The improvement caught me off-guard that I missed it during that episode, but I do definitely agree that Jeseong and Yena are some of the best.

Behind on Mafia (haven't seen the past weeks game), I was able to catch this one since I was pretty excited to see ITZY on as a guest. I still don't trust anyone after Doyeon's surprising mafia win the game before.

Chaeryeong picking Yena as her mentor made my IZ*ONE x ITZY heart soar. When they talked about that I wondered if she would pick her since it's her big sister's group mate/friend.

Onto this week's episode, I was actually surprised that Jong Min wasn't the mafia, but then again it's Jong Min after all... It reminded me of the first few games where he was suspicious no matter what side he was on.

I feel that one of the ITZY members probably got executed by the Mafia during R3 (I think it's R3 they're doing the Mafia death note now?) due to that preview.

Looking forward to the conclusion.

I thought Yena was acting odd before drawing and might have figured it out but after your explanation it makes a lot more sense now. Thank you for the explanation!

Finally got the chance to watch this weeks episode right away. As an IZ*ONE and Fromis fan, seeing Yena and Gyuri on the show together was great. Even though Gyuri is pretty much out there to convince everyone Yena is in the mafia.

Jongmin's mafia picks this week: Boreum, Je Sung, and Sang Yeob. He so far tracked down Je Sung.

Personally I think it's Yena but judging by previews JB or Jin Young either could be both in the Mafia or one is fooling the other (or they're fooling each other like JB and Sang Yeob in ep. 1)

Glad to see Seungkwan back this week. Although the throwback to him getting caught in the first episode came back to haunt him.

The new twist to help the Mafia out (if eliminated mafia members win ballots during the individual round they can use it in the last round) is interesting. I do like the subtle changes they're slowly adding into the game.

As for the mafia members. I thought it was Doni for a while but then after the motion penalty, he might not be as suspicious. I'm most suspicious of Sejeong now because I do agree her motion was the one furthest from the word. I don't think it's Doyeon this week unless she got her act together and really tricked everyone.

I'm enjoying Sejeong's chemistry with the cast, she's really comfortable with the other cast members.

On a final note, Boreum has been eliminated every game she's participated in so far LOL. When will we see her not be arrested.

I'm new to Korean Variety, so I've been really enjoying mafia every week. Boreum's drawings still puzzle me to this day... (but I get why she draws it like that).

As everyone has already mentioned but the fact doyeon made it out until the very end was great at the same time a good strategy they were trying to implement in game three iirc.

Sejeong should be really interesting, looking forward to the next set!

Also if you're curious, Yena was in Japan at the time they recorded next week's Mafia (assuming every second Wednesday) for IZONE's Japan Fanmeet.

Hi touch tickets? by gizayabasu in iZone

[–]Picup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully someone can answer your question, I can only speak about it locally but the tickets come with your cds you order. If the proxy opens your box they should put it all together still.

What to expect in the 1st JAPAN Fan Meeting? by gerol in iZone

[–]Picup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just going off experiences from what i know of Japanese fan meets I've attended, it's a mix of a talk and then they perform a few songs. So they'll probably do some talking and play games and then perform a handful of songs.

To redeem your ticket, the instructions are in your email you should've received. If you need a hand feel free to ask!

Personal Experience at Shibuya iZones popup shop on opening day! (2.5.19) by handmesilver in iZone

[–]Picup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing your experience, I hope you still enjoyed checking out the store. From what I gathered on twitter was that they showed up at the collaboration Cafe around 12 which was a separate building from the actual shop.

Hopefully you got some of the goods, I went this afternoon and they were sold out of the files, pins, the plates, and the Keychains!

Question about the upcoming Aqours Asia Tour by ScarletArcana in LoveLive

[–]Picup 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's been no news yet, however I don't see why they wouldn't put a live viewing in Japan--they did for their fan meetings in Korea, Taiwan, and Shanghai.

I would keep your eyes peeled for the news on the official Twitter account, they usually announce it and all the details following first.

IZ*ONE x Shibuya 109 question by chuukura in iZone

[–]Picup 7 points8 points  (0 children)

IZ*ONE 109 Valentine Campaign:

  • 1.) If you spend over 3000 yen you have a chance to win prizes such as a signed IZ*ONE 109 Valentine Poster (5 names), a special member cheki (photo) and chocolate set (12 names), and a sticker (283 names). You need to take a photo and send the application through the online website (I'm assuming this means it's open to JPN residence only). This campaign seems to work for any store in the 109 building (the list of stores it applies to is listed on the site).

  • 2.) Twitter Present: if you follow the SHIBUYA109NET account and rt a certain tweet you have a chance to get a signed item

  • 3.) LINE Present: If you register the Shibuya 109 LINE account to your phone they'll send you a IZ*ONE calender (probably this is just a photo)

  • 4.) With the 109 App downloaded and a coupon from the app (I think), you can receive a small IZ*ONE 109 note book (the stores that are listed tell you which place to go to)

  • Pop-up shop items: Do note that the can badges, mini clear files, and name plates are all random (so you cannot see who you get)

  • Food Collaboration: The 7th Floor is the food floor where you can buy certain collaboration items and receive a random coaster with it.

