To get the whole discussion back on track, and to clarify a few things due to some terminologies used in the show, here's a handy glossary:

Preview of ep 3. OMFG SOLDIER/COMBAT TRAINING! Love it lol I see the girls being bully or competing with other trainees. Sayaka guiding them like the captain she is. IDEK..about the robot thing....stamina training? XD But it look like other 2 girls aren't going to appear in this ep? :O Now this make the relationship between Sonata and Kanata more interesting because they're sister but obviously live separate from each other and Kanata is not auditioning for AKB0048?

Maybe one of the new girls is going to succeed the name.
It's not like every member has a successor already. I can totally see Nagisa becoming acchan and leading akb0048 with all this talk of innate potential and stuff.

Sorry if my comment about dating got a few things going off-topic. I was partly curious why they didn't just place heavy restrictions on romantic relationships to keep them discreet and discourage them while still allowing them, especially since they are having these girls sing about being in love. Actually, I was more curious whether the show would touch on the issue anywhere. I've seen it touched before on various anime/manga, even with idols running away or abandoning their careers because they're in love.
Anyway, I do understand to some extent; in a way, romance is a test of fire, which determines whether you're an idol who's popular for image or a star who can keep a strong fanbase on account of talent alone. And anyway, American stars aren't that much better, I've often suspected that a number of celebrity relationships and even marriages were done merely for publicity, or even arranged by their management. But that's another story for another thread. |

Macross Frontier: No questions asked. If Ranka and Nagisa meet face to face, that will be... If the D.G.T.O hurts Nagisa, Alto will thought she is Ranka and whoop their robots hard. (Assuming) Symphogear: If they fight inside, its possible the Symphogear team is an all-rounder. Thus easily defeat the robots both inside and outside, also they are somehow "immune" to any space conditions.(Meaning they can leave or enter Earth without atmospheric pressure which burns the body.) But if they got give units to them, they should be based on the units they are parodied.(E.g. Heavyarms) Anyway this is based on the true case which happened in Japan. (From what I see on /a/.)

I see Atsumina, Mayuki, Twin Tower...but...no Kojiyuu... :\ Here's my successor prediction Nagisa --> Acchan Reason - Same hair, both love tomoto (from ep 1), and her name is Nagisa, which come from Acchan's most hated song Nagisa no Cherry because it forced the introvert to step in the spotlight, she even stood on stage crying and asking, "why am I being promoted over the others when I can't sing, and I can't dance as good as others?" Chieri --> Yukirin Reason - The princess vibe that Yukirin have. Sonanta --> Yuko Reason - She's give the same energetic feeling Yuko have...minus the dirty 30 yrs old mindset of a guy that like to touch girls butt..... Kanata --> Takamina Reason - They both have big ass ribbons on their hair. That's big enough indicator since Takamina is known for being "Ribbon Minami." Mimori (hasn't appeared yet, pink hair) --> Kojiharu/Nyan Nyan Reason - they're both tall, they both give off the girly vibe, and in Mimori description, she also have a nice body....even lesbians said Kojiharu body was sexy... Yuka --> Mayuyu Reason - beside the twin tail, Yuka's profile said she's good with technology, and so is Mayuyu. The only ones that I can't figure out is Orine, Suzuko, and Makoto...

Actually, I'm not sure what the story with Mayuyu is. Is she full android or is she a cyborg? Robots last a while, so what happened to the previous two? And before anyone gets technical, yes I know, female artificial humans are supposed to be called "gynoids". Technically.

LOL I was wondering about the robot thing too....
Why was Mayuyu the only robot? was it just an inside joke on her nickname? The previous models could be damaged from the fighting with the government and all that. I don't think the girls that succeed Mayuyu need to be robot...it could just be that the current "Mayuyu" is a robot for certain reasons we don't know yet. Hope they explain that. I still can't get over Mayuyu being a cyborg <3 Yukari Tamura did a good job voicing Mayuyu too. It's exactly her voice.

Sorry, I'm confused. If the new girls are to be successors of the older girls, then the older girls have got to be replaced. You can't have 2 yukirins at the same time. Unless you are suggesting they stay as trainees?
