2 minutes self-introduction by AKB48 12th Research Students (one of files)

Saw her in the 110811 Ariyoshi AKB Kyowakoku episode along with some of the other research students! Unlike the others, she didn't seem camera shy at all. Her segment was rather unappealing, with lots of fake spitting and vomiting, but I thought it was pretty funny.

Hopefully will see her in some more shows in the future!

I admit, when I first glanced through the video, I thought she was Kinoshita Yukiko. It was probably the face shape and lighter skin tone that got me. I probably need better contacts...

Yeah, that very segment was a bit scary. Not very Idol-suitable at least.

But I've seen much more scary and unappealing stuff on Ariyoshi already (anyone remember the f*rt guy(s) f*rting stuff in our girl's faces?)

I remember, but I wish I didn't!

Did you see the AKBingo episodes with "Kuro-chan" in it? Why did they let him run around in his underwear??

[Undirrast]

Just realized how amazing her voice is




Definitely someone to look out for.

Congratulations on team 4 promotion and 26th senbatsu qualification! What a bunch of good news, that I surprisingly can amend to first post (hopefully I have enough rights for title. I have, done!).

Explain this Fly Away... it is so random and awesome but where does it come from... or is it her own creation?

[kidafohs]

Any anti who gives this kid verbals really does deserve a good slapping, too have gone through the hell she went through at the begining of last year it is quite remarkable that she is so normal.

Makes you wonder why she isn't pushed by AKS much.

She's multi-talented, has the drive and the skill to back it up. She's also practically fearless, and pretty funny.
