Also, centers seem to be based on ranking. Of the members performing, Yukirin ranked the highest so she gets the solo.
Naachan needed to do the boy part in Ayamachi At first I was like "whaaaat?! NO!" but then I was like well okay this is something Yukirin doesn't normally do and it's interesting. And then Naachan and Yui's duet was beautiful and I was really happy they did it like that. After all, Naachan has already performed her solo a couple times. I loved the stage. Seriously loved it. (except KBmB, what a wasted song slot)
Yikes at Annin performing my least favourite song Tanjoubi Tango? all of them? Is this like Cinderella wa Damasarenai where there are only three-five of them singing and the rest are just clapping their hands?
It's actually a really nice song/performance. And Naachan is center ;D It is kind of like CwD but I like that one too.
Yes on all counts haha. That Naachan + Yuihan duet was sooo good. And I have a new appreciation for Tanjoubi TANGO and Ano hi no jibun now. Kind of wish they'd had a slightly more, ah, love-triangley song for Tomu, Mogi, and Saho though. And Mion. Group song centers: M01. Get you! (Kashiwagi Yuki & Muto Tomu) M02. Aokusai Rock (Kojima Mako) M03. Runner's High (Yokoyama Yui) M04. Kuchibiru ni Be My Baby (Minegishi Minami) M10. Dare ga Watashi wo Nakaseta? (Kashiwagi Yuki & Yokoyama Yui) M11. Dakara Kimi ga Suki na no ka (Komiyama Haruka) M12. LOVE TRIP (Kashiwagi Yuki) M13. Ano Hi no Jibun (Kashiwagi Yuki & Muto Tomu) EN1. Tanjoubi TANGO (Okada Nana) EN2. Kimi wa Melody (Iriyama Anna) EN3. Negaigoto wo Mochigasure (Okada Nana & Mukaichi Mion) For the unit songs yeah, basically. I mean, Tomu outranked both Naachan and Yuihan, so by that logic... but singing is not exactly her strong point and that duet needed powerful voices. For centers of the group songs there was a bit more favoritism involved. ModelPress article Spoiler: photos Due to image limit, 19 photos were removed.

ooohh so Tanjoubi Tango 16nin ver. Oh wow at Tanjoubi Tango dress used for NegaMochi, the song placement really fits. The stage looks pretty solid aside from that Baguette (lol I have a personal vendetta with that song). Yui and Naachan Ayamachi sounds nice. Naachan's voice in the background during Coin Toss Oh yeah, it's actually one of my favourite song from Thumbnail. It's just that song originally only has three people, I thought it was going to be a unit, or like CwD where not all of them sang the song. I really appreciate the effort of recreating that dress for 16 people tho, Shinobu must have had quite an overtime. Naachan centering this kind of song was a bit surprising tbh
I'm glad I've finally seen a performance of Aokusai Rock and Baguette (even it's a AKB-only version), two of my favorite songs in the album.
lol fell asleep in the stage XD but got it recorded so all good No one got to sing their their own album song anyway. Besides Yukirin pretty much nailed the song too
^ I liked it, I thought it was great until they started with the close-ups, it looks too weird when it's kinda just the shoulder part lol
Gundam pads lol But I have a feeling I've seen those outfits before Sent from my LG-D852 using Tapatalk
Those are Aokusai Rock outfits. I like them. https://twitter.com/i/videos/tweet/823124864273788929?autoplay=1
So do I, especially now that Kojimako is wearing the pink hat! More stories: http://www.jiji.com/jc/ak?s=news&k=2017051201517 https://netallica.yahoo.co.jp/news/20170512-85978324-dwango https://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/hl?a=20170512-01822367-nksports-ent https://abematimes.com/posts/2376476
Watched a video of the whole stage performance yesterday. It was really entertaining to me since they are all new songs which have rarely been performed live so far. And Yukirin's solo of Coin Toss was really good. I think Naachan said during the interview portion that she was happy that Yukirin sung it and that she would aim not to lose to Yukirin in the performance of that song? I'm just guessing here because I never studied Japanese before, but it sounded to me that it was roughly like this. Ayamachi was great too and I really liked Ao Kusai Rock centered by Kojimako too.
Since someone cut it out, here's Yukirin's performance of Coin Toss https://www.bilibili.com/video/av10509422/?from=search&seid=12538240844199555522
