AKB48 Is Still The Best J-Idol Group Of All Time

The title is pretty extreme right? But for me, AKB48 is really the best J-Idol group of All Time for me. Even though my favorite generation in AKB has ended their legacy and impact still reigns in my Jpop fandom. You all know how I try to immerse myself in the Japanese language and that I'm continuously looking for new artists that I could listen to and maybe motivate me too, right? No matter how much I try, I still go back to AKB48. Their sound is familiar, giving me nostalgia and it makes me want to cry. lol Their music feels great, they are all impressive and maybe I'm reacting this way because I have great memories of this group in the past. Even though I've became outdated about them for a long time, as my fandom stilled into hiatus, my admiration towards them still sparks every time I listen to their song. 

Oshima Yuko Studying English

When I was MIA from writing, I've heard before that Oshima Yuko went on hiatus from her entertainment career around year 2017 as well. The reason behind was to strengthen her language skills. It was basically to study English. Now that's nice! I love idols/celebrities who are setting an inspiration in widening their knowledge. So now I know why some of Oshima's instagram captions were in English.

But of course just like any other language students out there, you just can't perfect the grammar yet in the beginning. It's a learning process so I'll give her 5 stars for the effort in posting in English. I hope she gets better day by day and won't be discouraged to keep on practicing. 

Oshima Yuko Instagram Account

I'll make her as an inspiration when it comes to studying Japanese. Come to think of it, I'm using that app to express whatever in mind in Japanese as well. Yes, I'm trying and practicing hard too.

Here are some of Oshima's posts with English captions:

Preparations for Maeda Atsuko's 22nd Brithday

Since I love Maeda Atsuko very much, I've decided to prepare something big for her birthday. I know some of you might think that it's still so fucking early  for that but you know, I'm a busy person and time flies by so fast when I'm working. So in order to do not let her special day pass by like any ordinary days, I'm preparing in a much earlier time.

So here are my plans... I hope some of you who are interested will participate to answer some questions and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Plan #1: Party!

Of course like any other birthday celebration, a food preparation for that will be granted. I shall be making my own party here at my house and well, I'll try to post it on my blog as well. That's for July 10 exactly. If you want to celebrate it with me then that's fine.. let's meet! :))) But heck that's a working day, maybe at night? XD

Plan #2: Gifts!

AtsuYuu Side by Side: 36th Japan Academy Awards

Today is really such a special day, after Jane Doe Fever + Atsu's New SoftBank CM earlier this afternoon we now have something for dinner. Yes, Atsuyuu's Japan Academy Awards. lol

Last year on the 35th JAA, Atsuko won the Popularity award for her role in Moshidora, and now for this year Yuko won the same award for her role in Yamikin Ushijima-kun. And yes, Atsu will be the one who'll present the award to Yuko.

So after being flood on my twitter and watching the coverage, I began to love AtsuYuu [for real? XD]
I did my best to resist this pairing tbh, but I can't anymore for they are adorable. So yes, please welcome me to this pairing. If you're going to ask about my love for atsumina, for god sake of course that won't change. I still ship Atsumina, and since they are too busy with their honeymoon privacy at the moment.. I will ship AtsuYuu to fill some gap to my heart when Atsumina's missing in action. XD

Here let me share to you some photos and video coverage of the event:



So first, the breath taking red-carpet...
