Your AKB48 Experiences

Team A Thursday Aug 27th

The LOD should have my encore

Tonight was a great show. The only thing that was a little bittersweet was that I dont know if this will be the last time I see Miichan as a Team A member, so I gave it all I could.

They also performed iiwake maybe.

Sounds the same to all the rest of the songs to be honest. I'm getting lost between Oogoe Diamond, Namida, and now this. I cant tell them apart

 

^
haha, good for you to enjoy the show
Sounds like you haven't see a show that often anymore, to have lost between song.

 

woot!! NICE!!! ahahha u did which encore? the normal or the AKB 48~ eheheh~

 

wow Tatami you're so Lucky, i wanna watch that LOD

 

here is the review of my first ever concert.
Well first off big thanks to Tatami for joining me and to Hiro@Vegas for the glow sticks!!!
Well it was just wonderful....it was like a dream....
Since it was the first time i didnt really care about the setlist.
Any setlist would have been great.
I and tatami got 1st floor seats on the southwest side of the hall (there was Arena on the ground floor, 1st floor and 2nd floor). Could see the whole stage from our seats..

Some impressions:
- Opening announcement by Yuko cant really tell what she said because i got sooo exited when i heard her voice...only thing i remeber is that she explained the MIX (Tiger,Fire,Cyber....etc) and ketcha thing to the crowd and the whole concert hall went crazy.

- Opening act: AKB sanjo: great song to open a concert if you ask me...followed by 10nen zakura and oogoediamond...to be honest i dont really remember much of those performances..i was so exited and was in a "wow is this really reality am i really seeing my fav. girls on stage" state of mind. took me a while till i really got back to reality.

-Tobenai agehacho. first time for me to hear this song...i thought it fits meetans sexy image.

Wimbledon he tsureteitte. Well to be honest i dindnt care much about SKE so i didnt pay attention to this song...lol

- First Love...wow Erena in her cute seifuku...cute song

- nattou angel. well first i didnt even realise it was Nattou angels so i didnt pay much of attention...when i finally realized it was tomochin, tomoomi amd Miyao on the stage 90% of the song was over...OTL

-Nagisa no cherry...only one word to say about this song: ACHAN!!!

- Blue rose...Sayaka Wow....well i knew she was cool and all...but during Blue Rose...wow..she just blew me away....i couldnt take my eyes of her during that song....so i dont really know what happened on stage other than Sayaka singing Blue Rose...lol

- pajama drive. mayuyu, harugon and nachan. i am not 100% sure but i think they had some new pajamas i didnt notice on the LODs...

- End Role great dance number by Umeshimanatsuyo. I never really liked this song on the Lods but seeing it performed live is just a other thing...now i must say i love this number.

- Bye Bye Bye the no3bs girls.....really like this song..but to be honest most impressive thing was tatami shouting for miichan...lol

- manatsu no Xmas rose ....Mariko-Sama!!!

- Tsundere: never liked this song and this impression didnt change seeing it live...so didnt pay much attention.

- MARIA takamina in Yukas role. great performabce...and Takamina...where does she get all this power....

- Mikachii graduation...yukirin and Mikachii enter stage...and well i started to get tears in my eyes...temodemo no naimda really moving when all the other B members came out every one gave Mikachii flowers. And Me ? yeah you guessed right by this time i was crying...lol

- Risa graduation. Team K with Yuka (yuka was only announced for 1 song) enters stage and Sayaka calls Risa to the stage. Yuko announces that this will really be the last time to perform Sasae with this lineup. I really love Sasae and thinking that i will never be able to see this lineup again (well lets hope for AX'10) made my even more emotional...during Sasae when every member call their name oku and Mocchi, who where absent that day, appeared on the big screen and took part in it. And then Risas turn...still get wet eyes just thinking about that moment. Same with Mikachii all Team K members give risa soe flowers.

- melos no michi, Only today and run run run....still moved by the graduation ceremony that ended i wasnt realy able to concentrate of what was going on stage.....

- Cindy, Mayuyu and Yukirin enter stage and held a little MC and then called all the B members to the stage and formed a ring. and yes its going to be shonichi....
whole crowd joins team B with "itsumo kansha, reisei ni, teinei ni, seikaku ni , minna no yume ga kanai masu youni Team B" one of my favorite team B songs so i was really happy to see them perform it..

- suifu wa arashi ni yume wo miru still excited that i saw shonichi live i wasnt really able to concentrate on this song...so no comments...lol

- SKE part..not much interested in SKE so didnt pay much attention ot this and Tsukinas graduation. Tsuyokimono was a nice song and i liked it.

-Romance irane, Boku no taiyo, Baby baby baby, Bingo I liked this combination performed by team A,K and B together.

