Overall. As with Day 3, this setlist could either be great or it could be total shit depending on how you look at it. The Top 6 was a singles fest (good or not that depends on you). SDN making it into Top 25. 3 Seconds at no. 9. But then there was the shitty choices of subs. The lack of K songs, and the questionable choice of songs. Or rather, the questionable lack of some songs. Where did Amai Kokansetsu go?!
24. Now this I did not expect totally. After not seeing an SDN song in day 3 I gave up hopes for another one to appear. Glad Kodoku na Runner made it in. I can't really say much about SDN songs because I've only heard 2 (Black Boy and this), but from the performance in AKBINGO I totally love this song.
18, 09. No3b continues its streak. I guess we have Mendol to thank for that. Yay for 3 seconds making the top 10.
15. THIS IS THE TEAM K SONG. WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT TEAM K SONGS, YOU THINK ABOUT THIS. I'm glad the fans agree with me. I'm happy that it made it in the Top 20. No other song will ever replace Korogaru. THIS WILL BE THE LAST TIME THE ORIGINAL TEAM K WILL PERFORM THIS SONG OFFICIALLY AS TEAM K. TREASURE THIS MOMENT.
14. And YEAH Amina's unit made it so high! THANK YOU all Amina (and Tomochin and Kitarie) wotas. You have my gratitude.
12. Takajo subbed for Mikichii. Now that is so wrong. That's the most wrong thing ever, even Rabutan singing Kuchi Utsushi is not as wrong as this. I'm just WTFing right now. I'm not blameing Mikachii for not coming or Akicha for being made to sing this song. Besides Nakayan was present and wasn't used for the previous or next few songs.
11. Yuko solo. One of the best ballads I have ever heard even outside AKB. I actaully teared up when I saw this song at 11. So beautiful. But I smiled when I cried. (heh)
08. Shonichi 8th? What did the B wotas become lazy or something? I totally expected and was hoping for this to be in the Top 5.
07. Maimai didn't come back :(. But lets not blame anybody here okay? Her schedule probably clashed. She does have work and such you know.
05. I'm guessing this is due to those casual fans who have never been to the Theatre and have never heard the stage songs. The wotas aren't much of a fan of this song sadly.
02. A B-side song actaually beating all the other A-side songs (except 1)!! This song is one of my favourite songs ever and I'm glad this got the 02 spot. If I knew beforehand that both Amina and Sayaka won't be performing Confession then this would be the song I would have voted for.
01. And the Top song of 2009 is......Iiwake Maybe. I have mixed feeling about this song getting 1st place. On one hand it is a nice idoly song with a good tune and all that. I like it and the wotas like it. And it is the only song where Amina is senbatsu. On the other hand I like Kimi no Koto better and was hoping that it would be the top instead.
I will make another post about AX 2010 overall as a whole within the next 2 days.

Overall. Well this could either be an awesome setlist or the worst depending on how you look at it. One one hand, there are lots of incredible songs and lots of fan favourites. On the other hand, a lot of those songs were in the top 20 last year but it dropped down massively. 50, 48B, 47, 46, 43, 40, 35, 34, 33 were all high ranking songs last year. What are they doing so far down? The biggest drop would be Ashita wa from 08 to 50! This is just......what? Other than that, OMG what happened to all the Team K fans?! Last year had loads of K songs compared to this year. B songs seems to be missing too! Also the setlist of Day 4 looks to be very different than what was given in the halfway result. And heh this pretty much confirms that Korogaru and Tsundere will be tomorrow. Oh and today we have 3 graduates returning. There were a few songs that supposed to have graduates but they didn't appear. Let's not get angry here shall we they are probably busy with their own stuff.
50. Seriously what is Ashita wa doing so low. Oh and Mocchi performed this in place or Rinatin because she was in hospital. From her blog, she was supposed to but she couldn't due to whatever was wrong with her. Well get well soon Rinatin.
48B. I'm glad Naruru managed to come back to perform this. Oh man I'm sure to bawwww when I watch this on the DVD. To me, this is THE Team K song other than Korogaru.
43. Tojima Hana and Kawasaki Nozomi returns for Faint. They also did an MC.
36.Remember last year after Tomomi and Erepyon performed Tonari no Banana, that it would get 25 this year? Well it got 26 during the halfway results. It then went down to 36 but that is still quite an improvement.

