Miyuu was so adorable at the 17th gen debut show! And even though she wasn't center she still had great placement in Oogoe Diamond. Her face is so mature and beautiful but when she smiles she looks like a little kid, it's so cute. I think she might have some non-Japanese blood, but I also thought that she was 14 or 15 years old so I could be wrong. She's definitely not fluent in English, anyways. I took a lot of screen grabs of her, but she holds the microphone so close that was hiding her face most of the time. My favourite moment of the show was when Erichan said something which caught Miyuu by surprise, and she did this big laugh. In the MC segment where they were answering questions before the buzzer went off, I think she said that the first time she had been to Tokyo was for the AKB48 auditions? I can't even imagine how intimidating that must have been, and it shows a lot of dedication to AKB48 that she left her hometown and moved to Tokyo for this chance.
Her former school just help to promote her. https://www.iaijoshi-h.ed.jp/【akb48 第17期生】遺愛女子高等学校卒業の『水島美/
I thought she looked like someone as soon as I saw her and half thought she might have appeared in a survival show or something. Googled a bit and no dice. Then I figured it out; she looks a bit like GP999's Huang Xing Qiao I think I'll be keeping an eye on her
If anyone introduces her as Nogizaka46 5th gen member I would believe without any doubt. Beautiful girl and that confident on stage is full of potential. I'm looking forward to her.
Miyuu looked amazing at the TGC show! Apparently in addition to Oogoe Diamond they also performed Seventeen but I haven't been able to find any video of that.
The first AKB48 Net Shop photo cards with the 17th gen members have gone up for preorder. Obviously, Miyuu's photos are absolutely gorgeous. I sorely miss AKB48's Buyee service for international fans, I'd love to pick these up. I wonder if FromJapan would be able to ship these overseas?
I use a company called Dejapan to buy photosets but I'm sure other buying services would do it too. Feb 22 update. I now use Buyee, they introduced a new service that works and they're cheaper.
