This is one of my most favorite STU48 songs ever! It's such an iconic, wholesome, and incredible bop that's perfect for a celebratory summer season! I've been listening to it quite a lot this summer and it always fills my heart with joy. I think it's especially perfect for the fun festivities of today too. STU48 has such an impressive discography/catalogue. Aishiteru!!!! 😁🎉💞
Song: Yume Chikara by STU48. 🌊⛵💙
Yikes...😬
(Obviously I'm being unserious here. But ever since this whole Mei-Mei situation has happened I immediately thought of this scene from "Turning Red." I might delete this later though. 😂)
The official MV for Yukirin's new song titled『シアワセ記念日』has been released. Yukirin is so beautiful here and has such a gorgeous voice. This song is so beautiful and quite calming. It sort of reminds me of those sweet moments of growing up and going grocery shopping with my mom on Saturdays and Sundays. And getting various ingredients for tonight's dinner, etc. There's also a sense of familiarity and nostalgia in this song especially the piano part at the very beginning. I feel like I've heard this song before in my memory somewhere. Some elements of this song also sorta gives me sweet "Animal Crossing" vibes and even "Clannad" vibes too. Anyway, we love you so much Ms.Yukirin! We're all so happy & grateful that you're still around and continuing to make such beautiful art for the world to see and listen to ever since graduating. You are truly a one of a kind idol indeed. God Bless you Ms.Yukirin! Arigatou! 😌💐🌼💞
Oguri Yui: The current Ace of AKB48. 🌸
Kuranoo Narumi: The current General Manager of AKB48/48G. 🌸
Somehow it's oddly very fitting that these last two members from this single have still remained in the group to this day. 🌼🌻
Song: Pretend You're God by Miley Cyrus (Something Beautiful Album 2025). 🎶
Since it's been established that Mei-Mei is a spitting image of Mion, etc. Let's also acknowledge that 20th Gen Hinata Maruyama slightly resembles former legendary 6th Gen member Takajo Aki a bit. It's just that Hinata's eyes are slightly a bit larger than Aki's eyes. But it's almost uncanny how in certain angles or lighting Hinata's face can just kinda morph & resemble Aki's face for a moment. 😲
Honorable Mention: HKT48's Tanaka Natsumi also has an uncannily resemblance to Aki-chan too. 😯
No.1) Kit (Kitsunami) the Fennec Fox (Sonic IDW) 🩵
No.2) Kit Bodega (Gameoverse) 💛
No.3) Kit Kittredge (American Girl Historical Doll/Character from the 1930s Great Depression Era) 💜
It's so interesting how there's so many characters out there named "Kit." 🤔
I love all the traditional Japanese historical cultural aesthetics & designs in this MV. All the legendary members here are absolutely gorgeous & each with their own unique visual beauty and charm. They really channeled their ancestoral roots with this artistic MV and perfectly paid tribute to the ancient world of the Edo Period. Major props to the director of this MV for coming up with such an artistic concept for this MV. And really taking a chance on using a concept like this for a legendary mainstream idol group like AKB48. The music/song itself is also no exception either & sounds like a soothing ancient traditional Japanese lullaby. Overall, this is by far one of the best things to ever come out of AKB48 and Team A. Also, having Mayuyu & Chiyuu as members of Team A will forever be a luxurious fever dream (in the best way possible of course) that will never ever happen again. 🌸👘🍒💞😌
Wow! I love Ms.Kurunrun's (Suzuki Kururmi's) beautiful graduation gown here. She looks like a beautiful princess from a story book here. I love that this dress was able to incorporate the design of the ishous that the other 16th Gens were wearing. Ms.Shinobu is constantly working her incredible magic as usual. That shade of purple is truly breathtaking. We're all going to miss you Kururun-chan! DH did not deserve you at all! But thank you for all your help in shaping AKB48 & bringing it into the new era as a legendary 16th Gen. Thank you for all your hard work Ms.Kurunrun! And I wish you all the best in life as you embark on this next chapter. Sotsugyou Omedetou Kurunrun! 💜👸🏻🌸
This video is when Mii-chan just reached Kenkyuusei status & would eventually become a great mentor for the younger generations at the time. Mii-chan looks so young here. You'll always be a living legend Mii-chan! So proud to have you as one of my top Oshi's. She's truly come so very far since her AKB48 days. God bless you Mii-chan! 😌👸🏻💞

(I'm not quite sure when & what year this video takes place. Possibly 2018/2019 but I can't be certain. I vaguely remember that there was a vlogging series that Mayuyu did years ago where she was vlogging herself visiting various different places. Maybe this little clip was from that??? I'm not sure tho but it's still really wholesome and adorable & Mayuyu is as gorgeous as ever. We love & miss you Mayuyu! Aloha! 🌺)
Yukirin and Sasshi's impacts are truly undeniable and can still be felt to this day. We're all going to miss you Miion-san...Sotsugyou Omedetou...🥹🌸💞
