@mercados_gal@saladahp22 You know they are bad man, violent man and they have legs. If they have partner they would harm them, if they don't, they would blame women and harm someone who refuse them. There would always be victims because bad man are there. But you just blame the one they harm.
@span_ows@krugermacro They listened to the fans singing there and applauded and thanked them before returning to the locker room. You haven't even watched the complete video, so you're making unfounded accusations here.
She and Takahashi truly believed in Akimoto and the story of the dream. Perhaps for Takahashi, the story is too beautiful and she is willing to tell it (note that the two girls actually have completely different original families). But for Maeda, it is "this story is true".
And here's another thing: she was perfectly like a blank paper that is willing and even looking forward to be paint something by someone.
Remember the early days that she became and idol, she had no special skill, not good at anything.
Akimoto Yasushi once said, "Maeda is like a dry sponge, not picky about what kind of water flow to absorb." It's perfectly true.
I think that is exactly what trait an idol need, and would make people want to explain her, to study her, to full the empty bottle with personal idea.
That is a double-side perfect match.
There are severall members who had already had experiences as a talent person before being AKB, but Atsuko was perfectly fresh, just as a blank paper.
From the interviews these years we know that she was actually recommended by the Talent scout. However, I think her confess is the truth, that she would rather join a team that is new, so she can try to create something from blank ground.
We all know that AKB48 is the group that wanted to Developing idols in the cultivation system. So for Atsuko, this is the only group that she will try to join, and she would only join it if she is the first-generation member.
