So we know of course graduated members will be part of the single. Okay. But is it for sure that they will sing in the A-side? And not be Kibouteki 2.0? Has it been said yet?
 
(It's been a rough time for me right now and I haven't paid too much attention to detail.)

It has been officially announce that they are taking part in it..
Thats why the fans are reacting to it..
Of course no one know how it looks now..
But I think it is a lose lose lose situation..
Having 1 side being feature more will surely anger 1 side of the fans ..
And if they do it evenly .. they will anger both side

[I don't read Japanese so I have no idea what the titles are]

[ShiningLight445]

Looks like the song titles are a "to be announced".

 

However, as of now, the main A of course is the senbatsu selection + graduated members.

B side #1 is with AKB senbatsu selected members [this one is the same for all versions]. B side #2 is an SKE senbatsu (Ver. A). B side #3 is an NMB senbatsu (Ver B ). B side #4 is an HKT senbatsu (Ver C). B side #5 is NGT senbatsu (Ver D). B side #6 is the Nogi ABK senbatsu (Ver E) - so looks like Nogi and AKB members combine. And finally B side #7 is a song from AKB Team A's new stage, song is titled M.T. ni Sasagu.

 

If I'm incorrect with something, someone please correct me lol.

 

 

So it reminds me of what Janken singles were - having the sister groups have a B side. Since this is supposed the be a 10th anniversary single, why not have all the groups that are in Japan? (which, why not include Keiyakizaka? hmm...)

And as a reminder, JKT and SNH are pretty much their own thing. Yes, JKT has paired up with AKB on a number of occasions for concerts. But SNH is pretty separate.

[Blu-Cherri]

I'm so excited for NGT getting their first own song and music video

[☆RisaReinaSayu☆]

Again with the sister group senbatsu tracks. I wonder if the AKB Senbatsu b-side will feature more next gen than old gen. Also, how many AKB only girls will get shafted to the point of not being on the single at all...AGAIN! Lame, this is lame!

[minaeshi]

Well, since the Janken single is a solo single and doesn't feature sister group songs yearly anymore, the sister group songs just got shifted to the next single, which just so happens to be the first single of the year (Sakura single).. Nogi is a surprise though... it's a 10th anniversary single so I can understand why they're included but at the same time it makes me think, why weren't SNH/JKT added? What about Team 8 (they're almost like their own group)? What about Keyakizaka? It makes it feel like they added N46 to boost the sales since the groups doing very well these days.. 

[ShiningLight445]

^

I can't understand it either

 

First it was Nogi was their 1st official rival, now they are pretty much "cousins" as they have done Kojizaka46, and yes, their sales are getting high up there. But Keiyakizaka is just starting. I wish I knew why they just bypassed these girls...

 

For SNH, when they started it was pretty much the attitude of "we do our own thing and don't want to be told what to do". I guess it's with the relations during WWII, and other history with China as well. I can totally see some of the top members of SNH added, but I'm not sure if they would do a Chinese version or do Japanese. I would so go for a Chinese version of the main A side!!

 

JKT...hmmm, I'm not sure why. Yeah, it's overseas, but come on, they did the joint concert in Jakarta. They are friends with each other.

 

 

TL;DR They are most likely just doing mainland groups.

[Krusha]

Nogizaka46 being their "official rivals" is of course just an artificial construction made by management. There have been many groups - completely unknown and insignificant ones - as well as bigger ones - that have tried to say they won't lose against AKB48 or whatever (which they of course do), but none have been designated as rivals. The problem I see, or what I think is just stupid, is that Nogizaka46 is viewed as their rivals by media and some fans, when in fact they're part of 48G. You'd think that they wouldn't be, but management have said so before (Kitagawa Kenji for example, who works for both 46 and 48). So, instead of being treated like rivals, they're treated as the cousin-group they are (Mayuzaka46, Kojizaka46, Sashizaka46, all the constant co-promotion on 48G shows with appearances, NOGIZAKA SHOW, and so on.)

 

Adding Nogizaka46 to this single is of course just another attempt at raising the sales, just like adding graduated members is the same. I think adding Nogizaka46 is less problematic as it's a cousin group, than adding graduated members though.

[ShiningLight445]

And I saw in image with a "rumored" member formation. Debating on putting it here as it's only a rumor.

[Krusha]

Yes, I also saw the same rumor. If it's how the lineup will be, then I am not sure I will be buying this single. Which would be a first...

[ShiningLight445]

Takamina is graduating April 8th. I find it pointless to have her along with the "Graduated Members" of the senbatsu. Why not just add Kojiharu and Miichan too, and have it be 1st gen (plus Yuko) centers??

 

[pink-ku]

At 2016 48Group request hour, 43rd single was performed. It is title "Kimi wa Melody."

Sakura at the center, no graduated members. Perhaps this just for the RH formation.

Reading this (photos on the spoiler there):
http://stage48.net/f...78#post-1143208

it is Sakura center.

[ShiningLight445]

AKB48 10th anniversary single. Centered by a member of a sister group.

 

 

 

Spoiler

The amount of hate comments though...

http://akb48-daily.b...r-of-akb48.html

[Nory]

People are so worked up over this lol

Straight up war.

Anyway, there are rumours that Sakura will be transfered to AKB.

[ShiningLight445]

^
I thought they would have done that with Jurina. But no they didn't lol

 

It's all about money, I guess.

[Nory]

And let's not talk about what's on stage48, people went from "what are graduated members doing in this single ?! get out!!!" to "I wanted a graduated member to be center!!! Get Sakura out!" and some people were so full of hate they were close to a stroke I swear lol (thankfully weren't so many)

[minaeshi]

I've said this since she centered Kibouteki Refrain, but they should just fully transfer Sakura to AKB so that she can the ace because that's clearly what they're pushing her towards. Let Haruppi be the sole ace of HKT. 

[RenaiHunter]

The most logical center for this single would be Mayuyu or Paruru. Oh well...
