5th Gen Thread

First things first, we need to know who is the center of new 5ki song. I really want it to be Teresa or Sakura, but Miku is a possibility.
Then I think all the 5ki centers will have high chance to be in the next senbatsu.

 

Looks like Mao,Teresa,Sakura,Satsuki,Miku is doing well. I'm quite fine with either of them getting the next center for the 5th gen song,I heard that the 5th gen song will be release in regular edition,so there may not be an MV?

 

Its Nagi

 

I'm happy for all 5th gen girls, but I'm still clueless as to WHY the Ok-pair (Okuda and Okamoto) didn't manage to get this 1 slot. Just why? This question overshadows my joy for my precious Terepan surge. Iroha is just so cute, bubbly and innocent, the perfect girl to have by your side on a summer night around a campfire by the seashore, with her guitar and Hinadani with her amazing laughter and her gloriously beautiful eyes... Just why???

 

I'm hoping somehow they will get a MV. Cmiiw, but I think in past singles there are few songs in regular edition with MV. Senbatsu and Under members are already covered. 5th gen members aren't included in any other unit. Then again, a couple of 3rd and 4th gen songs are without a MV. Sucks if that's the case for 5th gen in this single. I'm also thinking which unit doesn't get a MV because I think Asuka will get her solo MV.

 

High chance that Aya will center or flank. My front-row formation prediction is Sakutan-Teresa-Aya-Satsuki-Nagi.

 

I personally would like to see Sakutan center, however, any of these three will suffice. If Aya is center I would consider it a push.

 

"17 minutes" MV

 

Yay for Sakura center and the MV.
Still don't like the song, but at least 5ki looks amazing in the MV.

 

Surprised to suddenly see this MV and I love it. Happy for Sakura center and it's nice to see they're rotating the members now with Mao and Nao in front (my new favorite pair). I like the song, all the members look lovely.
@4:30 - see you next single

 

Ahhh they look so good in that dress. I need more of that outfit.

 

Now I remember which AKB song this sounds alike...

Spoiler

Part of the chorus sounds very similar

Is sky blue the 5ki official color? Their previous MV also use this color tone.

 

Interesting, first time i heard there is a official color theme for each Nogi gen. May i know what the official color for gen 1,2,3 and 4. Thanks

 

I don't think there is a real "official" color for each gen. But, because of your post/question, I did a bit Google search and found something interesting from Nogi 9th birthday goods. They sold items with different color for each gen. Here is the example.
https://www.nogizaka46shop.com/product/5497
You can see 1ki is red, 2ki is white, 3ki is turquoise (maybe it is more to bluish green?), and 4ki is yellow.
Some fans see the connection between 3ki & 4ki and their image color. 3ki first song is Sanbanme no Kaze, so it is Kaze or wind, which is turquoise. 4ki first song is Yonbanme no Hikari, so it is Hikari or Light, which is Yellow.
Even though the goods shop use white as 2ki color, personally, I prefer the red for 2ki because of this gravure shot.

Spoiler: 2ki red gravure making video

Now, I wonder what kind of "official" color that 5ki goods will have?
