I just figured out what the 48G is missing! It potentially has everything that other Idol groups in Japan have in one form or another but there is one thing it does not have! One thing that is actually shocking to me especially given the numbers!
There are no Sisters in the 48G!
Why settle for fake sisters (NakoMiku for example) when you can easily get real ones? Totally missing out on all the drama that would come with that! Hell, even during the draft session for this year there was a glimpse of such drama when the potential 48G sisters in Nomura Mao and Miyo ranked side by side in the top 5 even! but alas, they went for Onee-chan leaving the imouto out to the wolves and she was so cute too!
Speaking of Draft members, there is something I wish to mention. You know my beloved Tokyo Girls’ Style? You know Miyu my favourite? Well she has a little sister named Ayu! Yes, you can guess where I am going with this – Ayu is a member of AKB48! But that’s not even the best part – She is in Team B!!!! Is this fate?!
Anyway going back to the point at hand, I don’t know why AKB doesn’t get sisters! There should be at least 4 pairs of sisters in here! I can just see them fighting it out for best blood! A lot of other groups have sister and they are in small numbers also quite favoured. Starting with this very group whose sisters I have used as the visual reps, LinQ has the Aramaki sisters. I believe the younger one joined just last year. Cheeky Parade also has sisters with the younger (Maria) being the centre of the group while the elder (Yuriya) actually writes songs for the group from time to time. Then there is AiCune with the Kinoshita sisters! And let’s not forget bump.y that I already posted about I believe!
Seriously, why are there no sisters in the 48G? Oh well! I guess if they had everything there would be no need to follow other groups, eh? Speaking of which if you will excuse me, I will now go and youtube hunt some new vids from these groups.
Also that photoshoot, I hope it’s for a PB because I will be buying it and adding to my collection right next to the bump.y one! Whatever it is anyway I am getting it! But since they just posted this vid it means I have to wait a life time for it! Damn!

There were sisters in the 48G but they weren’t in the same time frame. The older one graduated before the younger one joined in. Talking about the Takada sisters. Former AKB48’s Takada Ayana and Former SKE48’s Takada Shiori. Both graduated though. And also Yuria has a cousin who is in SKE48 ^^
June 22, 2015 at 11:55
In other words no sisters. ^^
Kragorin told me about Yuria’s cousin but still, it’s not the same.

Thank you Thank you Thank you! Opening scene with hands? A PV after my own heart. Sadly I am watching this on my phone on the way to work! Can’t really see anything with all this stupid glare. Can’t wait for the day to be over to get home and watch it gloriously!
What a fluffy thing too. We have missed some goodness to God yuri lately

there are sisters in 48G. they are in JKT48. team J has laksani sisters, team K3 has naomi and sinka. laksani sisters are really sibling by blood, same as laksani sisters, naomi and sinka also sibling by blood.

What? Truly?! Time to get away from Japan based groups for a while.
I don’t follow overseas sister groups that much so I had no idea about JKT having not one but two pairs of sisters.
Thank you for this info pilpil

Idoling!!! actually has three sisters in Hashimoto Ruka (15), Hashimoto Kaede (18) & Hashimoto Natsuki (21). Also sisters are Asahi Runa (19) & Asahi Nao (21). Plus a mother/daughter combo Sakai Hitomi (26) & Sakai Yoshiko (53)…
June 29, 2015 at 09:58
I know of the Hashimoto sisters too. I only mentioned a few. But I don’t know of a Hashimoto Natsiki! She is not in Idoling now, surely
July 3, 2015 at 03:06
They actually just joined:

What is even the point when they are closing off Idoling?
Which is a sad, sad thing by the way. Their show was the one keeping me afloat when AKBINGO got boring. Oh well, all good things must come to an end some time

Indeed that is truly a shame. I suppose they just want to have fun with the time they have left, I guess they are more free to experiment and do whatever they want now.
July 5, 2015 at 14:18
Yeah, seeing the latest episode, I am pretty sure they just want ot go out with a bang. I mean, Kasai’s Mom? Come on da ze
