    [Copy and paste from General AKB]

    It literally sounds like a joke. MUM48? What? Mom48? Will it be a group full of mums?

    Jokes aside, India is the least expected country imo. It’s not really stereotype and no offense to anyone living in India but although India is no doubt large in population, isn’t the country quite poor and behind on everything? Except for bigger cities, is the music going to travel to smaller cities?

    But since AKB is planning to go out to South Asia, I guess India would be the most logical choice.

    By the way, to anyone talking about NYC48 whatever, the group is always named after the country’s capital (except SNH) so it would be more like Washington DC probably unless they see better values in NYC48 instead of something like WashingtonDC48

    I doubt this is the case in this situation. Nobody knows about female Idol group up here in India. However K-Pop & Anime are becoming popular . One thing I can assure it will create quite a controversy among the Orthodox people of India.

    Honestly, at this point, Aki-P might as well just reveal all his plans because I doubt anything could surprise anyone more than this.

    Here's Mum guys:

    if the video does not show watch the video here

    I'd suggest Morocco. Safe from conflict & don't adopt strick sharia law, many women don't wear hijab there.

    Considering India's population (1.32 billion) even if a small percentage of so many people becomes interested in the group, it could have a huge fanbase.
    Very unexpected move, but with lots of promise, I think...

    lol this is so random :hehe: I think India is one of the last places I would have expected.
    Well, I'm gonna trust Aki-P's business sense on this one though I personally can't really see this group becoming popular at all, but, as people before me already wrote, with that many Indians it might somehow work out in the end.
    (Also, the abbreviation is kinda ridiculous:awesome:)

    My first thought about the name was the same. It just sounds like Mum/Mom. I'm sure they could have thought of something better ^^; Also curious about the teams. Two Team Ms in the same group will be confusing, especially if new fans aren't familiar with the concept of how AKB and sister groups work. Maybe they'll handle it differently?

    My bad, the fanclub videos weren't on the official channel. I was talking about this:

    if the video does not show watch the video here
    (there are quite a few Indians here like at 0:45 and 1:15)

    And these are some covers by fanclubs:

    www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dJpygW6Uh8
    www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpsvUFOdyWQ

    P.S. I hope they change the name to something that sounds less stupid.
