And lastly....

A post from Atsu and Julii together.


On February 1st, it was announced that Itano Tomomi would be graduating from AKB48 this year. Itano’s graduation was announced in AKB48’s documentary film, ‘DOCUMENTARY OF AKB48: NO FLOWER WITHOUT RAIN Shoujo Tachi wa Namida no Ato ni Nani wo Miru?‘. During a stage greeting, Itano herself announced,

”I’m Itano Tomomi from Team K. I made a sudden announcement through this interview, but I, Itano Tomomi, will graduate from AKB48. The interview for this documentary was supposed to be about the members of AKB48, their scandals last year, AKB48 in the future, and the graduation of  Maeda Atsuko, but my feelings towards graduation became stronger. I decided to announce it like this.”

 Itano shared that she had been discussing her graduation with producer Akimoto Yasushi stating, “When I confirmed to Akimoto-sensei that I had expressed my true feelings he told me ‘okay’. It could’ve been cut out during the editing, but I had them use it. Although my time with the fans and members are running out, I would like to enjoy it. Thank you,”
there were fans who cried out, “Don’t quit!” Regarding the timing of the announcement, Itano revealed,
“I actually wanted to wait until our spring concert to announce it, but I expressed my true feelings in the interview.”
She also mentioned that she talked to Maeda Atsuko about it.
“I’m good friends with Atsuko and I have been influenced by her, but I needed to decide on my own path myself. It’s not that I made this decision in a hurry, but I want both of us to do our best.”
Finally, Itano stated, “We haven’t decided on the day yet, but I will announce it once it has been decided. I want to enjoy the time that I have left. I also want to enjoy it as a first generation member.”

On December 30th, the annual music awards show, ”The 54th Kagayaku! Japan Record Awards” was held, and announced that AKB48’s “Manatsu no Sounds good!” has received the grand prize “Japan Record Award.” This is the second consecutive year for AKB48 to receive the award since they won the award with “Flying Get” last year. AKB48 is the first female group to accomplish this.
Takahashi Minami shed tears, and said, “I am truly happy. Last year, we were desperate to grab the award, but his year, we felt like we must win it as the second chapter for AKB48 has begun. I am proud that we were able to get this award when there are so many great artists here.” Watanabe Mayu also commented, “As Maeda-san graduated, we, the ones who are left, need to make AKB….”, she then had to stop right there, as she could not hold herself, but cry. She continued tearfully, “I am very happy. While being proud of this, I would like to continue trying our best. Though we felt some pressure, receiving the award will make us gain confidence, and I hope it will bring another good accomplishment.”

Congratulations AKB! Your creating so many records! Keep up the good work!

Kasai Tomomi graduation, and JKT48

First I would like to say this is a sad time...

Kasai Tomomi, Who I really like, Will be graduating..

Chiyuu appeared alone in front of fans, and first thanked them for being able to make a solo debut with her single “Masaka (= No way!)” on the 26th. She then stated,
“There is one more ‘Masaka’ announcement to make. I, Kasai Tomomi, am graduating from AKB48. I joined AKB48 when I was 14, and have been in the group for 6 and a half years. It made me learn a lot of things. Now that I received a chance for a solo debut, I would like to send songs with my own ability from now on.”
 The details on Kasai’s graduation, including when it would be, will be announced as soon as it’s decided.

Chiyuu... Why :'(

Yuka and Natsuki to graduate T.T

NATSUKI'S GRADUATION REPORT:
Natsuki will be graduating in order to focus on her studies.
Natsuki joined AKB48 at the age of 15 and has been active in the group for 6 and a half years. However, when she looked at the world with a broader view, she thought about herself and realized that there are still many things that she can challenge herself to. At the same time, she felt that there are many things she has to do properly.

“Right now, I want to go to college, study, and graduate. I want to do my best to be recognized as a human being,” she explained.
Natsuki posted a message to her fans, family, staff, and members onto AKB48’s official blog. She wrote,
“The people I’ve met until now and the time we’ve spent together. Those are my treasures, and I think it will become the bread of my future. Thank you so much for the happy times.”
Good bye Ori-K Natsuki...

