aaaand, just 5 tickets to show for this year. shows were definitely harder to win as new members started pouring in and actually resulted in good sales for akb48. i am happy for them, and although that meant i had less chances to see theater shows, so be it.
with the graduation apocalypse over, i guess, the new members are performing well. even the choice of their 19th gen members are for me on point. not that the previous members were not though. err... yeah. its hard to enter these types of conversations as these will definitely only end in a fight so.. next topic..
the new looming threat is this "renewal" of the theater. i really don't know what's going to happen, and frankly, i am scared as hell. will we lose the theater that we have known for almost 2 (on___) decades? i hope not, but graduate members showing up and signing walls just feels like it. i have taken pics and taken all the remembrance that i think i need for now. i just hope that when i write my anniv post next year, i won't be saying that i miss the theater and they destroyed everything, just as they had thrown away our mvp plates without any warning whatsoever.
spent my afternoon and evening in akihabara just to feel somehow close to the theater. other than that, i think i don't really have much to say. i hope i have more good news next year. * crosses fingers *
