AKB48 Question & Answer

http://lotsheep.tumblr.com/post/78221606406/to-the-fans-regarding-the-togasaki-blog

 

the 2013 releases of all the studio recordings of the stages. B4. kuchiutsushi no chocolate. is it Yukirin singing her part in the recording? it doesn't sound like her especially at this part:

joukuu tonderu
HERIKOPUTAA no oto mo
nani mo kikoenai ai towa sou iu mono

her voice sounds wild in this recording but her voice never sounds wild like that anywhere else.

 

Anyone knows what these are for?

 

They're application vouchers for the "Oshima Yuko Kanshasai" that's going to be held before she graduates the group. It's essentially a one-man handshake event.

 

Im currently watching akb48 in tokyo dome 1830m on youtube. I want to ask if this videos are complete?
Day1 1 is 1hr 20mins.
Day 2 is 1hr 49mins
Day 3 is 1hr 25mins

Thanks for the info, im planning to buy it on ebay, but since i dont have enough money right now, i think youtube will do for now...

Spoiler

 

I might be wrong but there's three "days" (Day 1, Day 2 and Day 3) and three parts of every day. So there's Day 1 Part 1, 2 and 3 for example.

 

Hi guys,

Is anyone going to Olympic Stadium? If yes, any info?
How to get tickets? The general sales? Cancellation tickets? etc.

 

Awesome! Thanks for the info waffle, please keep me posted if you have any news, I may do the same as last summer and pop in Japan if I got a concert ticket. *fingers crossed*
If AKB God listen to my prayers and make that happen maybe we can meet like last time [rock]

 

Who is she?

I was loking Bokura no Eureka and she is beautiful! And I need know she name
PD: Sorry for my bat English

 

Thank you very much! To bad she graduated

 

I saw online that the singles sales are seriously boosted by some fans that buy thousands of copies of a single CD, is it true that the number of sales that be reach doesn't reflect the fanbase properly or are those buyers fake?

 

There are people that buy hundreds of copies so they can attend the handshake events and spend a long time with members, or meet many members. Thousands of copies though.. maybe some people for the election, but that would be a minority of buyers not the standard. It's not uncommon for people to buy multiple copies in order to attend events, or even if they just want 1 of each version so they can collect all the songs or covers etc.

 

yes, not all but there are some clips on youtube. Thanks!

Thanks, i really want to buy it. But i dont have enough money right now. I bought a kendo bogu,it cost me $1000+ usd,, i feel like a BAKA right now..

ohhh,, SSA 2012 concert is also in my wishlist. yeah just wishlist.

 

Thanks! but is there really evidence to show that that is the minority then?

 

You would struggle to find any. We can only see the numbers we are given. The soundscan numbers for actual CD's sold in shops, tend to be the casual fans walking in and picking them up are your best indicator. The theatre editions tend to be ordered in bulk by the more "hardcore" fans I guess you could call them. But it's impossible to tell how many people bought them. I'm sure the numbers do exist (after all the CD's do get mailed out) but I can't imagine they'll ever be made public knowledge

 

Other than SakuHana in French and BINGO!/Oogoe Diamond in English have any of the JPN48 groups performed anything else in other languages?

 

for those who have been to Pafico Yokohama, it's that an outdoor area with tents, or with air condition normal hall?

I was looking at the site on how to get there from Shinjuku, but I'm getting puzzled, there seems to be 2 different lines that can do so from Shinjuku?

--------------------------------------------

Lastly, is there a thread where we can see the schedule of AKB48 group(as in all sister groups including AKB/SKE/NMB/HKT) concerts and handshake events, because there are now so many events that it's kinda hard to keep track, especially for people who are traveling to that region, it would be nice to have a proper list so everyone can see in a glance, rather then going to every site to double check the dates and location.
Yup, for the concerts and individual handshake, one has to have the ticket first, but if there's any national handshake event that is around the date of the individual handshake, one could just grab some tickets at reseller shops to go too, or if there's any additional individual handshake event for other singles around the date, it would be easier to plan?

 

Pacifico Yokohama is a normal event hall. Take the Shonan Shinjuku line.

Here's one website
