Sigh, if Santaettes look like that in Japan it's time to move, sigh again....
Hmmmm, forget their names but remember these two Kris Kringles from yesteryears????
Not a huge post though there are some fine looking pics as once again Nogi picks up an award. But not the ultimate prestigious one as no member finished #1 on Nao's top twenty list.... timeout(!), it appears two more long departed members are paying us a visit....
To me honest don't know much about it but think 'Line Live' is a Google app, did a quick check but didn't look at many of the details. Seems to be some sort of video app where you can check things out on your smartphones and perhaps also download certain items, someone can give us more details if they wish as my rotary phone doesn't have access to those kinds of sites.
In the 'Promotional Category' Nogi won the award for having the most views and downloads for their very successful "Asahinagu" film that came out in September. Just three members were in attendance at the ceremony and it's not the usual trio we're used to seeing lately. Sayuri was there and it's the third time this week she's been featured in a post, first two were solo ones.
Also there was Nogi Captain Reika and she really looks oki doki to the max in these pics or should I say more than ever. Third member on hand was Erika who we've finally been seeing more of lately which is such a positive, also on hand was Tomita who had a big role in the film. For you Erika fans in exactly one month from today she'll be celebrating her 21st birthday, doesn't it seem like she should be older than that?
Plenty of superb pics from the event which took place on December 21st, following them is a short video of the ceremony and let's hope it remains on YT. First pic features a pair of members from the J-Pop group E-Girls who won an award, perhaps I should start checking them out more closely.
After little research(coz I'm bored af), Line Live is basically SHOWROOM with a few extra touches such as filters(the puppy, rabbit ear thingy) during a livestream but this time the livestreams are saved so if ya miss it then don't be a sook, it'll be there in an archive(Dunno if there's a time limit tho). Ya can tell them how much ya love em, throw em a like(About 24,000 views with about 5mil likes🤔 looks like you can spam it, post-stream as well, saw the likes going up during then) and send gifts that are available on their stream(costs 💰 tho by the looks of it and maybe likes so that might explain the 5mil). Looks like they got their own currency called 'LIVEコイン'(LIVEcoin), dunno how the conversion works but the lowest I saw was a '3コイン' and highest being a '10,000コイン'. Saw a heart above it so '3 💗, 3コイン' etc, so 1 like may equal to 1コイン and if ya cbf to spam 10,000 likes, just cheat ya way by buying your way to it. Saw Nagashima Seira, Sakurai Hinako and Ogura Yui doing streams so far, never seen them do a SHOWROOM before so perhaps there may be more celebs on the app. Video is shot in vertical coz of ya phone, take it in however ya want. Yeah that's bout it, that's all I could see about it without downloading the app. I need a drink
ReplyDeleteI need more than one drink after reading that, think I just heard the Iron City beer trucks pull up. Don't know how much the 10,000 is in real currency or if it does refer to money, really everything these days tries to squeeze every last cent from Idol fans....
ReplyDeleteIKR!! oh boy I need more than beer for this. The fact that there are different versions of CDs with the main difference being an exclusive song in each of them is like "woah hold up son, ya want me to pay another full price for that extra song brah?". Works like a charm tho, gotta give em that. Seeing articles of ppl buying a ton of CDs is like "dayum son". K46 got the fanclub thing with a monthly contribution of 432yen($3.81 US, basically $5 AUS) for some behind the scenes shots, something about tickets and manager diary. Then ya got the 'Keyaki Message' which ya get for ya phone and ya gotta pay to follow a member. It's basically a more advanced version of their blogs where they upload pics and write messages(seems like there are audio messages too) but the extra bit is videos(There's a video with Mizuho doing something, only a screenshot was shown on Fuyuka's blog but it looks like Mizuho did something cool and well I like Mizuho but can't see it coz cbf paying for it and my brick of a phone doesn't seem to help). Apparently it's 300yen($2.64 US...$3.43 AUS) for each member so y'know, if ya wanna follow more than one member then get ya get ready to give em your lunch money son! So quick mafs,
ReplyDelete1 member = 300yen. 300yen = a sausage roll! Sausage roll = Delicacy
21 Kanji x 300yen = 6,300yen ($55.62 US, $72.14 AUS)
20 Hira x 300yen = 6,000yen ($52.98 US, $68.70 AUS)
41 members = 12,300yen ($108.61 US, $140.83 AUS! this is bollocks!)
...yeah that's about it. Oh yeah it's a monthly contribution btw so I'll leave ya to do the maths. Gotta catch up on a Mizuho SHOWROOM I missed out on so 🍺 Cheers
