So, I just watched this month’s AKB to XX (Yes, it’s a monthly show! The horror!) and I literally had the craving to get out a bowl of popcorn and 3D glasses just less than 5 minutes into the episode! And I gotta say that as a YukiRena, Mayuki and CBS shipper, with a dose of SayaYuki, I am telling you now that I was not disappointed! It was gud! Oh so GUD! A lot of things happened this episode even more so where someone like me that sees even a single brush of clothes is concerned, that made me feel like flying! The grin on my face right now is not for the sane! Add on the fact that I have also just watched Tokyo Dome 2014 and I can assure I am having the happiest time this Christmas!
I don’t know about you all or what happened but this latest GAY in my NMB singles is a very welcome change! It started with the last single which was one of my Favs – Maachun’s last as an NMB member and now it continues in this single, the first with my Kami Yukirin as an NMB member. Coincidence? Um, let me get back to you on that!
And while Takane no Ringo just left things up to the viewer to speculate on that implied Maachun/Milky, things here in the 10th single (title ‘Rashiku’ BTW) are way more obvious! And really, when the setting is a catholic girl’s school you know there is gonna be yuri, where Japan is concerned anyway! And man, we did not get disappointed!
I am hoping too that NMB does something more differently this time and a longer slice of the movie dedicated to the drama parts because I want to enjoy all this teased yuri to its full glory! That hungry way with which Fuuchan stares at Mirurun’s perfect lips like she wants to devour them on the spot just has to going somewhere! Could it be we are going to get a BEST END where these two new Centres (Team M’s Shiroma Miru and Yagura Fuuko) kiss!?! Please God, take the luck you had spared for me when I play the lotto and give me this END! I don’t want nothing else!
Ah but it is not just these surprise Centres (A really good surprise! I am sure some of you caught me once complaining about the Sayanee domination in NMB at one point so this makes me really happy) but we also get a glimpse of an almost perfect threesome, well, the only threesome I would even ever consider and that is YukiSayaMilky! The way Yukirin had her arms around SayaMilky like they were her…
Lord Jesus!
So, Yukirin has not only brought the cute/sexy (Ibiza girl/Kyuusen Kyoutei) but she has brought her AKBGAY virus with her as well?
Heh, Just kidding!
Either way I am totally loving this single! And it has very little to do with the fact that my Kami is in it! Well played AKS, you totally got me when you managed to keep me around after getting rid of Maachun by bringing over Yukirin! Everything else < Yukirin so of course I would stay interested in NMB, well, at least part of it! Maachun was my link to NMB, the whole of NMB but now Yukirin only keeps me interested in only Yukirin related NMB activities.
Well, this means that I have to buy the new singles even as I had thought I wouldn’t after Maachun left! At the very least the yuri is also another strong reason to buy it next to Yukirin too but still, I miss Maachun in NMB! I still don’t understand that move from them! Maachun? Really? And what are you doing with her in AKB anyway, other than the fact that you are milking her of her comedian skills? Which by the way she doesn’t seem to utilize as much anymore.
So, Lolly asked me what my No.1 ships were in the 48 Family and X21 so instead of a quick comment, I am using this post for some pics sharing and a wider word spread!
None of these should be a surprise really to all who have been Readers of Yuri goggles for a while now. MAYUKI dominate the Main Dorm in Akihabara, WMatsui, despite the fact that they are a professional ship still are my favourite even as I have yet to see blog pics of the two being lovey dovey. Seriously I know they might be busy or something but still…Not even one!?! Talk about bad Fan-service! Thank the Lord for the PVs!
HKT is mainly about my personal tastes than anything else because I have yet to find an actual honest to God couple. They all haven’t found a firm ground yet being all flighty, maybe Madoka/Natssun. I had found a grounded ship in Chori/Aanyan but alas, they went and dismantled them with the transfers! And speaking of transfers…

SAYACCHU T.T)/
Damn you management, damn you! All the fucks I’ve given about NMB since the shuffles have only to do with Yukirin and we all know how little of her appearance in there is. NMB has gone from being my favourite group and Team N almost thrashing Team B for favourite Team and me watching every single N stage to me not even caring anymore! They even split up my Shuuka, like…
I guess I under-estimated how much Maachun really meant to me. Seriously I thought I loved that girl but not to this extent! I didn’t think her leaving NMB would make me lose so much interest in it to the point of not even watching any of their stages! Since new team N’s debut, I haven’t seen a single NMB stage! I don’t know how she affected me so. Before, I watched almost all Teams’ stages even the KKS (Thanks to Riichan 24hr TV getting me interested in them BTW) but now…Paruru gives more fucks about anything than I do NMB!
