Separated from Mai Shiraishi on TV Tokyo, she went to meet the other members, and Junnori Watanabe went to meet Yoshio Konno and was told that today's 11th lineup will be announced by him.

But it's just the sound that goes out, and the people don't leave the country.

"Isn't there anything to change the lineup?" asked Yoshio Konno.

Jun Watanabe shook his head, originally wanting to move Asuka Saito to the second row and enter the Ten Lucky Gods, but what Mai Shiraishi said was not unreasonable. There is always an excesses in everything, and suddenly raising Asuka (Asuka Saito) to a high position is not necessarily a good thing for her growth.

"Then I'll leave today's recording to you!" Konno Yoshio patted him on the shoulder.

After that, Jun Watanabe went to the banana man's lounge to meet Shirakudo and Yuki Himura.

"You will announce the selection lineup of 11 singles?"

"Yes, it seems that this is the arrangement of Akimoto-sensei and Konno-san. ”

"That's still the same as last time, I'll cue you out, as for the order, you look at it. Just read the name, and I'll leave the rest to Himura and me. ”

Jun Watanabe nodded.

Shiraku looked at the time on the steel watch, "Alright, let's go into the studio." ”

The three of them walked into the studio together, and the members of the group had already arrived early, gathered in the corner, not as noisy as last time, but a little quiet.

Sure enough, every time the single selection lineup is announced, it is a severe test for the members.

The competition between the girl groups was shown in front of the audience, which stimulated the rice players to sell their kidneys more desperately in order to protect their idols, protect their positions and smiles, which is very effective in terms of effect.

Even if it is not aimed at the fan group, as an ordinary audience, you can see the fierce and cruel competition within the girl group from the process of announcing the single selection lineup, which is both a highlight and an interesting part.

The girl's tears and painful expression, this process of being abused, even if they don't pay attention to the group, also has a sense of freshness and excitement for the audience.

Today is the announcement of the 11th single lineup (18 people), so all the members of the group are here.

With all the work in place one by one, this issue of "Where is Nogizaka" has finally been officially recorded.

"Knock, okay to start Nogizaka, we are the host banana man, please advise!"

"And then there's Nogizaka-chan!"

The opening line, which is still familiar, is not tired of listening to it hundreds of times, and the camera camera passes over the faces of all the members.

The members, dressed in dark green plaid skirt uniforms, sit in five rows up and down, smiling and waving at the camera.

"Please announce today's project!"

"11 singles, single selection members announced!"

The members applauded, the expressions on their faces were very grim, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn.

"This is the announcement of the selection members of the 11 lists. ”

"Hi. ”

Usually the two MCs sit in their seats, but today they are standing together, and the expressions on their faces are extremely serious, and they are no longer as casual and funny as in the past.

"This show is also the announcement of the selection of members for every order, and today is the eleventh time!"

"By the way, today Sayuri Inoue (flu) and Sayro Nagashima (time conflict) are absent. ”

"Watanabe-kun!" Shirakuto called his name, and Jun Watanabe walked to a small podium as instructed by the staff and spread the list of the 11th selection lineup evenly on the podium.

"The formation of 11 orders is like this, 18 people are selected, divided into three rows, and the ten members of the first and second rows are the ten lucky gods this time. ”

"Where do you start to publish?"

"Usually it starts at number 18. ”

Jun Watanabe thought about it, it's not good to start directly from the first row, it's too jealous, and it's only right to start with the second and third rows first.

"This time it starts with the second row, then the first row, and finally the third row, and so on. ”

As soon as Jun Watanabe's words came out, a whisper came from below.

"Nani?"

"Won't it?"

"What the hell?"

"Usually, the first emission is published last. ”

"yes, this time it's actually two-one-three. ”

Jun Watanabe announced the selection lineup for the first time, so naturally he couldn't come as in the past, so how could that show his presence?

Anyway, as long as you don't publish the first row in front.

"Then we start selection announcement of 11 singles immediately, and Watanabe-kun, please!"

Although people don't leave the country, they don't deliberately hide it in terms of title, after all, there are too many people with the surname Watanabe, and even if it is discovered from the sound that the publisher of this single is himself, it is not a big deal.

Suspicion is always suspicion, and it is not yet time to announce that he is the artistic director of the troupe.

