IOM, you...are my hero. Seriously, thank you so much for working so hard to find these Yuko bits. *moved to tears*
^ I appreciate that, and thanks to artszfar as well! It's a pleasure, for me anyway, because I really am interested in what she was doing before AKB48 (and during, of course). Most of the media (if not all of it) is out there, you just need to have nothing better to do with your time (as in my case anyway, lol) and go and find it! Check the Wiki's and things like that! With your ability to read Kanji, you shouldn't have a problem gathering the information. Finding the actual media is the hard bit! I'll bet some Japanese guys have done all this already and all the good Yukoness is stored in some database somewhere! I think I remember stumbling across a Yuko internet ring, or something like that. :roll:
^ A Yuko internet ring?! Wow!! No, seriously...WOW!!! If you can find that ring and show it to us here...you know, I don't even know what's going to happen, but I'm pretty sure it's going to be insane.
Notice: I updated the picture of Yuko on the first post of this thread to reflect the updated profile picture on the official website. (And besides, that was one hell of an old picture to begin with. B-))
Thanks IOM for all. I really think that tou're the best for that (artszfar isn't bad too ). I love the expressions fece of Yuko in your screens.
^ Thanks for the link! I gather from that and other information that it's a series. So what exactly is "getsugol"? I thought it meant "Golden Monday" and it was a theme, and they were showing one-off dramas. Is it show-case for a new series? Either way, hopefully this'll appear on D-Addicts or a good video site, then there's a chance of subs and a chance it won't get lost like some of the others. "Yuko-ring", umm, the ramblings of an over-tired Googler...seriously, I'm sure I saw something like that. If I find anything, I'll let you know.
^ Congrats! (Seriously, I spent like...10 minutes or so in the Yuko gallery looking for the original. )
Thanks, guys! Thanks for the link to that image, gideon. I should have put that there. Can anyone give me some information about these: I think that's a "Seifuku ga jama wo suru" poster in the background in the second picture so I'm guessing it was a promo or something. Where are they from? Do you know where to download the media? Any help will be very much appreciated. Thanks! Edit Figured the logo in the first picture so I removed that reference. Removed a question. Removed fanboy bit. Added all this. Update - already trawled all through the depot (for the first time) and found the that Bennesse commercial, but the link has expired.
Yuko looks lovely in both of those pictures. That's ALL the information you need to know. Seriously, I'm sure you'll find what your looking for soon enough - you've found a hell of a lot of stuff already, so more is bound to come up. B-)
^ LOL She does, yeah! That's why I need the media! I can find stuff, but if I was more observant, it would be a lot easier - updated my first post! Thanks!
Thanks for tis sharing and all informations Yuko is very beautiful, cute and sweet I don't know how it to say but she releases one face very mature but from childish at the same time.
EDIT There are videos listed on http://www.barks.jp/ (Just search for AKB48) There are music videos and interview style promotional videos. The music videos are no longer available, but the promo videos are still there. The promos each feature three girls promoting a single - Aitakatta, Seifuku ga jama wo suru (see the above capture) and Keibetsu shiteita aijou - and last for a couple of minutes. There's another three videos in a section for Chocolove. Again the music videos are unavailable, but you can still watch the promo video. I suspect the second picture I posted came from the music video for Seifuku from that site and it's no longer available from there, so ah well! This is old stuff! Someone must know all this!