Overall. An epic setlist today. Team K dominated today's setlist but there were loads of Singles. And the 1st (and hopefully not only) SDN song makes it's debut performance to the public. I seriously hope they keep the MCs in the DVD this year. The spies tell us the the MCs are seriously hilarious. One of the MCs had Meetan molesting Takamina! Man hilarious!
70, 65, 64. 3 WH songs in a day! I wonder where we will see Kanpeki guu no ne? Oh and during their MC they announced THE NEXT WH SINGLE dated for 17 March release!
63. Wow I totally didn't expect this song to be in the ranking! Too bad there weren't any Idoling!!! members. It would be awesome if they appeared together with AKB.
61. THEY WERE DRESSED AS PERSONA!!!! Now THIS made my day.
58. Wimbledon with Jurina. I was hoping for Tsukina. The fans probably voted this to see Tsukina. :(. Also the spies tell us that Kuumin was cross eyed during the performance. Now this I gotta see.
54A. SAYAKA SOLO!!!! Now I'm surprised this wasn't ranked much higher. I was thinking it would be in the 30s region.
53. 2 words. Garter throwing. Wait a min this is like 18+. Not all the audience is 18+... Not to mention there will be a DVD and loads of AKB's fandom is 18-. Well who cares.
52, 51. What a better way to end the day. With 2 rockish songs. Did anyone wear any bikinis under the coats for Blue Rose like the last two years?

Overall. An epic setlist today. Team K dominated today's setlist but there were loads of Singles. And the 1st (and hopefully not only) SDN song makes it's debut performance to the public. I seriously hope they keep the MCs in the DVD this year. The spies tell us the the MCs are seriously hilarious. One of the MCs had Meetan molesting Takamina! Man hilarious!
70, 65, 64. 3 WH songs in a day! I wonder where we will see Kanpeki guu no ne? Oh and during their MC they announced THE NEXT WH SINGLE dated for 17 March release!
63. Wow I totally didn't expect this song to be in the ranking! Too bad there weren't any Idoling!!! members. It would be awesome if they appeared together with AKB.
61. THEY WERE DRESSED AS PERSONA!!!! Now THIS made my day.
58. Wimbledon with Jurina. I was hoping for Tsukina. The fans probably voted this to see Tsukina. :(. Also the spies tell us that Kuumin was cross eyed during the performance. Now this I gotta see.
54A. SAYAKA SOLO!!!! Now I'm surprised this wasn't ranked much higher. I was thinking it would be in the 30s region.
53. 2 words. Garter throwing. Wait a min this is like 18+. Not all the audience is 18+... Not to mention there will be a DVD and loads of AKB's fandom is 18-. Well who cares.
52, 51. What a better way to end the day. With 2 rockish songs. Did anyone wear any bikinis under the coats for Blue Rose like the last two years?

Encore. Single - Enkyori Poster

Overall. Quite a number of A and H songs. Also only 2 B songs. Is that a sign for things to come? I'm expecting most of the B songs to be in the next 2 days. Not really a good setlist to start off but it had it's good points too. Also I hope the MCs will be included in the DVD. Our spies have told us that the MCs were really entertaining. Expecially the one with CinDy.
100, 99. Wow they managed to bring the whole original unit back for this. An incredible feat since the other girls all have their own schedules and stuff. I guess that now AKB are more popular, they want to make themselves known that they were in AKB.
96, 88. Their really using the Kenkyuuseis a lot compared to last year.
92, 86. Yay for SKE love. Our spies also tell us that Sayaka was dancing to Glory Days quite well from the hinadan. I'm not sure if we will see many more SKE songs in the following days. Other than Tsuyokimono yo, Te wo Tsunaginagara, Wimbledon e Tsureteitte, Ame no Pianist, I'm not sure if the other songs will make it. I would love to see Innocence up there.
83B. Damn I'm so pissed. This is the song that I voted for. And it went down to 83. What's more, neither of my two oshimen performed it. I was hoping for both to perform or at least one of them but they had to take both away.
80C. Wow Kurukurupaa managed to make it in the ranking! That was unexpected. I still can't forget that time last year when Kana was all dressed in Kurukurupaa costume when they were going to announce the no.1 song. Well she got her wish fulfilled.

02. Akimoto Sayaka (+340/-23) 317
01. Oshima Yuko (+340/-10) 330
I quite expected Yuko to be the top member since her thread is one of the most active in S48. I'm most surprised at Sayaka's position since I didn't expect so many people to be a fan of her. She was ranked 7th for 2008. And good job for girls like Sasshi, Meetan, Natsumi, Yuka and Haachan. Those few are those that I wouldn't ever expect to even be in the top 20. I also expect girls like Mayuyu and Kojiharu to be higher. Kojiharu was ranked 1st last year.

It's quite interesting to see the forum ranking so different from the Japanese Mixi rankings. I guess we gaijins (foreigners) have different tastes than the Japanese. For example Shinoda ranks 1st OMG WHAT SHE BEAT ACCHAN (2nd) THATS LIKE OMG! but she only ranked 36 for this ranking.

