To buy them all, or to not buy them all, that is the question.

[satchan]

To buy them all. I am on the fence about the theater edition, but will likely bite on it for completion's sake if I can get it cheaply.

Really can't wait to find out what's on the DVDs.

[Erin.]

I've been waiting for this, so hopefully I can buy it. I've loved all of NMB singles, but am totally too cheap to buy them individually. I wonder what the tracklist will be...

[dev-null]

I pre-ordered it days ago already.

My poor wallet! But it's NMB48... what can you do?

[anarchangelic]

I've been waiting for this, so hopefully I can buy it. I've loved all of NMB singles, but am totally too cheap to buy them individually. I wonder what the tracklist will be...

Wasn't the SKE album all new songs, or do I have that wrong? So I wonder if this will be the same: all new songs, not the singles.

[hitoyou]

The DVD content is of great interest. Though my super high expectations are somewhat scary I expect team specific content and wish for something more than just an individual introduction.

The setlist for this album...

Zetsumetsu
OMG
Junjou U-19
Nagiichi
Virginity
Kitagawa

...will be there for sure but that is only six tracks, needs more stuff. If this will replace the single release then we can expect something really nice for the new original songs.
Each team will probably get a new song each + a new senbatsu track + team shuffles doing AKB covers + Top girls will get something new and extra crispy.

But too much new content will push back the original N stage even further

I feel like this is a great opportunity to give them a slow title track song.

[satchan]

I don't know if we'll get "Kitagawa Kenji." Recent 48 albums haven't included the latest single as of the album's release no matter the age of it. But the rest seems spot on. I do hope there's a little more to this album than SKE's, but I'm honestly not expecting the album of the year.

[dev-null]

I definitely hope a certain song from the "Oh My God!" theater edition will be there as it needs more exposure. A PV for it would be awesome too, if I'm allowed to dream.

I'm also interested about the DVD content, in this regard the SKE48 album with its many PVs was just great. So I hope the NMB48 album provides something similar epic. I'm not sure what to expect at all though (as long it's not just some dance lesson videos like on AKB48's albums).

[Tsurugi_Ken]

I hope it's something like an NMB manzai battle, similar to "The Manzai", with Yoshimoto group geinin and AkimotoP as judges. Though maybe the latter part of that might be a little too much stimulation for the girls.

SKE's album had their singles up to Kataomoi Finally, and few AKB covers, and then some team songs and a "selection 8" song. Maybe NMB's will be the same.

I think it's possible for Kitagawa Kenji to be on the album. GIVE ME FIVE was on 1830m, and they were released within about two months of each other.
In any case, I'm really hoping that Mousou Girlfriend is included, because I love it.
I don't know which version to get. I guess type B would make the most sense because I could actually use the voting ticket, but I'll wait to see the covers.

[TheFicusWithSuperPowers]

I wonder what would be the title.
This is first NMB album, and we do not know what kind of album titles they use.

[gryzze]

The title will be "Teppen Tottande" (てっぺんとったんで).

[TheFicusWithSuperPowers]

^ "Top Something"??
Meaning?
But yet, with Teppen there, I'm sure that they hope to be at the top!! And they'll be.

[hitoyou]

^
To seize the top position... ...something like that If you watch the end of HA! PV you should get a proper feel for the title.




Which reminds me that I completely forgot about HA! in my list of expectations How about a making of and a dance shot in the extras.

[Erin.]

^ Ooooohhh, I'd love it if HA! was included!

[TheFicusWithSuperPowers]

^ Probably it will be included, because it's after all a NMB song.

[hitoyou]

This is the Theater version HS + Autograph event numbers I believe.

Please note that Team B Shimada Rena should be Takano Yui

First thing I was looking for... how did Yuihan do? Very nice with 31/36 and fifth overall. Compared to Kitarie's 0/25 in SKE

Have not looked at the numbers from previous events but many girls of Team M are doing really good while Ripopo and Rikanyan did surprisingly poor. The two tops of Team BII did great too.

Could be that the team balance for the next single senbatsu will get an adjustment.

[Tsurugi_Ken]

Wow, Yagura's doing pretty good.

Shiroma and Jounishi deserve much more, but maybe it's just the last few spots per block that didn't sell out.

Yokoyama's pretty popular on her own, so I'm not surprised she'd sold close to Fukumoto's range.

[hitoyou]

Yes, Fuuchan is doing great. Comes as a little surprise actually

Maybe it is wrong to draw any bigger conclusions about this chart when the album comes with so many options for the buyer. Go for the special event, vote for her in Best 30 or go for the theater HS event

The fundamental rule is that the top members will always sell good though. A tricky idol problem to solve is why some members get so immensely popular while others do everyting right and awesome but still goes practically unnoticed.
