Just heard the news now. I'm very happy she's getting pushed It felt really strange though, for Emili to be chosen... Now waiting for the Young Animal scans Anyway, there's this twitter post from Odekake. What episode was this from? Spoiler https://twitter.com/gomenntaiko/status/651991703235104768
I'm so happy for her. I've been checking on her since last year and i hope it her will continue. I'm quite excited
Very excited to see her journey as senbatsu! I had a hunch that she'd be in, looking at her sudden solo-shoot and her general mood in the last week(s). Anyway, Emiri is still Emiri, someone sensitive to pressure and a swingy mood. And also, like always very open with her feelings. Here they are, from G+:
^^ Some of the other scans from Young Animal. This is Gold. Spoiler (Mod Edit: top photo size too big)
There's the gravure lol. I think there are more pages to that, but the bikini ones nearly always get scanned first. We'll probably see the rest on the real release date, the 15th. I've been thinking to try and regularly translate her posts for this period, so here's today's post! She included another one of the recent KKS backdancer break time videos at the end of her post.
she got her momentum after job offer from yuuki-sensei. glad management decided to give her a little bit push. now I know why shige was worried.
Not a hkt follower, just wanna know what did shige said that makes her worried about emiri? And I noticed that they are match up together. Is this because both are half or there's something else?
If you check Shige's sub forum i translated her post about Emiri. I don't think she's worried just that she's aware they share similar charas and that they are both half Japanese. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
lol. don't worry, just joking around. in some akbingo episode shige confessed that she feel insecure with member who has a mixed blood.
Ahh i see thanks guys. But in hkt only those two are half right? And what similar charas do they have?
Currently there's Shige and Emiri. Then you have Jiina, who's like 1/8 American or something, if that still matters lol. Chara wise, if you ask me, both of them have a silly side and sometimes do a failed/lame joke for which they then get laughed at. But there are a lot of members who do those things in HKT, and those two things not even nearly make up the entirety of their chara, so I don't think it's really a focussed rivalry worthy thing. Both are probably more in the picture & compared because of the senbatsu switches. Anyway, today's G+ has been a bit devoid of content, so I had a look on 755: Two other cute/funny bits (vid here):
I think it's not about chara, but the advantage of being half. But emiri rarely appear on tv show and I don't follow LOD either. So I'm not sure about it. Sent from my Lenovo P70-A using Tapatalk
^ so basically being a half is their advantage, really thought some fans are having a hard time accepting half. I admire both for admitting that they are half especially emiri cause she doesn't really look like a half unlike shige that is really obvious.
Yeah Shige's Mama genes are hardcore. It is so obvious she is mixed with something, like when she was younger it was slightly obvious but now that she is older? Oh my gosh... It has become so obvious... I mean don't get me wrong she is absolutely gorgeous but yeah. Emiri is so pure, I really hope her popularity skyrockets, I would love to see more of her.
I think there's really nothing much of a rivalry, other than playful banter. Somehow, their paths cross sometimes because they're the only halfs in HKT right now, from that Shoujiki Shougi episode where Murashige knew that she's not the only one's going to be halfie till the time they had this Yukata race. Well they have extremely different personalities though; Murashige strikes me as outgoing while Emiri has this reserved and soft-spoken feel. Anyhow, let's see how this one goes
