Chapter 147: A 200 yen doll pendant
A few days later, the Wota of the AKB Theater found the capsule toy machines placed in front of the AKB Theater and inside the AKB Cafe. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The capsule toy puppets of the 24 active members of AKB48 in the capsule toy machine instantly attracted their attention.
Then, things get a little hard to control.
After more than four months of non-stop performances, AKB48 has left an indelible mark on the hearts of Akihabara's Wotas. By April 2005, AKB48 had a sizable number of Wota loyalists. We don't know exactly how many diehards were, but we can see the voting data for the first underground single of AKB48 on 2CH released in early April.
"Cherry Blossom Petals", which came in first, received 3,371 votes.
That's just the number of votes for "Cherry Blossom Petals", which came in first, and not counting the votes for the other thirteen songs in the AKB48A1 performance.
For these Wota diehards, it is a pity that AKB48, which has been debuting in theaters for four months, has no related merchandise.
Even fighting monsters and leveling up is good with equipment and money.
AKB48 as a cultivation object actually has no peripherals, are you preparing for the rhythm of my cultivation object starving to death?
If you can't add red, you should at least be able to add blue!
Didn't Yu-san announce the merchandise plan for AKB48 at the Christmas special performance? It's been so long, and even the formula photos have been published for so long, is it so difficult to release the peripherals? Is it really that hard?
Is it really that hard to write about birth or something?
I held back several anger values, and they were all about to go berserk, and they were all about to go berserk.
And just when the Wota were full of anger, they couldn't wait for the surroundings on the left, and they couldn't wait for the underground single on the right, the capsule toy machine was born.
As the first peripheral product of AKB48, AKB48 mobile phone pendant doll appeared in the form of a doll in the capsule toy machine.
Whew~The anger of the Wota is instantly released.
In terms of gacha culture, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is part of the Japanese otaku culture.
This is mainly because a large part of Wota has a collector's habit, and of course, another kind of collector's habit is the collector's habit.
The gacha culture, which was born in the United States, has flourished in Japan, and it is because of this habit that it was born.
Now AKB48 is using the gacha culture as a carrier, step by step to get closer to the world that belongs to Wota, which makes AKB48's Wota diehards how can they not be excited!
For 200 yen at a time, you can get an AKB48 doll at a time: a rather elaborate mobile phone pendant.
Yes, it's 200 yen per time.
For 200 yen, you will have a chance to get a mobile phone pendant of the members you push!
Then, the Wota simply "rioted".
The statement of "riot" is a bit exaggerated, but Wota's siege of the eighth floor of Don Quijote Mall and the blockage of AKB Theater Passage and AKB Cafe is true.
If the anger value that has been accumulated for a long time does not explode at this moment, when will it be?
The angry Wota boy occupies a capsule toy machine and keeps twisting, twisting, and continuing to twist.
If it weren't for the presence of AKB staff to maintain order at the scene, I am afraid that such a situation would have happened with a direct assault!
Twenty gacha machines, 50 sets of AKB48 member dolls, a total of 1,200 gacha, all sold out in one night.
However, the Wota are surrounding the empty capsule toy machine, and they are unwilling to leave no matter what.
Are you kidding? Is this a joke?
It's hard to wait until the periphery is on sale, and it's still so exquisite, such a cute doll pendant, it's only 200 yen, it's only 200 yen, and it's sold out before it's your turn.
Xike Show ~ Xike Show ~
You should throw out that bastard who occupies the capsule toy machine as a local tyrant, throw it out!
Although the Wota people were indignant that the AKB operators would put in new gacha so that they could continue their unfinished purchases, unfortunately, the AKB operators announced that the first batch of gacha was only so many, and the new gacha would continue to be released the next day.
As a result of this announcement by the AKB operators, a large group of Wota queued up directly outside the don Quijote mall overnight.
Not only the Wota who didn't have their turn to gacha, but even Wota, who already had multiple dolls hanging pendants in his hands and was completely unpresentable, lined up overnight.
If you don't have a set, how dare you go out and tell others that you're a die-hard fan of AKB48?
After the daily performance, the girls who turned from the back door to the front door and prepared to leave from Akihabara Station were completely startled by the crowd outside the Don Quijote Mall.
What's going on here?
After asking, they learned that the puppet pendant with their image was officially sold to the outside world today.
What the?
A puppet pendant of your own imagination?
Why don't they know anything?
At the same time, the puppet trade began to appear in Akihabara in the dark night.
"Who has more MaiMai pendants, who has more MaiMai pendants, I'll exchange the pendants of Sister Bu, Cindy, and A-chan!"
"Who has Takamina's pendant? I have a lot of Mi-chan pendants here, two for one, two for one! ”
"Who has Kojiharu's pendant? Who has Kojiharu's pendant? ”
A large number of voices began to sound.
At the same time as there was an overnight queue outside Don Quijote Mall, on 2CH, the house began to appear again!
……
"Wow~ MaiMai's little doll is so cute! Inner~inner~ Where is this bought? ”
"It's right outside the AKB Theater. It's really squeezing me to death, but unfortunately, I didn't have a complete set. "This is a message that belongs to a certain house tyrant pulling hatred.,This house tyrant has posted a total of thirty puppet pendants.,It's just MaiMai's puppet pendant.,This is the only one among the thirty puppet pendants.。
"Huh? As for AKB merchandise, is it going on sale today? ”
"Hmm~Hmm~ I also found out when I arrived at the AKB theater today. If it weren't for the fact that I didn't bring enough money, I would have collected it all today, no matter what. The bastard operator, if you release merchandise, you don't know if you give a day in advance. No, I'm going to Akihabara tomorrow! ”
"Arnold ~ Is your doll pendant transferred?"
"Trade other puppet pendants for them!"
……
This is the age of barter, want to buy with money? No way.
