Dear Nogizaka, why are you so perfect?! How can you be so good to us fans all the time?! Be it yuri you deliver. Be it Danso you deliver. Be it good music, you always deliver and you always do it so well! Like, how can anyone ask for something more after this great episode that I like to think of as my Christmas present?! Seriously, with this I am so done with 2014! I am satisfied. Nothing can happen from now until Jan 2nd and I would still be satisfied! DAT Ikoma and Chiharu danso, that intense segment by Nanase, my dream of the comedians as a ship being delivered in the best package possible, that is Kazumin and Noujou…
Reika x Yumi? Oh God Yes! Misa x Mai? Praise Jesus! Ikoma x Hoshino x Hocchan?…
So, as every year’s norm, this year too we get a Halloween episode from Nogizaka where they cosplay for my favourite holiday. This time they even kick things up into high gear by pairing the girls up and you know what that means dear Readers – Ships incoming! And so the couple start pouring out including some fan-canon ones like Yumi/Reika and MaMai/MisaMisa. Just as I am wondering who Ikoma-kun is gonna be paired up with, and I just know she is going to do Danso because no one loves Danso like she does, hoping that it could me Minami-chan or Miona and I have to do thins until the very last couple(?) because she came up the last.
And do you know what those guys decided to do? They went and broke the rules by placing Ikoma-kun in a triangle with none other than the mentioned choices I had for her! You can imagine my heart’s condition when I first saw that logo with the three of them together. I just knew I was in for a world of sweet pain. But I thought I was ready! I mean surely they can’t do something like making Ikoma a guy with Minami-chan or Hocchan as a girl and the three in a triangle, surely..Well, I was wrong…
No! Do not attempt to scroll past this! I am not pranking you! For Ladies and Gentlemen, NOGIBINGO is back! If you are crinkling your eyebrows right now, let me assure you that you most certainly aren’t alone, Dear Reader for I too have heard absolutely nothing, and I mean, nothing of a third season of this show that makes AKBINGO run for it’s money! Episode 01 already aired and I am only finding out about it now!?! I am so ashamed of myself!
And just like it’s previous premieres, this season’s first episode sets the ground for some pretty epic things to come! And here I was thinking that we would never get another season! I don’t know why but I really thought the second season was the last! It was just so good and felt like all the best was poured into that season but then I remember that series get continued because they are awesome and so here we have ourselves another season of Nogizaka awesomeness!
So, Lolly asked me what my No.1 ships were in the 48 Family and X21 so instead of a quick comment, I am using this post for some pics sharing and a wider word spread!
None of these should be a surprise really to all who have been Readers of Yuri goggles for a while now. MAYUKI dominate the Main Dorm in Akihabara, WMatsui, despite the fact that they are a professional ship still are my favourite even as I have yet to see blog pics of the two being lovey dovey. Seriously I know they might be busy or something but still…Not even one!?! Talk about bad Fan-service! Thank the Lord for the PVs!
HKT is mainly about my personal tastes than anything else because I have yet to find an actual honest to God couple. They all haven’t found a firm ground yet being all flighty, maybe Madoka/Natssun. I had found a grounded ship in Chori/Aanyan but alas, they went and dismantled them with the transfers! And speaking of transfers…

Damn you management, damn you! All the fucks I’ve given about NMB since the shuffles have only to do with Yukirin and we all know how little of her appearance in there is. NMB has gone from being my favourite group and Team N almost thrashing Team B for favourite Team and me watching every single N stage to me not even caring anymore! They even split up my Shuuka, like…
I guess I under-estimated how much Maachun really meant to me. Seriously I thought I loved that girl but not to this extent! I didn’t think her leaving NMB would make me lose so much interest in it to the point of not even watching any of their stages! Since new team N’s debut, I haven’t seen a single NMB stage! I don’t know how she affected me so. Before, I watched almost all Teams’ stages even the KKS (Thanks to Riichan 24hr TV getting me interested in them BTW) but now…Paruru gives more fucks about anything than I do NMB!
Anyway…moving on! It was a hard decision to decide between Yumi/Reika and Ikomiona but my love for Ikoma-kun and Hocchan totally cheated the test to have a perfect score! There is just something about those two and Hocchan’s hobbies give that un-expected spice to the relationship whereas Reika and Yuki are your typical perfect couple and we have enough of those going around so…
As for X21, MaiMai and Miho are still my favourites. I never get tired of the way they watch each other during interviews when the other speaks and how they somehow always end up next to one another. Now granted if you were asking me who was my favourite from their TV show, then of course Rina and Ichigo totally take the cake but that is only within the show’s universe. Outside in the real world, I actually ship Ichigo with someone else so…
Any way, I hope this answered your question perfectly Lolly! Be seeing you around (I hope)
Does anyone know if there is a full video of that event? I found this on youtube but sadly the tele convos were cut out. I want to know what they were saying! Seeing the words ‘Love’ and ‘Voice’ on the wall behind them makes me very curious!
