When's the election again?

 

^^^Didn't it start already ? Or did you mean when the ceremony will take place ?

Lmao The Girls Next Door was a part of my childhood

Yeah that's why I hope it won't damage the alchemy between the members

What are those ?

Of all the places really I do'nt know how it looks in real life but from the pictures I saw the place isn't that pretty

Ugh I can't watch it they banished the video in my country T-T (What did France do ???)


Can a generous soul re-upload it on another platform ?

 

As in when's the ceremony.


I have been to Resorts World...
If I recall there's some nice Japanese Restaurants there and if your on a Budget, Sizzling Pepper Steak, Mcdo and Mediterranean cafe is your best bet

Your wish is my command

 

I want to go there since the General Elections day is on my work-off! But I haven't went to RWM before.

 

Try watching Pilipinas Got Talent Semifinals 2018. It is available in Youtube. They are recording it there.

Resorts World Manila, where they held Got Talent PH Season 6 currently every weekend nights.

 

Just wondering about some things regarding the election, I was reading the update on their website (https://mnl48.hallohallo.com/news-and-updates/countdown-to-mnl48-first-general-election-begins/)

Spoiler: Countdown to MNL48 First General Election begins

After all the hardships and triumphs each of the MNL48 aspirants went through in the hope of becoming part of biggest idol group in the Philippines, the competition is set to conclude this April 28 as the MNL8 First Generation General Election was formally announced on It’s Showtime.

After the dance face-off of the seven challengers and seven bottom rankers, Hallohallo Entertainment Inc. revealed that starting today, April 14, the battle for the Final 48 officially begins as the votes on the MNL48 app reset and go back to zero.

Inspired by the tradition of its sister group, AKB48, MNL48 will be having its first General Election on April 28 with live coverage to be aired on It’s Showtime. The big event will determine the members’ hierarchy in the group which will be based on votes.

From the Final 48 after the General Election, Top 16 will compete for the Top 7 spots who will be training in Japan and will have the opportunity to perform with AKB48 and other sister groups in Asia, while the remaining 41 members will train here in the Philippines.

As the Top 7 members will be chosen, the center girl who will be the face of MNL48 will also be crowned. Vote for your Oshi and make her dreams come true. One account can only vote for one aspirant so choose wisely, voting opens at 3pm today on the MNL48 Plus App, and will officially end on April 27, 1pm.

The official MNL48 first generation idols will have the privilege to perform on MNL48’s soon-to-be-built theatre, will be the first Filipino endorsers of Tokyo Girls Collection, together with other Japanese girls, and will be living on the MNL48 mansion.

It says there that the remaining 41 will train here but the additional 27 "challengers" are also included in the election based on the website and the app. So does that mean that members of the ori48 may end up excluded on being a member?

I hope some clearer info and details will be given.

Love the photo, it feels like their first legit group photo as 48 aspirants.

 

Today is Madie’s Birthday! Happy Birthday to Madie

 

That's why PGT will be held in Pampanga. Oh nice, quite near in my place.

 

Im sensing another twist or gimmicks.. the existence of mnl48 challengers is still threatening.. i bet a big revelation will come this week again( i hope they end this plot twist).

 

I think the challengers are still there because they can't just send them all packing. That they will only be kenkyuusei is probably a compromise already.

It would take a special kind of stupid for them to think about playing with the format again, but we've been there once already. I am holding out hope they just leave it alone. They're starting to do the right thing already, I just hope they don't ruin it.

 

It could happen. Now that we don't even see their rankings so far.
