NMB48 Kenkyuusei Sasaki Nanami to Graduate

As announced on June 16, NMB48 3rd Generation Kenkyuusei Sasaki Nanami will be graduating from the group. The graduation date has not been announced yet.

The reason given is poor physical health, it seems she has problems with her spine that hinder her activities in NMB48.

Sasaki Nanami is the second 3rd Generation member to graduate after Ishikawa Kokoro left in April to focus on her studies.


I hope Nanami wil get well soon. I think it is the right decision not to risk her health. But the high number of NMB48 Kenkyuusei who have graduated so far still bothers me.

NMB48 Okita Ayaka promoted to Team M + 5th Single and tour announced

NMB48 finished its Osaka prefecture tour Osaka Juuban Shoubu on May 31st, and the final day brought several announcements with it.

First of all, Kenkyuusei Okita Ayaka was promoted to Team M. She took the spot of Kodakari Yuuka who graduated in April due to health problems. Okita Ayaka was one of the two 1st Generation Kenkyuusei left who neither made Team N nor M. Now Koyanagi Arisa is the only 1st Generation Kenkyuusei left.

Additionally, it was announced that NMB48's 5th single will be released on August 8. The single will come in the usual 4 types: A, B, C and Theater Version. No other details are out yet.

Apart from that another NMB48 tour was announced. After the Osaka Prefecture Tour, the group will now tour the whole Kinki/Kansai region with one concert in every prefecture of the region. The temporary title for the tour is Kinki Juuoumujin Tour (近畿縦横無尽ツアー, roughly translated: Kinki do as one please Tour).

The dates are:
7/18 Shiga Prefecture, Otsu Shimin Kaikan
7/27 Kyoto Prefecture, Uji City Culture Center
8/1 Nara Prefecture, Nara Centennial Hall
8/8 Wakayama Prefecture, Wakayama Municipal Auditorium
8/15 Hyogo Prefecture, Kobe International House International Hall
8/21 Osaka Prefecture, Orix Theater

Congratulations to Aapon! I am so happy she was finally promoted!

AKB48 Kenkyuusei Mitsumune Kaoru to Star in a Movie [Joshi Camera]

AKB48's 13th gen Kenkyuusei Mitsumune Kaoru will be starring in a new movie Joshi Camera as the lead role. The movie is set to be released in winter.

The plot line revolves around four college students who return back to their hometown and through photos, they realize the importance of family. Kaoru is also currently starring in the J-dorama ATARU and the AKB/JE Dorama, Shiritsu Bakaleya Koukou.


I've come to accept the fact that Kaoru will be pushed a lot, as she has prior experience, hence why the sponsors want someone like her. The article of this movie also said, that she might be the future ace which I think is a bit too much because let's face it, Kaoru is over experienced to be a member of AKB, and she's still a kenkyuusei who has yet to prover herself as a member. The elections are coming up and no doubt Kaoru will rank but which number will she rank in is the question.

NMB48 3rd Generation Kenkyuusei 1st Stage [Aitakatta] Shonichi

NMB48's 3rd Generation Kenkyuusei performed their 1st Stage [Aitakatta] on April 29th for the first time.  [Aitakatta]  was originally performed by Team A in 2006 as their 2nd Stage, and later redone by Team B and Team KII.

SKE48's Imade Mai Announces Her Graduation

At today's SKE48's Kenkyuusei theater performance, 3rd gen KKS Imade Mai announced her graduation. The reason for her announcement was for her wish to study abroad and also because of a leg injury.

She also made a G+ post concerning this:

At today's theater performance,

I, Imade Mai, was allowed to make an announcement about my graduation.

Another time, I will write a detailed post.

For now, I'm sorry.

This is really sad as Mai is the 4th member from SKE to graduate this year. The vacant spot left by Matsushita Yui and Nakamura Yuka as they graduated last year from Team S and Team E respectively still hasn't been filled and now we are losing another one and a kenkyuusei at that. This is all very disheartening.

Applications for Auditions of 14th Generation Kenkyuusei Now Available

According to Togasaki, manager of AKB48, the management is now accepting audition applications for the 14th Generation Kenkyuusei.


