All AKB sub groups and related *48 groups welcome.

Mayuyu's 2nd single is coming up and they are building a more adult image for her. What do you think of this shift? Is this management gearing Mayu, who has been considered too cute for the role, for center? And what will happen to Warota, which is built on a young, girly image? Discuss!

>> No.9200333

Is Warota good? I never tried listening to them since I'm pretty indifferent to Mayuyu, she seems to get the most screentime as well.

Depends whether you like sugary sweet songs. Especially in some singles 90% of the attention is focused on Mayu though, so if you're not into her that can be quite grating.

Personally I like their latest song (Shounen yo uso wo tsuke), I couldn't stand Hirajima's voice so I didn't really explore their previous singles.

Speaking of Warota, does anyone have a link to Rabutan's solo? I still haven't heard it...

>> No.9200491

>>9200453
Thanks for the info, I (probably) would download the albums, but I won't listen to them that much.

I like happy, catchy songs. And even AKB as a group doesn't have that much. Or I just don't know about older songs. I'm more of an SKE follower as of the moment.

Agreed.

I mean, don't get me wrong or anything, but she is quite blatantly the worst voice actress of all the girls selected, with her by and large just speaking with her own voice which, as cute as it is, feels a little bit out of place sometimes, but I suppose they wanted to include a really popular girl in there if only to get more people watching the series in the first place.

I honestly think this whole thing was more of a gift by aki-p for mayuyu.

>>9206785
Eh, I don't think she's worse than any of the other girls. I've been enjoying the anime, but to keep things in perspective none of the *48 girls are that good compared to the big name seiyuu who are voicing the senbatsu members.

Whether people actually watch the show, though, depends primarily on Kawamori and Okada, not the seiyuu skill level.

There are two reasons they have actual idols in there:
1) Bring more idol fans towards the anime
2) Sell music from the anime to idol fans
With that in mind, Mayuyu is obviously necessary, and it would be a pants-on-head retarded business decision to include her and not push her.

>it would be a pants-on-head retarded business decision to include her and not push her

That's pretty much what I said.( ´_ゝ`)

Anyway, obviously Mayuyu isn't on the same level as professional voice actresses, but I wasn't claiming that the other girls were on their level either. I wouldn't hold her to such a standard but but I do genuinely think Mayuyu is the worst of the amateur voice actresses. Please don't misunderstand though, I do like her a lot as an idol and she even has quite a nice voice. The only problem is that she's pretty much the H. Jon Benjamin of AKB0048 in that while it's a nice and unique voice, it really is her only voice.

Wait wait...wtf, I been noticing this too.
Big ass push from management and Akimoto towards Mayuyu. So is it me or are they setting this up for either

1. Yuko vs. Mayuyu

or

2. Yuko will be announcing her graduation sometime this year. So they want to get Mayuyu more exposure as the new face of AKB48.

More then likely Mayuyu need to get recognized more then what she already is in order to appeal to a more varied crowd.

Nakaya Sayaka is a doing great. Glad she's getting closer to her dream.

>> No.9210741

With all the talk of the anime going on now, this seems as good a time as any to ask.

I've been wondering about the idols like Nakaya Sayaka and Hata Sawako who've explicitly stated that their dream is to become a seiyuu, but did they ever give a reason as to why they became an idol to pursue that dream? Being an idol doesn't seem very conducive to becoming a seiyuu, unless there's some aspect of both existences that I'm missing.

Actually seiyuu's are getting somewhat closer to idols these days (many have fan clubs, solo singles, photobooks etc.). Other than that though, learning to sing (a lot of animes have OP/ED or character songs by the seiyuus) and control your voice, act and so on probably helps with their dreams, not to mention the exposure they get as idols.

I suppose a lot of them do it for reasons other than career progression, idols have an expiration date so it's not the most sensible thing to do from the point of one's career in the first place... many people are probably idols out of the love for idols, or because it's rather pleasant work that pays okay. Not compared to what you earn with a university degree, maybe, but for many of our idols that's out of reach anyway (with exceptions of course, such as Nakamata and Hata).

I hear Sawako has an engineering degree from university so I'd suppose if she can't become a seiyuu or runs out of seiyuu work she'll work as an engineer after she graduates.

It's not easy to become a seiyuu. You either have to attend a special seiyuu school/college, which are rather expensive, or be very lucky and succeed in some contest or agency audition, or reach that goal some other way. However, one thing is sure and that is that you are closer to becoming a seiyuu if you work in the entertainment industry than if you, let's say, serve customers in Denny's or work as a shop assistant in Family Mart (inb4 someone mentions something about a certain 17-year-old seiyuu whose initials are HI). For example, Mizuki Nana became a seiyuu only after trying to debut as a singer.

