Age of AKB48 Idols

So, if the same thing happens more than one time in similar surroundings and rarely in different ones, that has to prove that there is more going on than just coincidence, right?

So if in this case Marika goes all goey at the prospect of a moe-fied Chiaki, I can totally ship it without sounding like a crazy loot, right?

I mean this happened at their first meeting in episode 01…

24 episodes after, Marika has met countless girls who are already being added to her harem by others but has she yet to blush to them while she calls them cute? Even that loli-fied Princess and her even more gyu-inducing little sister brought this out of Marika-sama…Na Uh!

Chiaki-chan comes back in the latest episodes and second to last this happens again…

See

Also what Marika said in that last cap can directly be translated as ‘Chiaki is indeed cute.’ It makes more sense in Japanese but it’s more of a confirmation that Chiaki is as cute as Marika first thought her.

And I guess what I am trying to say by this crazy post is that Marika’/Chiaki totally, and kind of officially, tramps all other Marika pairings!

There, I said it!

And finally, I wonder if this…

Is a homage to my Goddess. I mean we all know who the winking deity of AKB during performances is…And then the way Chiaki sought out that camera was as expertly done as Goddess Yukirin herself!

Either way, I approve!
