    My biggest hope is that Rena Nozawa, and others from the Janken subunit participate, and place!
    I've also hoped for that to. That would mean the about 117 girls would place.

    Maybe they will expand it later? When they have full members of STU? We have under/next/future/upcoming girls.... maybe add another 16 more member.. mmm potential girls?

    Almost Girls LOL

    But yes... I was hopping they added another Girls category so that at leat 16 girls more could rank... We have Nigata AND STU now... We need more ranks!

    Nah, having the Top 80 makes it more exclusive.

    If you expand too much you'll have a girl ranking for every two and the unranked half will feel even worse.

    Plus, having to fight (pay, buy, vote) to get the girls into the ranks hypes up the sales.

    If you want to include almost everyone, just make each group have 48 members. With Senbatsu, Under, Next, Future, Upcoming, and Almost (or Totally Out of It), you have 48 x 6 = 288 ranks.
    [yes, it's a joke]

    lol in case of rainy day and severe weather, the event will be canceled. If there is thunder warnings announced then the event will be moved to another venue without audiences.

    雨天決行、荒天の場合は中止。雷注意報が出た場合は別会場に移動して、無観客で実施する予定

    Longer version from the Okinawa Times. Note that close by hotels are already fully booked.

    "As for the hotels around the venue already, the reservation was rushing from around noon on the 20th where the announcement took place, and it is fully booked. At the travel site "Jalan", the hotel in Naha City also has vacancy on June 17, only 28 at 11:30 am on 22nd. The rest is only guesthouse or over hotel of over 20,000 yen per night." (google translate)

    They don't learn!

    Why go with the possibility of cancelling the event or moving it (without audience? How lame would that be) when there are plenty of indoor venues all over Japan?

    I know they want to make it grand and whatnot, but ugg.

    I suppose going for the Nagoya or Osaka domes wouldn't show clearly the economic impact the SSK would have.

    They could have gone for Sapporo dome even. They should have learnt it after they have to cancel Yuko's grad con

    Sapporo Dome is home ground of Consadole Sapporo football team in the Jleague. So don't think they'd be able to use it while season is ongoing.

    Domes apart, there are lots of indoor venues all around Japan for this.

    Ohwell.

    I imagine next year it'll be somewhere in Hiroshima and then go to one of the other big cities once they've made it clear they're a force to be reckoned.

    And Nippon-Ham's. But since it's just one day, maybe... And they wouldn't have a problem with the field.

    I don't think they haven't learned or anything like that, it's just that those guys in Okinawa must've paid really well to host this tourn... event, while I doubt that Sapporo even cared.

    It isn't just one day though. The stage + lights need to be set up plus time to rehearse, then you need to break down the stage and equipment afterwards.
