    Well if we disband team 4 then they should distribute 9 girls to have 18 member/team while the other 9 can go to kaigai again lol. 2 for BNK, 2 for JKT, 2 for TTP, 2 for TSH, 1 CGM. Not mentioning MNL bc I know they're poor

    If they want to hold 16 member stages again then they need 20+ members per team.

    I completely forgot that they only have 10 kks rn, but wouldn't having 20+ member in one team make the team overcrowded? I remember having easier time to memorize the entire team when it's only 16 member/team bc I only need to memorize the member in unit song. Wouldn't it be better to pause KKS stage first and let them focus being an under for 16 member team? It will also increase their chance of exposure to team dynamic

    The National Police Agency's 'SOS47' crime prevention project has today released around 200 YouTube videos each presented by individual 48 and 46 group members on the theme of fraud awareness. I've just posted videos in a few members' threads but there's way too many for me to do so maybe others here could do it for their oshis if they want to? (waves at @Aka as there's a lot of Eitos ;)). This is the address of the YouTube channel:

    JKT48 fans carrying AKB48's popularity on Spotify. Yeah they tend to listen AKB48 (original) versions of some songs like Koisuru Fortune Cookie, Futari Nori no Jitensha & Only Today as well as Green Flash & Seventeen that are popular among JKT48 fans but JKT48 versions still unreleased yet

    Only Today, Futari Nori no Jitensha & Seventeen, songs that many AKB48 fans ignore, Green Flash, a single that was considered a flop because it failed to reach 1 million sales but these songs become cults in JKT48 fandom

    Unfortunately, very few listen to as AKB48's recent songs/singles like Hisashiburi no Lip Gloss

    At least, AKB48 successfully surpasses Nogizaka46 on Spotify

    Yeah, most Jpop idols don't consider the importance of digital music platforms like Spotify & iTunes, they still focus on CD sales but digital music platforms are more relevant in international audience. This makes AKB48 & Nogizaka46, even Sixtones & Snow Man look like unknown artists comparing to Jpop artists who are actually popular on digital music platforms like Fujii Kaze, Yoasobi, Official Hige Dandism, & Ado. There're barely idols on this list

    As I mentioned in the 61st Single thread, AKB48 will perform 'Flying Get' tomorrow (3/22) on NTV's 'Premium Music 2023' - according to this tweet from AKB48 Staff it'll be a collaboration with comedian, singer and actor Fujimori Shingo:

    On the message video for CDTV, they said that AKB appeared on the program for a total of 74 times! Hiichan asked Yukirin how many times she appeared, and Yukirin said that she was probably in around 70 of those 74 performances XD She talked about a memory, when they performed during a CDTV Christmas Special, around 4 years ago, and it was at Tokyo Tower, with illuminations and everything. For the song that they'll perform, they just said that it's a song you think about when it comes to AKB. well, it's going to be Koisuru or Heavy Rotation probably lol it's expected ^^; Btw Erii looks so pretty with this hair <3

    Okay hear me out... I know we've all heard Hebirote time and again, BUT...

    CDTV is doing a Top 140 countdown, which started yesterday (Thursday, 30th) and they showed the top 140 to 100 (you can watch it for free HERE on the official website for 2 weeks. May require Japanese VPN). FYI, many AKB songs ranked (see below). Additionally, they said the #1 will be a big performance and it'll be a song that everyone knows and can sing along too.

    If they have four 48 groups announced to perform Hebirote together, I'm inclined to believe they'll be number 1 :fear:

    139. Kibouteki Refrain
    136. High Tension
    133. LOVE TRIP
    130. Eien Pressure
    107. Kimi wa Melody
    105. UTA
    102. Heart Ereki

    The songs to be performed by 48g and Sakamichi are:

    AKB48 - River
    SKE48 - Pareo wa Emerald
    NMB48 - Bokura no Eureka
    HKT48 - Melon Juice
    AKB + SKE + NMB + HKT - Heavy Rotation
    Nogi - Synchronicity
    Sakura - BAN
    Hinata - Kimi Shika Katan

    Also, the following songs should be included in the top 100 but we don't know the ranking yet (sorted by released in this list):
    • Everyday, Kachuusha
    • Flying Get
    • Kaze wa Fuiteiru
    • Ue kara Mariko
    • GIVE ME FIVE!
    • Manatsu no Sounds good!
    • Gingham Check
    • Sayonara Crawl
    • Koi Suru Fortune Cookie
    • Labrador Retriever
    • Bokutachi wa Tatakawanai
    • Halloween Night
    • Tsubasa wa Iranai
    Songs from 2017 onwards aren't known yet (source)