The full post is translated below:

Today we will start accepting Kenkyuusei applications for 14th Generation.  Application period ends at the end of the month, on April 30th, 2012.
For details, please see a later post.
Today I had some questions from people who want to leave good impressions at auditions, so I'll answer them here.
1 - What kind of people will make it?
--> There is no clear standard for that.  If we had one, then there wouldn't be members who audition multiple times and finally made the cut.
2 - What if I am not good at singing and dancing?  Will I still be okay?
--> According to Akimoto-san, the original concept of AKB48 is for your "growth to be seen" in the theater performances.  Like Takahashi Minami, who is very small at 148cm, who could not dance in the very beginning and had to stay longer to practice more.Like Maeda Atsuko, who cried and refused to sing the solo parts of "Nagisa no Cherry".AKB48 is looking for people who "are willing to work hard without thinking twice", rather than "talented people".However, there are people who wrote "I admire so-and-so from AKB48 and would love to perform with them on stage", and we don't think "admiring so-and-so" will encourage growth.  Instead we are looking for people who write down "I want to be admired by people".
This is our first audition since Maeda Atsuko, who has been working hard as AKB48's center since December 8th, 2005, announced her graduation.
We're excited to see what kind of applicants will show up.We will do our best to look at every application.Thank you for your continued support.
We will also announce this on AKBINGO! tonight, so please watch that too!

NMB48 Kenkyusei Hara Mizuki to Graduate

Hara Mizuki, a 1st Generation NMB48 Kenkyusei, has announced on April 9 that she will be graduating from the group. The reason for the graduation is that she wants to focus on her studies  preparing for high school entrance exams. A graduation date has yet to be announced.

Just one week before Mizuki, 3rd Generation Kenkyusei Ishikawa Kokoro had announced her graduation too. With those two, five Kenkyusei have left or are about to leave NMB48 since late December last year.


Here is a translation of Mizuki's graduation annoucement.

Original Message

It is sudden, but I have an annoucement to make to you all.
I, Hara Mizuki, will graduate from NMB48.

After entering NMB48 I was allowed to perform in the Dareka no Tame ni Show and the Seishun Girls Show. In Dareka no Tame ni I did Raider and in Seishun Girls I was also allowed to do Ame no Doubutsuen. I was happy but on the other side, I failed Shonichi (first performance day) members, and also wasn't chosen for a team or for Senbatsu, so there were also frustrating feelings.

I became a 3rd year student in Junior High, and a student preparing for entrance exams.

Am I going to continue NMB48 this way?

I was really wavering whether I should do my best at studies now, enter the High School I am aiming for, find a goal for the future, and work towards it, but I decided to graduate from NMB48.

I am really glad I joined NMB48.
That is, all my fans who supported me and the members were nice, I was really happy being together with them, and it was a lot of fun.

Being able to be in NMB48 was really fun. Thank you.

Mizuki is a 1st Generation member, but did not make Team N or Team M. Additionally she has high school exams coming up now, so I can understand her decision and wish her all the best. I just hope the other 1st Generation Kenkyusei left don't follow her way.

NMB48 Kenkyusei Ishikawa Kokoro to Graduate

As announced on April 2, NMB48 3rd Generation Kenkyusei Ishikawa Kokoro will graduate from the group on April 28th. The reason given is the same as for all NMB48 graduations so far: she wants to focus on her studies.

Ishikawa Kokoro is the first 3rd Generation member to graduate. This generation just debuted in February and is currently preparing for their first stage [Aitakatta],  a remake of Team A's 2nd Stage, scheduled to start April 29, the day after Kokoro's graduation.


The 3rd Generation members haven't done much yet, so I can't say much about this news other than that I was interested in Kokoro. Her graduation comes quite fast, so maybe she just realized NMB48 is not what she wants to do. Anyways, all the best to her.

Suzuki Rika Graduates from AKB48

Suzuki Rika, a 12th Generation KKS, graduated from AKB48 on March 31st, 2012. She graduated from AKB48 because she wanted to focus on her studies.

On March 30th, 2012, she posted the following message on Google+:


Suzuki Rika  -  Mar 31, 2012  -  Mobile  -  Public

2012/3/31
I will graduate from AKB48 tomorrow.
This was a monumental decision in my life.

But I don't think this is the wrong choice.
Because the choices everyone else made have not been wrong.
When standing at the crossroads of life, people make different choices and no one knows if it's the right choice.
It would be boring, if I only lived one life - like how a mathematical question can only have one correct answer.

I'm sorry about saying these things.
I just want to think that I have not made the wrong choice.

AKB48 and Johnny's Join Forces for [Shiritsu Baka Rare Koukou] Drama

A new drama titled [Shiritsu Baka Rare Koukou] is set to start airing every week from April 14th on Nihon TV. The drama's cast is an ensemble of Team 4, Kenkyusei and Johnny's Junior members!

This isn't the first time an AKB48 member will be starring next to a Johnny's member but it is the first time that a whole lot of members from both sides starring together. The drama is written by Akimoto Yasushi as well and the plot line revolves around two schools merging together: one of them a yankee school (Johnny's) and the AKB member's school which is sort of a "Bishoujo Oujou-sama school."



