All SDN48 Members Graduating

During the SDN48 stage performance today, Noro Kayo, captain of SDN48, announced that the whole group would be graduating with a farewell concert next year 31st of March.

This news was spread rather fast and soon enough I got to know about it through a fan-base in Singapore. Was rather shocked and did not really wanted to believe till it was official posted on the SDN48 official blog.

SDN48は、それぞれのメンバーが進むべき道を目指すために

全員揃ってグループを卒業をすることになりました。

2012年3月31日に現行メンバー揃ってのさよならコンサートをもって

SDN48としての第一章はその役目を終えます。

Link for the full blog post here

Translation of a part of the blog post:
“It has been 2 years and 2 months since we formed SDN48, and we would like to thank you for your large support and warmhearted messages since the beginning.

In order to focus on each member’s career path, all the members of SDN48 will graduate from the group together.

Through their farewell concert on March 31st, 2012, the first chapter of SDN48 will conclude its role.

We are approaching the time where we need to think about our break point.

Though all of us will go on a new stage to fulfill our own dreams, please continue to support us.”
Translation from tokyohive

The post also mentioned about the graduation being the end of the 'first chapter' of SDN48. I suppose all members would indeed graduate and replaced a fresh new batch? Can't confirm anything yet, so shall wait for more news to come.

What's for sure to me is I would definitely miss Yukarin a lot as she is the only one that I love a lot in the whole group. Hope she get into a career that she likes after graduation. I will forever support her! >_<

Sending off SDN48 members at Changi Airport

Woke up early today to catch the first train (caught the second train instead) from my place to Changi Airport. Still wasn't able to come up with a gift to give Yukarin as a souvenir yet so decided to take a look in the 7-Eleven at Changi Airport Terminal 2 Departure Hall. Didn't find anything that is really good to give her as a souvenir so I went ahead with this Merlion.


SDN48 members entering the Departure Hall

Didn't realize I went so close the member next to Yukarin until I saw this photo that my friend took for me. Wanted to pass Yukarin the Merlion. =X
(Yukarin is wearing a cap)

Hope Yukarin likes the gifts I gave her and I hope to see her again. Missing her already. T_T

AKB48 Singapore Theater 'Live' Vol.8: 'SDN48 2ND STAGE!'


After reaching home from the airport, I took a short power nap before preparing to set off to work. Yes, work. =_= Wasn't able to get whole day off but I still managed to bargain a half day off though.

Rushed down to *SCAPE at around 5pm and while on the way, a bird shit drop on my head. Omg.. what a day is today. T_T Lucky the bird is eating healthy and managed to washed it away easily in the toilet.

My ticket did not get me the first row (Information on the queuing system here) so I joined my other friends at the back, behind the last row of seats. Wanted to be in first row to be closer to Yukarin (Sato Yukari) and get her attention (and her garter - inside people would know what I mean ^w^) but sadly don't have the luck and 'connections'. The back wasn't that bad though. It was so fun as there's no space constraint! Only thing that still hurt my heart is that I wasn't able to catch Yukarin's garter during the song, '誘惑のガーター' ('Yuuwaku no Garter')... TAT Only the first couple of rows (first row in fact) stand the chance to catch it when she throws it!

Whining aside, the concert was as expected, really awesome and of course sexy! (SDN48 is a mature-themed sister group of AKB48 whose concerts were supposed to be age restricted. With age restriction lifted, the dances would of course be milder but still are sexy)
The concert reached it's peak when they performed the cover songs of their three singles,'Min Min Min', 'Ai Chuseyo', and 'GaGaGa'. Was totally going crazy then o(^o^)o

The handshake session while exiting the concert area was like the previous SDN48 concert in Singapore, totally AWESOME! The SDN48 gives really good handshakes! The day reached it's peak when I reached Yukarin. She remembered me and said some stuff that I did not get initially while I keep trying to say if I can be her #1 fan. I not sure if she got it but I heard something '4' from her. Only soon later did I realize she was referring to the letter I wrote to her, which was given to her along with the customized tee at the airport!


She was actually referring to me only able to come after 4 due to work, to confirm that it was me and was talking about it to me which I don't really remember as I was already on cloud nine!
Due to the delay I caused while I had a conversation with Yukarin, the people behind me was being pushed to speed up the queue - and causing my friend to be not able to shake a couple of SDN48 members' hands. Oops! Sorry!! This is what normally happens when one meets his/her most favourite member of a group. >_<
Only if my Japanese is much better. T_T I could have a proper conversation with her instead of one containing so many question marks!

Rushed out to the back of *SCAPE after the handshake to camp at a good spot at the side of the van which the SDN48 members would be leaving in...




