On another note, here's my current theory on the Center Nova thing:

I think the Center Novae disappear because they stand alone at "position 0" and bear the burden of the group on their own. If this is true, maybe Chieri and Nagisa will become a dual Center Nova, taking the ‘loneliness’ aspect out of the position. I think that might be the key to open the gate without disappearing.

I really want this to happen, seriously. I miss Yuuko already

Edit: Has anyone notice that there is a underlying meaning to the ending song? I realize this after watching the episode. Seems to be related to Yuuko somehow.

On other hands, Yuuko really shine brightly on this episode.

Makes me think of Stargate or Close Encounter of the Third Kind, along with time dilation and breaking the rules of thermodynamics.


Where she's aiming at.

Meanwhile on paralel universe, she become the idol that spread "Deculture!!!" across Galaxy...


On that picture: "Don't give up Nagisa. Your dream of becoming Center Nova will soon be realized in 3-4 weeks."

On the main site they announced a new extra that will be on the DVD and BD Vol 1 of Next Stage, and that is a code to get one special rare card on AKB0048 Galaxy Cinderella.

And wow, one day and a half before the 4th Galaxy Election is over, and the likely final results are very different from any other so far. I guess on the middle where you can change the character you will support, many people decide to shift theirs in a strange way or even randomly. Previous election top 3, Chieri, Sonata and Mayuyu are all below 15th place. Here how the top is looking like right now:

Top girl is next-gen Sashihara, followed by Tomochin, and Takamina in third place.

On slightly-related news, Sayaka Nakaya is now said to be recording for Psycho Pass, among other work (as it appears that she's getting some seiyuu offers):

You mean previous generation Sashihara? She was the one that graduated around 2 years before the start of the anime.

May the force be with you!

Uh, yes, but the Galaxy Elections are different from the show.

And just what is that supposed to mean? Beyond one potential interpretation that would lead to me wanting to fly to Japan and break Kawamori's kneecaps.

[chaosprophet]

Hmmm, maybe Chieri will go with her father in exchange for he making the DES troops fall back?

Well, anyway seems like another wow episode.

[mechdra]

If Chieri quits again, I might get pissed. She is a quiter, she did twice and I am not surprised if she will do it again.

Looking at episode 21, I wonder did any of the idols died since Tsubasa mention casualties.

Tomochin and Kojiharu going underground could be interesting. I guess they will discover the real identity of S4 and all the other secrets of Akibastar.

I don't like that title. Don't like it at all

I'm beginning to understand Wanderer's feelings now.

Is Yuuko really gone? Will the final arc be rescue Chieri instead? What if Chieri leaves because everyone (Minus the obvious ones who are ok with it) is bitching about her being Aizendad's daughter? I don't want to see that. Ever.

Chill, dude. You already sounds pissed and you don't even know what the episode is about yet.



BTW, in the preview Chieri says this: "I have to put an end to this with my own hands"

Spoiler for speculah:

That means she may go to confront her father. I think she may even agree to let herself be experimented on if that can spare the group and prevent more attacks. Attempting to sacrifice herself for the others would be consistent with her character, at any rate. But yeah, if she does go to meet him, the others might think she quit and betrayed the group. Except Nagisa, of course. She knows Chieri too well and knows she would never betray them.

Anyway, let's wait and see.

Spoiler:

I wonder if you work with the FBI or something. Every time you speculate, most of the time turn out to be true. Let's hope it's like this since I can really expect this from Chieri.

Kanata would probably believe in her as well, given she knows all about Chieri's daddy issues. And Yuuka and Orine will probably be willing to follow Nagisa.

Nagisa: Ok. Yuuko has disappered and Chieri goes to her father. Look like my way to Center Nova position is clear now.
