Ikoma Rina has announced her graduation from Nogizaka46. I first read rumors yesterday morning and had to wait for Japan to wake up in order to get the official announcement. Today’s link is straight from Ikoma herself. She’s moving on, but she’ll still do entertainment. I’m hoping that to see her have a stellar career.
Idol graduations are inevitable. They still are surprising though.
I’m posting this, but it is danger of becoming another dead YouTube video in my blog because of Japan. But I don’t care. You need Nanase in your life. I would like to have gifs made of some of these scenes. They are already gifs, but they need to be converted from YouTube video to a gif file. Off to find a gif maker!
Look it that. You’re lucky. It’s another Link of the Day to another idol. Enough with Sally. Here’s the real cutie: Nishino Nanase!
The Ace of Nogizaka46. The only member who can really make me leave Ikuchan and oshihen to. So in love with her.
Here she starred in a movie released last month. Let’s read about her because the more Nishino you get in your life the better.
Nanase is life.
Sally’s now available in the US iTunes store. You won’t have to get that account on the iTunes store Japan. But if you bought yesterday’s music then you already did. Sorry.
Anyhow, please buy in order to support bringing more cute Japanese idols to America. Or at least outside Japan.

More 天城サリー.
This time she says hi and takes one of my comments for a spin. Sally rulez.
It’s 天城サリー!
You have to watch this for a bit. She starts as a normal Japanese idol, but as minutes go by she transforms into an American! Just kind of awesome. I’m smitten. The twin tails helps. But that ghetto Sally makes it work.
Welp. Another September has come to an end and so has another NewsRadio Quote Month. I’m hoping some of those blog post titles were funny and brought a smile to your face. If they did (and if they didn’t), I hope you seek the show that it’s from. One of the best, underrated sitcoms from the ’90s.
Link of the Day [9.30.17]
They gave us Sally. #天城サリー 22/7
If you don’t know, then you don’t know.
It’s an idol anime group in which one of the members blew up fandom because she was born in America. Ans she sounds American. But the thing is that on her SHOWROOM you can really talk to her. In fact she answered my question which is the first time in any of the idol SHOWROOMs that I’ve watched that that happened. Because she understands English. Also, she’s cute AF.
Anyway, today’s link takes you to the group she’s a part of. Get to know them.
AKB48 opened there ticket booth to international fans. It’s not like I’m buying anytime soon, but it’s nice to know that you can at least try to get tickets. The mother ship, AKB Theatre, is probably a tough buy. I would try for one of the sister groups out in the sticks, perhaps NGT48’s or HKT48’s theaters in Niigita or Fukuoka respectively.
Maybe I’ll try on my trip to Japan…
It’s a 13 hour time difference between here and Japan. Here being the east coast of the United States. So you’ll have some Nogizaka goodness for breakfast as you watch two members promote their latest album on SHOWROOM. You just have to get up real early!
If you participate, don’t forget to throw some stars!!
And don’t forget to wish Nishino a happy birthday! 「お誕生日おめでとう西野七瀬！」
Nishino Nanase’s Instagram for outtakes and photos from her second photobook. Let’s just enjoy shall we?