... but in no luck as other SDN48 members sat on the seats in front of my spot and thus Yukarin sat nearer to the back. I did attract Yukarin's attention while she finding for a seat though and what she did TOTALLY MELTED MY HEART!! She waved to me and gave me a moe-moe-kyun heart sign!! <3
Ohhh myy godddd... It was totally unforgettable >w<
(Did not have photos of her as I was too preoccupied waving and keeping my eyes on Yukarin)

Now the trouble. Feel like giving another gift to her relating to Singapore as a souvenir when sending her off at the airport tomorrow but at this time it's impossible to find one already... Shall see what to do tomorrow then.

Welcoming SDN48 members at Changi Airport


How been anticipating for this for quite some time already. One of my oshi (favourite member from the '48' groups) is coming to Singapore! It would be SDN48's second stage later today and my SDN48 oshi, Sato Yukari, is in the member list. Went down to Changi Airport to welcome the SDN48 members yesterday and most importantly, to give Yukarin the custom made tee that I designed.



I did successfully give the tee to Yukarin but the process of giving to her was rather... Ah well, quite sad.. but well, she got it in the end and know that it was from me, so it's still okay.

While they were still behind the glass doors, collecting their luggage, most of the fans that I know were not able to recognize who is who initially as almost every of the SDN48 members were wearing masks, which is actually not uncommon for Japanese. I managed to identify who is Yukarin after awhile and really hoped that I am right as I don't want to give the tee to the wrong person and create an awkward situation. =X (which actually did happen but in another way)

While they started to walk out, a fan girl was totally screaming out to Yukarin that when by the time she reached near the area of the barricade I am at, she did not notice me calling out to her and trying to give her the tee. Unexpectedly, the SDN48 member behind her thought that the tee was for her and took it while thanking me. I was stunned for a moment and I thought I have identified wrongly but when she looked at the tee, she said 'Yukarin?' then I realized I did identify correctly. I am so sorry to that member and I wasn't able to identify who is she so that I can apologize during the handshake event after the concert later today. Things did not really went out of plan though, she called out to Yukarin and passed her the tee while pointing out that it was from me. I tried to wave to Yukarin while showing the tee I am wearing (the exact same tee I made for her - the tee shown above). She spotted me and waved back while thanking me and say 'I love Singapore!'. Was damn happy and I shouted back 'I love Yukarin!!' <3 >w<


Yukarin holding on to the tee

I think I can't make it to get the tickets this Saturday... T_T My boss want me to work at least from 12pm to 4:30pm... She actually wanted me to work till 9pm but with some bargaining I managed to be able to work just half a day with a lie (a white lie I would say =X) so that I would still be able to go for the second time slot of the concert. Damn the boss. I did go according to the contract by telling in advance that I can't work on the 8th! Am already damn pissed that I am unable to go for both time slots (2pm & 6pm) and if she changes her mind and say I must work whole day, I am going quit with no hesitation! (Since I actually should not be working for now as I am still studying in Polytechnic and that I got the job in the first place is to get extra income to spend on my fandom, not to obstruct my fandom!) Sorry if this sounds childish >[

Not yet talks about love in “Pera Pera Perao” DVD

AKB48 sub-unit Not yet is gearing up to release their third single, “Pera Pera Perao“.

As reported earlier, the single will come in three different versions: Type A, Type B, and Type C. Each edition will come with a DVD containing the music video for “Pera Pera Perao” and a special video recording.

The DVD for Type A will feature a ‘girl’s talk’ between members Oshima Yuko (23), Sashihara Rino (18), Kitahara Rie (20), and Yokoyama Yui (18) in their pajamas. Although AKB48 has a ban on relationships, the girls’ conversation will revolve around the topic of ‘love’. With Oshima as the primary listener, each member will mention the type of person they like.

Yokoyama revealed, “If he tells me he likes me, I might end up liking them back.” Sashihara agreed, saying, “I’m the same!“, before exposing her negative philosophy on love.

The DVD for Type B and C will include footage of the members interviewing ‘talk specialists’. Oshima will interview talento Korokke (51), whom met before her break at a darts bar. Yokoyama will chat with Tokumitsu Kazuo (70), the free announcer who served as the MC for AKB48’s “3rd Senbatsu Election“, while Sashihara will seek advice from talento Tsuchida Teruyuki (39), who appeared on her show, “Sashiko no Kuse ni“. Finally, Kitahara will sit down with talento Imada Kouji (45), her co-star in CBC’s “Nobunaga“.

Be sure to catch this footage when “Pera Pera Perao” gets released on November 16th.
