Chapter 473: Rising HKT48!

When Kagawa Yu saw this scene, he felt a little emotion in his heart, and it seemed that all fans were full of expectations for the girl he supported and liked.

When the lights dimmed, fans knew that this year's general election was about to begin, and Mai Oshima, Tomomi Itano, Yasusu Akimoto, Atsuko Maeda, and Hazuha Kagawa, who were in the live broadcast room, also started the live broadcast.

"Welcome to this year's AKB48 general election, for the general election of several guests and myself can be said to be very frank understanding, first of all, let's introduce the guests in the live broadcast room today."

After Mai Oshima's brief opening remarks, Yasuya Akimoto, Hazuha Kagawa, Atsuko Maeda, and Tomomi Itano were introduced successively.

"Mr. Akimoto-san, you have established the AKB48 general election system, and the general election has become one of the most influential events in the entertainment industry in the past few years, what are your expectations for this year's general election?"

"I said maimai, you didn't ask this question well, I suspect that you deliberately released water on Akimoto-san." After Mai Oshima asked, Kagawa Yu couldn't help but complain.

"Kagawa-sensei, what kind of question do you think I should ask?" Mai Oshima asked.

"You should ask Akimoto-san how much hard-earned money his fans have earned through the general election in recent years."

The two girls, Atsuko Maeda and Tomomi Itano, laughed when they heard this, and Yasuya Akimoto smiled inscrutablely

In the gymnasium, the performance for the start of the general election has ended, and the members of AKB48, SKE48, HKT48, and NMB48 have appeared one after another, and after all the girls have taken their seats, Kazuo Tokumitsu and Ayako Kisa have started the general election votes. The first is the members ranked 64th to 49th.

The 64th member who entered the circle is SKE48's Yuka Nakanishi, who has more than 11,000 votes. Compared to Mika Komori, who ranked 64th last year, the number of votes has doubled.

The 63rd member is also a member of SKE48. This year, he is only 18 years old. The 62nd member is Natsumi Hirashima, who has graduated, and when Kazuo Tokumitsu called out the girl's name, there was a very warm applause from the audience. Atsuko Maeda, Tomomi Itano, and Mai Oshima in the live broadcast room were also a little excited.

"Actually, Akimoto-san very much hopes that Maimai and Maeda will also participate in the general election, but I think the choices of the two girls are very correct." Kagawa Yu said suddenly.

"I want to hear about it." Yasuya Akimoto took a deep look at Kagawa Yu.

"I think that sometimes since you have already chosen to graduate, you should follow your own path cleanly and believe in the abilities of the younger members. They can't be allowed to hide behind their predecessors forever. “

Akimoto Yasushi was thoughtful when he heard this.

Other members who entered the circle included Saki Matsui in 61st, Asaga Sakura in 60th, Suzuran Yamauchi in 59th, Anka Isohara in 58th, Misaki Iwasa in 57th, Meiru Tajima in 56th, Mayu Ogasawara in 55th, Ami Maeda in 54th, Sumire Sato in 53rd, Ayaka Kikuchi in 52nd, Akari Yoshida in 51st, Mina Oba in 50th, and Asami Kobayashi in 49th.

The most eye-catching in this list is HKT48's two little Lori Asami Sakura and Tajima Yaru, both of whom are still graduate students, and they are graduate students of the local group, and they have entered the circle of the general election for the first time, beating many of their predecessors. Fans and viewers who don't generally follow HKT48 may feel unfamiliar with these two little guys.

Live room

"16 people are self-respecting, SKE48 has 6 members, HKT48 has 2, and NMB48 has two. There are only six AKB48 graduates and students in total, regardless of the ranking, in terms of quantity. SKE48 I can already stand shoulder to shoulder with AKB48. HKT48's two little Loli entered the circle at a young age, and it is likely that they will become frequent visitors to the general election in the future. Perhaps it won't take a year for HKE48 to catch up with AKB48. Kagawa Yu quickly analyzed the situation of the 16-person list, and he didn't say one thing, that is, the members of AKB48 who entered the circle this time are basically some old face members, and they will be eliminated soon. The growth rate of the younger members of AKB48 is far behind that of HKT48.

"HKT48's progress in this year is indeed a bit of Chaohu imagination, and the potential of this group of girls has also surpassed the contemporaries of AKB48, SKE48 and NMB48, but the quality of the 15th class members is also very good. When they rise, they may not lose to HKT48. Itano Tomomi said suddenly. Seeing the junior members of AKB48 being suppressed by the members of HKT48 and SKE48/NMB48, the girl's heart was very unhappy. More or less, I also hate iron and steel.

"Do you still have anything to look forward to for AKB48? Don't just get frustrated so quickly. There will be times when you will be depressed. Kagawa Yu smiled, and the two girls, Atsuko Maeda and Tomomi Itano, immediately rolled their eyes in protest.

After the members finished their testimonials, the results continued.

The 48th-ranked member is Haruka Ishida, and the 47th-ranked member is Muto Jumon, who had an amazing performance last year, and her promotion this year seems to be a bit decent compared to last year.

The members in 46th place are Kaede Yakura of NMB48, Aika Tada of HKT48 in 45th, Makiko Saito of SKE48 in 44th, Reina Matsui in 43rd SKE48, Kamisi Uenishi of NMB48 in 42nd, Madoka Umemoto in 41st SKE48, Yuka Tanno in 40th AKB48, and Haruka Kodama in 39th HKT48.

When I heard that Haruka Kodama was only in 39th place. Kagawa Yu's brows furrowed slightly, Kodama Haruka's ranking has improved a lot compared to last year, but in Kagawa Yu's opinion, this improvement is not enough. As HKT48's ACE, if it can't quickly occupy a strong ranking in the front of the two general elections, then there will be basically no breakthrough in the back.

Asuka Kuramochi ranked 38th, Maria Nagao 37th, Yoka Katayama 36th, Amina Sato 35th, and Rina Fujie 34th. The 33rd member is Chihiro Anai of HKT48. (To be continued.) )
