[GENERAL] The Sakamichi Series group thread

Please note that it(Hiragana) is an experimental plan. And being the first implement in Sakamichi series, expect some bad decision to occur, such as not being a part of Kouhaku. There will be more bad decision as the time goes, but it will be the time they grow the most, as painful as it is(Which I personally hope to be a success for paving the way to Unders development).

Should be enjoyable to see their journey this year.

 

Yeah, I do believe that Unders are a brand as itself. I personally am more of a supporter of the Unders among all the three powers. And of course it still means I am supporter of the whole Nogizaka.

It's just I hope the name of that brand that I hope can be changed. Attaching the term "Unders" to the whole unit makes them sounds like a collection of lesser members in which they aren't.

Hinachima said so in her interview that she hopes it can be renamed into something else. I don't know if it will be a good thing or not, or whether it's even possible.

And yes it's a shame to see the state of Hiragana Keyakizaka. A sister group? But they are still phonetically called the same name and the public rarely see them carrying the brand "Keyakizaka". An "Unders"-like unit? But they are not subbing any of the Kanji at all.

Reflecting the state of Hiragana, it makes me think maybe Unders should stay as Unders unless Sony has found out the masterplan to solve this puzzle through Keyakizaka.. True fans of the Unders will truly stay with them no matter what names they possess anyway.

 

everyone!! akimashite omedetou!

RE: SakamichiAKB

I predict that it's going to be 3rd Gen and Hiragana this time out. Momoko, Yamashita, Yoda, and Riria from Nogi. Since I'm not too familiar with Hiragana, umm, Kumi, Katou, Kyonko, Memi.

 

you forgot techi man, they cannot perform without techi

 

That’s just Kanji. SakamichiAKB does not follow those rules. LOL!

 

I wish it will just be half ABK and half Hiragana. Though the possibility of top 3rd gens be included is high. I still hope that's not the case.
And yeah even if it's Hiragana, Hirate should still center this unit.

 

Do you guys think we're gonna get a third 46 group this year? At least an announcement?

NMB was announced when SKE was at its 3rd single and debuted when SKE was at its 5th single.

Keya is at 6th now and 46 groups are arguably more successful than 48 (less girls with more sales). I can see Aki-P announcing an audition or something later this year for another 46 group

 

^Isn't that what Hiragana is for? They are the de facto third sakamichi group...

 

Are they?

I just see them as under girls who won't ever be in the A side

 

I will wait for their album. If oricon list Hiragana as keyaki 46 then they arent Sakamichi branch.

 

Sister group of a sister group. In short, Under girls
Just in case there's another 46 group, I wonder what image they'll portray.

 

There will be, just a matter of time. Aki P annual home remodeling ain't gonna pay itself

 

i read the news that it's for male and female. what does aki-p thinking about?

 

Excuse me but WHAT IN THE FECKING HECK??

 

Kokkyo no Nai Jidai from ANN (in 51st single Type E)

46 lineup:

Nogi46 : Asuka, Miona, Yoda, Kubo, Mizuki, Momoko
Keyaki46 : Neru, Sugai, Risa, Yuipon, Zuumin and Katoshi

48 lineup

Quite a good song. Nothing special, but not disappointing. Probably the PV will save it.

 

Lyrics from the snippet

Spoiler: Borderless Era

Spoiler: kanji

僕の声は聞こえるか
風の音で消されたのか
ずっと叫び続ければ
届くと信じていたい

お互いが風に遮られて
存在見えなくても

僕たちは同じ時代を生きてるんだ
国境なんて意味を持たない
たった一つのあの太陽の下
どこも光は平等だよ

悲しいことも嬉しいこともあるだろう
それでも止まらず世界は回る
もうすぐ夜明けだ誰かの声がする
生きてさえいれば仲間じゃないか

Spoiler: romaji

Boku no koe wa kikoeru ka
Kaze no oto de kesareta no ka
Zutto sakebi tsudzukereba
Todoku to shinjite itai

Otagai ga kaze ni saegirarete
Sonzai mienakute mo

Bokutachi wa onaji jidai wo iki teru nda
Kokkyō nante imi wo motanai
Tatta hitotsu no ano taiyō no shita
Dokomo hikari wa byōdō da yo

Kanashī koto mo ureshī koto mo arudarou
Soredemo tomarazu sekai wa mawaru
Mō sugu yoake da dareka no koe ga suru
Ikite sae ireba nakama janai ka

Spoiler: translation

Can my voice be heard?
Was it erased by the sound of the wind?
If I keep on shouting
I want to believe that it will arrive

Mutually intercepted by the wind
Even if we can't see its existence

We are living in the same era
Things like borders have no meaning
Merely under that one sun
Its light is equal everywhere

There will be sad things and happy things
Still the world won't stop revolving
It will be dawn soon, someone make some voice
As long as we live, aren't we comrades?