"First of all, No. 10, Mai Fukagawa!"

As the first name was announced, the members applauded.

She walked over to the banana man and expressed some thoughts under the guidance of Shirakuto, and then the names of the other members of the second row, Yumi Wakatsuki, Masatsu Akimoto, Rina Ikoma, and Reika Sakurai, were read out one by one.

"No. 5 in the first row, Erika Ikuta!"

No. 1 Sayuri Matsumura, No. 4 Nanami Hashimoto.

Nana Hashimoto did not express some regrets and feelings about missing many activities due to injuries last year, and said that in the new year, she will change her face, work harder, and be worthy of the position she stands!

"Mai Shiraishi No. 2!"

"Is there anything you'd like to say?"

"This is the first single in 15 years, and everyone should change their mood and state to be able to work hard for a good work. ”

Mai Shiraishi and Hashimoto's attitudes are similar, they are both calmer and firmer.

Last year, the second wave of the Divine Comedy 8 single "It's Unrequited Love When I Perceive" was released, and the C position was replaced by Nanase Nishino, and at the same time, the concurrent announcement of the AKB Daiki Pavilion Festival Reina Matsui and Ikoma (after the graduation of Yuko Oshima in the general election, AKB officially began to enter the FLOP period), completely sounded the clarion call for the attack of the group, and the number of fans began to increase geometrically. At the end of the year, the third wave of Divine Comedy 10 singles "The First Degree of Blue Sky" was officially released, and the C position was replaced by Ikuta Erika, and 5 handshakes were added, and the sales volume finally exceeded 60W, firmly sitting on the third place in the O list of the whole year and the second place in 48G. In the end, the scandal led to the hatred of the red and white. "This paragraph is taken from Zhihu"

(In the Rotten Tomatoes incident, Yamato Rina, a student in the first phase of the group, was photographed drinking underage and hugging men on the side of the road for two consecutive months, and the agency announced her dismissal with an iron fist the day before yesterday, ending her 3-year idol career.) ）

This year is the most critical year for the group, and whether it can be on NHK TV's Red and White Song Meeting (Spring Festival Gala) depends on this year.

Therefore, the pressure on the C position of this order is very high.

"The Shiraishi photo album is selling well!" said Shirakutong exaggeratedly.

"Butt is beautiful!" Himura added solemnly, "yes, Watanabe-kun?"

"Ah———" Jun Watanabe didn't think of why he threw the topic to him, "It's good!"

He said somewhat perfunctorily.

The audience burst into laughter.

"That's a lot of talk about. ”

"Really?"

"I'm watching the news on the Internet. ”

Yuki Himura grabbed the ass and didn't let it go.

At this time, Ikoma Rina also stepped in, dancing excitedly.

"Mai Sheep's watery photo, the photo from here down———" she said as she stood up and gestured to her waist to her hips.

"There's a bath towel wrapped around it, but you can see it. ”

"Got this?"

"Yes, that's super beautiful!" Rina Ikoma emphasized.

"This is a hentai, isn't it?" Mai Shiraishi laughed herself.

"No, no, no, it's not the obscene aspect, it's the really beautiful aspect. Rina Ikoma explained.

"I don't know what you're talking about?" Shirakuto interrupted her, "Can Watanabe-kun understand?"

Jun Watanabe nodded, "Mai Yang's first photo album "Pure Adult" is still very fresh and beautiful. ”

"Cut!"

"Just pretend!"

Together, the banana people expressed their contempt for him.

When a man looks at a photo album, isn't it Oupai, Osiri and Long Legs? Otherwise, what else do you look at? clothing, styling, makeup, and scenery?

Fool whom?

"Butt is really warped!" Watanabe Jun added.

"Shh———h

The audience booed non-stop.

"In order to spread the name of Nogizaka even more, please come on!"

Shiraku relieved him of the siege in a unified sentence.

Mai Shiraishi sat in the second seat.

Then, it's time for the 11th row of centers in the first row.

"So, 11 singles, who is the center?"

"Nanase Nishino!"

Jun Watanabe shouted out the name without hesitation and very decisively.

(ps. Thank you for the support of "I love YYYYYYYY" and "Prison Bird Flying South".) ）
