But there's positive graduations and then there's negative graduations. It's OK when a girl graduates because she feels she has achieved what she wanted to achieve, has goals in her sights and so on, and quite another case when girls are forced to graduate.

If Kikuchi can't get a good run next year, she might start thinking about graduating, but not right now.
Not that soon I hope.
One more year maybe. Well, she got a spot as senbatsu member in next single. I hope it will help increase her fans.

So, it looks like they're doing live broadcasts in theaters all around Japan this year.
I haven't been able to find an article that flat out says that they'll be doing a Youtube / TV live broadcast as well.
Does this mean we're screwed this year (for the 101-200 songs anyway)?

A couple years ago the live broadcasts in theaters resulted with some HD uploads of it, due to someone being able to capture it. I certainly hope for that to happen again, but also for this to be live streamed online too, as it makes no sense to not do that, while you stream in theaters across the country.

It could happen this time too if someone that actually worked within one of the theaters decides to capture the footage and post it online, but I find that less likely due to anti-piracy laws in Japan being much more reinforced nowadays compared to several years before.
It certainly makes no sense that they'd do this without a live internet stream, but when you think about it from a more devious point of view, the words "DVD", "Bluray" and "money" explains why.
Standard money-grubbing decisions from a company that already has a crapton of money.

It gets even worse.
Looks like the Unit Matsuri happening on the 27th (after the 4 days of Request Hour 101-200) is also scheduled just for movie theater viewing.
Just yesterday there seemed to be a post from one of the staff responsible for the online streams just simply apologizing regarding there not being online streams, without really giving a specific reason why.
Since the 48 group are big partners with Google, who own Youtube in the first place, a lot of fans (including myself) would never accept such a BS reason as "technical difficulties", which is probably why they never said anything specific. It is most likely staff blunder or higher ups wanting people to pay (disguising that with pretty words like "in order to fight piracy" that shouldn't even be something they should be worried or thinking about).
I am really annoyed by the direction they've been taking as of late.

I guess, we can't always get free stuff to watch... sadly...
Anyway... Day 1:
River, Ponytail to Shu Shu and Beginner dropped like 100 ranks compared to last year... they might be popular single songs that are sung often throughout the year so people might not look that much forward to have it performed at request hour, but still... low compared to last year ^__^;;;...

I'm getting a little worried about Nandeyanen, Idol. Come on, Kanako and Haru oshis, tell me you pulled through. Don't let this one slip out after being in the 130's the last two years...
