Wizz 11 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I came to appreciate the retired queen Atsuko Maeda last night. She's getting to look somewhat saucier now she's out of the gang. Link to post Share on other sites
1 4 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Caught a bit of that. What surprised me was how 'old' (well, in their 20's) quite a few of them were. Some were closing in on 30 even in a few years. Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Yes kind of surprising. A fair few of them in their mid 20's. Way past it! Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Did the most talented lady win? What are her policies? I think she promised to try and learn to sing. Link to post Share on other sites

Chriselle 158 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Ok...maybe we can just go back to talking about it. I don't need to see any more of this spectacle. Makes me feel queasy quite honestly. Link to post Share on other sites
klingon 10 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 You don't like spectacle, Chriselle?! Link to post Share on other sites
Chriselle 158 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Ya...just reminds me of an outdoor gig my band played at years ago. There was this idol girl group that came along in a tour bus to give a performance. Cute enough kids I guess and talented for sure...but the 80 or so skebe otaku dude fans that were falling over themselves to get close to the stage......my god, I wish I had a gatling gun. That was the queasy part I was thinking about. Just imagine the number of dude fans at that AKB show....gives me the willys. Link to post Share on other sites

Chriselle 158 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I'd be fine with that... better than their over-interest in 13 yr old kids. Link to post Share on other sites

Metabo Oyaji 71 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I'm surprised no-one has mentioned it but the AKB-48 janken taikai is on LIVE now. Everyone's probably too busy watching to post. Link to post Share on other sites

pie-eater 207 Posted December 10, 2013 Author Share Posted December 10, 2013 Back on to the important subject of AKB48. In their recent video for the classic track "Ai no fortune cookie", what exactly are they 'doing' at the 30-40 second mark. Are they acting out turning some kind lever? Playing about with a Rubiks Cube? Or perhaps making a milk shake? I can't work it out, and it's bothering me somewhat. Link to post Share on other sites
