    I just realized from this post that off-shots are not really English words?
    It basically means off-the-camera shots/pics, so the on-shots would be the 17kenkyuujo show itself, I suppose.

    Yeah 17ken twitter is a treasure trove for high quality 17ki pics.
    And yes it was a struggle to upload so many great pics every time an episode drop, would you like to take a role for it? :)
    Over time there should be enough to fill the kenkyuusei gallery again.

    The official nicknames for 17ki fanchant/call has been decided!
    Fans are expected to use these for uniformity.
    I'll try to conform with these too, since it's the current official choices.
    via Mizumin's Twitter:
    https://twitter.com/miyuu_mizushima/status/1628370275577524225
    • Yukitan
    • Kokko
    • Aichan
    • Erichan
    • Nonchan
    • Yuki
    • Hotechan
    • Mayuu
    • Mizumin
    • Sorara

    ===============
    Yuki has been designated as 3rd gen NyanNyanKamen!

    Yuiri's remark at the end seems like has potential to be meme-able [hehe]
    "Oi NyanNyanKamen! Omae Hirata darou?!"
    Roughly meaning : "Hey NyanNyanKamen! You're Hirata, aren't ya?!"

    Also we are back to Heart Gata Virus zenza again? yay!
    and new costumes?!

    They returned to the usual zenza costumes again for the group photo though:

    AKB48 Saikin Kiita yo ne (Feb 21 25:30 JST)


    featured :
    • ANA x AKB48 collab (still mostly MV making) which has several 17ki girls taking part.
    • Yuki and Sorara's Hiroyuko theater (short drama with Hiroyuko, acting jealous for comedy)
    • Footage of 17ki helping on FLASH Editor team.
    • (Aichan, Erichan, and Yuki were helping on Yuiyui part, while Hotechan and Mayuu were on Gyoten part)
    That ANA collab was on Dec 26, seems like it was very windy and cold when they shot the MV.
    They worked hard! :)

    Also Hiroyuko really ended his career on TV Tokyo as reported on news :(
    The show will continue it seems, but who's also well aware of AKB to be his replacement?

    haha. yeah, it's more wasei eigo. i keep seeing it (especially on the 17ken tweets) and i've used it a lot myself lately to the point where it almost feels like a meme.
    by gallery you mean the gallery threads nobody really uses? hmm. well, maybe we can organize something in some 'off-messages' :huh:

    Time's up
    So these two days had two great 17ki programs !
    =======================
    AKB48 no 17ki Kenkyuusei ga RokeRoke!! 2 ~ Let's meet the Eito Paisen SP ~ (Feb 24)
    (AKB48の17期研究生がロケロケ!!2~8パイセンに会いに行こうSP~)
    [​IMG]



    It's 2 hours long, but quite worth it!
    [​IMG]
    Basically it's for 17ki to observe and learn 3 important understandings from their Eito senpais, through competitive and collaborative activities:
    • Knowledge of Contest (via 17ki vs Eito group game matches)
    • Knowledge of Live (via 17ki joining Eito's Roppongi Idol Festival's lesson and performance)
    • Knowledge of Variety (via organizing various creative Wake-up Pranks)
    Then they had to write down their inspiration in their Knowledge Notes:
    [​IMG]
    Well, all in all those are just to justify the fun activities they did together, but it seems like they actually learned quite a lot from their senpais!
    Eito girls have properly grown up and can guide their kouhai properly in variety :cute:, their reactions personally feels more experienced indeed.
    I'm particularly impressed by Momo-chan and Gunmaria this time!

    I'm surprised that the addition of 17ki to the Eito RIF performance was suddenly decided on the day, didn't think that was possible.
    Also surprised that Odaeri doesn't do any voice training and focuses on conveying the feeling instead.:shock:

    Some Screencaps:
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Sorara, Aichan, and Mizumin was also asked to do the watch-together in showroom:
    [​IMG]
    if you wanna watch it here (might be hard to pinpoint the exact time) --> link

    ===============================
    Also:
    (Longtime fans verified!) [It's not too late to start now!]
    17th gen Hako Oshi Guide! (Feb 25)
    [​IMG]


    if the video does not show watch the video here
    The long awaited Showroom special program!
    Sadly Hotechan was sick so she was absent from this.:(
    But her genmates showered her with praise and love in exchange!
    [​IMG] [​IMG]

    First, making their profile cards!
    After being together for for about 9 months of development, they rated each other in terms of Performance, Variety, Intelligence, and 1 extra category for each of their own uniqueness. (for example Yukitan's unique point is agreed to be "Singing")
    Sample: Hotechan's Profile Card:
    [​IMG]

    Then they made relationship chart of 17ki members:
    [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Then they made short simulations on how each member's showroom normally feels like.
    Lastly, a survey was made on which design will be 17ki's original Showroom Avatar!
    Yukitan's design won the votes!:1st:
    [​IMG] [​IMG]
    It's cute!:blush:

    Next stop, assuming nothing special happens on Feb 26 and 27, will be Kokko's debut on Feb 28 theater show!
    Oh also March 3 theater show will be Mayuu's Seitansai! >> https://ameblo.jp/akihabara48/entry-12790977158.html

    Thanks for the recommendation. I ended up watching the whole thing. The 17th gen member's personalities are starting to reveal themselves, even if they didn't get a massive amount of individual screen time.

