What is this name for the new unit!?!? It’s so….. uncool…. lol

“

 It seems Ripopo will play a center…. As usual, it’s difficult to read AkiP’s thought….

Kotani Riho on G+

Hi there! This is Ripopo!

And I’m playing a center for the new unit called Namba Teppoutai Sonoichi for the 5th Single. Hai ha!!
I’ve never imagined that I would become a center of anything in my life.
So at least for this time, please check out a center played by Ripopo!

And team N’s new Stage has also decided!

So what’s going on today, ANYWAY!!
I’m so overwhelmed by these surprise announcements…. I even doubt if tomorrow I would exist in this world??

“
I think this is AkiP’s usual love for Ponkotsu. Maybe he was like “How Hetare Ripopo is!! OMG I love this girl!!”
He will promote Ripopo as Sashihara in NMB48, I guess?

“
How much he wants to take by choosing Ripopo for a center lol
“
I think this is a nice pick as she relatively has few Anti, and she is basically funny.
“
↑LOL She does has many Anti.
“
I thought it’s only the title of the tour that Yasusu decided…? (and he let NMB’s management and agencies etc. to decide members for the single?)
“
Uhmm I would rather say that Ripopo can utilize her talent the most when she keeps reserved in various senses….
“
I hope Ripopo will improve her response to fans at handshake events as she may be gonna have more fans because she joins Janken tournament final and plays a center in this new unit.
Now it’s like most of fans who meet her at handshake event have been more or less shocked.
“
That’s what I’m concerning about, too. Like Paruru, members who have a wide gap between reception among fans and reception among management have problems in their response to fans in most case.
“
Personally, I think Aka-gumi is again gonna be my favorite. If they exchange Nana and Ainyan, it would be perfect?
Though I like Ainyan, too, after i watched the last single’s MV, I have an impression that Nana was a good match for Aka-gumi.
“
So Nana is in Shiro-gumi this time…. It looks like they don’t fix which team she joins in each single release.
“
Maybe because Nana has disliked to join Aka-gumi, she appeal directly to somebody in charge of arranging members for the single that she wants to join in Shiro-gumi?
“
Yeah… The song performed by Aka-gumi in the last single was all about Milky…
I would like them to feature 3Top, Milky, Ainyan and Maachun in this single’s Aka-gumi.
“
Maachun also probably wanted to return to Shiro-gumi….but somehow, and it’s perplex, she’s once again in Aka-gumi…
“
I wish they will make a song like 最後のカタルシス….. I still love to watch this song…..
“
Yeah, yeah, カタルシス was seriously nice.
“
Teppoutai is not a kind of penalty game for selected members that the song won’t have PV and is contained only in theater version, right?
Is my understanding that this new unit is an alternative for Namba7 right?
Wait…. Namba7 also didn’t have PV….. orz
“
I think because Shiokichi wrote on her blog that she joined the secret filming dressed in a costume, Teppoutai will probably have a MV…?

“
If they don’t make MV for Teppoutai, it’s a waste of talents like Fuuchan, Ayabaa and Shu….
“
I won’t be surprised if they don’t make MVs for Kohaku (Aka and Shiro) when I look at members line-up of both units.
It will also decrease workloads for Senbatsu top members.
“
If they won’t make MVs for Kohaku, I would be a little disappointed….. Because My Oshi has selected for Kohaku for the first time, I hope they will leave a visual record for her…..
“
What Teppoutai’s costumes will be like~?
“
If they have a common sense, it probably will be like this.

“
But what’s wrong with Fuuchan…. I am worrying that she has done something wrong as it’s strange that she wasn’t selected for Senbatsu…..
Then I found Murakami and Keira are in the same situation as her….
Like Momoka, who is now under medical treatment, why past Senbatsu members of team M have such a miserable treatment….
