Takahashi Minami (Takamina) / 1st Generation

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

@Chobi: Love the new sig you made (what does the text say? Another amazing Takamina quote?). But like others, I absolutely love your current sig because it's the many faces of our Captain in one. That itself is awesome. It's nice to see it wherever you post. haha.
---

Okay, so if some of you have noticed my sig/avy upgrade (like AON did, etc.)...in height of the change, I also took on a small project.

If you remember this::

Well, because I liked the logo so much and I was bored...I gave it a shot. [nerd]

LADIES AND GENTLEMAN OF THE TAKARMY,
I GIVE YOU MY CREATION...!!

Spoiler

I did it last night in the span of ~3 hours; I had to draw a template out for about everything except the lions and crown (which I tweaked with). There was no font that really fit the "48" so I had to make that too...and I used close enough the same colors from the picture. Etc.

Well, I'm rather proud of it to say the least. lol. I think it turned out really nice.
Since I have time in between classes, I'm posting it here right now.

SO WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?

It's our Captain's symbol guys! [rock] DEDICATED TO TAKAMINA!!! [blush]

Feel free to crop it and use it (I'm trying to figure out where to put it in my sig too later, lol).
But if you do take it, just make sure to credit me. Enjoy.

HAIL TAKA!

V Edit: LOL, great timing to see that armband and Taka in action. Thanks for the vid!

Takamina looked exceptionally cool there! [rock] god rockin costume!
And i love how Ami and Komorin there kinda amplifies her leader aura. She looked like a general with her sergeants [rofl] [rock] oh, the armband helps the case as well [cool]

@Japanime
That's a great work you did there [rock]

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

WOOOOOOOWWWWW......... YOU ARE GREAT Japanime THANKS LOT.... thats logo totally ROCK'N [rock] [rock]

by the way,

Spoiler

can i use the logo for banner / also an armband? i'm planning to go to the singapore concert this november so i wanna make something that show Love Akb especially our capt... [nod] [nod]

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

welcome Mereron in our army
wouaw takamina with contact
Japanime_1 : it's super cool [rock] bravo
BTW guys in shukan do you think takamina will make again sakuragi shoot?

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

You're talking about this right?


I remember seeing that in the preview last week and damn, I sure hope she does.
It would be so kickass, just like the first time at the sports festival last year.

Quoting myself.

That also means you can do anything with it. So go ahead. But if super-senbatsu have the time to end up being on the list for the Singapore Concert (Taka, especially included)...if I were you I would SO make a flag of it and wave it around for the Captain and the rest of AKB to see. lol. But then again, considering the picture dimensions...if I were to make a Takamina flag, I'd rather manually paint it for real. [rofl]

Takarmy gotta represent, yo. [cool]

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

yep ohhh it's gonna be epic again sakuragi shoot FTW

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

Thanks! And the text is from the second verse of Itoshisa no Accel It translates to

I thought it went well with those pictures from Takamina's photobook [blush]

And dude.... THAT DESIGN IS AWESOME!!! Can we make real armbands with that on it?! Then we'll really have the Takarmy established! [rock]

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

^ Agreed.. Someone should hook us up for those armbands for real.. Takarmy Sanjou!! [rock] .. Thanks Japanime for the hard work.. It came out really well .. And Chobi for the article translation..

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

^ wooooww...nice congrats maki2589 for your promotion and by the way when u said that i have just relize that i already a back up dancer now so i'll dedicate my promotion to takamina too.... [party] [party]

by the have u seen the takamina in theater version? [nod] [nod]
she is so beautiful, i like her style... and i think her hat is same model as u maki2589

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

^
Ahhh she looks gorgeous..though I'm not particularly digging the beanie as much as the rest of her


auehflasjefnqpuoafl
I had the same idea and tried recreating the armband using photoshop but I epically failed at it, and then I come in here and BAM! IT'S HERE!! And it's so awesome!! AHHHHHHH ~(^O^)~ I wubs you Japanime
Hmmm now I just have to figure out how I want to incorporate it into my Avy/Sig...maybe I'll do something similar to your's Japanime.... hmmm or maybe I'll change mine completely..hmmm...

Urg, the vid is gone, though thanks for posting it up LarcKen, I hope it'll appear up somewhere else so I can watch it. Aamin posted two photos, which I assume were taken around the time of them filming that...


Oh LOL, I didn't realize that I was a backupdancer too LOL! Yaya for us three!

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

^And make that Four Totally missed my 300th mark .. We could all be Taka's backup Dancer together .. And I approve of that picture of her.. And I should do something with that armband design too.. hmm..

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

LOL it's funny how we have such a variety of Super Idols, Lead Vocals, Back-up Dancers, etc. in the Takamina thread... it's like the rankings for the Takarmy are already set

Oh and since I don't believe I have it, does anyone want to be a dear and share with me a HQ mp3 of that End Roll performance with Takamina? I'd love you forever I'm pretty sure I've seen it some where but I don't have the mp3 plus I feel bad that only one line of the chorus is familar to me, I need to listen to it more ^^;

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

@ Chobi : I only have my rip of End roll to share. Hope it HQ enough.

@maki2589 : wow, I love your hat. So cool [rock]

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

Thanks for the warm walcome everyone! [hi]

Japanime omg, that's awesome!! I really want a Taka armband right now~~ I wonder if there's anywhere in my city where I can get one custom made xD
Chobi, thanks for the translation~! I find it kinda rare for something to reach #1 weeks after it's been released, since I'm used to CD sales' exponential drops... is it normal for book sales? Or did people only realize the book's awesomeness now? haha~

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

maki: awesome hat *thumb up*
maybe we need a sign for the takarmy

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

So pretty

THAT IS AWESOME.

*thinking of ways to use it*

I might use it to try and promote AKB at other forums. Or make a sig. Or both.

(while I'm doing that someone make this into an armband or shirts or hats or flags...)

@maki2589 Nice hat!

 

Re: Takahashi Minami / Team A

I figured since people are starting to use it (maybe as a symbol of the Takarmy, decal to add to current sigs, or to promote AKB, etc.) then I might as well share these. lol.

Spoiler

If anyone wanted it cut out, it's ready for use. I WAS using it for a couple hours yesterday, but I love my no3b-kishidan too much. PLUS, some bows for those of you that share our Captain's interest. lol.

---

@maki2589: Nice hat. Represent. [cool]
@htmfan: Like the new sig. One of my many favorite parts of Taka in the PV. Her significance in Beginner is wonderful.

But really, if someone could mass-produce authentic copies of Taka's armband for the rest of us (I'll buy it if I have to), that would be uber gangsta.
