KURIHARA SAE Team: KKS Generation: 3rd Name: Kurihara Sae (栗原紗英) Nickname: Saechan (さえちゃん) Birthdate: June 20th, 1996 Birthplace: Fukuoka Height: 164cm
mmh, the force is strong in this one.... Matsui Jurina with Yoshimoto Aeri, and now Kurihara Sae with Tashima Meru. I think the Era of Doppledangers has begun. I'm going to keep an eye on her, something telling me her KKS days will be short.
i was talking about the Center Aura they are both Emitting. Also her presence, the haircut made see some similarities between those 2 somehow... And yeah that's it she reminds me of Eto Sayaka as well!! She was one from the 5 along with Yuukosu that had to withdraw to the group due to obscure reasons
I see the Meru thing too lol I lik the fact that she isn't smiling/showing all her teeth like other girls do. It's like... "Yeah, I'm in HKT. Get over it".
She has a mature, sophisticated air to her. Maybe that's why Sadia likes her so much? I haven't seen the stage yet but I hope she acts like that too. I would welcome it greatly. Spoiler Set her up with Yuriya to do something together, instant succes.
I actually said the same thing some hours back. The little I saw of her really reminds me of Yuriya's calm nature. Not exactly shy, but "elegant". Would be fun seeing those 2 get friends (as I don't think, Yuriya will make it into KIV, they'll both end up being KKS), as Sae is quite a bit older, but Yuriya still her Senpai. Well... we will see, up until now, it's all just assuming anyway.
Wakaharu posted pictures from 3rd gen on her blog. They need G+ already, there are not enough photos of them .
somehow i think she looks a little bit similar with sayanee , even if you try to imagine her with short hair [think] Spoiler especially those eyes
Yeah @IXA I thought exactly the same but I refrained from posting because I was afraid the thread would begin to look like a look-a-like guessing contest. I very curious for this member, she seems like a calm, closed type which further increases my interest for uncovering her personality and interactions with the members. This together with her being a bit older and having a mature, princess-like aura makes her my no.1 3rd gen just before Tsuttsun.
Yep, same here. But she only looks like Sayanee in the official picture. If you watch her on the videos from the Himawarigumi stage, she doesn't really look like any of these other girls.
Some more random pictures of Sae-chan, as there is not really that much to talk about regarding 3rd gens at the moment, anyway . Oh yea, and I tend not to compare these girls to anyone. They are unique and I don't want them to be "the next xy". Spoiler http://i.imgur.com/6l3Odq8.jpg
One of my fav in the 3rd gen!She's more like the cool beauty type, more in the mould of madoka?haha.Cant wait to see her onstage to see how she performs.
Sae will perform Nounai Paradise on November 20, 2013. source: http://www.hkt48.jp/news/2013/11/008455.html
Today was Saechan's first performance and I have to say... Wow, this girl is great! Her dancing is really good, she did even better than some of the other KKS. Her voice (although it was not live) is also nice and overall, except some hesitation at the first song, her performance was flawless! I made a bunch of photos, so I will just post it as an album here, too much work to link it all manually: http://imgur.com/a/rZj7E#0 And, because she looks cute here:
I liked Sae's first performance! Right off the bat she got one of the solo lines on Tomo yo, and I was surprised at how relaxed she seemed. In fact Okapan looked more nervous than her. She only showed her nervousness during the MCs. But on group songs she blended in with the others and you could hardly say that this was her first performance. Also, for Kimi wa Pegasus, she was in Miyazawa Sae's position.
Yeah I found that pretty cool regardless if that was intentional based on the name or just the under position she'll usually perform. [clap] I put that performance on vimeo [vimeo]http://vimeo.com/79907449[/vimeo]
I didn't have a lot of time to spare the last few days so I didn't see a lot of but she got me totally hooked already. Firstly the idea of freshly introduced new gens always makes me assume that they're still quite/very rough around the edges but it seems like that totally wasn't the case. Behind the scenes bootcamp = success. [clap] But the main thing that got me was the combination of delicate voice, long hair, calm demeanor, reasonably good height (compared to the rest) and a faint smile. A one-hit K.O. coctail. Thanks a ton for posting the video and screens, I've got a lot more spare time now so I'll get to watching the entire thing. Now to see what the other KKS have in store, but for now.
It seems like Sae couldn't make the handshake event due to some school stuff. What kind of school does things on a sunday? orz At least there are the new theatre pictures, which makes me curious as to when she'll appear again in a unit/non-backdancer position. Probably not any time soon. EDIT: It seems like my prayers have been answered! And that in less than 14 minutes, must be a record:
