if they did without charging you extra for it.

I wish they'd update and expand the roster [to include the KKS], though.

>>11171318
Can't you just post a link or something?

Looks like the new Milky Holmes will be shit, completely different from the earlier, whacky fun seasons:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyFVkoBy-rU

So congratulations to Nakayan on not being forced to act as the point that ruined a franchise.

>>11171404
It just hit me yesterday when I was rewatching this year's request hour... It rained in my house.

>>11171404
I couldn't finish watching the video where they all sing her graduation song, I just started crying and had to close the window. yes i'm weak

;_;

>>11171294
NICE

New Kito post.

>>11171583
Now I don't know if I should order it or not.

>>11171403
>>11171404
>>11171776
>>11171805
Its OK. If the dome concert is going to be streamed we better get rid of some these manly tears.

I still can't understand why Mariko rushed her graduation

>>11171991
She's probably dating a Johnny.

>>11171991
She said that she always wanted to graduate in her hometown. Since the dome tour was announced after sousenkyo candidacy she couldn't back out and was afraid the chance wouldn't come again.

>>11171972
>Now I don't know if I should order it or not.
Just be wary, and think it over thoroughly. Bamco being moonjews shouldn't stop you from enjoying some AKB-related media.

>>11171957
ANNNNNNNNND there goes the comment beleetions again. They're not even hater comments (based on Google translate lawls) just things like, "Please think of SKE's image" or "Please explain yourself". Some poor SKE worker just wants to go to sleep already. It's 2 am right now.

http://www.afachan.asia/2013/07/jkt48_trilogy/

lol wut.

>>11170609
Aight, I'm not a person who loves legs or anything but Jurina must have some of the most beautiful ones I've seen.
