Great performance!

 

Kimi ga Inai in full performance is great. I love that song so much.

Same here, it's easily my favorite Keyaki song so far!

Keyaki was in a newspaper yesterday... apparently they wore military costumes to a Halloween event that looked a little too much like Nazi costumes and the agency had to apologize. Can anyone confirm this ?

[RenaiHunter]

Yes its real. Akimoto and Sony apologized about it. https://www.yahoo.co...-000654296.html

[minaeshi]

I heard about this too. I hope the girls don't get too much backlash from their stylists and costume designers' mistake. 

[Krusha]

There is already one major result of it: The Halloween concert they were part of that was supposed to air on TV, was cancelled. Some are wondering if they will be dropped from Kouhaku as a result of this episode.

Is that dropped from Kouhaku consideration or did NHK announce to performers list already and I just didn't read it yet?

[minaeshi]

^consideration i think, i haven't seen a list either.. 

 

 

though, i don't think this should affect the group because it was their manamgent and stylists/costume designers mistake. it had nothing to do with the girls or their popular songs, but i can see how their image may be damaged by this :/

[Krusha]

This was just speculation. 

 

Of course it wasn't the group's fault, but management etc. but it becomes an image/PR thing and then if it's bad enough, it can have such an outcome. 

 

Personally I think it's really unfortunate, and it was an extreme overreaction that nobody would have known about if it wasn't for a few complainers online - thus spreading it to minor tabloid media - then to larger media - eventually culminating with it becoming an international thing to some degree. 

 

The only thing reminiscent of nazi gear, was the hat. Other than that, nothing else. And then it becomes this "Crucify them!" nonsense. And nobody cares about their apology either, it was just media pounding on something to be pounded on, and then it's on to the next story... Same old, same old... 

[Maury Tuhis]

To be fair, the apology was noticed by at least BBC, CBS News, Sky news, FOX news and plenty of others. so it's not like the apology was ignored. But frankly, nobody would have cared if it was just Asians being quirky... until the moment you can attach "Sony" and "2020 Olympics" on the story. Then it (surprisingly) becomes a global PR issue where canceling a show and upsetting some fans means zilch.

[ajeossi76]

Keyakizaka46, most evil band of 2016... For real, who gets butthurt 'cause outfits? F***** stupid "Hey, I wanna play nazi card", "Hey, I wanna apology"... World is full of complete idiots. Apologize my ass, wankers...

[RenaiHunter]

^ am I the only one that doesnt understand this comment? lol

Of course they would drag the Olympics in this. There are people desperate to find a reason for 48g to not participate.

And C-ute's Uncle Hitler story was also brought in for a milionth time.

[ajeossi76]

Just referring how stupid someone can be and get their "sensitive" feelings offended by clothes someone wear. No one even cares lack of clothes in modern society.

10 Keyakizaka46 - Silent Majority

32) Keyakizaka46 - Sekai ni wa Ai Shika Nai

 

for reference, AKB48 came 1st with Tsubasa wa Iranai, First Time Since 2013 AKB48 hit #1 on the EOTY list. Nogizaka46 was 13th with Sayonara no Imi

[minaeshi]

As happy as i am about the Keyaki members getting their own threads, i fear that they will end with the same fate as Nogizaka and multiple 48G member threads who rarely have people comment in them unless they're graduating or in a scandal. Since people rarely post in the Keyaki general thread anyway, i'll try to update enough so that users can find out more about the group and come to like them as much as i do lol. 

 

Anyways, some news~ 

 

Teasers for their one man live came out~ 

 

 

Silent Majority ranked 4th in Youtube's Top Trending Videos in Japan (list of 100) 

Sekai ni wa aishikanai was ranked 58th
