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

Ohh the Cm shows previews of the music video! it looks really fresh with the nature, and they are outdoor! it feels so "classic AKB" like Aitakatta type. I'm loving it I can't wait for the full version!

 

The seifuku Moeka wore looks exactly like Aitakatta

 

Those PV clips are making me optimistic for this single.

Things that would make me like this single even more:

1. Good alternative uniforms. The seifuku right now is okaaay but something feels wrong with it. Though I guess its just me since I've read more comments liking them.

2. Good screentime for the front girls but at least one solo/duo screentime for all senbatsu members (Sentimental Train is almost a good example).

3. Unlikely but I hope they can get a CM deal or promotion partnership with this song.

This single feels like the best attempt of AKB to present a "new AKB" with just the right amount of "golden age of AKB" so as not to alienate casuals and old geners fans, acceptable number of pure AKB members in senbatsu but with reps from all sister groups.

Fingers crossed on this one.

 

That Aitakatta-inspired costume... I'm pretty sure someone gave the hint

 

Is it just me or does it look like a bad hair day for Moeka in that clip ?

 

^ yeah that hairstyle doesn't look very flattering on her

 

No love for the Takakura Moeka style haircut?

 

Damn another reminisce to Aitakatta huh?

 

They created a remake of the music video on a pretty recent AKBINGO episode too... Moeka was part of that episode (but Oya Shizuka centered it).

 

It looks to me that she went to aidaman-san, since I can't tell any difference.

Anyway, taking into consideration that some don't have gimmicks and the difference between allocated slots, from the first round of resales a tandoku AKB senbatsu would be something like this:

Spoiler

Mukaichi Mion
Yokoyama Yui Classic
Yahagi Moeka
Muto Tomu
Kashiwagi Yuki
Kubo Satone
Omori Maho (questionable)
Murayama Yuiri
Okada Nana
Yamauchi Mizuki
Oguri Yui
Okabe Rin
Shitao Miu
Kuranoo Narumi
Ota Nao
Sakaguchi Nagisa

And an Eito senbatsu:

Oguri Yui
Okabe Rin

Yokoyama Yui Contemporaneous
Hashimoto Haruna
Ota Nao
Yoshikawa Nanase
Sato Akari
Sakaguchi Nagisa
Onishi Momoka
Gyoten Yurina
Nagano Serika
Takahashi Ayane
Sato Nanami

Since sister groups have their own singles, I can't really judge an all-star senbatsu by these numbers.

16th generation and D3 sales don't look that good, except Zukkii, Moeka and Maho. With AKB's 17th generation auditions starting yesterday, these girls (their fans?) need to do something about it. The 16th generation members aren't exactly rookies anymore.

 

and Eito 2.0s

they need to do more theatre

 

Let them join the 17th generation and you'll see.

Why didn't you say something about Gyoten? Why did I even waste my time?

 

next year is ours!

I thought "Eito senbatsu" would show everyone her amazing 10th place in Eito hiearchy, instead it was a reminder of what terrible team she is a part of

 

wait what?!?!?

 

Think about who you're replying to.

 

Touche.

But yeah, you can almost call it that since it's so many new in one go.

I'm glad to see Rei and Maho selling 6 or 7 slots! Both of them are really cute and I hope they'll have more opportunities after this ^^/ same for Satopii, I'm glad she's doing well!

Btw here are some screenshots of the Sustainable music video preview from the Cm for reference:



and now we wait

 

In Moeka's thread @naruse posted a translation of her latest mobame and as it's about her being the center of Sustainable and how other people reacted to that, we thought it should also be posted here:
