I want to go back to 2015 - 2016, when my hype for this conglomerate was on its max point. Things have changed so much.

Unlike Produce48 Girls Planet 999 was promoted as a sometbing that connects Korea, China and Japan. But what kind of connection is that if among the 9 debuting members 2 afe Japanese and only 1 Chinese. What a joke.

I decided not to watch after reading reactions to the first episodes, but if they wanted a group of members actually popular internationally I don't think they'd have weighted the votes toward KR. Especially if they were going to cut it down to a single vote in the end (and KR relies heavily on export to support it's ent industry anyway, you'd think you'd want to start with girls popular in markets you require for profit).

@Nayok-Kihara Totally agree with you. It really makes me angry thinking that they promoted the creation of a group hat connects the 3 countries, when acually it's just thr same as the previous projects in which korean audience is he one who really matters to them.

It's been some months since the last time I've been here, I hope to be more active here like some years ago. Talking about MM thw current line up is going to turn 2 years of longevity in the griup history, I wish it can become the longest lastimg line-up since i think it's possible, but given the current Maa-chan situation I'm not that sure of it anymore.

Nayok-Kihara
I still think it's very possible. She doesn't seem to want to leave, just wait for her condition to become a little more manageable.

So here's the thing, last Thursday in my country (Ecuador) a National strike was declared by certain group of people because the government removed the oil subsidy, something that it's not nice becuase that means the price of many things will increase, but it's necessary. The problem is that when the strike started, in the capital of the country and in my city (Guayaquil), the police was so focused on the protesters that some people started to steal, assault and loot stores, pharm...

So now we can tell that IZ*ONe becomes a 48 group when promoting in Japan, their new single has a new center.
-
tadase
Isn't that how they were marketed in TV shows anyway? Putting them with 48 group performances last year gave me that impression. It'd been refreshing to see rotating centers in JP singles, at least they get their time to shine
-
ajma93632
@ShiningLight445 The CD covers and the promotional photo were revealed, and it'seems so obvious that Wonyoung is not the center this time, the new center is Minju who was 11th in the PD48 ranking. And not only the center changed but the positions of all the members (except Sakura), so members who were last in the first single are front members now and vice versa.

Yestereday Julian Assange was arrested because he was expelled from the embassy of my country, and there's plans of taking away his ecuadorian nacionality and to arrest those those who gave it to him in first place. And you know, the public response here is generally positive.

He's a really hated man in my country becuase he was living the good life at the expense of the whole ecuadorian state. And there's the rumor he took part in the suspicios rise of Lenin Moreno in the elections for president. The fact that Rafael Correa is protesting and tried to pretect him so much makes me think that there's something we don't know and for that reason I can't feel sympathy for him. I hope for him to be fairly judged as any person, but as an ecuadorian per...

Lurkette
He apparently cost the Ecuadorian government several million dollars to host AND he tried to sue them for asking him to pay for his own internet and take care of his cat. I'd want him out, too.

AKB is done at this point, even if the group doesn't disband this issue will chase the group forever.
-
ajma93632
@Krusha I meant AKB as AKB48G because it has affected the whole franchise, of course some groups not so much like others.
-
ajma93632
@tadase I just found out about that some days ago and couldn't believe it. It is said MNL is now the AKS guinea pig. So let's see how will this affect the other groups.
-
ajma93632
@SailorKame The problem with AKB decline is that now there's this issue. It's not like dealing with problematics members who ended up gratuading or members with scandals. This problem comes from the management and how it has let things go this far, if it wasn't for this then I could have predicted they could reach their 20th anniversary and maybe some years more. But with this I don't know if they could even reach their 15th because they have lost support from the industry and...

I finished Kingdom Hearts 3 two days ago and I still can't get over the ending and epilogue.

I know it's good that there are more groups in H!P but what's the point in having more groups if that means releasing 2 singles per year at max? Maybe I'm being selfish but I want more releases.
-
Juandalyn
^This, unfortunately. Which is a shame because singles usually pull in the general public while stage plays and concerts don't.
-
SailorKame
at this point I think they've sort of given up trying to pull the general public and are probably just trying to keep their fanbase happy for now.
-
ajma93632
I think more concerts and activities help to keep the fanbase but in H!P case, it won't w0do for long if they don't do something to reach to more people. The H!P single made me realize that every new group is practically supported by the same fans of older groups, so it's not like H!P fan base has grown because of the newer groups. So starting by releasing new single they should do something to reach to a wider audience.

