AKB48 the Audishow Showroom urgent delivery! That pose on the self introduction if the video does not show watch the video here ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Poor Manaka she cried cause she's afraid of disappointing her fans because she was not chosen into senbatsu member for the AKB Tandoku concert if the video does not show watch the video here ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Turns out i need some megane Manaka in my life
Just when you thought you can't love her more, the senpais have spoken if the video does not show watch the video here My translation: Yuihan : Okay so which junior gets your attention? Mion : Oo good stuff Y: For me umm…Yuiyui too, but afterall it's gotta be Manaka. Shiichan: In which part (do you like her) ? Y: Manaka has a really strong personality. M: Yeah yeah Y: I want you guys to imagine this, especially Shiichan. You entered AKB as a junior and it's a situation where there's senior members around. Even though you know that they did the choreo wrong, you will need courage to tell them. S: I definitely can't tell them M: Haha I can't Y: But Manaka really keeps (the choreo) in her head and remember them. So she can speak, "I think this part should go like this." And she's right. S: heeee M: Yeah Y: I think that's amazing. She have courage. M: That's true. Over LINE, She gave proposals about what AKB should do. Y: Yeah. Mion too huh? S: It's like. How we go from here for example, because there's so many people, we can't bring ourselves to speak out. And so we held meetings for that. And like if they tell us, "Any questions? you have something to speak? what do you want to do?" And everybody just silent. On the other hand, Manaka was like "Hai!" Y: She did! S: That really surprised me. Speaking up In that place where all members are present…I'm already 14 years in here, but it's impossible for me. Id just go "ahh…" in silence and suddenly like, "Hai!, this and this goes like this, how should we go with that? I think that part should go like this." Amazing! Amazing! I thought. M: So cool. S: And her voice is properly loud. M: Haha Y: Her voice is properly loud? Haha S: At situation like that it will get low for normal Japanese. That's like foreigner level. M: hahaha S: To speak up her opinion Y: Amazing right? S: I'm super Japanese so…I had my own opinion but, if I speak up now they will say something behind my back…They will all watch me, right? I don't like that and I'd just LINE my manager about it later. Y: hahaha M: I know that feeling S: You know? M: I know that. It's like "I don't have to say it now anyway." S: Yeah yeah that's what amazing about it. Y: Yeah amazing. S: I'm jealous about that and I think it's cool. Y: I think there's a lot of 'strong' juniors nowadays M,S: yeah S: They write 'the next soukantoku'. Y: Oh right…I think she's ready to be captain for example. M: She fits that description, you can definitely imagine it. Y: yeah S: I'm jealous ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ And not just that, Miichan and Miki found their new oshi in Manaka because of the last concerts https://twitter.com/rrriii22/status/1398640879686930433 Translation: Miichan: There's someone I like lately, and it's probably the same with you. Nishino: My oshimen? M: Yeah, I also like her. Taguchi Manaka N: Manakachan. I watched her on 17live. She's so cute, have amazing expressions, and dances well. I found my oshimen. M: From rehearsals, she's really active. "What about this or this? Please tell me. What about this choreo?" she asked. Because of that, Just by Manaka being there it somehow just sums it up. N: Amazing. And she's still young, right? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dumping the last audishow SR just in case if the video does not show watch the video here

I really appreciate all the updates @LarcKen , I haven't been very into AKB lately but you're keeping me tethered with the Manaka news
We can't forget the Sentimental Train performance with Manaka as center She just fits like a glove everytime she does center position. Definitely a center type girl. And this is my longtime opinion far before i turned to a hopeless fan if the video does not show watch the video here
Congrats for TV Tokyo music festival appearance! She got a great position on the front for Ponishu! thank u much AKB Koichun https://twitter.com/HEARTSTATION648/status/1410183303290769414 Ponishu https://twitter.com/HEARTSTATION648/status/1410182923538485251 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Top Yell magazine with Naamin! Offshot & preview https://twitter.com/48manaka_16/status/1410156489285660675
Okay, here's my take on the whole senbatsu situation. This will also apply to Naamin. The fact that they both are in the regular 7 members on Audishow is definite proof that the management treated them as important or very important members. And that we can take it as either one of two signs. One being "get ready for senbatsu position", and the second being "We're really sorry we got other priorities for senbatsu right now, please or pretty please can you guys make do for now with the Audishow thing?". As we now know that we got the second one. And if management have any semblance of logic, senbatsu position is just a matter of time for Manaka and Naamin. Oh yeah, This pattern also apply to Maho with her regular TV senbatsu position. And we can make do with Manaka's new photopack
Manaka will be a guest singer on Yoshimasa's concert together with Saki! https://twitter.com/everydayyoshim1/status/1423601351188094976 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Speaking of singing, she did some karaoke on SR today if the video does not show watch the video here