The cast of the drama till now is confirmed to comprise of:

AKB48
Shimazaki Haruka
Shimada Haruka
Oba Mina
Nakamura Mariko
Nagao Mariya
Kobayashi Marina

Johnny's Jr
Morimoto Shintaro
Matsumura Hokuto
Kyomoto Taiga
Tanaka Juri
Jesse Lewis
Kochi Yugo


The school has three rules which are quite funny in my opinion. The rules are:

1. Love Relationship Prohibited
2. Exchange of phone numbers and email prohibited
3. Sleep Early, Wake Up Early

This is indeed very exciting because a collaboration with Japan's two most top idol groups is huge deal.  I'm also glad this time its not the top members, but the lower members of AKB getting the drama for themselves. I know, I'm already very excited about this.

Akimoto Yasushi on SDN Graduation and Mitsumune Kaoru

On February 22nd, Akimoto Yasushi spoke on his Google+ page regarding SDN48's graduation on March 31st.

He mentioned that he has received a petition from the fans to retract the graduation of all SDN48 members. However, he cited the lack of an age limit in SDN as a problem. Without one, members can stay in SDN forever and there wouldn't be any graduations.

Translated by emptystring

I received a petition to retract the decision to graduate all SDN members.  I received a huge collection of signatures and I was happy to see them.
I really would like to sympathize.

But the problem is, SDN is unlike AKB, where members can decide for themselves when to graduate.
There is no age limit, so they could conceivably stay in SDN forever.
Because I can't decide who should stay and who should graduate, so I have been considering new careers for all the members.
There is a lot to think about.
Thank you, everyone.

So what do you think about this?

Honestly I don't see why he has to graduate the members. These members really have skill. And I mean real skill. It's a real waste that the 3rd generation members have to graduate so quickly after joining. Especially Tojima Hana and Komatani Hitomi, who took a second chance at being an idol after graduating from AKB on 2008.

If he absolutely has to graduate them, why can't he graduate the members by generation? That will at least let the newew members have more time in the group.


In a later post, he also talked about Mitsumune Kaoru, who has been getting a lot of media time with gravure shoots, commercials and TV shows:

Translated by emptystring

Lately I've often been asked about Kaoru - "Are you pushing her more than usual?"
Since we're on this topic, I'll answer it here once and for all.
Her TV, gravure and commercial appearances were all requests from the other side.
I did not force them.
She is still a Kenkyuusei and it's great that she's already getting so much attention.
Kondo from Shukan Playboy or Settsu from Nikkan Sports have all talked about Kaoru's charm.
I am looking forward to how this will turn out.

At least we now know the reason for all the push. But still, the scale of the pushing is really incredible give that she is still a kenkyuusei.


There is actually a lot more to this post - he made a series of 4 "passionate" posts this morning, mostly talking about potentials and going after one's dreams - full translations of these posts can be found at Bilingual48.

NMB48 3rd Generation Profile Pictures

NMB48's 3rd Generation finally debuted on Saturday and now their profiles are already up on the official website. Overall there are 23 girls, which is quite a lot. Maybe management wants to give us Team BII soon.

It looks like a very cute generation. Judging from the profile pics alone, I am interested in Muro Kanako, Kono Saki and Yabushita Shu. So, who has caught your eye?

The Next Big Push: Mitsumune Kaoru?

Last night, Shinoda Mariko posted the above image on her Google+ and blog. It's a behind-the-scenes shot from one of AKB48's new CMs. In the picture are (right to left) Itano Tomomi, Maeda Atsuko, Shinoda Mariko, Kojima Haruna and 13th generation Kenkyuusei member Mitsumune Kaoru.

Blog Link: http://blog.mariko-shinoda.net/article/248706869.html

The details of the CM are still secret, but it will feature those above 5 members. Also in line from her is a solo gravure shoot and will even be on the cover of the magazine!

Is Mitsumune Kaoru the next Komori Mika or Yokoyama Yui? The wotasphere has been alive since last night regarding this, and the response is mostly positive. I honestly think she already is!

Here's some more information about her:

Mitsumune Kaoru made her debut stage performance at AKB48's Kouhaku Taikou Uta Gassen concert last year, singing Heart Gata Virus together with Team 4's Shimazaki Haruka and Yamauchi Suzuran. Yet she didn't show any signs of nervousness and even knew how to excite the crowd.

Her mixi ranking is 1,811 (as of January 23, credit to YKT), which is already more than half of the girls in AKB48. Already she ranks higher than members like Katayama Haruka, who have been in AKB for more than 5 years.

She also took part in the Kobe Collection in Shanghai last year, after winning the first place in a modeling competition, and has modeled alongside some of Japan's top models like Hasegawa Jun. See video below for more.



So what do you think about her?

I think she has a nice cool beauty character and after seeing her stunning performance in Kouhaku, I am already expecting much from her. She already has a lot of experience in the entertainment industry, so she knows how to handle herself. I have no doubt that she will go far in AKB.

NMB48 Kenkyusei Okada Risako To Graduate

As announced in the theater on January 18th, Okada Risako, a 2nd Generation Kenkyuusei, will graduate from NMB48. The reason is that she wants to focus on her studies.

