Re: THE AKB48 thread! So absurd. Did they have to write "YOU" above the fat guy's picture? That sure isn't me. Actually all us fans look like that. [nod]
Re: THE AKB48 thread! ^ lol .. I think you guys should stop .. this is getting a little ridiculous .. but seriously .. doesn't this campaign destroy the idea of "pure" idols? it's like they are marketing the girls as ... sex objects ... this is a little messed up ...
Re: THE AKB48 thread! Oh, now that I was going to give my contribution... Spoiler ...idols who take your time, then your money and finally even... [sealed]
Re: THE AKB48 thread! [shock] What if a female joins and sends her scans? Would they still process it even though it's impossible or would they make it exclusively for guy fans only?
Re: THE AKB48 thread! I guess the computer would process them, too. As long as it's just something virtual it doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl who sends the scans...
Re: THE AKB48 thread! Damn I just can' imagine the fat guy near Yuko's photo, its really creeping me out. Aki-Ps head surely is loosing some screw. Ah well I am not a Japanese I might be interpreting it wrong, but damn this video is creeping me out really. [puke]
Re: THE AKB48 thread! ^ ^ Yeah, that makes perfect sense, I think my imagination was just running a bit wild. I was imagining some anomaly of some sort ...but really doing the cross between two female's pictures would just result in a more female looking baby wouldn't it? Geez, I guess I was just thinking with my fingers (like on the keyboard) and not with my head. It's supposed to be "YOU" lol I speculate that they picked the ugliest/fattest looking guy they can find so people would feel less threatened and jealous of the "image mating" going on (eww, that sounds so dirty). However, it would probably just end up insulting people with the insinuation that akb fans look like that. Or, for those who do look like that, the effect wont work.
Re: THE AKB48 thread! Another day, another ad/tie-in. Looks like they are now promoting tutoring: http://www.trygroup.co.jp/index.html I recall Mayu Watanabe once had an ad tie-in with a home tutoring agency?
Re: THE AKB48 thread! ^ There is nothing they won't promote now is there? But at least tutoring is much better than making babies ..
Re: THE AKB48 thread! Oh, they've been doing ads for TRY for quite some time now. Mayu und Sumire are themselves both enrolled in their correspondence school.
Re: THE AKB48 thread! ^ ^ ^ wow wow... This service offers a "Support phone message" from an AKB??? With all this crazy strategies (AKBaby... ) they will end running an "AKB Hot Line" The CM use upcoming TEAM B's song: Yobisute Fantasy
Re: THE AKB48 thread! Was going to go to sleep, but... Yahoo! JAPAN presents No Sleeves on Ustream live right now. http://www.ustream.tv/channel/yjsplive-20111102
Re: THE AKB48 thread! ^ Awesome! Thanks! But why now... I'm at campus and the labs are gonna shut in a few minutes. ed: At least I got to see a few songs before I have to dash for the door... Thanks so much pure! [rock]
