PANEL QUESTIONS

– AKB48 Apocalypse/doomsday this was or was not?

– Do you believe that the sister groups were plundered for all they were worth? Was there equal value going back the other way?

– Any shocking moves? Were there some that didn’t make sense?

– Only one person goes to the jungle. Chikano Rina in JKT48? Will she be just as invisible as she is in AKB?

– Is the fact that Nogizaka was part of the reformation such a great social injustice that fans must go to these lengths? Is this a waste of time or do these people have any grounds for wasting valuable web space for a lost cause?

– Miyazawa Sae. Will she find a way to abandon SKE & bail back to Shanghai?