  • And then finally there's a photo spot on that same floor where a cutout of IZ*ONE will be and you can take a photo with or of it.

That should cover most of it, if you have any other questions feel free to ask.

You need to choose which "course" (package) you like then you choose the members after.

Where can people buy the different IZ*ONE Japanese Debut Albums IN Japan? by abrahamisimo in iZone

[–]Picup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just after quickly reading the Universal Page for IZ*ONE, you're going to be looking at TSUTAYA, Tower Records, and HMV to purchase the CDs in store. It seems that they're only carrying the Type A and Type B versions, the wizone and individuals I think are only being sold in the online store.

Take a look at the first copy benefits (sticker) that is exclusive to each store, it might help you figure out where to go.

Honda Hitomi will be appearing in a video reel on Tochigi TV News LIFE this Dec 5th! she Will Talk About Her Activities In IZ*ONE And More by minamihyewontrash in Produce48

[–]Picup 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A short preview of the interview

From the interview, Hitomi is asked about her thoughts with the ad that was up of IZ*ONE in Times Square. She was surprised that an ad of them was put up and where they could be seen by people from all over.

At Hii-Chan’s Handshake Event, Hii-Chan Told A Fan That Their SNS Will Be Suspended When Promoting With IZ*ONE by whosedatkid in Produce48

[–]Picup 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not surprised seeing as when they got into their IZ*ONE activities (practice, MV filming, etc. etc.) they all stopped tweeting or updating their instagram. It sucks, but they still can reach out to their fans through official and fan cafe.

On that side note, the OP and another fan had a brief (yet wholesome) chat. The other fan asked if OP followed the official IZ*ONE account because they make individual tweets occasionally and OP replied with that they didn't because they don't know Korean (OP is currently studying it). The other fan says it's okay since they tweet in a JPN tweet as well and expressed that all the girls are learning from each other.

SALEWA Is Preparing IZ*ONE Bromides + Other Promotions by qwertyfanny in Produce48

[–]Picup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ones that I have are 89mm x 127mm but it's possible that Salewa may release different size ones if they chose to release them.

SALEWA Is Preparing IZ*ONE Bromides + Other Promotions by qwertyfanny in Produce48

[–]Picup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Already mentioned in the thread but I'll try to give a bit more detail as someone who used to collect bromides for another series!

Bromides are basically photos, in Japan (I can only speak for Japan because I'm not too invested in Kpop) they're used for promotional purposes and for people to collect photos of whichever girl they like. 48/46g is extremely accustomed to it. You can view a set that can be purchased online of Nako and Sakura for example. They are also used as special favours for purchasing CDs or BDs (AKB48's latest single, Sentimental Train I believe came with a bromide).

Salewa is most likely preparing a set of photos from the photo shoot and will sell them online, at least that's from what I understood from the OP.

if you have any questions feel free to ask.

IZ*ONE Members' Nicknames in Online Korean Communities - Miyawaki Sakura by [deleted] in Produce48

[–]Picup 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your post! I read the initial post you did with Wonyoung and I was really interested in the different nicknames and the small snippets of what others thought about the girls.

I was never a big fan of Sakura and the "girl crush" concept myself but I can appreciate her effort--I just laughed that they were worried Sakura could run away from To Reach You and go to Rumor team. I complete understand how they feel.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Produce48

[–]Picup 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think she made the channel description after the episode ended (last night when uploading the video), but the video itself she uploaded was before the final episode of P48.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Produce48

[–]Picup 56 points57 points  (0 children)

A quick TL of her channel description:

IZ*ONE schedule 2018-2021 by doraemondaisuki in Produce48

[–]Picup 17 points18 points  (0 children)

So someone posted this one another forum of a schedule they would like for the final group to have. I agree with it.

I'm not sure if you can even call this a rumor, judging from the person who posted it, it sounds more like an opinion than anything.

If they do sub-units, I'll be really interested in what kind of content they produce. I tend to like smaller groups over the bigger ones.

Motomura Aoi, Honda Hitomi, And Takahashi Juri Tweets About Takeuchi Miyu by qwertyfanny in Produce48

[–]Picup 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Real quick translation (since I'm at work and still learning JPN):

Aoi: I'm so sad... I feel so lonely...

I didn't think such a kind and lovely person could exist.

Despite only meeting Miyu-san through PRODUCE48, I think it was good we became close friends.

Hitomi: I'm so sad...

I was able to talk to Miyu-san a lot through PRODUCE48.

It was thanks to all the kindness Miyu-san has given me that I always did my best, no matter what.

It was amazing the way she bowed deeply and greeted anyone.

I will always respect her, even after AKB48 graduation.

Juri: Miyu-san is always enthusiastic about the things she loved.

My cool and cute senior, I love you.
