| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- All the girls trying so hard! Nice. Kinda feel sorry for Mimori this episode. Well at least her poses still looks good. I also enjoyed the performances later in this episode. Music to the ears~ Damn, I hope Mimori gets better soon.. |
 |
| Yeah Tsubasa actually explain it's normal symptom but it seem like Mimori failed to become a successor or she success I dunno. It's too early for Nagisa to become Aachan. I still think that Nagisa is more fitting role to success for Aachan Well about the dream Nagisa had before in first episode it could also be a sign that Nagisa will become Aachan successor in the future. What does it call again? Synchro with Aachan soul. |

| Don't you think it would weird that Aachan show up in Nagisa dream? And she wouldn't successor to become Aachan even Yuuko think Chieri or Nagisa will become Aachan. Well, for what I can see from the end of the episode that Tsubasa is shocking that it's end up failing to get another successor for Mimori but it could end up in opposite . The closest one to become Atsuko Maeda is Nagisa, but how come that Kirara only shining bright when both Nagisa & Chieri together? Confused! Well if you actually go back and see what Aachan told Nagisa, you are wrong as well. She doesn't tell her to be afraid of competition. Nagisa: Kirara, please glow to me! Make this darkness disappear Aachan: The Kirara aren't the only ones who glow. Nagisa: Aachan!? Aachan: The radiance comes from within you. Aachan: Fear not Aachan: Sing at the top of your lungs. Aachan: and make your presence known! Like from the previous season Nagisa is determined and want to become Center Nova and try to aim higher. I want to see a preview, guess 5-6 days for that. |

argee said: Yeah, It would be really weird if Nagisa didn't end up as Acchan's successor, with all that foreshadowing scene linking Nagisa and Acchan. . . . I agree. And why make her almost look like acchan with her hair and ribbon accesories anyway? It felt like a give away that she'll be the one. |
| I thought Yuuko real name is Hikari argee said: Second, since she can't perform they have to decide who will take her place momentarily, since Nagisa knew some of the steps (with a great coincidence that Ushiyama spotted Nagisa), by doing so Sensei-Sensei has given Nagisa a chance to shine brighter than Kyouko and Chieri. . |

| Your prediction is so amazing it and if it does come true next week I give you thumbsup . It wouldn't be surprise if it was Sensei-Sensei's plot. He is like Aki-P argee said: I think it's one of those Sensei-Sensei's plot, First he choose Mimori for succession, in doing so Mimori will have a post-fever for succession., Second, since she can't perform they have to decide who will take her place momentarily, since Nagisa knew some of the steps (with a great coincidence that Ushiyama spotted Nagisa), by doing so Sensei-Sensei has given Nagisa a chance to shine brighter than Kyouko and Chieri. Third, and when it's finally over Sensei-Sensei change the succession of Acchan from Mimori to Nagisa (maybe this is the reason why Mimori is crying and the surprised expression of Tsubasa) Well this is only my prediction. . . . . . . |

1idd0kun said: Kaylacat said: I can't wait for it to be subbed!!! What I think happened was that Mimori was going to succesed someone but couldn't handle it. You're wrong. Tsubasa explains the fever is a normal symptom of becoming a successor. The next successor is Mimori without a doubt. I actually don't think they're wrong. Although Tsubasa did explain that the fever was normal, she also said something like "I hope Mimori can handle this" as if it were a test. Mimori couldn't complete the performance, which, to me, says she probably failed (as sad as I am to say it). Hence the tear and the changing of Mimori's figure in the succession. I just hope Mimori gets another chance 'cause she's my favourite. |
| Yeah I have a bad feeling that Mimori isn't going to be the one who is going to succeed. :( Ughhh I would feel so sorry for her if this ends up being the case. She's worked so hard and just when she finally got this close, somebody else (probably Nagisa from the looks of that concert) leaps right past her for the succession. I sure hope that won't be the case. Loved the intensity of that concert and damnnn lol I wasn't expecting Nagisa to randomly shout out that. What a way to steal the spotlight. |
 |
| Finally Nagisa starts to look more like a protagonist.... |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| I can't tell if Chieri's father is having bad nor good intentions anymore... |
 |
| I want it to be next week already, this cliffhanger is slaughtering me >.< Nice to see Mimori getting a chance to achieve even greater heights. And Nagisa, you go girl. Damn, now it's time to stare the calendar down, maybe I can get time to flow faster just by sheer willpower >.< |
| I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl |

| Gah, I am always nervous for the girls every time I watch this anime. So full of suspense. And well since my fav is Nagisa, my heart was throbbing. And oh my gosh, specially at the end, I wonder what Tsubasa saw at the end. And who will Mimori succeed, or will she succeed at the end. THis anime seriously needs more than 13 damn episodes per season, damn it! |
 |
| Another great episode of AKB0048. Finally Nagisa found her path and looking really forwards to the next episode! |
| Things are getting more intense Okay, now we know why Nagisa is performing with the Elected members from the episode preview. Great to see her improving and Ushiyama notice her. It's good that Ushiyama gave Nagisa advise about following ber own path instead of mimicking others. And I hope that right path will lead her to succession. We also learn that you'll have fever of succession and see visions of the person that you'll succeed. I wonder what's up with Mimori's visions. Did she lose her chance? I hope that. I'm hoping that Nagisa will appear on the Kirara of Succession. Damn cliffhangers! I want to know what Mariko saw already. That's why I hate cliffhangers. Makoto still using her old hairstyle. Aww...I want her her down. I lol at the part where Yuuko took pictures of Chieri and the others in the bathroom. Also, why is Yuuko obsess in finding who the next Acchan is? I'm crossing my fingers that Nagisa will be the 14th Acchan. XD Shine more Nagisa, shine than anyone else. |
| I should have waited till next week to watch this episode, because the cliffhanger is going to kill me! Grumbly... wear your hair down! As for Nagisa and Chieri, I think they're Kazuma, is that you? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H76OFNDl_jg&t=0m25s |
 |
| nice episode.. I don't know AKB real members that well, however judging by their hair style i'm sure that Nagisa will be the next Acchan.. Chieri or Makoto might be MiiChan.. well, thats what i think |
 |
| I think that in next episodes we ll see chieri no otosan (father) taking her if she become the next acchan or center nova... And when he tries to extract all kirara power we will understood that chieri alone is nothing... Chieri always said that during all those years her little kirara never has bright because of her... how could she be a center nova? I hope Mimori succeed Miichan or mariko,she and kanata deserve sucession : < Acchan 13th was nothing special until she inherited the name she has now :/ she was timid like nagisa is now... One more week to wait... : ( |
| sigh.. |
1idd0kun said: wishkas said: Why do you think Yuuko and Miichan think Chieri has Center Nova potential? Because they have seen her glow. Yes i watch every week : P And yuuko and miichan have seen both nagisa and chieri, not only chieri... |
| sigh.. |
| Mimori was going to succeed, but after Nagisa's performance, I am pretty sure the portrait in that bubble is about to change to Nagisa. |
 |
| if every member in akb had fever before inherit a name, everyone could tell whats going on with mimori only by see her, and none of them seems recognize the symptom... it can be a thing that does not happen to everybody... |
| sigh.. |
| But, but who is Mimori going to become? WHOOOOO?????????? |
| if a understudy gets a fever and is promoted immediately afterwards... and if that really happens with everybody... by now someone should have noticed... |
| sigh.. |
| MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII CHAN 6th \m/ or Mariko 8th :D |
| sigh.. |
| How is this show so good? |
| Darn cant wait for next week episode. |

The one who has the fever becomes a successor. Mimori had the fever, Nagisa didn't. It's not about who is going to become a successor. Like 1idd0kun said, Mimori is already confirmed to become a successor. The problem is who is Mimori going to succeed. How it changed last minute is the surprise ~ |

It seemed similar to the event from season one with Kanata and Takamina. I agree with you completely, actually. The way Tsubasa explained the fever, it sounded like it was something that some members experienced, but not everyone. She said the fever "confirmed it", and that she had had a fever when she succeeded, but she didn't say everyone had a fever specifically. To me, it sounded like everyone had a trial they had to overcome, and a fever was just one form that the trial could take. As someone on Tumblr pointed out, why on earth would Tsubasa be surprised at the fact that Mimori was succeeding someone? She knew Mimori was going to succeed somebody so I don't really see why the person who she was succeeding would be shocking. On the other hand, if Mimori lost her succession, I imagine that would be quite surprising for Tsubasa. |

1idd0kun said: pink-lemonade said: As someone on Tumblr pointed out, why on earth would Tsubasa be surprised at the fact that Mimori was succeeding someone? I could see Tsubasa being surprised if Mimori was succeeding Acchan or Mariko, for example. It's possible, but I still think that gasping out loud over a succession she already knew was going to happen, one way or another, is a little extreme. Not to mention when Mimori was having delirious dreams a figure (assuming this was the person she was to succeed) turned away from her, and then Mimori started crying. |
Amazing episode!  Nagisa finally shines! As for the talk about everything, it sorta does seem that Mimori failed succession :( As for Kanata and Takamina, I wouldn't mind if Kanata succeeded Takamina. And, as for Acchan, from what I've seen of her, and what I've read, Nagisa's the definite match. Chieri may have Center Nova material in her, but I don't see her being an Acchan successor really. We'll have to see where it goes. Of course, if Mimori were to succeed who Tsubasa was, then that would probably also cause Tsubasa to be shocked. But the scenario of Mimori failing the test is also quite likely. I do want to see her succeed because of her great attitude, but I'm not sure if it'll happen. About Chieri's dad, he's a creep. Don't let anything he says confuse you. His plans are definitely not for 'good'. He's trying to harness the kirara for weapons. Remember, he's a weapon producer. He didn't want his daughter to touch AKB until he learned of how he might be able to harness the energy of Kirara. Also, finally, the whole thing being a plan to prod Nagisa seems also quite plausible. All I know is that Nagisa really pulled a crazy move there! Probably see some comical reactions to it afterwards, but I think it'll definitely nab her some popularity. One thing I REALLY want to see, is the rest of the understudies really getting themselves into gear too. I wanna see them succeed the others. But, at this rate we might be waiting on another season to see that T_T |
 Well, this preview says that someone did become a successor. It doesn't say who it was, but since Mimori was the only one with the Successor Fever, it's kind of a no brainer. |

| i wish i could read jap : ( |
| sigh.. |
| Someone suggested on tumblr that Mimori could always be "succeeding" herself in a way to word it. Like her personality and spirit is strong enough for her to be the first of a new idol~ Quite the out there idea going on what the series has been basing its self on but one i really like the idea of tbh :3 would explain why Tsubasa was all OUUWWWWWAAAA~ and how Mimori didn't seem (there's no saying she didn't see a full girl just was blurred out for us) to see anyone in her dream. Mimori has such a individual character too seems a bit disappointing if she just has the same spirit as a previous idol~ Though if she is to succeed a idol i would love for it to either be miichan or a random one that hasnt been in the show yet, I HIGHLY doubt its going to be Acchan~ The series really seems to be pushing Nagisa as the next Acchan, With her initially being so timid, but shining on the stage~ |