    The incident where the entire team 8 team fell into the ball pit was good physical comedy. I suspect if the 17's were a tad more experienced with variety they might have started to do the same (before being jokingly told off). I'm sure when Hirata Yuki missed her kick against Oliver Karen the members outside thought it had gone in. On that note Yuki seems quite shy when compared with the other members (aside from Kokko), though in a way it does make her stand out.

    I liked Rin-chan's advice - "The concert hall is the hunting ground and we are the hunters" and also Nanase's typical advice for MCing - "Just ask whether they have had breakfast".

    Nanase's and Mizumin's dokkiri was the best, as it was funny but didn't seem too over the top.

    It seemed something was strange with Maria's eyes until Kokko pointed out they were wearing contacts. The thought of them all smuggling in a bunch of fake weapons is pretty funny.

    Overall it was a decent program, a good mix of different activities. Despite the length, I hope it's subbed soon, so I can catch any bits I missed (especially in the advice section).

    Okay, yes, something special happened on Feb 27.

    AKB48 announced label change to Universal Music Japan,
    61st single to be released on April 26
    And in the senbatsu, 3 17ki girls are included!!!:banana:
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    [​IMG][​IMG]
    Congratulations to Aichan, Sorara, and Yukinee!!

    We all expected some 17ki to get some senbatsu positions, but actually seeing it making me tear up a bit!:cry:

    Article and included comments from Yukinee and Sorara: (thanks to @David61)
    https://popnroll.tv/articles/31440

    Translated comments assisted by DeepL:
    Yuki Hirata (first senbatsu)
    Sora Yamazaki (first senbatsu)
    -----------------
    @Aka suggested here that the choice of the three might be based on twitter followers:
    I was expecting Erichan to make it just based on sales, but there are other metrics it seems.

    I hope we can see that internal senbatsu announcement footage somewhere soon!

    I'm happy that Aichan could get a 1st row position this early! It will be good for her compared to last single where her position was not that noticeable, and Sorara on the 2nd row. Also very happy for Yuki, she'll grow a lot by now I'm fairly sure!

    Thank you for including the comments from Yuki and Sora. I'm really happy for them. I was so surprised that they got picked to be in senbatsu - I was certain, if they picked another kks, it would be Eriko. But personally, Sora and Hote are my favourite members, so I'm really happy especially for Sora.

    those screen caps remind me of a calvin klein ad or something.
    yuki's comment... has she ever said so much before? i can hear the self-doubt.
    sorara's comment... i can feel the sincerity and it makes me happy and, well, she generally makes me happy.
    this would be funny if people didn't take it seriously or think that participation should be based on some other statistic/metric. that all just sounds really tacky to me but what do i know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    i haven't gotten around to seeing the 8/17 slumberparty/acid pit battle but i am looking forward to it. no time right now...AH!

    Wow, it's actually Senbatsu for 3 of them in less than a year of joining.
    Seeing is believing.

    And I like what I see

    I'm still surprised with Sorara being selected. I thought it was safe that Erichan and/or Mizumin would be selected, since Eriko's been 17ki best-seller/had performed on TV/had already performed as an under for Team B (these two latter activities Miyuu had done, too) and lately Aichan-Erichan-Mizumin have been called "the 17th gen three musketeers" and stuff.

    I see this as a tentative to maybe push Sora more? But it also makes me wonder if in the future they'll rotationate the 17ki chosen girls (minus Aichan, of course) or keep the ones who are already in but include some more. This would create chaos among the older girls fans' tho...unless they make senbatsu bigger again. But the chaos is inevitable I fear, since soon we'll have 18ki and I think it's already safe to say their ace will be senbatsu for the 62nd.

    Also the first time chant-okay show for 17ki.
    Fans were chanting all their names + 17ki call during encore.
    I missed about 3/4 of the show :(
    From the clips and photos seems like it's a fun one to watch!
    See the short funny clip by @xabizalla96 here on Kokko's thread --> http://stage48.net/forum/index.php?threads/kohama-kokone-kokko.23947/page-4#post-1787704

    Kokko is also scheduled to perform on March 3 Mayuu's Seitansai theater show.
    Same lineup, but with Yukitan instead of Yukinee.

    Eriko will also not be there since she shares position with Kokko.

    ========================================
    Speaking of Erichan,
    Her best friend Ericoberg-director is back again in time for the 3rd Fanmeeting.
    This time she'll make a Love Comedy Love Story with Nonchan as protagonist.
    Just because she wants to see Nonchan confess.

    ================================
    Well seems like the footage was sent to the press:
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]


    Maybe we'll see more on tonight's Saikin Kiita episode, which will have the (completed?) ANA MV, more footage of 17ki helping on FLASH gravures, and HADO.

    =========================
    Special 17kenkyuujo Livestream tomorrow! (Mar 1, 19:00 JST)
    [​IMG]
    https://twitter.com/akb48_17ken/status/1630182080108990464
    To celebrate the three 17ki in senbatsu, also to hear their real/live opinion on being chosen.