Risako is the third 2nd Generation Kenkyusei to graduate from NMB48, following Takiyama Akane and Otani Riko, who just recently graduated for the same reasons. This means three 2nd Generation members have left (or are about to leave) the group in the short time of just about one month!

I actually wonder if anything is going on among the 2nd Generation members. Three graduations in such a short time is really unusual, and with the prospect of Team M to be formed soon, I was expecting the 2nd Generation to move forward now.

NMB48 Captain Yamamoto Sayaka made a comment about the graduations too, and she sounds quite devastated to me. Read a translation of her comment below.

Please let me write my true feelings here.
I am sorry if I have made you feel bad.
To be honest, I am perplexed.
Getting to know about the graduation of a member later than the fans is shameful for me as a captain.
This will be the third person and so, even though there is nothing to feel guilty about 'giving priority to school activities', I can't help but feeling insecure wondering 'what is not working in NMB?'.
On the other hand, the 2nd Generation members are even getting used to the graduation of their fellows.
Why...
Stay firm, Sayaka!

NMB48 Kenkyuusei Otani Riko to Graduate

As announced in the NMB48 Theatre, 2nd Generation Kenkyuusei Otani Riko will graduate from NMB48. The reason given is that she wants to focus on her studies. The graduation date has not been announced yet.

Another 2nd Generation member, Takiyama Akane, just graduated from NMB48 a few days ago on December 22 for the same reasons and now we have another NMB48 graduation.

I wonder what is happening with NMB48's 2nd Generation. They aren't featured much and instead of moving forward, the members now start to graduate.

Anyways, I wish Riko all the best for the future.

Otani Riko Graduation Message
translated by Miss Moonlight

I have an important announcement to make.

I, Otani Riko, will graduate from NMB48. I am really sorry to everyone who supported me all the time since our appearance at TCD Hall in June until now. Since the audition, repeatedly I felt conflicts inside me. Every time that happened I remembered that I was chosen among so many applicants and that I was able to meet you all, and thinking ‘Alright, let’s do my best’ I worked hard.

I am a 3rd year junior high school student, so I had a big wall called ‘exam’ in front of me. I thought I could balance it with my activities in NMB48, but going to the senior high school I want to go to is difficult while balancing both activities and I could not completely give up on going to the high school I want to go to.

I was able to make a lot of experiences, like meeting with you all as an NMB48 member or things normal girls cannot experience and things that you just don’t know unless you enter (the group).

The theatre shows as an NMB48 member where I had fun with all of you, the handshake events where I could meet a lot of people, those were a great time. Thank you.

I am also really thankful to the staff who supported NMB48. I think that I was able to come this far thanks to you all and to all the members. Thank you very much.

NMB48 Kenkyuusei Takiyama Akane To Graduate

As announced in the theater on December 10, NMB48 2nd Generation Kenkyuusei Takiyama Akane will graduate from the group. The reason given is that she wants to focus on her studies since her wish is to enter university. Her graduation show date is on December 22nd.

Takiyama Akane is the second NMB48 member to graduate after Mori Ayaka, and the first 2nd Generation member to do so. I was interested in her ever since I saw her in the theater, so this news is a bit sad. But I wish her all the best for her studies.

Takiyama Akane Graduation Message
It's sudden but I have an announcement to make so please listen to it.
Even before joining NMB48 I thought about entering university and studied for it. After joining NMB48, everyday was so much fun and I was allowed to perform in shows so everyday was an enriched experience, and so I thought 'I will do my best as NMB48'.
But when I went to school, the wish 'I want to go to university' became stronger. But I also did not want to quit NMB48, wanting to do both I became really half-hearted. I thought 'the way it is now is unexcusable to the members, staff and the fans who support me' and I was thinking the whole time that I had to make a decision.
I really love the members, the members were always my support, so I did not want to part with them. Also, you all (the fans) supported me with comments or letters, or said things like if you see my smile you can become energetic, so I wanted to do this job the whole time, and that is why I really did not want to quit but I thought it's time for me to make a decision.
Now I want to do my best at studying and achieve the goal of entering university. But because I love this job too, because it was my dream since I was a child, I will return to this stage, this NMB48 theater, at all means, so please support me kindly.
I really think it is selfish, but I love NMB48, I love you all, I love the members. That is why I ask you to please support me from now on too.

SKE48 5th Generation Members 1st Look

13 members from SKE48's 5th generation performed Oogoe Diamond on Day1 and SKE48 on the Day2 of the concert. Originally, 16 members passed the audition. However 3 girls have already left due to reasons unknown.

Check out the girls below! Names are romanized by Everyday48. Do any of them catch your attention? I think Suga Nanako looks quite cute.

Also....Fujimoto Mizuki?