I don't want to make it a secret or anything. Besides I already ranked my top 10 here. By the way, Sayaka and Amina are tied in my ranking but if I'd ever have to rank one above the other, I'd rank Amina above because I know Sayaka will always get more votes than Amina. It's to push her up. And I didn't use any of my least favourite votes. I feel that none of the girls deserve to get negative votes.

02. Akimoto Sayaka (+340/-23) 317
Well I'm quite happy for Sayaka. Seeing her ranking drop from 3 in 2007 to 7 in 2008 made be fear for the worst that she will drop even further down this year. Thank goodness she rose back to 2nd place! I guess that it's partially because of the effect from NYAF? And congratulations to Amina for getting 22nd. She rose from 53rd with a -9 score in 2008 to 22nd with 77 in 2009!
But here comes my disappointment. Seeing Amina's score with 48 negatives. The only other girls with more negatives are Acchan (-83), Jurina (-66), Oku (-50) and Kana (-50). It's makes me sad to see such a girl with so much passion for her work get so many negatives. Not only her but Sayaka too. Compared to other girls who use AKB only as a stepping stone for other dreams. (BTW I don't hate those girls or anything). Well I guess looks and personality matter most in the Idol world anyway.

By the way, Sayaka and Amina are tied in my ranking but if I'd ever have to rank one above the other, I'd rank Amina above because I know Sayaka will always get more votes than Amina. It's to push her up. And I didn't use any of my least favourite votes. I feel that none of the girls deserve to get negative votes.
Oshimen Through the Years
2007
24. Sato Amina 12
03. Akimoto Sayaka 84
2008
53. Sato Amina (+48/-57) -9
07. Akimoto Sayaka (+219/-15) 204
2009
22. Sato Amina (+125/-48) 77
02. Akimoto Sayaka (+340/-23) 317
Well I'm quite happy for Sayaka. Seeing her ranking drop from 3 in 2007 to 7 in 2008 made be fear for the worst that she will drop even further down this year. Thank goodness she rose back to 2nd place! I guess that it's partially because of the effect from NYAF? And congratulations to Amina for getting 22nd. She rose from 53rd with a -9 score in 2008 to 22nd with 77 in 2009!
But here comes my disappointment. Seeing Amina's score with 48 negatives. The only other girls with more negatives are Acchan (-83), Jurina (-66), Oku (-50) and Kana (-50). It's makes me sad to see such a girl with so much passion for her work get so many negatives. Not only her but Sayaka too. Compared to other girls who use AKB only as a stepping stone for other dreams. (BTW I don't hate those girls or anything). Well I guess looks and personality matter most in the Idol world anyway.

Request Hour ~Set List Best 100 2010~ (Prelude)
First things first is 'Prelude' the correct word to use?
In 5 days time on 21 January to 24 January, AKB (with SKE and SDN) will hold their yearly concert at the Shibuya AX, and perform 25 songs each day (not including encores) for 4 days in a row. The top 100 songs will be voted by the fans out from a total of 255. The voting period is over. For most of us foreign fans, we are only entitled to 1 vote via the RIVER single.
The Request Hour concert is basically a battle between the fans to see which song they like, but more importantly also a battle to see your Oshimen's unit in the ranking. This is especially if your Oshimen has graduated. Graduated girls are invited to perform for the concert if their unit is in the ranking. So the Hana Oshimens are gonna vote up Faint, Rinatin Oshimens are gonna vote up Ashita wa, Junjou Shugi for Matsuyuki, Temodemo for Mikacchi, etc. So I'm expecting those songs to be high on the ranking.
I'm gonna say that Team K will have the hardest time compared to the other Teams to get high spots on the ranking. Sure they have a brand new stage compared to Team A but it ain't exactly the best stage ever except for a couple of songs. Plus the Team K fans will be split because Yuko, Sayaka and Erepyon have solo songs and their oshimens are probably gonna vote only for that song instead of the group/unit songs. Team B has the advantage of having lesser songs since they only have 2 stages so far. This means that Team B fans don't have to make so much of a choice compared to A and K fans. Plus if the Team B fans group together again like last year, were gonna see Shonichi very high up. But then Team A has the advantage of having the more popular members and therefore more fans which means we will see lots of Team A frontgirl units high in the ranking. Also going to be high in the rankings will be the subgroups No3b and WH.
A top 29 halfway result was released sometime ago before the voting ended. Here are the results. Songs like Aitakatta are actually listed by their Stages by the Management but for convenience sake I will list them as Single.
10. B3 - Shonichi
11. B3 - Temo Demo no Namida
16. K2 - Korogaru Ishi ni Nare
23. K5 - Saishuu Bell ga Naru
24. A5 - AKB Sanjou!
24. B4 - Kuchi Utsushi no Chocolate
26. H2 - Tonari no Banana
27. Single - Bingo!
28. A5 - Renai Kinshi Jourei
29. A4 - Junai no Crescendo
29. K5 - Saka Agari
Compared to last year, there are quite a number of Singles high up. Aitakatta was ranked 73 last year. As I predicted, Naki Nagara and First Love got high spots. Team A has the most songs in the top 29 but Team B's Shonichi is still ranked quite high. I am surprised at the lack of WH in he ranking but I think they are around the 30+ area and barely missed. The same goes for the Graduated girls. Tonari no Banana stands alone as the only Himawari song. Note that the list is probably gonna change quite a bit when we finally see them perform. I'm expecting WH to rise up, more B and K songs, and also the 2 K solos to go slightly down, and Sayaka's solo to go up. I'm also expecting a couple of SKE and SDN songs somewhere in the list.
A quick reminder of last year's ranking.

