APPENDIX & NOTES :
(from their Ameblos, Twitters & GREE-Nontty's)

1. THE TWO MISSING IN ACTION

Spoiler

1300 hrs ; 2nd & 3rd GEN. version
miray～SHOGUN 3rd GEN.
she is RONIN status
AVEX released her immediately after graduation & she is still without an agency
That is why she was also a NO-SHOW for both the 2012 Revival Concert [Minogashita Kimitachi～e 2] & 2013 Request Hour

1900 hrs ; 1st GEN. version
Sayanee
she treasures her privacy & does not avail any social networking sites for fanservice
what i know of her is what she choose to reveal through her pal Marinaru
thus far i drew a blank for her absence

2.WHY Marinaru is only present as MC

Spoiler

in the hectic weeks & punishing schedule leading to their graduation
Marinaru suffered a protruding heel bone spur & she only just managed to survive the Senshuurakus & NHK hall with massive injections of painkillers
Indeed, at last year's the 2012 Revival Concert Series [Minogashita Kimitachi～e 2] on May 17th
she could not last the evening & had to retire early in a wheelchair
To date, she has yet to undergo major surgical intervention for restoration of full mobility

3. WHATEVER HAPPEN TO Aki-P's Promise ?

Spoiler

Aki-P's consolation to SDN last year,
backstage debriefing at NHK all

i am refering to what appears to be no major(there maybe just a few inserts) showcase
for those members who have plenty of their own original songs either through releases, LIVEs or both(solos/collaborations/unit)
NOT quite living up to the part of the pact & convenant struck with SDN that says

the members are already at the peak of their craft with the stage

AS apparent if you have been perusing the alumnae post graduation thread
almost all of the members are very active day in day out
indeed even on Mar 31st Sun, a few still have their solo activities on
not to mention the immediate few days before

AS of now
EVERY late night ticking over to the early wee hours of the morning after their work days come to an end
the members return home to practise the songs & choreography individually on their own
BEARING WITH THESE IN MIND
THERE IS SIMPLY INSUFFICIENT TIME TO INCORPORATE SUBSTANTIAL NEW ELEMENTS
HOW SPECIAL A PERFORMANCE COULD IT BE ?

OTHER THAN THOSE LUCKY ENOUGH TO STRIKE GOLD IN THE THEATER RESERVATIONS' SUBMISSIONS
THE CONSOLATION IS THE PROBABLE RELEASE OF THE DVD BOX-SET FOR THESE MUCH LIKE NHK [NEXT ENCORE] LAST YEAR
AND
A MERE 6/7 WEEKS AFTER THE MAR 31st REUNION, SDN WILL LIKELY BE RECALLED IN MID-MAY, TASKED WITH TROTTING OUT [SDN1～Yuuwaku no Garter] AGAIN IN THIS YEAR'S 2013 Revival Concert Series[Minogashita Kimitachi～e 3] LIKE LAST YEAR

 

Re: SDN48 Alumnae REUNION [Yuuwaku no Garter～SP] Double Conc

Cast WIthdrawal in the 1900 hrs 1st Gen. performance

Tezuka Machiko - 1st Gen.

Hamachi will not be in the evening line-up due to illness

She must be really down & out as her Ameblo & Twitter have not been updated since Easter Friday Mar 29th

EDIT
She was present the whole of yesterday's Mar30 Sat practise
at fellow 1st Gen. Hiromin's very own Yoyogi Park Dance Studio with the rest of SDN
&
she twittered replying to Masamin suffering from an excruciating sore throat

Announcement by the theater manager:

Any news on how this went ?

 

ちゅーさん！ご婚約おめでとうございます

ChuChu(Chen-Qu) announced her impending wedding in the evening 1st Gen. performance

http://ameblo.jp/chen-chan/entry-11502167889.html

Spoiler

ChuChu later in her Ameblo gave more details;

They have been dating for 3 &-half-years
At the end of last year the soon-to-be groom proposed
that makes it almost the SAME TIME as Meetan
&
she will continue with show-biz while starting her own family just like Meetan

ANOTHER TIES THE KNOT
that leaves just 37 plus another 5 more early grads (Kanayan just retired back to her hometown Hiroshima, Bambi & Yukapo already married) still up for grabs

Spoiler

i had better hustle

I just got into watching 2nd+3rd Gens performance and I can already say it feels like these ladies have not missed a step as time has passed. It's really touching to see this much dedication from a collective that's technically inactive (2 members missing isn't bad at all). I'm really big on girl groups but I've never seen one hold it together this tight. Makes me proud that I've kept my SDN flag hoisted high through all that''s happened.

 

^Still can't believe only two members were missing! Sometimes I think SDN had the strongest bonds between all members
I wish Aki-P would make them a group again.
Kinda let down by the set list, I was hoping for more songs to be honest especially some of the ones the members have made since disbanding.

 

I wish even though they "graduated"/"withdrew", if they invited the members who left before hand for their mass graduation. I would of loved to see the original I'm Sure, or 2nd Gen Sakura in action. Other than that [rock] more anniversary concerts!!!

I'm sad they didn't perform Futsuu no anata, even if it was censored or not. [flip]

MAY THERE BE MORE WEDDING BELLS CHIMES ON THAT SATURDAY's NIGHT PARTY

 

^Thats exciting! I can't wait to watch! Its nice we get these kind of reunion concerts, I'd love a new stage or single though ahah

 

↑↑

This post of mine it's kinda off-topic here but I want to say that it give me a quite pleasant feeling to know about those performances in the revival, I mean they're still enable and available the girls themselves to hang out and performing the "Yuuwaku" stage, even after long time since the whole group of girls were 'graduated' and SDN was ended.

And I will going to not say more things now, just enjoying the good news. [rock]

 

Just love this thread because I am also a adventures person & love the things that you mention in your post.
