In the first introductory episode, Bananaman mentioned 46 Hour TV and a discussion they had on their radio show about wanting to do an 86 hour show. I think they filmed these episodes the week after the 46 Hour TV -- last days of February and beginning of March. So what we watch with the 5th Gen intros is really their first steps as members.
they just announced all their light sticks' colors in the 46 mins TV before the 10th Birthday Live not sure if i got them right Nagi White Red Aya white white Sakura pink green Satsuki pink light blue Aruno light blue turquoise Nao turquoise turquoise Iroha pink light green Mao turquoise blue Teresa white green Miku light blue light blue Hina blue purple
Satsuki - light blue, pink Sakutan - pink, green Aya - white, white Nagi - red, white Iroha - pink, light green Nao - turquoise, turquoise Aruno - light blue, turquoise Mao - turquoise, blue Tersapan - green, white Miku - light blue, light blue Okamoto - blue, purple
lol, might as well jump in with another light stick post. These were the 5ki’s personal explanations for their colors during the pre-concert broadcast. I also indicated if combinations were used before. Ioki Mao (Turquoise, Blue) – Ocean and sky colors. Ikeda Teresa (Green, White) – The fresh greenery of May and the white light of May, her birth month. Previously Nishino’s colors. Ichinose Miku (LightBlue x 2) – Miku's name means 美 beautiful 空 sky. Previously Shiraishi’s colors. Inoue Nagi (Red, White) – She’s been told she has a red image. She says red and white were also Ranze-san’s colors. Previously also Mahiro’s colors. Okamoto Hina (Blue, Purple) – She asked her family what colors suit her and they held a family meeting to decide. Previously Shinuchi’s & Ikoma’s colors. Ogawa Aya (White x 2) – It goes with Aya's name, which means 彩 coloring. She hopes after many years, she’ll hold a rainbow of colors in her heart. Previously Hoshino’s & Inoue Sayuri’s colors. Okuda Iroha (Pink, LightGreen) – She debated between choosing her own favorite colors or Hinako-chan’s colors, but she chose Hinako-chan’s because she wants to carry on her nine-year legacy. Kawasaki Sakura (Pink, Green) – She loves pink. Green is the leaves of the 桜 cherry tree. Previously Momoko’s colors. Sugawara Satsuki (LightBlue, Pink) – She wanted light blue, no matter what. She says light blue and pink were also Takayama-san’s colors. Previously also Junna’s colors. Tomisato Nao (Turquoise x 2) – Cute sky color. She also likes similarly colored “Garigari-kun” ice popsicles. Nakanishi Aruno (LightBlue, Turquoise) – She likes blue, so she chose bluish colors.
And if you're not convinced enough at what their penlight colors are... if the video does not show watch the video here
29th single - 13th round Meguri result: 1. Sugawara Satsuki - 18/18 (7th round sold out) 2. Inoue Nagi - 18/18 (7th round sold out) 3. Ichinose Miku - 18/18 (7th round sold out) 4. Ioki Mao - 18/18 (8th round sold out) 5. Ogawa Aya - 18/18 (9th round sold out) 6. Tomisato Nao - 18/18 (10th round sold out) 7. Ikeda Teresa - 5/18 (+5) 8. Okuda Iroha - 0/18 It takes a while but finally Teresa sold out some slots. I'm sure she can do better next single.
Iroha is still struggling a bit, huh? :/ I get that the first impression on her seemed quite dull (at least her introduction video seemed kind of dull to me), but in Nogichuu and Star tanjo she seems to be quite a sweetheart. I hope that she can climb up from there. Happy for Teresa, though, she has such an interesting personality!
In general 5kis are really setting high bar on the visual but damn. Aya & Satsuki are not only looking pretty but also really photogenic.
29th single - 14th round Meguri result: 1. Sugawara Satsuki - 18/18 (7th round sold out) 2. Inoue Nagi - 18/18 (7th round sold out) 3. Ichinose Miku - 18/18 (7th round sold out) 4. Ioki Mao - 18/18 (8th round sold out) 5. Ogawa Aya - 18/18 (9th round sold out) 6. Tomisato Nao - 18/18 (10th round sold out) 7. Ikeda Teresa - 9/18 (+4) 8. Okuda Iroha - 0/18 Teresapan managed to sold out the remaining slots.
Yeah, poor Iroha, she hasn't gained interest despite being moderately pushed. It's hard to stand out when 5ki standard is so high. I hope she can find an element where she can shine.
Lol, I still cannot understand the mechanism of Meguri. as per, How many people can do Meguri in one slot?
Teresa and Nagi were guest on Kubo channel - Teresa wached Kubo's SR audition 2016 - Teresa went to an All girls Highschool - Nagi is a huge Anime fan , she have watched Eva , SAO , Terraformars (Kubo was surprised to hear this ) and Haikyuu (Kubo a fan of this as well ) - Kubo also compared the gap between 3ki and 5ki and how the 5year gap is the same with 1ki and 3ki
More stuff from Kubo channel: - For the 1st omitatekai, Nagi was nervous about seeing fans, so she performed the whole thing without wearing contact lenses. For the 2nd omitatekai, she wore contacts and got super nervous seeing people up close. - They compare 5ki and 3ki omitatekai outfits. Kubo notices 5ki wear outfits longer than knee-length—a generational fashion gap. - During the 3rd stage of the auditions, the interviewer told Nagi that many applicants this time presented drawings, and asked her why she thought that was? Nagi replied, perhaps they were influenced by Kaki? - Nagi presented her drawings throughout her entire audition. At the final audition, Nagi was returning from the restroom carrying a sketch in her arms, when Teresa saw her for the first time and asked, “Hey, which art school are you attending?” - Teresa didn’t present her art in her audition. She talked about it and told the interviewers she would bring it to the final audition, but then she forgot and apologized to the judges. - Kubo asks what work they most want to do in Nogi. Teresa wants to be a model. Nagi says script reading or voice acting. Nagi originally didn’t have much interest in the entertainment industry, she doesn’t watch much TV, only news or anime. But there was a time when she wanted to be a voice actress because of anime. - Teresa attended a girls’ school with a culture where students were obligated to give chocolates to senpai, so she’s both given and received chocolates.
if the video does not show watch the video here Tidbits: • (4:28) Nagi moves a lot during sleep (tosses and turns). One time when Miku, Nagi and Aruno were asleep, Nagi's legs somehow ended up on top Aruno's legs and her face right next to Miku's. • (5:12) Satsuki and Mao are the same: Satsuki would grab the blanket/comforter of the person sleeping next to her, but Mao on the other hand would hug you like a pillow, and even hold your hand. • (6:08) Although Aya has mentioned during the (1st) omitatekai that she's not a picky eater, she lowkey removes the negi from her rice when eating. Satsuki also doesn't like negi. • (6:39) Satsuki and Aruno also don't eat vegetables, although the former has recently began eating tomatoes. (Tomato is a fruit though)