Anyway…moving on! It was a hard decision to decide between Yumi/Reika and Ikomiona but my love for Ikoma-kun and Hocchan totally cheated the test to have a perfect score! There is just something about those two and Hocchan’s hobbies give that un-expected spice to the relationship whereas Reika and Yuki are your typical perfect couple and we have enough of those going around so…
As for X21, MaiMai and Miho are still my favourites. I never get tired of the way they watch each other during interviews when the other speaks and how they somehow always end up next to one another. Now granted if you were asking me who was my favourite from their TV show, then of course Rina and Ichigo totally take the cake but that is only within the show’s universe. Outside in the real world, I actually ship Ichigo with someone else so…
Any way, I hope this answered your question perfectly Lolly! Be seeing you around (I hope)
I’m no SayaYuki shipper, yet, nor am I a SayaMilky shipper but the way Milky stares holes in the back of Yukirin’s head as if she were cursing her in an ancient Egyptian language gave me the chills and made me wonder just how much she feels for Sayanee. I still stand by my view on their relationship being all business only but some doubts are beginning to surface.
And first of all, what was Yukirin doing there to Sayanee? Admiring her necklace? Don’t all the girls, if not most of them there have it? Isn’t it part of the costume? And Sayanee of all people? She looks like the least person there interested in those kinds of girly things but then again, she is still a girl at the core so she must have felt great to be seen as such when Yukirin praised her at how beautiful the necklace looked on her. That is if that was what Yukirin was doing. I still don’t know what was going on and just like Milky and Rena here…
I too demand an explanation.
BTW, looking at that cap, here’s what I think was going on. Neesan is all like – Girl calm your tits! Believe me Yukirin is the least person you have to worry about stealing ur girl. Hearing that though Rena is like – What does she mean by that?
LOL
And looking at this placement means that Rena must have been also closely watching Yukirin being all comfy with Sayanee. Too bad we did not see her close-up look at that moment. She was probably, probably, thinking of worse ways that Gekikara could mess Sayanee up! Damn, now I really want to see it. She was probably smiling. And that is somehow worse than Milky’s glare of death!
I don’t believe it still! Sayanee’s reaction LOL. Looks like even now nobody knows WTF they were thinking doing it! Can we all agree that this was the only time Sayanee kissed someone? unless of course I am totally missing something. Really though, denying these two’s connection is just incomprehensible! What a way though to end our Sayacchu? I mean not that this is the end but we all know what distance does to couples. Even if Sayanee is a Team K intern and usually is in AKB singles as Senbatsu, they still won’t be meeting usual as they were during NAMBA.
And probably someone has noticed but I have changed Maachun’s place in the tags to AKB48 since it is all over. She is no longer NMB48 now. Even TV programmes are labelling her as AKB…
Sad, sad times. Not to mention that she has already had her send off/last Team N performance already and a birthday/send off party. Which by the way Sayanee did not attend? Like WTF Sayanee?! That was what I was thinking when I started watching that YNN episode and she was nowhere to be seen. But of course she explained herself in her video message she sent Maachun. Yes, it’s the same video in which she confesses to the world how she and Maachun kissed during the Kinki Concert tour way back in 2012. Umm sorry to break it to you Sayanee but the whole world knows! Then again, it was probably aimed towards the members who knew nothing of it.
Maachun though, how much is that girl loved?! Seriously! One would think she was graduating the way Namba management and the members were treating her! I swear I am still baffled by this mystery surrounding Maachun and the fans! She is so obviously loved in reality but when it comes to things like Senbatsu voting its the exact reverse! I don’t get it! What is really going on? I mean even management don’t hate her that much. Seriously every single single since Oh My God she has had that real centre spot in each and every one of them. And by Centre I don’t mean the front centre, I mean real middle Centre. you know, like the position Acchan had in the early days? Remember? No?
There it is! That is the position Maachun has right in the middle of Sayanee and Milky and to me, that is the real Centre! While the masses are split between looking to the left or right for SayaMilky, Maachun is right there in the middle like a BOSS! But alas, all that is over now. Seriously if not for Yukirin moving to N, I don’t think I would have stayed over there. Damn those smart bastards!
See?
Damn it, Imma gonna miss Maachun in NMB. She was really a great existence in there and if anyone didn’t appreciate her, I have no words for them really. I have not felt that a member was essential to a team since Takamina and Yukirin to their respective Teams so while I am pretty stocked that she is in my favourite Team since the ice age, she really defined NMB for me. That’s right, not SayaMilky but Maachun. Those two are like AKB’s representatives to Namba while Maachun is the exact opposite.
Oh well, things happen and all we have to do is try to adjust lest we lose our way and wither away. I love Team B, and now my Kami has gone to N so my two favourite Teams are still my top two favourite teams. Speaking of new Teams…
B Garden!
That is Team B’s song title for the summer single guys! B is still taking all the attention when it comes to titles. B Garden?Seriously? More like Garden of Eden! Damn you Yasusu! Just make the song good to take another title of best Team song and we are good. Though I doubt it. We will probably have to wait until the new stages to get a Request hour topper B song again.
