Yeah! You need to come back in please, I don't know a lot of people. Okay that's a lie, I actually had a big LA meetup with the SoCal fanclub that posts there, but yeah. Need more oldies on S48.



So uhhhhh can I say that I don't like Everyday Kachuusha very much? Yankee Soul is the only song I really like of the B-sides (C-side?), and while Everyday is catchy it seems like something is missing. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... dammit.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':dammit:' /> Damn you, Aki-P, stop becoming boring!

I posted on the introductions thread the other day. xD I also re-listened to all their old stuff and man, if any song would bring me back, it'd be 'Koike' man, I just love that song. It's old, but it's awesome.

Zero votes ? =P

Why are people voting for research students, anyway?

Cause they can?

[momoirosaya]

The KKS (kenkyuusei, research students) 9th gen (including 1 10th gen) have already been promoted to full members, they just don't have teams and therefore are still referred to as KKS. But The KKS are awesome!! They have also been pushing them a LOT lately, 9th gen and Lemon (who is 10th gen but not promoted.

I love KKS XD

I put in 2 votes for Miichan~ I hope she can overtake Akicha and get into media senbatsu for the first time!

[Anderei]

I'm praying Mayu doesn't fall again, considering how much she complained about it last time.

It was conveyed poorly by the media by the way they showed the video that she was complaining, but if you watch the whole video, it wasn't like that at all. She thanked all her fans for getting her where she is, and said that she can't be satisfied with dropping, and wants to aim higher. I kinds forgot exactly what is she said though...

I'm sure she'll make in into undergirls~ Only like 10% of the CD's sold votes were used for those results, and it was only the first day.

How do you block the ads? D:

[Melon]

Firefox extensions! :D

[Ap2000]

Weeaboo Complex is one of the few sites where blocking ads is actually contraproductive. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... whafap.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':whafap:' />



Also, I think IE is the only browser that does not have some kind of AD Hunter/Blocker thing.

And if you use IE... time to change the browser.

[Ap2000]

Double-post because this is something interesting imho !



Always wanted to see how a hardcore fan unboxes his recently bought batch of CDs ?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPJ6u2dgDrc



This part is the best:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPJ6u2dgDrc&t=3m15s



He sounds like he's at the brink of despair with all the unknown pics he gets ! lol



Does anybody know what those tickets are good for ? Maybe hand-shake events ?



EDIT:

Girls do this too:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-JrU_EFRdM

[momoirosaya]

^Haha I understand his feelings though, there's a 1/152 chance of getting a member you actually like, and half of them are non-popular NMB and SKE members which no one knows. Even unpopular AKB member photos are wanted more than those <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... hahaha.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':hahaha:' /> It's like getting a picture of some random un-featured girl in TNX rather than an H!P member.

And yes, those are handshake tickets~



That guy got Kuumin~ My SKE Oshi!!

That girl got way more AKB members and popular NMB/SKE members than that other guy! And she got Rabutan and Komari photos and Suuchan and Chiyuu hand shake tickets!! How nice~~



But why do they feel the need to buy so many copies....? <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... hahaha.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':hahaha:' /> For the handshaking I guess, but still!

[freezingkiss]

How do they get the MONEY to buy so many of these singles? My god. Their fans must be rich or still living with their parents, or something!

Or they just save money and make this their only/biggest hobby.

[momoirosaya]

^

^ I saw an interview with a guy who bough 450 copies, and the MC was like "Why do you have so much money?" and the guy said it was because he did various part time jobs to make extra money.

[Shoujo Q]

I just downloaded the singles. I like when someone sticks them all together so I don't have to get 3 damn torrents, but whatever. Making me work for this one.



I hate the single but I love Hito no Chikara and Korekara Wonderland. If they released more singles like those two I might pay attention more. I really love Hito no Chikara. Maybe that's why I like Watarirouka Hashiritai so much? Who knows. I'm weird.



I'd like Yankee Soul the best if it got rid of the talking. I've always hated talking in the middle of a song. (I'm glad Tsunku grew out of that phase.)

[momoirosaya]

^

It's a tie in with their drama so it's got lines form the drama in there. There's 2 other Yankee songs too, and one is half talking! Aki-P has more songs with talking as well, he must really like it <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... tongue.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I do like Korekara Wonderland, it's pretty unique to AKB48. I've never heard a song like that from them!

I've seen various interviews with wota over the years, and this seems to be how lots of them get all their wota-spending money.







Also, are we talking about our favorite AKB48 songs? Mine is Kimi wa Pegasus, although there is one voice in it I don't really like, but she doesn't sing often and I don't actually know who it is.



A lot of the stuff from B5 was really good as well. Can't say I felt the same way about K6 or A6, though.
