AKB48 Young Jump Gravure Lottery

1st Young Jump Gravure 2014

The second AKB48 Young Jump Gravure Lottery has been announced!

Any members who are at least high school age can apply, but it’s likely that most of the applicants will be those who wouldn’t otherwise get the chance to do magazine shoots.
No official list of candidates has appeared yet, but various members have announced their candidacy on their Google+ pages.

Uchiyama Natsuki   02 / 20 8:50

I’m a candidate for the 26-girl Young Jump Gravure!

Umeta Ayano   02 / 20 11:50

There’s a plan for a Young Jump Gravure. Of course I’m a candidate!!

Mogi Shinobu   02 / 19 14:05

You all want to see some Mogi gravure, don’t you!? Right!!!???

From the candidates, 26 girls will be selected, and each will be given a gravure shot in Young Jump, probably the most widely sold weekly shounen magazine in Japan.

Selection is completely random, with management having no hand in it, so anyone is possible. Winners will be given swimsuit gravure shots spread across the issues being released on April 3rd and April 10th.

Hashimoto Hikari Gravure

The number of girls allowed to participate in this gravure is fewer than the previous one, which selected 50 girls from the applicants, and gave Ego Yuna (SKE48 Team S), Murase Sae (NMB48 Team M) and Imada Mina (HKT48 Trainee) full-page spreads in only one issue.

The other members were only given very small images. It’s likely that, with only 26 winners spread across two issues, the shots will be much larger – perhaps four members to a page across three pages in each issue, with two members getting full page spreads.
