now that Yukirin is graduated, what do you guys see will happen her future?. i personally see her being a singer and being a producer/collaborator of an idol group. she got all the experiences and the passion for it.
There was a time when saeYuki coupling was actively shipped in fanfics. Hence Sae reference to running off to get married. Tbh tho i was surprised by this performance too I expected saeki mika. In fact I think i audio hallucinated a mika call from the crowd In other OG news, i was looking forward to hearing Haachan’s vocals but on my stream her audio cut out and helium Hirajima took over the channel
i almost never comment on anything anymore, but i have watched this concert, most of it, and my biggest surprise is (no offense or trolling) that the current members all have more or less the same haircut. like the way the fringe is done. idk. very neatly. If you are not used to it, like me, maybe you do not notice anymore. The reference to SaeYuki was obviously my highlight, it was a superhyped ship back then. Tumblr was filled to the brim with SaeYuki. Maybe the one ship with the least "realness"-factor to it, but they still are in contact. Like no BFFs, but buddies. Enkyori Poster would have been even better if they would have gotten the other three not-so-known members on stage, too. Enkyori Poster was a thing among otaku. i remember how the first admin of this forum basically wrote an essay about the essence of enkyori poster. But who knows what Nito Moeno is doing these days. And i am glad that Haachan got the spot she deserved. Cant believe its 12 years ago.

They are close during the later years though, they went out eating together a lot, which I also believe is for seniority reason. And the song choice for introducing Yuihan is a suitable one imo, so she also got to scream "AKB".
Yukirin is definitely one of the most talented all-rounders in 48G. I guess many has probably mentioned this but... There is something special with the way she talks (in a good way). It flows naturally, she doesn't mind calling out akward moments (hard to explain but she does not pretend if the atmosphere is getting awkward). It feels like talking to a real friend. I initially watched her reactions to bad comments from instagram. and I am hooked on her videos. It is a must watch. I cant stop laughing even till now LOL. I have watched many ex graduates' youtube (even those who I like) but very few comes close to her. There is no glimpse of azatoi. Her youtube videos are really calming in a sense. Now combined with her love of idols, she can build a platform for other idols. and she did interview =LOVE. I also particularly like her videos on dissecting "akb traditions" And her personal take on it. Like handshake, ssk. I guess just like ishika Rika did for a certain period (or in a way Miichan?) she can be a host for akb show. (Her commentaries on out of 48 were insightful despite the subpar quality of OO48 in general) Honestly she can make youtube videos rather than waiting for TV channels.. The viewership is probably much more effective. Of course she can pursue the route of being a female soloist. It is not easy, but i don't think it is impossible. AS paradoxical it is , the demand of female soloist is a tad bit higher than it is in 2014s
