| Atsuko Maeda x Armani |
Legendary former member of AKB48, Atsuko Maeda (aka Acchan) was featured in a campaign for Armani and featured by Tokyo Visionaries a month ago. And if you know me by now, I've become a die-hard fan of AKB48, as seen in my J-Pop dances that are stemmed only from them. I usually feature J-Pop posts on a Saturday, so here's my J-Pop girl crush!
It's the day after Halloween 2015 and I still love this song, Halloween Night by AKB48! If you haven't seen it yet, I've actually gone and uploaded two different versions of the songs already (Club Lollipop and my solo). But this is the project that I've been looking forward to! We've gotten costumes for it and everything. And this was actually filmed more than a month ago, but due to external factors, Gabby (my sister who did the song cover) couldn't record asap and we only filmed her singing part right after our school's Monster Ball the other day!
Woo! My own version to AKB48's HALLOWEEN NIGHT is up!

So here's the second video we shot while we were at Vegas the other week!
I know I haven't been posting up so much because I'm currently on vacation in the Philippines... my exact whereabouts at the moment? The same place you see this video! We literally filmed this video hours and just uploaded it to youtube! We are currently at The Oriental Legazpi. We specifically booked this place because of it's glorious view of the majestic Mayon Volcano, our hometown Legazpi, and what should have been the hotel's infinity pool. Unfortunately there were a bit of people using the pool and lacked space at that area, so we settled for the area in the video. You can kinda still see the pool, but thankfully Mayon was there to be the star of the show! We are checking out in a few hours, so I intend to make this post quick....so I can enjoy the rest of the day. I will post up my review about this staycation soon. The pocket wifi I purchased was terrible and I am thankful that The Oriental's wifi made it so easy to upload this!
Initially, we picked this piece to cover because it is a very nice song by AKB48 along with the choreography that makes us motivated and feel strong. Another big reason is that the center of the song, Takahashi Minami aka Takamina, who is not only an original member and the General Manager of the group... is graduating this year! As sad and heartbroken we are to see one of our favorites leave the group, this is showing our support to her. I love you, Takamina!!!!
We hope to be seen in J-Pop Summit 2015 Festival's ODOTTEMITA Dance Contest for the group division! Check out my solo entry and our recent K-Pop dance cover here! Please do like, comment and even subscribe if we entertained you! Teehee!

| AKB48 Team Surprise (2014) |
If you haven't noticed yet, I've obviously been going crazy over Japanese pop!
I've been obessesing over Kpop too much over the years that I, sadly, overlooked other pop music fandoms. I'm glad I found AKB48, I had no idea how big and awesome they were! But better late than never, I am in looooooove!
So AKB48, is a girl group with a lot of members, divisions into groups (Group A, Group K, Group B, Group 4, & Group 8), sister groups (SKE48, NMB48, JKT48, HKT48 which depends on their prefecture), and trainees of each of the girl groups. That's a lot of girls! Plus, they're the idols you can meet! Not like the high and mighty Kpop stars, these girls are more reachable! Anyways, out of all their girls, they plucked out the best or most wanted to form "Team Surprise"!

It was only this year that I came to be a super fan of AKB48! Yeah, I know... really late considering most of the "KANI 7" a.k.a top of the top girls of the group already graduated (Noooo! Acchan, Tomochin, Mariko, and just recently Yukoooooo!). I used to only be a hardcore K-POP fan, but I have grown tired of it. The overly sexy and perfect concepts has bore me... so when AKB48 was fully introduced to me, I fell in love with the imperfection, the cutesy concept, the importance of charisma, and the need to work hard in order to become center nova!!!
