===================================

Hello, Guys!!!

Great! We got next post published!

So, what did you do this past days?  What a week for me, with searching Aeri everywhere. At least I found her in one of her hiding places. Doing what? I honestly didn't want to know... I told her to "appear" in this post, but where the hell is she now? (Here! Here! I'm here!) Yeah, yeah! Stop bouncing! Where were you? I think you owe everyone your whereabouts for the last post! (Oh, yes! I'm so sorry, guys. I have some "event" I need to attend. And it's real good event. I will post about them as the repay for my absent. That's if Crysta here allow me to. I know she has real bad mood swings so I will go as she say. So, what do you think Crysta?) Che! Just do whatever you want. This blog made by two of us, so you have your own share to post. I do want to know what did you do anyway. And for your information, I don't have any mood swings. (Yeeyyy! Good, then! I will post it as the next! Thanks, Crysta. And yeah, you actually have those mood swings. The proof is you awfully kind today. What's bring it? I can't even see your scowl. Hehe...) I don't know if you want to be whacked in your head or what, but don't you think it's nice if I'm in a good mood for once in a while? Urgh... You are so... so... annoying! Why do I befriend you again? (Because you can't resist me? Hehe... Ok, ok... Don't be mad. Just go back to your expressionless facade. At least you are not fuming. [facepalmed])

Alright, forget about her. Now, on to the topic. About Idol Group.

Most of you maybe already heard about them. They are most specialized in Japan. I don't know what you are thinking when you hear about them. But for me, the image that appeared in my head is GIRLS... A LOT of them. What they do in those image? Singing, dancing, talking, or heck, having some bizarre stunts! And they are in such an order that could amazed you. Oh, and God forbid, a Really REAL SHORT SKIRTS... (Are you having some problems with a short skirt?! It's not that bad. It's CUTE! What's with you and skirt in general?) Me? I don't have problems with them. You saw me wear it on some occasions, right? It's just... I don't know, really. When you see a... What's the term? "MOE"... Yeah, that's... When you see a girl with a really girly posture wearing them plus the frilly things, I felt an overwhelming Pheromones circling around. And sometimes it makes me shudder without any reason. And you could sense the growing mad and pains coming from a miles away. Guess from where? A bunch of guys! They could practically stomped on you! (You know, It's normal. That's the purpose of the Idol Group existence. To entertain. Why the heck you are shuddering? You are really weird.) So, are you fine with them stomping and screaming on you? (No! It's not like that, you frizzy head! It's normal because they are a bunch of fans. It's just like some group of fangirl whose fangirling over their male idols. This case is like the opposite. With male fans going over head with their female idols. And actually I'm one of the fans, too... I like some of the Idol Groups... Are you not?) Ck! At least, I'm not obsessed with them like you.

So, how do we know about this culture anyway? I know about them from magazine mostly, when I was still in high school. Some of my friends went around talking about some K-Pop (Korean-Pop) that was just booming while I stayed in my cave site at that time. Instead of going with the trend, I keep my head in anime alike and some Japanase rock band. One day, I found some cool magazine and they were worked through a cool systems of entertainment, namely Idol Groups. They were talking about MORNING MUSUME...

They were quite well-known at that time. Aeri even have this really big poster of them in her room. Well, before the renovation though. (Oh, don't remind me about that. It's just so... regrettable. I really excited that I could got those posters and eventually forgot about the yearly renovation of my house. It's bring back bad memories.) You should have been paying attention to what customs your family doing every year. I don't know what's wrong with your head sometimes. Oh, well, just go back to the story. I don't really know about them. Just heard some of the songs and that's it. Never think about them much.

The first time I thought more about the Idol Group was when Aeri like shouting in my ears about some cool audition for a "girl-singer" who could dance and have a "good body proportion". When I asked if she want to participate, she answered no, so I automatically shut her up. But, she was just goin' on and on about them that it was stuck in my head somehow. (Hey! It's really cool, you know. They made a "branch" in our country. It was so new that made me so excited. I never want to join up, ok? But, what's wrong with some excitement? And I thought maybe our little cousin want to sign up instead. She has a really good voice and very pretty from head to toe.) Is that mean that you are bragging over the others? (Umm... Well, yeah... I don't know. The Japanese one is so cool, so maybe their branch here wouldn't be so bad...)

Anyway, what we're talking about is JKT48 audition in capital city. Actually, I ignored them most of the time. But, I started stop ignoring them when Aeri literally dragged me to her event in like more than two years ago. We saw a stand or booth that "talked" about them, the AKB48 and their "sisters". It was turned out that they are the fans of them. They kindly explain to me what they are, the term of Idol Group, what they do, and so on. So, here we are, talking about them while Aeri "lusting" over them... (Hey!!! I'm NOT lusting over them! I'm a GIRL!!!) Whatever you say...

I bet you ever heard about them, right? If not, oh, well, I don't know where were you in this world since they are like... so famous... at least among the boys in my place.

So, what we know about them? So much, actually. But, just one word, they are Enormous, with total more than a hundred members. They are one of the Idol Group out there. They have their own entertainment-like-foundation. They have their own song and dance. They have their own Theater to perform, wearing some costumes. What I mean is a really girly costumes. Sometimes, a really provocative one. The other times, a really bizarre one. The theater even has a routine schedule. The spectator mostly consist of boys with a handful of girls. They finance themselves with such an entertaining way, too. Well, beside the obvious. Like selling photo's of the member, some merchandises, or another goodies. But, the best-seller one beside the photos maybe this glowing stick, they called them "LIGHT-STICK or LS". And here I remember a really snarky comment of Tony Stark from Avenger movie about "the glow-stick of destiny". That was the thing that always used by their own fans. Yeah, they have their own fans, called WOTA. The fans even made some chant to prove their support and to give some cheering gestures to their idols. What they do with those sticks? Well, some of them will do this dancing, called "WOTAGEI".

Oh, they are great, ok? They have their own big show. They even have those "ELECTION" to choose who is the best among the members. This is where the fans mostly involved. They bought their "things" and have those tickets to vote. And they also have a hand-shake event gradually in time. I admit, they did a good job to get "a little closer" to the fans. It's attract people.

Not just that, they have their own TV Shows. You know what the TV Shows do, right? Dramas, games, a lot of laughs and cries. Well, like that. The point is to entertain you... Heck... They even have their member's Graduation in a spectacular way. If you consider the tears of fans in the size of the river and letters or presents to the said members in the size of a mountain, sorry for the exaggeration, well, you will thought about it as too much. That's for me... (I don't think it's too much, though. It was the way of the fans to show their idols that they will support them whatever path they take. Their graduation won't mean a thing as the fans won't go down on them. Apparently, my ex-Oshi have the best graduation party ever!) Oh, yeah! I remember now about her, ATSUKO MAEDA or ACCHAN. Quite EXTRAVAGANT, but alright.

There are so much about them that I can't remember all of it. So, if you know, just comment to let the others know. Or message me so I can update this post sometime.

I will talk more in the other post about them. I hope that I could get to real details. I like AKB48 and their sisters. They made some good changes about entertainment in my country. And I mean it, a lot.

Alright, next post will be about Aeri's activity during her disappearance. Stay tune, guys. We never post about event before. So, it will be the first time for us. And Aeri had some interview with some "cosplayer" who cosplaying our most favorite Role-Playing Game, too. And beware, so much photos. My eyes kinda hurt because of the glitters.

Well, then. I think Aeri had checked out first. How rude of her. I apologize in her behalf. I bet she's already going over her script for the next post.
So, see you then. Crysta's sign out... for now...