YUKA'S GRADUATION REPORT:
Right before a report on a weekly magazine, Yuka Stated that she stayed overnight at DA PUMP member ISSA's place.
She wrote on her blog, “I caused trouble by taking blithe action that lead to a misunderstanding by many people, and I have disappointed the fans who have supported me, team members, junior members, staff members, and my family. I thought a lot about what I should do from now on, and in order for me to take the responsibility, though this is quite a sudden announcement, I am withdrawing from AKB48.”

And good bye Ori-K Yuka T.T

AKB48 and Okamura Takashi

AKB48 has formed “OKL48” with comedic duo NINETY-NINE’s Okamura Takashi!

Okamura, dressed up as “OKALEMON“, a popular character from Fuji TV’s popular variety show “Mecha-Mecha Iketeru!“. He will serve as the center and 15 AKB48 members including Oshima Yuko and Watanabe Mayu will also dress up as lemons. OKL48’s original song will be included as a coupling song in AKB48’s upcoming single “Eien Pressure”, which goes on sale on December 5th.

15 members who lost in AKB48’s 3rd Annual Janken Tournament that took place back in September were chosen to be part of the group. They dressed in white tights and wore a mask and skirt to create the unique look of lemons. Member Ichikawa Miori who is known for her catch-phrase “I want to become a fresh lemon.”, was also chosen as a member of OKL48.

 OKL48 will make their first appearance on the December 1st for a 2-hour special episode of the “Mecha-Mecha Iketeru!” (begins at 7 PM.) OKL48’s comical dance is definitely not to be missed.

Iriyama Anna

Yo! Julii here!

Todays Picture of the day is...

SKE48 single and world record!

Hiya~! Julii here!
SKE48 will release a currently untitled new single in January!

This was announced on November 18th during the group’s handshake event for ‘Kiss Datte Hidarikiki‘ at Pacifico Yokohama. As Matsui Rena called out,
“I have an important announcement for everyone!“,
a message saying, “The second chapter of SKE48 will start“, was projected onto the monitor.
The opening of SKE48’s official theater on December 9th was announced once again.
Members were not imformed about this so they were all quite surprised.

Additionally, the music video for SKE48’s new song, “Tsuyogari Tokei“, was revealed during the event. This song is the coupling track to the Type A edition of AKB48’s upcoming single, “Eien Pressure“, which will be released on December 5th. In the music video, Kitahara Rie, who belongs in both AKB48 and SKE48 will make an appearance.

PARTICIPATING MEMBERS FOR TSUYOGARI TOKEI:
TEAM S: Oya Masana, Kizaki Yuria, Suda Akari, Nakanishi Yuuka, Matsui Jurina, Matsui Rena, Yagami Kumi
TEAM KII: Ishida Anna, Ogiso Shiori, Takayanagi Akane, Hata Sawako, Furukawa Airi, Mukaida Manatsu, Yakata Miki
TEAM E: Kimoto Kanon
AKB48: Kitahara Rie

Also, SKE48 set Guinness World Records with their first album!
On November 19th, an awarding ceremony was held in Tokyo, where the girls of SKE48 received their certificate. In astonishment, Matsui Jurina commented,
“Being active in SKE48, I never thought that we would be certified by Guinness, I want to rejoice together with our fans.”

The album comes with a total of 63 music videos for each member. When the news first broke through to the girls during their album release event, they expressed their surprise and joy with shouts of “Wow” and “Yay“. Matsui Rena said excitedly, “We’re going to be in that Guinness Book!?“, and expressed her wish of displaying the certificate in SKE48’s official theater (opens on December 9th).
 Now in their 5th year, Jurina was deeply moved at the growth of the group.
“I never thought that we would have 63 members in the first place,” This year, there are rumors going around that the girls will make their first independent appearance on the ‘Kohaku Uta Gassen‘.
  ”If we could participate, that alone would make me happy. If every member of SKE48 could participate in the Kohaku, I want to share it like the Guinness World Records.”

Among the 48 groups, AKB48 has been certified as the “pop group with the most amount of members”. Takayanagi Akane proudly stated,
“For ours, the fact that each and every one of our works have been put into one has been certified. The directors made them with affection for the members, so we’re winning with love.”


Congratulations SKE! Keep up the good work and do your best!
___________________________________

Lastly a message from Atsu and I. Next week on November 28th we will start something new!

