Voting is under way in this year’s AKB48 General Election. The preliminary results are out and there have been quite a few eyebrows raised at the way things have panned out thus far. Perhaps even the final rankings might not be as predictable as everyone thought they would be.

NSK 2D Club: Aku no Hana part 1

aku-no-hana

It’s been a while since the last show!

As we wrapped up discussion on both seasons of AKB0048 we wondered when we would come across an anime compelling enough for us to watch and discuss; then Aku no Hana happened, a show that we couldn’t shut up about.

In this episode we talk about the first six episodes of Aku no Hana, discussing the controversial art style, music, characters, story, our predictions and more! Note that this is a spoiler-cast, where we bring up and talk about key plot and character developments up to episode six. Also note that we all jumped into the show fresh, not having read the manga.

If you’ve been keeping up, or just don’t care about spoilers, jump right into our discussion! We would love to hear your opinions in the comments.

Regardless of your opinion, it can’t be denied that this week is packed with fantastic new music. Won’t you join me on this journey as we explore everything that this week has to offer?

“Haven’t slept in 48 hours” Edition.

Yeah yeah, this wasn’t posted on Friday I know. I’m a terrible person but I haven’t been sleeping much these past few days because reasons. Anyway, here we have this week’s NSKaption. Our subject for this week is SKE48 KKS Matsumura Kaori who appears to be mugging some poor old man in the photo above. That’s my take on it anyway, you should post yours in the comment section in the form of a caption. It’s this thing we do once a week just for fun.

If you find any good photos we can use for this feature, send the links in using the contact form, find me on IRC, Twitter, wherever. In return I’ll try not to keep forgetting to post these every Friday.

As always, we look forward to seeing what our community comes up with.

Yoshi got an iPhone not too long ago, so he’s been recording some interesting videos on the iOS app, Vine. Take a listen to his professional voiceovers for Watanabe Miyuki, Ichikawa Miori, and Hirata Rina.

What do you think? Do you like Yoshi’s voiceovers? Do you use Vine? What kind of Vine videos would you like to see? Let us know in the comments!
