Miyuki: “Hand-shaking is 1000 yen each time, right?  The 1000 yen is money spent on something. So I want to give them back something, an experience, that is worth more than 1000 yen.  To me that’s what it means to be an idol”

Hi, I am quite disappointed with the ranking outcome, why is it sasshi? I thought she had scandals before? Why is she still so popular like yukirin?

Hey anon!You’re not the only one being disappointed, believe me xDOk, well.. there are two things that we can sway about this situation:

Sasshi wotas have a lot of money. And I pity them for spending all their saves for an election.. furthermore, I don’t think it’s everything decided by fans, but it’s also decided by management to make them win or not. I’m not saying that they are faking all results.. I’m saying they may have changed results by buying and voting to let the results move.At the end, what you see it’s not OUR decision but wotas and system decision.

As satoukun said, if we had only ONE vote each, results would be VEEEEERYYYY different ;) So don’t struggle yourselves, we couldn’t do anuthing.

Still, I repeat, Sasshi is funny but once she has been center, having her twice as center it’s not the same thing; I’m not surprised and not entertained anymore. I would have preferred Mayu as AKB face, she is the only one who can fit AKB center, not Sasshi, not Jurina, not Sakura, and most of all not Paruru.Sasshi could have won.. but that doesn’t mean anything :) At least.. Well, that’s my opinion!

I prefer Mayu as AKB face too. But I already don’t care about the center variations. This already lost relevance to me. then it can be any girl. seriously. 

And ssk is ssk. People can’t  get complaining of whom won because “She doesn’t combine with the center position”. Interesting, nobody complains about Janken, (only it is stolen). It isn’t as if sashi will be center  forever If it were to have a definitive center, I would vote in mayu.

Paruru looks like a center but different from mayu. but I do not care too. And I found offensive the way you referred to paru. Respects her fans.

And about sasshi fans, this is a rumour. Japanese are rich by nature xD. Thus, they aren’t rich, but a prosperous people(their acquisitive power is high). And singles aren’t so expensive. I think it’s questions of  number of fans(and a lot of fans of other members less famous, vote in  famous members. it has this question too). But it’s truth about  if each person could vote only one time, the results would be different.

I lol’d so hard at the first reply above. Management rigging the elections so Sasshi wins? Why? They have literally nothing to gain from that. Well… other than preventing someone who is most certainly NOT fit for the center position (a great solo entertainer and a budding actress, but a terrible center; an attractive face but not a representative person) from winning, I suppose. But I don’t really see them thinking that way. They also have nothing to gain from allowing Kaotan into Senbatsu, letting Paruru fall, etc. Janken is almost certainly rigged, but this? No. That would be the height of foolishness. 

And Sasshi wotas have a lot of money? Not any more than Yukirin and Mayu wotas, hah. What Sasshi does have going for her, is that she is the single obvious SSK candidate for all HKT fans (Sakura is strong but not quite there yet). SSK took place in their territory this year, so they had a lot to prove, and went the extra mile to ensure their candidate took the seat, and the results weren’t swung by anything unexpected, like last year’s 35k Chinese votes.

Also, Sasshi has a lot more going for her than simply being “funny”. She’s come a long way since her hetare-shtick days, and now she embodies everything the 48G aspires to be. She is a major part of HKT’s massive growth, and her victory is a victory for the fans and for the members. The same would have been true for Takamina or Sayanee, and perhaps Jurina.

And anyway, this election isn’t about the face of AKB, it’s about the face of the 48G. To a lesser extent, it could also be seen as a battle between groups, with which AKB’s split vote doesn’t help. Regardless, Yukirin and Mayu are still the highest ranking AKB members (that aren’t about to graduate), so they’ll retain prominent positions within their home group. Yui and Paruru thankfully didn’t fall too far, so they’ll stay in the spotlight as well, as they should.

I won’t speculate about what would happen if every fan had one vote each. The landscape would be drastically different, but for all we know Sasshi would still have won (again, much more pressure on HKT fans this year). 

All that written, like marxakuarius48 said, I don’t personally care much about who takes center. It’s all money politics. Sayanee wins the popular vote every HS sale anyway :P
