Minegishi Minami (Miichan) / 1st Generation

The song of the MV featuring Miichan will be the theme song for Nippon's Television "Refreshing" morning show for July
This means they will be showing the MV featuring Miichan for a full month

small excerpt from a fanclub post

So the director was her assistant director for Shukipi and Weekend Citron.
btw Shukipi has 5.2 million views on YouTube ...5.2

Btw, I guess that short bit in the making off video of Weekend Citron where Miichan does a light check must have put a idea in ZUMI's head


ow, Miichan an interview about the MV
https://entameclip.com/news/316362/

Miichan stole my line, sort off, I wrote this in the group chat yesterday

so I'll deceive myself into thinking she read it and liked it
(I made it stand out by posting in English as I didn't trust an auto translation, but an other fan translated it)

there will be an article next week on 'Natalie.mu' with Maharajan and Miichan.

 

Hmm, stories disappear ... (which makes them kinda annoying)
here's the screenshot, I guess Naachan will never start using Miichan


Miichan tweeted

I guess Miichan will always think of AKB as us.

 

btw, this is the translation of the tekst

(I added some vowels to mimic what Naachan did)

I guess Naachan's concert coincided with IKONOIJOY's concert, otherwise Miichan would have attended that concert as well

 

Shuffle Island season 2 starts today

Also Miichan complained (to herself) about always loosing umbrellas/parasols
She bought a new parasol and hopes she remembers to bring it home this evening

It's extremely hot in Japan right now, using a parasol is a very sensible precaution
in a fanclub post the Miichan's manager mentioned that ZUMI, the director of the MV, showed signs of heatstroke, a salt-lemon tablet fixed that.
Remember, when you sweat you not only loose water, you also loose salt, your nervous system runs on salt, so make sure to replenish the salt as well.


Modelpress article about Shuffle Island with interviews with the hosts (including Miichan)
https://mdpr.jp/news/detail/3202650

I guess after show talk of Shuffle Island as you hear staff

if the video does not show watch the video here

Miichan is so relaxed, just having fun

if the video does not show watch the video here

having the ability to make comedians laugh is such a huge asset

 

As announced earlier, interview with Maharajan and Miichan on Natalie.mu

This M&S tweet has a video of the photoshoot for the article

https://twitter.com/ms_staff/status/1544665013084127234

Those slippers! .... they may be even worse as the one she wore after the gradcon

The Album went for sale at Tower Records .... and look Miichan is there (well, in a way)


Maharajan tweeted

Looking at M&S's video I think Maharajan isn't exaggerating, at first he's kinda reserved, but then het joins in in the shenanigans, spurred on by the photographer
(ok, that's about the photoshoot, but he comes over as kinda reserved and Miichan is pretty good at getting those kind of people out of their shell)

promoting Nyan-nyan's clothes, as usual

Yunamogion did a tour of the Theatre in their latest YT video
Miichan comes up twice, Mogi mentions Miichan in the BOX Area, her avatar is wearing the costume form Miichan's grad con and some moments later they show Yuirii's and Miichan's 1000 performances plaques



I always wondered where those were ... so to the left of the BOX Area in the Lobby

 

Just a random observation
It's kinda awesome how they captured the essence of Nyan-nyan's and Miichan's friendship in ハステとワステ (Haste to waste).... Miichan goofing around and making Nyan-nyan happy

Yeah, she did the crane from Karate Kid

Miichan ... goofball

I still regret loosing that clip were, during a concert, Nyan-nyan is trying to figure out where she should be next while Miichan keeps distracting her with silly antics (involving a giant fan)
That was prior to haste to waste .... might be in some 'making of'

Miichan visited her hairstylist

Miichan will be the MC of an idol singing competition on August 10
https://popnroll.tv/articles/26933



Watching Sayonara Mouri-san cleared up something I was wondering about ... when Minegishi Team 4 was promoted all members were holding mikes, but when Miichan handed the MC over to Sahhoo Miichan had to go over to her and hand her the Mike (after realizing her mike was off, so Takamina was moving to do that simultaneously)
Well, I learned that during large concerts a lot of members have dummy mikes because there are not enough radio frequencies to have every member have one.
So obviously the senbatsu's mikes are real and Miichan's mike was real as well (she was undergirl, so I'm guessing all their mikes where active as well) The kenkyusei's mikes were all dummy's

 

I'm kinda sure Miichan always had a live mike, she and Sasshii may have done the most MC's of the whole of AKB.
And if Miichan was in an concert MC she often (like Sasshii) acted as the moderator.
I've seen two MC's regarding Nyan-nyan's graduation where selected member talk about their relationship with nyan-nyan.... the thing is, most of them hadn't any note worthy anecdote :/ .... that was kinda weird to be honest (and Miichan as was the moderator she kept her anecdote short)

 

Well, Miichan knows Sayounara Mouri-san is not about her, just like the guys, her job is to make the girls look better.
In a way ever since the reformation of Team 4 she been doing that.

I kinda would like to see some interaction with the 17ki girls, but I'm guessing they are just to overawed by her, she still is a 1st gen, friends with all the AKB48 legends.

She's getting plenty of screen time on other programs, but she's learned how to make others look better as well.


As mentioned before Miichan is the Goodwill Ambassador for @jam Expo 2022
AKB, NMB and STU will perform at the @jam EXPO 2022 Special Day Friday, August 26 and Miichan will be the MC

I've read several articles about that .... and still don't understand what exactly happened
you have

but I have gotten

I'm guessing that's the reason why the other (unnamed) member was crying in the corner, finding out Miichad had her hair the same way.
(because they also wrote the other member fixed her hair in another location)

anyway ... Miichan changed her hair as a result but was crying herself as she did it

Miichan also kinda launched an 'attack' on the level of handshake intimacy Dasu offered, claiming it was 'unnatural'
You just can see how well those two get along, btw, making critical remarks that are also implicitly complements

 

I don't remember exactly, but that sounds right, I pretty sure the limited edition also had a handshake ticket
