[GENERAL] THE NMB48 thread!

Japanese idol groups in general, they have this color scheme that uses different tones of the same color. For example :- cherry red, rose red or strawberry red, so probably her red is with a different tone.

 

Nippon Ginkenshibu has released a practice video of the abovementioned event featuring NMB members, that will take place at Nippon Budokan behind closed doors. An online live is available for viewing on YT.

According to the translation :-

• Shiroma Miru
• Yokono Sumire

They really are MVP's. NMB has re-established it's gravure game over the last year or so.

 

new system?

 

To have a good start in 2021, 2 promotions:

• Namba Hinata in Team N
• Kitamura Mana in Team M

I'm not sure I understand well what is going on.
Anyway, NMB48 are launching a new project

Weird if the Teams are disbanded for good, the 2 promotions above don't really make sense

There are 6 groups decided on lottery: A, B, C, D, E and F

• Group A: Ishida Yumi, Kitamura Mana, Sadano Haruka, Shobu Marin, Namba Hinata, Hori Shion, Yokono Sumire, Wada Miyu

Fast thoughts: it looks like some kind of penant race revival. Hope it's more fair and less messy

 

Come on, it's a forgone conclusion that whatever team Tits Shiroma is - so, B - in is the one that's going to win thanks to the enthusiastic support of her wank-frenzied wotas - so why even bother with the pretence of this?

You know, it's sad - NMB had their day and they were a great group once in the days of Sayanee and Milky, but it's been going downhill like a granny on rollerskates the last couple of years as one key member after another has departed. Good members with character, talent and bags of personality. . . It's gonna take more than daft gimmicks like this for the group to not be a shadow of its former self.

Getting rid of that talentless tart Shiroma and focusing on upcoming new talent and improving the singles to freshen things up would be a better, simpler idea.
