But making an effort is a prerequisite to be a member of AKB48. It’s not something they should praise. So I think it’s a bit strange to evaluate Yokoyama so highly for this reason…. But…. if she was a leader of team 4, then she can form a 2 top with Paruru, and it would do good for the team. Lemon, Haruu, Kawaei and Ranran….. team 4 actually has talents!!
Watching Team 4 is painful because they lack many things…. They don’t have sense of crisis, teamwork, guts or willpower… They have literally no hunger in their spirit… On top of that, they lack capability. By the way, their concept is “Generation change”….
I am looking forward to seeing what some members of Team 4 will shout at AkiP… “Let us do our original Stage!!” from the stage on June6th at Budo-Kan… lol
>>29 If there are some members who cause something Dramatic, it will be either Paruru or Ranran. We can’t expect what they will do on a big stage. They never fail to utter what they want to say, so I’m always afraid that they will make too bold a remark….
Suzuran is appealing that her family is very rich. Maybe because of that, she is a bad mannered girl. And maybe because of this, she is hated by Yuihan.
9th gen members are lacking media exposure as they only make appearance on the maniac midnight TV shows that only Ota watch. Not to mention other members of Team 4…
There are quite a lot of uncute girls in SKE, too, since the very first audition of SKE was held at the time when AKB was still unpopular. Of course, members who applied to AKB48 after the group has become popular are cuter than older members generally.
But I think it’s rather fun to follow team 4’s growth from this Ponkotsu state, as they finally will show their guts because of our strict feedback and the catching up of the 12th and 13th gen.
As currently they are completely slammed by everyone, they haven’t yet forged their way with their own feet, though they have gotten a promotional support from management who can’t wait for “generation change” to happen naturally. So basically they lack the touching stories and episodes, which Ota love.
