    The last one got released in October 2011.

    Considering that it was pretty much the same thing as the previous year, I wouldn't be too surprised if there was no release for it. Last time I talked to staff they did make it sound as if it was on the horizon but that's no guarantee for it. It could be coming out in a short while or not at all. As of now there's no definitive release plans.

    About a week ago Togasaki said on G+ and Twitter that it was still potentially in the works as a BD release.

    Does anyone know if the stuff they do (MC and performances) at handshake events like they're doing this weekend at SSA will be available anywhere (streaming sites, DVD, etc)?

    I'd love to see all the stuff they do during these events, but from all I've found is that the only way we get to see this is through fan cams.

    i've noticed that akimoto sayaka's presence is hit and miss when it comes to releases (like being a senbatsu sometimes and an undergirl at others) and i noticed she's not in any of the songs from 1830m disc 2 (or in First Rabbit). but according to her wiki page she hasn't graduated, and she's still in the b-sides for So long!, UZA etc.
    so what's up with that? i'm wondering why she wouldn't be on any of the songs from 1830m other than the singles, and i'm assuming iede no yoru (the Team K song).

    EDIT: she's also completely absent from Eien Pressure :wtf:

    well she wasn't in eien pressure cus she didnt place in the top 16 in janken senbatsu and eien pressure was a janken song
    as far as her decreased presence, im not 100% sure but i would attribute it to two things
    one, management is always trying to find and push newer girls and its not as if sayaka's new or young and not like she has a growing fan base compared to the fresher faces
    also she has had plenty of appearances on tv shows outside of akb and also shes had musicals, tv dramas, and movies so shes also been busy
    only things that i could think of

    oh right, janken singles. i am still not totally familiar with how their singles work (this is not another question in disguise, i will figure that stuff out later). thanks for your help! i'm just used to certain members like tomochin and mayuyu always being at the front, but i guess the girls that aren't as popular won't always be at the front of everything.

    Basically, there is the annual senbatsu sousenkyo, in which the fanbase decides the front girls for _one single_ per year.
    Then, there is the Janken Tournament, where the members themselves "decide" the senbatsu, again for only _one_ single.
    The senbatsu for other singles are decided by management. Of course, senbatsu sousenkyo is a very good indicator for upcoming singles, but especially the lower senbatsu ranks (10ish to 16ish) may be exchanged at will, or getting little screen time compared to the top members.
    Sayaka, being always on the edge between senbatsu and under girls anyway, and ranking 20th last year, is often a victim of these management decisions. However, as stated earlier, she has a vital non-AKB career, so this wouldnt affect her so much.
    As more and more of the old gen members are about to graduate in near future, management has to push some new gen member to fill in the gaps. This affects screen time of lower ranking senbatsu members.

    I didn't see a Q&A in the NMB forum, so I guess I could ask this here...

    Could anyone tell me who's this girl in the middle, between Milky and... whoever that other one is? lol

    I was watching the SSA concert and she catched my eye. [shock]
    Just like Ripopo. Now I understand why they transfered her to Team A (although I feel like Sayaka should be put there too).

    I think that is AINA FUKUMOTO. Her nickname is Ainyan.

    Yay, thanks!! :inlove:

    It's hard to look for girls in generasia, since the hairstyles change a lot and pictures there use to be a bit old. [think]

    Feel free to ask anything you like and join in, the NMB thread tends to be quieter than some threads, but we're a fairly nice bunch :p

    I heard that so long is the 6th Sakura theme single. The three others that I know are sakura no ki ni narou, sakura no shiori, and Sakura no hanabiratchi. What are the other two?