We will start taking song requests from you all. Choose your favorite song of AKB48, SKE, SDN, NMB, HKT, Nogizaka46 and we will post them on the blog. Since youtube continuously deletes songs from AKB48, we will be kind and find the MP3 to that song and make a small video for you guys. We believe this is good way for people who are just getting into the 48 groups to learn some of their songs. If we do not get comments by the 28th we will just pick our own songs... So start commenting! You can comment on the facebook page, youtube, and the blog!

Also Takajo Aki and Nakagawa Haruka who transferred to JKT48 this month stated

Mitsumune Kaoru and AKB documentary, Miyazawa Sae Send off

First off Mitsumune Kaoru will be withdrawing from AKB48.

In the blog post titled “From Mitsumune, To My Fans”, Kaoru explained,
“My physical condition has not been good for a while and it has become difficult for me to stand in front of everyone in perfect condition. This has definitely caused problems for those around me and also created a huge personal burden, so I have sent in a notice about my withdrawal.”

After Kaoru’s absence from AKB48’s August concert at the Tokyo Dome due to her poor physical condition, she made a temporary comeback. However, she did not participate in an event for the movie version of “Shiritsu Bakaleya Koukou” earlier this month due to her poor physical condition. On November 1, she was originally scheduled to join Team K.

Poor Kaoru... I was just beginning to like her too :(
____________________________________________

The 3rd AKB48 film [Documentary of AKB48: No Flower Without Rain] has been announced and will start screening in cinemas in Japan from February 1st, 2013.

The film will be directed by Takahashi Eiki, who directed last year's [Documentary of AKB48: Show Must Go On], but not the 2011 film [Documentary of AKB48: To Be Continued].

Similar to the previous film, this documentary will take a look at the biggest events that have occurred to AKB48 throughout 2012, including the graduation of Maeda Atsuko, and the momentous concerts at Tokyo Dome. The film will mostly feature interviews and behind-the-scenes footage, and is even said to touch on the topic of "forbidden love" for idols.

YES! Can't wait!
________________________________________

On October 24th, AKB48 held a send-off event for member Miyazawa Sae, who will be transferring to SNH48 in Shanghai, China next month.

In a tearful voice, Oshima Yuko expressed, “I’m very thankful that we met. You are a dear friend. Although we’ll be in different places, let’s chase our dreams and catch them together.” In response, Miyazawa was moved to tears and said, “In Shanghai, I hope to do the things I wasn’t able to do in Japan little by little.”

The send-off party was held during “Team K 6th ‘RESET’ Senshuraku Kouen“, Team K’s final performance before their team shuffle goes into effect on November 1st. Miyazawa revealed, “I’m honestly frightened that the things I thought were natural will disappear one by one. The ones who made Team K such a wonderful team are those who have supported us. On behalf of everybody, thank you very much.”

Some members were already in tears after singing 4 songs back-to-back during the opening. Oshima declared, “I will apologize now. Today, I will not pay attention to anybody, but will enjoy my time with Team K to the fullest. I hope to make the new Team K an even better team. I won’t lose!”
________________________________________

Also, Regarding pictures of the week, I have put them off for now. As you can see I haven't posted as much due to tough school studies so I can not take my time to do pictures of the week. However, I do want to retry when the New teams go into effect. I will then restart again with Team A. I also want to retry posting pictures of the day once again. One of my friends in school gave me the idea of posting one video of the ***48 groups once a month. The way I will set this up is by posting a status on the blogs official facebook page asking which AKB video should be posted. Thank you for your patience in our absence. Tomorrow we are going to make an announcement regarding our blog so please wait up for it.

All current AKB48 stages to finish in October :D

It was announced at the handshake event today in Iwate prefecture that all four of AKB48's current stages will end this month. The senshuuraku of each of the four stages are:

Team A - [Mokugekisha] - 29th October    
Team K - [RESET] - 24th October
Team B - [Theater no Megami] - 22nd October
Team 4 - [Boku no Taiyou] - 25th October

 From 1st November 2012, the New Teams announced during the Tokyo Dome Team Shuffle will perform [Waiting Stages]. These will consist of a selection of existing AKB48 songs. These Waiting Stages will continue until new stages are ready for the new teams. Only 16 members from each of the three new teams will participate in each performance. With these members rotating from show to show.

YES! Finally something new! This is just a meaning that AKB48 will have new stages very soon (besides Waiting Stages)! I can't wait to see Chiyuu  in Team A ♥_♥ And of course the lovely Takamina and Sayaka! sorry...fangirl moment...
