The new AKB48 sister group based in Indonesia. So far they've only released one music video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0SOevO2N68&feature=fvwrel

Do you think this format of idol group will work outside of Japan? Especially in a country like Indonesia?

>> No.8762951

Hahaha what the fuck

>> No.8762960

I think this group trying so hard to be japanese, at least with the japanese pronunciation and stuff in that music video. They could at least pronounce those english words with their own accent.

>> No.8762967

How much do these groups even get paid after dividing it up that much?

I do wonder that.. Do they even make a profit? Or all of those money go to their talent scout instead?

>> No.8763031

lol, haven't you seen the scandals revolving around them? Quite a number of them are impure sluts with boyfriends. Center girl bitched at fans.

I don't think Indonesia is a 'proud muslim nation', I think it is kinda secular like Turkey.

The girls look pretty innocent.. still.. just wait for a couple of months.

I always thought this was a ripoff of AKB48 but it's actually produced by the dude who also produced AKB48.

Yes it is. It's just his way of making more money, knowing that Indonesia is full of otakus.

That scandal about her having a boyfriend? And yeah, she is kinda bitchy. Well, I don't really care about the "no dating" rule anyway.

>> No.8763745

Why aren't they allowed to date?
That's pretty homo. I bet they have lesbian orgies to make up for it.

well , they try to keep the pure innocent image of the girls.
The girls have a huge following of guys who have no chance to land on a real girl and for them this idols are kind of like girlfriends and they are willing to spend much money on the products promoted by their favorite girl.This is the sad part of the idol industry

I wish the rule would be removed and that the girls would get some freedom , but that will never happen.

Oh come on now.
Throwing something innocent to the ground ALWAYS sold.

Not just on the japanese market. American one as well.
Britney Spears, Christina Arguilera and countless others.

It sells. And its planned.

I get that people want to see something innocent, as its something thats rare nowadays.
People always want what they can't get I guess.

What I don't understand is that people still believe in that huge idol thing.
I mean apart from them even going into AV or other stuff there have been dozens of cases where they got "exposed".

Why would you care about fake laughs, I really dont get it.
What was that idols name from the 80s? Or was it the 90s?
She jumped from a building right? After she tried suicide a few hours earlier?
The explanation as far as I know was that she was "love sick".
Come on now. How can people be so blind.

It just makes me rage to see parents sending their kids straight into hell for a bit of publicity. Its horrible. Once they are on TV they loose control I guess, because the Media machine takes over and takes care of them.

Guess I'm way to mad. Not that my opinion matters anyway.
People will continue to buy stuff like this it seems.

I have no idea why they latch onto specific members so much. It's probably a lot easier if you can understand their language so you can follow all the stupid shit they do.

The only one I can say I like is Tomomi Itano and that's only because of her looks as "the hot one."
