Single AKB48 58th (Ne mo Ha mo Rumor) [2021/09/29)

I hope management airdrop Erii at center for this single

 

I saw some Hiyuka fans on the livestream chat so yeah roll the dice on her and probably Kato Rena.

 

Did you?

 

Hope they put senior senbatsu member in the back row. To give a newly senbatsu member time to shine.

i always thought with manaka comes kurumi so i can see it someday

 

im all for hinano making a B side

 

My predictions and hopes:
- 18 members senbatsu
- Erii and YuiYui double center
- YuuNaa duet for a B-side
- Honda Hitomi produced unit for a B-side
- All the members of IxR in Senbatsu
- Megu first senbatsu

 

Agree and disagree with that. Popular members EARNED their spot at the front. If they were still releasing 4 singles a year then I'm all for it.
But with one single a year, I better see Yukirin, Naachan, Yui, and Yuiri at the front row or I'll lose it.

 

Honest question, what's the hype behind Erii? First exposure to her was during PD48, and she didn't exactly leave a good impression on me. Haven't followed her since then, so I don't really get what's behind the traction she's been gaining among management and fans. I hear people say she's cute, maybe it's just me but I don't find her to have a face I traditionally associate with cute.

 

Honestly it's a long time that I was excited over something AKB related. I'm really happy about the only AKB members senbatsu. I hope Megu and Miu will be in the senbatsu

 

I honestly thought she was in Labrador retriever. But she is not or any senbatsu. This is a crime.

 

I hope the new song will have a strong instrumental, like if it's an "idol" song, something like Oogoe Diamond or Kibouteki Refrain, if it's a "cool" song, something like Beginner or Uza. I think AKB's strength is very upbeat music and a lot of energy, so I hope that they won't have a nostalgic/slow type of song (even though I did love some of them, especially '11gatsu no Anklet'). So hopefully the song can have a strong instrumental and the choreography will have energy. I also hope there will be some solo line (of course for someone with a good voice) something like Ponytail to Shushu's solo line, it doesn't have to be long. and I hope they'll make the voices of the members stand out rather than make them sing in a monotone way.

I really hope the song is good and that it will be received well ;w; After such a long break, management really need to make the best efforts for the song, MV and promotions, hopefully.

 

Finally AKB only single! Give my girl Macharin her flowers!

 

i also want a more genki song, something that gets me hype lol tired of slow songs, we dont need shitsuren arigatou part two lol

 

Especially with everyone anticipating this song, it needs to be a song that will remind everyone of 'AKB', I guess this is what Sustainable did and the song was very well received so they need to do something upbeat, of course with a different melody, style etc. Something fun like High Tension would be good too! They really need a strong/powerful instrumental.

By the way...

This is my favorite post here so far LOL it's the fact that you did try to be realistic and didn't put your oshimen as center, but then, how realistic is this... Love the efforts LOL

 

I tried to go by who i saw the most + just general members i liked so yeah its kinda un realistic lmao but I TRIED lol like i had two of the "centers" in 2nd row (zukki and yuiyui) etc, really thought it out, and having the people i thought were compatable with eachother, like kurumi & manaka. its not perfect but lol maybe it will happen who knows oh and i just added ayane....cause i ayane lol

 

Yoshihashi Yuzuka - Senbatsu, unlikely. she has decent HS sales but I don't think it is enough to propel her into senbatsu. B-side center, also unlikely. If they go with D3-only song, the center most likely to be Mahopyon.

Kobayashi Ran - Senbatsu, very slight chance considering lack of senbatsu from Team K. B-side center, if they go with dance-heavy song for D3, she might have a chance. Otherwise, she needs to overcame many good dancers.

Saito Haruna - Senbatsu, unlikely. She has a great voice and definitely one to invest for the future. She get solo stage for Audishow, but I think that's the extent of her push right now. B-side center, slight chance if by miracle they pick the youngest D3 to center a song

Ishiwata Sena - Senbatsu, unlikely. despite her appearance she is not that young anymore, and I see no sign of her decent push to suddenly get a senbatsu spot. B-side center, unlikely. I tried to imagine what kind of song she will likely to center, but for that kind of song, even those on this list have better chance to center it. She need that Dobbon breakthrough to be more recognized.

Tada Kyoka - As much as I want to see her in senbatsu, I know it is unlikely for her. In tandoku concert she still belongs to the back line in the center, still way to go to senbatsu. B-side center, also unlikely. Her current character fits for variety and MC, at least she had her time to shine with Fortune Cherry.

Michieda Saki - Senbatsu, unlikely. people hardly knows her, she promoted a bit late compared to other gen 16, so she missed the hype train. B-side center, also unlikely. She does not have her unique chara yet. So it is difficult for me to imagine what kind of song will fit her as center.

Muto Orin - Senbatsu, unlikely. Even though she might have better chance than most on this list. B-side center, maybe...but I struggle to imagine what kind of unit for her to center. Definitely not Gen 16, there are way too many center candidates ahead of her.

Okumoto Hinano - Senbatsu, unlikely. She even struggle to appear in theater, even though she has a great voice. So...no, I cannot see her in senbatsu right now. B-side center, also unlikely. For a vocal-line B-side song she have slight chance to be picked, but I don't think as the center.

I'll be more than happy if my prediction proven wrong tho...we'll see.
