Trivia / Notes

Will update when news comes along 

[ShiningLight445]

I smell Okinawa48 announcement in the works.

 

I can't believe that it's the 9th election either. So they are going to have it on a beach?? Everything I search does not show an actual venue lol

[RenaiHunter]

Can we post wishes and predictions here? Here I go with some things on my head:

Mio is aiming for senbatsu for 3rd year in a row. I think it's unlikely to happen since she goes against Annin, Mako, Komiharu and Miichan who all had a stronger year than Mio.

I think it's likely that Juri will drop out of senbatsu or barely make it in.
For some reason I see Sakura and Sayaka outranking Jurina this year.
Tomu, Yuihan and Kitarie will probably float at their current positions.
Haruppi will probably enter Kami 7 which will give HKT 3 Kami reps... I dont like the sound of it.
Sashi will probably win again, but I definitely would prefer someone else to, like Mayu for example. 3 years in a row with the same center will be boring.

Yamamoto Ayaka and Nakai Rika should be able to have good first rank. Rika will possibly go to Next Girls.
I hope Rara ranks since she is getting depressed over her lack of progress.
Ryoha and Nagisa most likely wont have an increase and will stay at FG.

I hope Moeka, Noepii and Renachan rank, but it seems unlikely so far.
I wonder if Katomina fans will go all out to show management they need to stop ignoring her.
I feel that Miru wont be able to enter senbatsu and NMB will have only 1 senbatsu rep again.

Desired positions for my favorites:
Mayu - 1
Mio - 16
Miorin - Future girls or higher

[RenaiHunter]

Some highlights of today:

 

• Miichan applied for ssk
• Kaotan applied for ssk
• Yuki won't participate in ssk

[Krusha]

Sayanee won't participate: https://twitter.com/...822045400276992

[RenaiHunter]

Annin said 2016 was her last. Haruppi has been on hiatus since February and will skip hkt spring tour

[Amoz]

^ Also Kuranoo has been in since 27th.

[Amoz]

^ You missed Hamamatsu Riona (Team 8) from your list.

[Aeria]

I'm positive Rabutan won't participate and she's the one I usually vote for... She didn't participate last year, so I just skipped out, but this year, I plan on voting. I don't know exactly who I'll vote for right now though.

[RenaiHunter]

Rabutan will graduate before SSK

[minaeshi]

I'm most shocked about Haruppi and Fuuchan not participating. They're the two girls who should be leading the new generation alongside Sakura and Miru (in terms of sister groups), so i'm really sad about it. The pressure is going to be on for Miru. 

 

Girls I want to see ranking in senbatsu: Mako, Renacchi, Komiharu, Miichan (?), Mio

Girls I see ranking in Kami 7: Tomu, Naachan, Mion

 

I expected Yukirin and Yuria to not participate, their flop last year must have stung. Sayanee, well, i don't know what to say about that. I'm a bit upset because I wanted to support her, but I'm also relieved because my bank account will actually have money in it during the month of May lmao. 

 

I'll update the first post with the participating and non participating members in a couple of hours, i'm working today 

[droopy10]

I would have thought that the SSK was far enough away that Haruppi would be able to heal/rest/recover, not sure why she is out, enough to participate. I'm taking her non-participation as a sign that something pretty bad is wrong and now wouldn't be surprised that she graduates.

 

The AKB48 members that are not participating were predictable. With the recent NMB graduations and aces not participating could we see the group only getting single digit members ranked? 

 

With many of the top members out this year wonder where all the votes will go or  will people decide not to buy/vote?

[Krusha]

These are all interesting questions really. As for Haruppi, I'm surprised as well. First off I have no idea why she's not participating in any activities, and second it just sounds strange to not partake in the election based on this. So whatever it is it sounds serious. 

[ShiningLight445]

I'm very shocked for Fuuko not participating. I was considering giving her a vote too Always surprises with the election.

Very happy to see Takeuchi Miyu back in the election.

Crossed out names mean announced graduation/graduated. Italics mean had a reason stated for not participating.

 

[Ares13]

I think this time will be interesting to me to see the vote numbers ..
I think its just look really negative now as we have been getting so much graduation or graduation announcements ..
then we got a huge number of people not participating.
Somehow I am getting this sentiment that SSK ain't that serious or important as it use to be ..
I guess getting a spot in SSK does not do anything to that girl's "push" by the management after that ..
somehow it seem more worthwhile to get your fans to spend loads of cash to buy your stuff/goods .. than to get your fans to spend loads of cash on a AKB48 single to vote for you ..
I guess also SSK lose some of its credibility when they did the Nyan Nyan Kamen thing .. it is not about KojiHaru .. it about doing perceive integrity ..
There is just so much money involve for this SSK thing .. they had auditors and people guarding the result briefcase ..so much security ..
but they prepare a Nyan Nyan Kamen gag that happen to just made 16th for senbatsu slot by just a couple of votes ..
Furthermore .. they look not serious for something that many took very seriously .. basically if you spend a lot of money voting .. I bet you are pretty serious about it ..
Then I heard that it is in Okinawa which is a open area with no rainy weather plan .. so if there are heavy rain that day .. then no one can see anything .. and it usually always rain on SSK result show ..

Anyway .. I can say .. I am being hit by bad times .. I just got force out of my job due to the economy ..
even in bad times .. I can spend some money if it gives me the feeling that the money is worth spending and I have no regret ..
Basically i never regretted a single cent I spent on idols .. I still kept all my idols stuff I got in 10years .. I will never sell them away because it holds all the great and wonderful memories ..
So I am still considering ..

On the sidelines .. I of course hope all my oshimen of different 48G get in and my favs in 48G get in too

[RenaiHunter]

Fuuchan explained she doesnt want to participate unless she is going to show any results, meaning she felt like she will drop or not raise that much.
