In that case, to reassure Rena (and some sharp-eyed fans) it would be necessary to do some actual and detailed mo-cap of every individual's dance routines and body language, along with more movement joints in the skeletons, to add life-like "personality" in the movements.

I did see that in the Chinese forum earlier. Rena Matsui is the one of the Double Matsui, co-Ace from SKE48 and a Arcade fan as well as one of the many ACG otaku in the 48 family.
If I remember correctly, she wasn't particularly directed at the CGI format but the fluidity of movement of what's being shown and the dace choreograph itself. Well, we'll just have to wait until the finished product.

BTW, I found this clip from the Yearly Shibuya AX Concert where 48-family sings 100 songs in a 4 day event where the fans got to vote from any of 400+ stage/cd songs they have. It's the 6th encore song in Day 2 for 2011 concert and #35 in 2012 concert.
This is the song that is used in the background of the early build trailer from sa547: Spoiler for AKB48 [B]Shojo-tachi yo [少女たちよ]:

Anyway... best case scenario for this was going to be like Idolmaster.... 2nd was going to be the "money saving" Love Live! style with all closeups being typical animation and any mid and long cuts being all CGI. Worst case is completely CGI, Precure ED style.. Going by Romain's update it looks like they're going with the Love Live! style with the blend of the two styles. Am I happy? Probably not.. since even a lot of the Love Live PVs look awful when they use the GCI scenes way too close.. and it's always noticeable... but I guess it could be worse.. CGI mechas were expected considering this is Satelite and Zero/Aquarion/Kissdum/Frontier/EVOL.... but CGI dance scenes.... meh.. I hope they aren't too lazy with it. |

Key visual:
No high res version out yet, it seems. A few screenshots of the first episode are also available on the Oricon website (it also has a full report on the AKB0048 talk corner of the TV Kanagawa Anime Festival). Spoiler for For easier viewing...:

Actually I got that from the AKB0048 manga that just started serialization.
The 1st chapter has the Kenkyusei refer to some of regular members with names of real life AKB member and it explains that top members will get carry on the name of legendary members based on their style and resemblance. The keys here is that there are multiple of them so clearly the generational designation isn't some that they shares among them but unique to each name. And like I said inhering names is a fairly common practice in skill professions in East Asia, especially in Japan.

Did a brainfart: I forgot that Mikan Ehime and Risa Ebata are the one and the same woman.
The screenshots are far different from the initial character sketches. Detailed backgrounds are, undoubtedly, becoming Satelite's trademark. OBTW, the Idolm@ster games and [AKB1/48 Idol to koi shitara] PSP dating sim are developed by Namco Bandai, which means, given that there are some franchise crossovers of late (Street Fighter and Tekken, for example), I'll not be surprised if there comes an IM@S vs. AKB0048 game down the road. I want someone to hit on this spin-off manga into English. Also, the official site gets a splash-page update: Finally...

Damn, they're trying to fight off the riot pigs! Methinks of that Foo Fighters video (The Pretender).
