Nagoya is the best place for all-scale event! between Kansai and Kanto in 3rd bigest city in Japan after Tokyo and Osaka but Sayanee may participate... it must be EPIC SHOW! and who know, may be Sasshi's vote will go to Sakura-tan. But who will represent AKB Yuihan?
If Nagoya's government is willing to sponsor it then AKS will snatch it up. AKS probably didnt lose much money from Okinawa since Okinawa government probably paid for much of the costs.
Tbh if the STU boat really finishes by next year, it will happen in Kobe or Hiroshima. Straight gut feeling Sent from my VTR-L09 using Tapatalk
I'm not too sure of the details but I imagine it being like a short interaction between the members and the fans and then in the end, you get a high touch. Either that or you just high touch the member and then that's it. That mostly happens with mini-concerts or something like kcon though. However, you do get to high touch everyone unless the 48G where you only get 10 seconds for one member. --- I don't really care about the location of the SSK tbh. Besides that, I doubt there's such thing as mass "transfer of votes." I mean, if Naachan graduated, I surely won't give my votes to Yuiyui. I would just give it to my ni-oshi. Maybe a ton of Sayanee's votes were given to Mirurun this year but next year, not really. Mirurun's vote increase is crazy though. Her vote increase only could have landed her 17th. Mirurun will mostly likely remain as a Senbatsu ranker so there will be no fear of no NMB representative. SKE will have Dasu if Jurina withdraws (which I doubt). Even if Jurina AND Dasu withdraws, there's still Nao too. HKT has Sakura so even if Sasshi withdraws, Sakura will still be there. It's better to give the votes to Hana other HKT members. We don't know about NGT though. Will Ogiyuka and Hinatan remain in Senbatsu or magically drop out? Anyways, Mayuyu's votes. Will Mayuyu oshis really play along to the management's tricks and vote Yuiyui? Is there any sites where Japanese potentially discuss who they are planning to vote for (though it might be a bit too early)?
Actually, I didn't. Well, I did but I also didn't. I was debating whether to put Sally or not but in the end, I just completely forgot. I think Sally is a special case, just like the NGT members, because you don't know if she'll remain or not. Especially since she is 24 years old, there MIGHT be chances that Sally will graduate in the near future unlike Dasu who might keep betting on rising up. If it wasn't for Ogiyuka, Dasu would have been 5th. However, I'm not really up to date with Sally so I don't know whether she's doing good or not.
The transfer of votes does happen, just not to girls who are close to graduated members or same gens. The vote pool has stayed around the 3 millions for years, so even if a top girl leaves, their fans will probably disperse and vote (less enthusiastically) for other girls. I wonder where Haruppi will land next year... if she goes in. The landscape is so different from the 2016 election. I hope she gets HKT’s next single center to regain some momentum. What kind of non-euclidean geometry theorem did you use to get that? Shiroma's votes in 2016: 29,983 Shiroma's votes in 2017: 41,491 Increase: 11,508 votes With 11k votes she would have ranked 93rd.
I've just found this article which was posted a short time ago on Billboard Japan: http://www.billboard-japan.com/d_news/detail/57788/2 Apologies if I've missed this in another thread, but it would seem that on Sunday at the NHK Hall in Shibuya, a selection of members from AKB, JKT, BNK and TPE will record a performance for a TV show called 'Songs of Tokyo' which will be broadcast on NHK World TV on Jan 1st & 2nd. They'll perform 4 songs - Aitakatta, Hebirote, 365 Nichi and KFC.
Thanks friend . That will be good because we can watch it outside of Japan without any hassle. https://www.nhk.or.jp/songsoftokyo/

oh man too bad for me sasshi isn't there, would have loved to see her, pin-han from tpe and jaa from bnk doing kfc.
I'm happy that there are lots of theatre girls and that it's purely AKB. Well done for once, management!
Agree. Would be better if Satopii, Reichan, Erii (our three new musketeer XD) got the call too. But I can live with this.
