AKB48: “Everyday, Kachusha” almost sells 1 million in one day, Oshima Yuko leads election – Tokyograph
AKB48′s latest single is a huge success and almost assured to set sales records. Also, the early results for the 3rd Senbatsu Election have been released, which leads me to…
[EVENT] 3rd Senbatsu Election (Early Results: 5/25) – stage48
Pages and pages of reactions to the early election results. Sometimes I forget just how competitive AKB48 (and their fandom) is. The emotions in this thread run the gamut. I actually feel kind of guilty reading it without participating in it. I’m reading wota responses at their emotional highs and lows in an intimate setting. It’s like voyeurism.
It should be mentioned that many more votes are still to be counted. We are at like the New Hampshire Primary stage of the election. Remember when Hillary won that?

Another idol group! This one comes Singapore. I’m afraid they are too old for Ray though.
Figured Me Out: LISTEN UP’s “小さな汽車と花」”春の声” – Make Believe Melodies
I like the honesty here. A few bloopity-bloops can make a song quite enjoyable, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
Nothing’s Carved in Stone- Chain Reaction PV – Neaux Clicked on It
David forgot one more type of person: the puddle belly-flopper. I’ve seen it. Either way, great song!