For those of you who have voted, what songs have you voted for? My vote goes to Confession. It was originally going to either Tsundere! or Korogaru whichever was lower in the ranking during the halfway result. But wow Tsundere! at 13 and Korogaru at 16! With those two safe I went for my 3rd choice of Confession not only because my 2 oshimens perform it and I may have a chance to see both of them together, but also because I love the song to death.

15th single name: [Sakura no Shiori]
The name of the 15th single has been announced to be [Sakura no Shiori], which translates into something like Bookmark of the Cherry Tree (according to online translators). There will be 3 different versions to be released. Type A, Type B and Theatre version.
All 48 girls (new Teams so no Meetan, CinDy and so on) will be in Sakura no Shiori. There still isn't much information about Majisuka Rock. Previews aren't even out yet. Enkyori and Choose Me are performed by the PB and YJ Teams. Each single will come with a handshake ticket.

Also on AKBINGO last night (or this morning), a performance of Sakura no Shiori was aired. Damn I so epicly love the song. I'm such a sucker for this type of music. It's like my 3rd favourite single song right now (1st and 2nd is RIVER and Kimi no Koto). It just sounds so calm peaceful and angelic. I think this will be a big hit. Maybe slightly lesser than RIVER (it's just too awesome) but still a very big hit. I am however worried. There are quite a lot of negative comments on S48 and Gogo. Quite a number of people hate it. It's also isn't the type of song that that most wotas would loop forever and ever. Even though I did just that and looped the song for 100+ times \m/. Nevertheless it is a graduation themed song and it is released near the graduation period and is aimed at the graduating people. Here are the previews. BTW WHERE IS AMINA IN THE AKBINGO PERFORMANCE!!!!

Akemashite Omedetou Gozaimasu
A very happy new year to AKB48, SKE48, and all AKB/SKE wotas.
To more incredible singles by AKB, SKE and their subgroups,
To more awesome stages from the new Teams,
To more concerts, events and likewise for both AKE, SKE,
To more exposure for the two groups and their members,
To good health for the members,
To a better future for AKB48 and SKE48!
2010, BRING IT ON!
As we start the New Year, let us look back at an eventfull 2009, and forward to a brand new year of AKB48
The TOP 5 happenings in 2009
5. AKB48 back in Kouhaku 2009
It's not easy being on that show. AKB48 didn't get invited for 2008.
4. Oshima Mai graduation
Big loss to AKB48 since she was a major frontgirl. Many fans were devastated.
3. New York Anime Festival
AKB48's debut concert in the West. Well there was Japan Expo in France too but NYAF is more important.
2. AKB48 Team Shuffles announcement
The most shocking event in 2009. Worse is that it had to be announced after a concert.
1. RIVER
Needs no text here. Other than AWESOME!
The TOP 5 (going to happen) happenings in 2010
5. Moar Walletraeping
Support official goods! Bigger projects need bigger budget.
4. Majisuka Gakuen
AKB48's first very own Dorama! Starring AKB48 (and some SKE).
3. Concerts
I can't think of what to say here. Nevertheless more and bigger concerts is good.
2. New Singles and Stages
AKB48 ain't AKB48 without their music. More darks songs please!
1. Team Changes
Already delayed for few months. Start it already i'm getting impatient!
I also changed the header image from the NYAF miniconcert to the Team K performance during the sports festival. Jan 2010 is the supposed date of the Team changes. Gonna miss the old Team K. The reason why I used that pic (even though the quality sucks and it's blurry) is because thats where Team K confirmed their unity.