Guys like 18 hours ago there were two earthquakes in my country, the second was in my city and they occurred between the 5:00 and 5:30 ( time of Ecuador) so people almost all of the people were still sleeping. I was so scared, specially for the secind one because I felt it stronger tha the first. Now things are okay, but I guess it'd be a bit difficult to sleep tonight.
-
ajma93632
Thanks, fortunetaly nothing happened with my family, but one person died and there were injured people and damaged houses. I still remember when the first earthquake came it was a bit long but not so strong, and when it ended we all went back to sleep and when I was about to fall sleep the second one came and it was stronger we all go out and after it endend i noticed my legs were shaking and wasn't able to sleep at all, I had to relax for like one hour to finally sleep again. The people...

I'm so glad Wanna One is finally over, I never liked the group and Minhyun can go back to NU'EST. #Sorrynotsorry

My country is becoming more violent day by day, it's so sad.

Same about my country, which is the Philippines. Still trying to see the silver lining in it though. Hugs, mate!

It's my second time buying Cds but I think it'll be my last, I can't bear how much I have to pay to the courier company.
-
IchVermisseDenSommer
look at forum posts like that. When things like this started in Ger I was still in the cosplay community and since we imported so much stuff this was a hot topic. Your country probably has communities like this as well and they surely discussed this before. DHL only started doing this at least in Ger 2 or 3 years ago. Chances are they did so in your country as well.
-
Juandalyn
I feel it. I rarely order stuff even from the US because everything from outside the EU gets weird additional import taxes.
-
ajma93632
@IchVernisseDenSommer The answer is negative and she told me what you mentioned. I'll be paying that because the package is here and I'm sick of that bs. I guess if I'm willing to buy Cds next tiem I'll do it from another store that doesn't automatically uses DHL for shipping.

Nogizaka has reached a point where there are more senbatsu material members than spaces in the senbatsu.
-
minaeshi
at this point the best thing to do is swap out some old faces in favor of newer ones so that when graduations start being more frequent, the group can still stand on two feet. there are lots of senbatsu ready girls who haven't been given that chance yet but have no intention to graduate soon
-
ajma93632
@minaeshi I totally agree, the closest senbatsu to that idea was on the 19th single where Manatsu was put on 3rd row, but they gave her a song with Maiyan. Management could easily put some popular members out of senbatsu and give them solo or group songs for them so their fans won't get so displeased.

If Mnet really wants HKT48 Sakura to be in the top 12 of Produce48, then they should stop giving her this "push", it will only create hate for her. What were the judhes thinking when they gave her an A?
-
minaeshi
I think she did great but I think they did her more harm than good giving her an A simply because she has the "potential" to be great on the show.. should have given her B class, she still would have been happy but now she once again has a burden over her head due to mgmt push. tragic.

taylorniw
Rigged for dayzzz. Notice how she got to perform the Japanese version when she should have had to do the Korean version to parallel the Korean trainees’ Japanese version. They just gotta make sure some popular Japanese girls make it to the end.
-
beyooooonk
Are you guys forgetting about the part of the show right near the end where the judges remarked, "Wow, nearly all the Japanese trainees tried the Korean version well, but the Koreans did not give as much effort to sing in Japanese." Did you guys skip the end part where they mentioned this?

I think I fell in love with Hiragana Keyakizaka, they're awesome and need to debut in a single.
-
ajma93632
Even though the format of Produce48 remains unexplained, I can tell something about it in one word: RIGGED.
-
Blu-Cherri
I heard pevious p101 the contestants voted? With so many hkt members the rest of 48 probably rallied around Sakura whist the other contestants probably split their votes
-
ajma93632
@Blu-Cherri even if that's true, the song was supposed to have 2 centers and Mnet just focus on Sakura, the same happened in the teaser that give her a little more screentime even though her face was blurred. It's like she's Mnet new fav.

Just for curiosity, how much does a plaintain cost in your country? My mother bought 20 with $1 more likely because they are from my country. But in your case?
-
ajma93632
@juandalyn Interesting, it's even more expensive in Europe, more likely because of distance. Unlike here in Ecuador where you can find them in almost every market of the coast region.
