Single AKB48 56th [Sustainable] (2019/09/18)

Yukirin and Jurina may be on the older spectrum among the senbatsu members, but in no way do I feel like they stand out weirdly. They really are like eternal idols to me. Jurina and Yumirin are born in the same year but Yumirin doesn't stand out to you?

 

Please, don't bother asking for reasons regarding Jurina with their "kind".

Anyway, I love this set of senbatsu. The AKB to SG ratio is acceptable; the frontliners have good HS record; and Muto Tomu is included.

And personally, this is the first time that there is no one in senbatsu that I dislike.

 

In conclusion: NMB is amazing and BII has always had bangers.

Thank you for coming to my Ted-talk~

 

True but did you perhaps post this in the wrong thread?

 

Nope, right thread lol. With all these mentions of BII's "Update" and how "Sustainable" is a copy of it, I just want to reiterate the fact that BII are trendsetters and our new Idol-prophets.

 

somehow I hate the fact that so called old-jurina is not that different to yumirin and still younger than okabe rin

 

Another forgettable aside song for me. Looking back teacher teacher wasn't that bad, at least it was catchy lol

 

Oh another MIA (presumed dead) account resurrected.

Lol, I do actually like Teacher Teacher. Will wait for the MV for Sustainable.

 

I don't like Jurina but totally agree with this

Only in calendar age. People mature at different rates (both emotionally and physically), and Jurina has been under extreme pressure since a very young age, which also accelerates the aging process. And besides that we've also seen her far more and far longer than the other two, so she's also "old" in that sense. Berin is less than half of Jurina's 48G age.

 

That and she was already looked like a high school girl back when she joined in 2008. Like, everybody in this forum back then just can't get over that she's actually 11

 

Youre not annoying! Youre right. Autocorrect got me, or lack of sleep

 

I agree that Jurina looked older than her actual age back then but I think she still looks very young now. I'm born 97 as well, and I know that Asians generally look younger than white people, but a lot of people age-guess me around 18, and I think Jurina looks younger than me.

I think a lot of it really has to do with the fact that we're so used to her - she's been part of the group longer than some of us have been fans (myself included). The fact that they have been part of the group for so long seems to trick us into thinking they're old. Yuihan is five years older than Jurina (and less than a month younger than Miichan). Macharin is also younger than Jurina.

Then again, Naachan is pretty much exactly 8 months younger than Jurina, but Naachan has a more mature vibe to me and because of Jurina's cutesy idol behaviour, I sometimes think she's younger than Naachan (who is more mature and serious behaved). Although age is an objective thing, it can be perceived quite subjectively.

 

OMG YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EVERYTHING WORTH THE WAIT!

My type of song, love every minute of it!
I love this way more than any of their recent previous single! This typical classic AKB song, urge can't wait to listen to the HQ version

Their costume reminded me of Gingham check's costume!

 

The talk about Jurina reminded me how in the post acchan Mayuyu is considered as old generation while Paruru is considered as new generation although they are of similar age.

Is it kind of interesting that the talk about Jurina mature look is as old as Jurina mature look (in 48G age).

 

jurina's face is the heisei pictograph for the word "old" so yea

 

I guess it that stems from the fact that Mayuyu debuted as a 3rd gen member before Paruru (a 9th gen member)

 

I agree. You can tell Yuki isnt 18 anymore, but she doesnt look so old it is odd she is there (She did write in the calligraphy contest in AKBingo she wanted to be an eternal idol forever! ) Jurina was so young when she joined she is still not amongst the eldest. Some that have joined way later are her age or older!! That is the only time I am amazed how young she is because she has been there for such a long time I am used to seeing her even amongst the golden gen.

I think they all look fabulous. Jurina and Yuki both are two who seem to try to represent smiling, welcoming idols.
