Oh! Your package got mailed out yesterday. But at your fast rate of downloading and viewing... they may be old by the time they get to you on Thursday.

BTW, my buddy Alienpyon from H!O came back from Japan today. In 10 days he saw 2 Morning Musume concerts and 1 AKB48 concert. :bonk:


If your friend from H!O can provide any AKB48 concert info, or any info on how to find the building, where to find any AKB48 merchandise, that would be extremely great and helpful. :bow:

Wow!, he/she is sure lucky to see them in concert, and yea, MM too. watched their latest PV, perf....i like it!!
can't wait to see anything new on AKB48.

super thanks! :bow: :bow:

not sure if i will d/l the other stuff, since it'll be on the discs already.

I am sure you are getting ready for your flight out on Thurs. Anyhow, i will probably not get the scans up on this thread before you head out, so..if i don't chat with you before then, have a good trip, ttyl laters.

i was flipping thru some of my UTB mag's and other gravure mags, and saw more of AKB48, will try to get some pix up on here sometime. :applaud: :victory:

Great! Will check your new ones in a couple days!

Almost ready to go here. About 10 more hours and it's off to the airport.

Hey, are you friends with Alienpyon at H!O ? He just came back from Japan and attended two MM concerts and one AKB48 concert. He's the cool guy that's been sending me all the fantastic AKB48 material. He says it's quite tricky to see AKB48 in their theater. But he has a point-by-point checklist of what to do. You might want to give him a PM regarding attending an AKB48 concert. It's well worth the effort.

OK! Will post next time from Kobe. :bonk:

Have a good rest of the week! :woot:

Thanks for the info, i will send Alienpyon at H!O a PM about AKB48, and directions to their theater, and store...i hope they sell AKB48 stuff there,
have a good flight to Kobe. :applaud:

Great pictures! Rina-chan is so great. What a pretty face and great voice. Plus, she`s got the right attitude.

will try to put up more, but i am having computer issues, dealing with a virus that has made accessing my desktop virtually impossible...not sure if you can answer some questions about computers.

i will send you a PM, meanwhile, i am frantically wondering if i have lost all my AKB48 vid's...
thanks to your disc, i have some of their concerts still. :sweat: :sweat: :sweat:
15 Apr 2007, 11:52 #110
update, still dealing with my computer problem, but i am able to access the desktop, but only in Safe mode. I am however, able to use Nero, and back up some data onto dvd, and saved my ai-chan and AKB48 videos, pix, thankfully. Still backing up data. I will probably be reinstalling windows, so i will lose some files, my guess not much.

once this is behind me, i will continue with my AKB48 pix posting, i found a bunch to post, stay tuned.
15 Apr 2007, 16:21 #111
ok, back up and running again, smoothly.

i should be able to post some more AKB48 pictures soon, stay tuned. :applaud:

Good to hear your machine is back up! Hope you didn't lose anything.

Today has been a great day. We went to Sannomiya. Picked up the three Team A DVDs and by chance was there on the same day AKB48 put out a new single. The clerk asked which one do I want. The CD cover looked better but the CD/DVD version of course had the DVD. So, the CD/DVD was purchased. A good choice. The other cover came with this version and on the back was stickers of all the girls.

Also picked up Kamei Eri's latest PB and the new UTB magazine. Then stopped off at 7-11 on the way home to get a six pack of Yebisu Black tall-boys.

sounds like you had a good productive day in getting your goods..on AKB and H!P.
nice purchases on the dvd-cd's...and Eri's latest PB. ah...the new UTB is out, and in Japan!, i'll have to wait awhile before i get it, unless it is the same issue with Saki Aibu on the cover, cause it comes out once every two months..issue.
any other AKB items you found? photos? etc?
have fun while in Japan, and let us know what you find/see and if you catch AKB in concert....:bonk:

btw: the computer is back up and running fine again, didn't lose hardly anything, and i backed up my AKB stuff onto dvd...:applaud:

Good job on backing up your good stuff!

It is the same UTB you have. What a magazine. That was the first time to see it. :bonk:

We're not going to head up to Tokyo this trip. No AKB48 concert this time. And all the shopping is pretty much done. Half of the money for souvenirs has been sent. Saving the other half for Saturday's MM concert. Maybe they'll have better merchandise there than at the H!P shop.

Man, those AKB48 DVD's look like they have nice booklets in them. But kind of reluctant to open them now since they won't be watched. Nobody here seems to like AKB48. In fact, they thought it was kind of weird buying all the stuff. Nobody wants to even look at it. :sweat: :hehe:

cool...your MM concert is next week, eh?
I figured that MM/H!P is much more popular than AKB, also since they have been out since 1998, i think. But what i am surprised is that nobody likes AKB, over in Japan? say it isn't so?! They should expand their merchandise list at AKB, more like H!P as their popularity grows, hopefully... :fingerscrossed:
ok, have fun, and keep us all posted on your travels. :victory:

No! AKB48 is huge in Japan. Every time a new stack of their just released CD is put out on the shelf, it's gone quickly. There's just not a lot of AKB48 fans here at K's parents house. :hehe:

MM concert is this Saturday. :bonk:

then i am not sure if there will be any AKB cd's left when i come....maybe not the brand new releases, if they release one in July. but glad to hear they are popular in Japan!

coolness, MM concert coming up for you...have fun! tell me all about it, and what goodies you get for yourself, have loads of fun!!!!

today i brought in the cd-booklet (aruiteru)to show some of my co-workers, introduced them to what MM is all about...many agreed that my favorite is one of the cutest...love my Ai-chan!

Haha! It's great to bring stuff into to work. :woot:

The big stores seem to have ordered enough of everything and even have the older releases. A lot of the smaller stores seem to only have the latest but not right away.

We have to go back to Sannomiya before next Tuesday. If there's any cash left, it'd be cool to get the AKB Shuffle Version DVD. But man, that was expensive. The three Team A Stage DVDs were only 3990 Yen each. But the Shuffle Version DVD is 6000 Yen. It's worth it though.