- Namida surprise Team A.K.B and S on stage....before the song started members asked the crowd about who has his birthday today and it seems that all attending fans had their birthday at that day...lol really liked this performance

- encore
AKB at tokyo dome and collaboration with yomiuri shinbun is shown on the screen.
Performance of iiwake maybe. First time for me to hear this song in full and i must say i loved it from the first moment on.

-Aitakatta well this is the song that really made me an AKB fan so i was really excited to see this song performed by all members from Team a,k,b, research and S.

- Hikouki gumo a other great song and with all the members performing makes this song even better. Only thing i regret was that i didnt bring or buy a towel for that song.

- Skaura iro no sora no shita de
all members including Risa, Mikachii and tsukiina. Graduating members where standing in the center of the stage and during the song the place where they stood got eleveted about 4 to 5 meters. well me got tears in my eyes again....thought it was a great song for a graduation ceremony.
After the song the graduating members (Risa was escorted by Amina) went to center stage to say a last goodbye to the fans.

All in all a great concert with a great graduation ceremony. After the concert i was sooo excited that i couldnt wait for the evening show to start...but more on the evening show later...still havent got over the shock...and to be honest i really dont remeber much of what happened during that show...

 

thanks for the review! and congrats with ur 1st experience! have fun as maximum as u can while u in japan!

Aug 29th 2009!

After 3yrs of visiting AKB theater, my 93rd show (including G-Rosso & SDN)
I got in with 1-jun for first time!

During the high-touch time, girls know my face (6th inside1,6,10,19,25,29 & twice cafe15, 30)
very front girl, Akita Kazue, goes 'congrtz to the front row!'
and all girls after that follwed with 'congratz" , 'how was the front?', 'thanks for coming again'....etc
best high-touch session ever!

one worry... since Budokan concert, my meetan has been really down.
even during the show,(check her blog entry on 29th) her eye was all red, and very depressed.
all i can say to her was 'daijoubu?'
and all she could do was nod twice.

anyrates,other than meetan's situation, I am soo happy!
I bet ppl around me will be so pleasant for nest week or so

 

@tatami: wow! nice encore! i wish next time i can do that~ lol i dunno bout koba hope to see him next time...

@lyin: woot nice 2shot! more gaijin 2shot with team B girls~

@hiro: congrats! front row! hope i can get a chance next time! now even the SDN girls know u~~~ im totally envy u T-T ehehhee... 2 more shows to go!

 

Went for Watarirouka Hashiritai's PV shoot today

Spoiler

Won't elaborate on the details of the song/PV since we've been bribed 8D
Apparently, if there's no leaks of the song/pv at all by the 16th Sept (which is when they will release details) we will receive a premium file SENT to our homes

All I can say is, this is definitely better than Yaruki Hanabi lol
Cuteness overload and they were SO near.
The last time I participated in Oogoe Diamond's recording, all we had to do was to cheer, but this time, we were made to memorise their dance and to dance along
It was really fun and the girls were so nice

However, I have to say boy are pony canyon evil.
They didn't state any conditions to sign up for the extra but they OBVIOUSLY filtered anyone above 20-ish.
Even Mayuyu(?) accidentally said "ah everyone today are arnd 19, 20, 2... oh..." *makes shit i wasnt allowed to say that face*

XD

 

^ lol. incredible bribe. .
when the details do come out, i will be harassing you with more questions. XD. i'm pretty sure you have a good story to tell. hehe.

 

wow. so they allowed extra that are below 20 ? pretty devilish

 

lol rui, that sounds like it was fun. I'm eager for your review as soon as you are allowed to do it. And LOL at the fact that they bribed you guys XD

 

autographed meetan essay and pics from today's event

was able to talk with her for good 30secs
(my ticket # was 23 of 500)

but as it goes on, handshake time ended up to 5~10secs at the end
felt sorry for very end of the line.

 

^^nice autograph, hiro. I was hoping for a long review, but that's OK.
now waiting for rui to tell her story.

 

LONNNNNNNNNNNNNNG overdue Meetan review XD

Well, I am really sad I couldnt hand it to her personally ):
They dont even allow us to hold our bags when we go up to her, so I had NO chance of sneaking a whole album to her.
Nevertheless, I told her as much as I can that I collected messages from everyone here and translated it, left it in the box with presents and I hope she would read it and like it. When I first told her that it was from all over the world she went O_O EHHH! And she says she would definitely read it and she thanks everyone for the messages

Well, the second round I went up, I just told her that Ive been to SDN48 twice, but I havent seen her yet. And that for the first time in my life, I am glad that I am over 18 XD She lold XD

--

Went for Team B's show tonight, was called in like 11th?-ish, I cant really remember but more than 10jun but some idiot left a spot on the second row empty, so grabbed it
View was awesome, and seat in front of me didnt exist cause it was the pillar next to me and the camera in front of the pillar
Had a trillion eye contacts and many many many fanservice from Lovetan and Haachan. Total bliss.
