    I totally agree. Sorry if I'm comparing, she and Ayane are always paired but the difference is you don't get much from Ktk. Same emotionless look in every performance. You'd be lucky to see a glimpse of her smiling. But Ayane knows how to deliver a performance. Depending on the song, she will put a happy, smiling face or a focused, serious look. I think that's just how Ktk is, I don't think it will change much.
    Regarding w'center, the idea I have in mind is not just about promoting a certain member, it's entrusting your brand to that member who will then be the one to promote/introduce the group, the single, the song to the media, to the fans. I'm also taking the word 'center' literally. You're the the star of the that particular single, you're the highlight of the MV, you take the lead in performances. When interviewed, you're the one to speak on behalf of the whole group.

    this is just my personal opinion and sorry if make fans ktk disappointed even angry. I think to be a center not just beautiful is necessary but a strong aura to take that position. I'm not very clear about the criteria to be a good center like what. but that's all there is not in self ktk. if imposing ktk into the center it would be the same as yukirin when it became the center in green flash as if all the members became the center for herself. ktk must be able to manage her expression and personality.

    hmmm
    now let forget about Center needs to be like this or like that...
    if they decide to try a new kind of CENTER, they will...
    there is so many example of this kind of TRY and ERROR or TRY and SUCCESS...

    so i guess.
    whoever will get center position this time, i hope it will be a new center... :)

    Guess i’m a little bit old school maybe about this ,

    but i always feel the center should be the main focus for a single , someone who’ll lead the group when performing that song and its a special position.

    When it comes to focus , leader , it should be 1 and not 2.

    Sometimes WCenter were not a problem , but after hattrick WCenter in full year , i hope they’re not going into this for quite some time.

    It’s probably the same reason why i prefer old times 16-18 senbatsu rather than rn 20++ senbatsu , because more = less special in my pov.

    But at the end its only preference for each person :chuffed:

    To me it's not about being a leader or whatnot... But having a W-Center is kind of counter-productive.

    The Center is supposed to shine brighter than her surroundings. Having two of them creates dissonance. Influencer so far is tue only W-Center song which concept I like.

    Sometimes even on songs with solo center, the MV doesn't do justice to the center. Like in Hashire Bicycle, or Hadashi de Summer IMO.

    I do agree with Hashire Bicycle, in that by watching the video, you'd have no idea that Ikoma was center until maybe the very end scene.

    As for Hadashi de Summer, I felt that Asuka was very prominently shown as the center, although a lot of times it also included Nishino and Maiya by her side as support. If anything, Ikuta probably had the 2nd most screen time after Asuka, followed by Nishino.

    As for Sayonara no Imi, I've heard about the controversy. Yes, Nishino had more screen time. However, I heard that the reason was that Nanamin got sick, so couldn't film as much, and the director had to change the script around.

    However, if fans' argument is that Nishino tends to get special treatment and is pushed in a lot of videos, then I wouldn't disagree with that assessment. Management has been trying to push her as the ace for a long time now, and she does have a large fan base. Is it fair? Probably not. However, more or less, the other members seem to take it well, at least publicly (or maybe not, when certain members claim Asuka is the ace...)

    Haha if we're talking about song MV that doesn't do justice to the center, you can't not mention Namida ga Mada Kanashimi wa Datta Koro.

    As @kanjo mentioned on his (her?) Poll, chances are Chiharu and Iori will still participate in 21st single.
    Do you guys think management will give them senbatsu position?

    Have management ever rewarded a graduating under with senbatsu position? If not, then I highly doubt that.

    There is a chance, but I don't think it's a very good chance. Himetan did it but she was in senbatsu a lot.

    Well... both of them had been in Senbatsu before, so it's still a chance too

    A new coupling song "Sora Tobira" is a theme song for "The Seven Deadly Sins (Nanatsu no Taizai)"

    Perhaps, Umechan gonna take an important role in this song. I guess she will be the centre.
    Take this info with a grain of salt.

    To me center doesn't matter that much, as long as the song is good, it's ok whoever they choose.

    WCenter works really well on some songs, e.g. Kikkake and Influencer. Didn't think it was necessary on Ima Hana and Nigemizu though.

    The Reff. sounds very anime-ish, but that beat is not usual for Nogi. Looking forward to hear the full version.
