First picture of the new regular AKB show "Sayonara Mouri-san" that will start airing on April 7!
Ex-member Miichan will be here as a support (I guess kind of like an assistant MC or something)
Looking forward to this show 💛

Former NMB48 member Suuchan (Yokono Sumire) is back from her entertainment hiatus and is signing with model agency Zero Ichi Familia.



Zero Ichi made their name with gravure models but have created 3 idol groups recently (#Babababambi, #2i2 and #YOYOYO). Suuchan will probably work as a gravure idol but she might be added to one of the groups or be part of a fourth group.

Yuki Kashiwagi's WACK group "SPY" recorded a cover of AKB48's "Oogoe Diamond" at the AKB48 theater




the cover is going to be a B-side on SPY's debut single "Anata wo Neraiuchi♡"







SPY roundtable




the single is going to be release next week

i literally have no idea how well is going to perform, it could sell anywhere from 5k to 50k in the first week, is going to depend on GANG PARADE's fandom, GP's first single since coming back sold 35k in the first week, their next one "Signal" is going to be around 40k or so, the problem is that both GP and SPY's singles are going to be release very close to each other

Maho seems the cutest akb member to me so I think I'll watch this

She is cute and quite entertaining! She got a good amount of screentime in the show so you'll see her a lot (she won some kind of voting or a contest that made her the "center" for this show, I think just for the first few episodes, so her screentime is good).



SKE's Suda Akari announced graduation recently:




Furuhata Nao also announced graduation not long before. Both of them will have their graduation in September! They're like 2 of the most popular in SKE, but also old gens... so it's expected that they would graduate although it's surprising that they leave at the same time though.

I got around to watching the first few episodes! I didn't know about Inagaki Kaori before but she was cute, and Maho was funny.
The impostors in the first episode were interesting, I knew I'd seen #5 somewhere so I wasn't sure if she was in AKB or not.

Looks like the latest episode is interesting, I saw some clips from it being spread online.
