^is the showroom route audition separate from the supaga audition?

I might be wrong on this, but it’s probably two separate auditions to bring in more Spaga members.

From the looks of it, Doumae Yuri, Higuchi Nazuna and Nishijima Nanako give me the most Spaga vibes.

I still do not get their audition .. is this the full run map of their audition?

SUPER☆GiRLS 超オーディション!!!! 審査ルート(9/1)

I am not 100% sure

But I think the whole audition are 3 routes
MBS radio
Showroom
Freshlive

Yesterday seem to be the finals for the Showroom route ..
and the girl I am rooting for Akane #12 for yesterday lost
I guess we fought the good fight .. in the end the fan voting didn't help much
this does makes my SUPER GiRLS fandom weaker as Naapon is going and its hard for me to get a 4th chapter oshimen now
So I only have Hotaru ..

I guess thats the problem with having such a big, long and open audition ..
Fans have already warm up and got close to the auditionee and its harder to move later if they lose
This is so sad .. she can only apologize and thank the fans
I hope they would keep her .. but ... sigh .. its Avex ..

There’s so many good finalists, I wonder if Avex will keep them around if they fail the audition.

[Moklar]

I'm fairly meh about them, most seem too old, what's the point in bringing in a bunch of 20+ years old into the group.

[RenaiDestiny。]

That’s true, the youngest candidate is 16 years old and that’s concerning to me because most 18+ idols only last in their groups 2-4 years, so maybe Avex still has plans to disband SG if this whole rebranding doesn’t work ouf.

[onesnowyday]

Well nobody beats Yuukirin in terms of age. I seriously thought she was the least likely to have anymore idol activities after GEM. 

She either really loves being an idol or really needs a job...

But well, as long as she doesn't mind it herself, I guess it doesn't matter. She was one of the more popular members in GEM. 

 

Truth be told though, I can only see supaga going on for 1 more year. It seems unlikely that they'll be able to stay for much longer :/ 

[Ares13]

About the finalist .. I didn't want to post my comment with the info..
Its obvious that they are all really old ..
To give you some perspective ..
By 11 January 2019, many of the members would have graduated .. It is only less than 3 months away
Koume who said she thought about graduating but change her mind .. is 20years old now and the oldest 2nd chapter member..
All the finalist with the exception of Matsumoto Aika are older than all the 3rd chapter members
Matsumoto Aika is only 1 month older than Hotaru who is the oldest 3rd chapter girls now ..

I totally don't get it .. why are they going for new members this old ..
They said its for their 10th anniversary in 2020 ..so you got to add 2 years to the finalist age by the time they meet their purpose ..

This gives me the feeling that something is up .. and they are planning something ..
My guess is they may be moving them away from idols and becoming artist ..
I think they did that to TGS ..
and I still think that they wanted to move GEM to artist but scrap the plan and disbanded them and form a new group by adding new members instead .. which became ONE CHANCE ..
But its my guess .. as things just don't look right with them taking in so many older girls ..

^ LOL, that's a ridiculous assumption to think that super girls would be artists not idols, they've always been arch-typical idol group, not sure what gave you that idea.

[Ares13]

well .. its just guessing ..
In another thought .. it could also be this makes them easier to close down ..
They replace so many members and having such a massive audition which allow fans to get close to many auditionee who fail in the end ..

This dilute interest among the fans ..
They just need to balance it off so that they would lose so many fans that they are done immediately after the big graduation ..

Having Yuukirin there is funny as her fans already experience 1 disbanding so the outcry will be less ..
So basically they seem to be working towards minimum outcry and displeasure from the fans if in the end they decide to disband the group ..

According to Kanazawa Yuuki’s twitter, the results for the new members will be revealed November 19th.!

[goratnik]

Lost track a bit after notifications have been qualified as SPAM for half the year, but I've finally noticed something off - no H!O in inbox and nonzero number of messages in wrong folder. Five months lost anyway and it seems that I might have had something more important in that time, but I've missed this .

 

Well, I must say I've almost spit my drinks while reading the thread - halving the group and then going to add members that are older than to-be-graduates? Smells like ... And to say this about a group that still holds the candle of idolicity after 48s clearly took a step away this year. Bad Avex, bad.

 

After looking at auditionees I must admit that they are tweeting as if on fire... I didn't find birthdates for some of them, but the roster is so antiquated, just WOW - former GEM, former SKE48, "random" girl with five years old account? Quite a bulk of old dogs here.

 

Apart from Aika I don't see a lot of hope. Just some good girls, but no hope in this land of misery. Maybe Gool-ge really knew how to make me feel better.

 

Is this the Rio that is auditioning?

- 21st single will be released on February 27th, the title is "コングラCHUレーション!!!!" (CongraCHUlation!!!!)

[Ares13]

I was all caught up on the fact that the auditionee that I was rooting for didn't make the finals that I didn't think the result will affect me ..
I didn't think about what happen if Yuuki did make it into the 4th Chapter ..
So by my rule of GEMILY .. where former GEM members will always come first for me ..
I will support Yuuki as my SUPER GiRLS oshimen and the overall oshimen of iDOL Street

Hikaru, Rina, Ruka, Nana and Risa have officially graduated. I've been a fan since 2012, so it makes me really sad to see all the remaining original members go at the same time 

 

 

 

 

They also released the short MV for their next single 

 

[onesnowyday]

Risa   

You will be missed. 

 

Wishing luck to Supaga for their future activities.