It turns out that it wasn't a bad decision in Shawako's and Sayaka's as well as Mayuyu's case, because all of them are now much closer to shaping their dreams into reality. Mayuyu and Shawako in particular seem to do a very good job in AKB0048.

>> No.9210923

>>9210741
AKB48 is actually like an entry way to the entertainment industry or more like a stepping stone to them. They try to gain as much exposure and experience possible before graduating and going off solo pursuing what dreams and aspiration they have. Being an idol is just part of the deal, the vast majority don't have intentions of being an idol from the very beginning. Most like Acchan wants to have a career in acting or like Takamina have dreams of being a singer, some joined having no intentions whatsoever only to discover their own niches and latent abilities. Of course there are those(Yukirin) that genuinely want to be an idol for live as well though...

I've read that somewhere too. I assume she attended some night course when she was a university student, but I don't know how long it was. However, only few people manage to become a successful seiyuu after attending some seiyuu school. If nobody picks you up during or after finishing the course, your chances are virtually back on square one.

How can Mariko have such shiny hair...

>>9227776
This pretty much confirms the fan's expectations of a team shuffle (4 free places, 6 promotions).

I suppose for A they'll promote someone popular from the newbs, like Paruru, to replace Maeda.
For K they might transfer Yokoyama out to 4 or the to-be-formed team 8 for their ace.
For B, I hope they transfer Myao & Komori out, they'd shine better elsewhere. Also Amina back in A would be good so she could escape the B weight gaining curse.

Overall it's going to be tough to decide the teams though. You can basically divide the members into popular old, not-so-popular old, and then (the almost wholly not-so-popular) new. You can't transfer the older, real aces, like Mayu or Yuko, out of their original teams - and even if you did, there's barely one for each team and that'd defeat the purpose in that the newbs would end up becoming part of the not-so-popular old rather than the ace/senbatsu category - but creating new aces for 4 and 8 (and possibly A, since they're losing Acchan) won't be very easy either.

(The distributing old aces would have been a lot easier with Sashiko in, honestly. They could have just say, transfer Sashiko to 8 and Yuki to 4 or something, and every team would have their super-popular aces. Mariko can't really act as A's ace due to too much outside work.)

For the KKS promotions, some of the girls really deserved it, but I think instead of a "clean-up" promotion of 10-11ki they should have taken some of the most potential 12ki (Tomu, Sasaki & Hirata) as well.

What I hope is Aki-P has a new, original stage prepared for each team.

I suspect something like a team shuffle will be announced at the Tokyo Dome concert (there's bound to be something big announced) and if it does happen I just hope they do a better job than the first time they did it, or like it's been mentioned before, perhaps a shuffle amongst all the groups which seems to be looking more and more likely.

It's impossible for me to take AKB seriously after the Sashihara scandal. I lost all respect for the management for not enforcing their own rules. And more importantly, what were they thinking sending a whore to HKT, a group full of little girls? Is she supposed to teach them the ropes so we can witness the second coming of SDN in 4-5 years?

Acchan's graduation, Watanabe Mayu being pushed for center, sluts getting off scot free... Maybe I'll stick around just to see how many bottoms this barrel has.

Not only that but they actually further the massive amount of promotion she was already receiving. If she really HAD to stay they could have at least hidden her in a corner somewhere rather than making her out as the new front person for all AKS groups.

Hey, /jp/, please help.

I caught the AKB48 thing because of AKB0048. Before, I had already followed Momoiro Clover strongly (before Akari left), and though I had heard AKB's music and watched their videos once or twice, specially Heavy Rotation, I had never been too much into them.

But again, I'm right in the middle of that first spurt of fan craze. I'm watching AKBINGO and AKB Motor Club, listening to the singles, etc.

But I just started watching that Mayuyu show, Sabadol, and... although I know some very basic japanese that helps me understand what's happening in simple stuff like AKB Motor Club if I watch it raw, it's not enough for me to get a full drama without subs. And I've only been able to find subs up to episode 3 of 12. I found korean subs and google translated subs... but as far as I've found, there have been no proper english subs released since february, when the subs for episode 3 came out.

Are there subs for the rest anywhere?

I'm pissed too and would probably have the same reaction if it wasn't for Sumire still being in AKB. I'll be sticking around for a few years yet regardless of this I guess.

That said, it does set a really bad precedent and I can't imagine myself continuing to support the group to the same extent if they drop basic idol rules like renai kinshi jourei and so on.

What makes it worse for me is that Ayarin is one of the few idols to have ever regained my respect after a fall like this and she got fired at around the same time for committing the same crime as Sashihara who then replaced her. I am literally mad.

It kind of sucks that we now require an account to see videos there. It was nice to have a place I could link prospective new fans. Now that it requires account, it's actually worse than Youtube with all the takedowns.

On an unrelated note, I have my playlist on random and Mori Anna's Romance Kakurenbo just started playing. I feel sad now. Also mad about Sasshi again. So mad.
