A friend of mine describe Nogizaka 46 as "elite of the elite" in the J idol world; beautiful, polite, sophisticate, intelligent, their image is always too perfect for my taste. But like others said, because of this image Sony cultivated for them, this scandal is much more damming for the group. Even if the man in question is single, just his position in Young Jump magazine has huge implication.

It's a cute idol song on the same level of AKB's last couple songs. Like Ares13, I like the first half or so but when they start singing "Suki, Suki, wow, wow"; I was liked "What, Again?"

To me, it's not a kami song, but hey; if other fans enjoy it, fantastic.

 Sore wo Seishun to Yobu Hi for me; the lyric is beautiful especially when you consider the crappy treatment SKE get.

32-nin senbutsu? This is ambitious to say the least; with these many people, my hope of a dark & powerful dance choreo just goes out of the window. With 32 members & their dance ability varies from great to poor, a complex choreo has the potential to be a disaster in the making.

Hmm, Mayuyu center again? Is management bringing back the permanent center position?

It is not a bad show. The problem is if you already watch the 2012 remake & is able to track down the first live that's from 20+yr ago like myself, there are nothing fresh & exciting about this one.
