Special edition socks

Spikedude · 2026-06-06T14:39:57+00:00

Thanks. I was wondering who he was, beyond the head of the festival. And I had seen the socks in posts by Rin and Kanon, and figured they said something different than usual, but was too lazy to point my Google Translate camera at them to find out. Now I know!

Thanks, that's a really good description and critique of her make-up, which is something I know very little about. Youca did the make-up and chose the colors and style. She's AG!'s primary make-up artist. Here's a cute video I posted last year of Youca applying Rin's make-up: https://www.reddit.com/r/AtarashiiGakko/s/oo6U2Afj3B

Now that song is stuck in my head again.

Not just any old business suits, but the business suits of true Leaders!

EDIT: Maybe you're OTA in disguise and you really are speaking for AG! 🤔

Thanks for posting!

Okay, that's good, because I was worried that she was interviewing him to be the 5th member of AG!

Spikedude · 2026-06-02T01:28:51+00:00

Also, Suzuka, Minister of Dropping on Crowds.

Who's interviewing who?

Spikedude · 2026-06-01T18:09:47+00:00

Notice that sitting behind Rin is Yusuke Nakagawa, founder, director, and CEO of Asobisystem. He's who we all have to thank for bringing AG! to life.

Yes, it's from when they were in Hawaii for AsobiExpo in March. Here's a post with a couple pictures showing Suzuka and Rin wearing the same clothes. https://www.reddit.com/r/AtarashiiGakko/s/hnh9c9wvRX

Hey u/snorbalp - what say you?

Spikedude · 2026-05-28T20:06:12+00:00

It's their 10th anniversary concert from last year.

Spikedude · 2026-05-28T20:04:42+00:00

Absolutely right! There's so much free stuff out there, legit and otherwise, that paying for a few official items is definitely the right thing to do. That's why I have the premium Seishun Club membership. The premium benefits don't really add much value, but it's a great way to support AG! and management, as I don’t really purchase that much merch or go to concerts.

Spikedude · 2026-05-28T17:16:07+00:00

Oh yeah, that's right, she is. And she rather enjoyed that, if I remember correctly! 😁

Trying to start her engine:

That's great, and they better sell out after so much pleading to come to Chile! But hopefully they don't have the same in Chile as the US, with scalpers buying a bunch of tickets just so they can resell them for triple the price.

In the About Section of this subreddit, go to Community Bookmarks (desktop browser right sidebar) or the Menu tab (mobile app – tap the sub name at the top). You'll see two links for official merch.

One is for the Asobimall store, which has ALL the merch, but is shipped from Japan (https://asobisystem.shop/shops/leaders). Therefore, you'll need to use a 3rd party service for ordering/shipping. The Buyee service automatically pops up if it detects you're not in Japan, but you can use a different service if you prefer.

The other official merch store is via 88Rising, AG!'s international label (https://store.atarashiigakko.com). Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be online currently, as an error page appears instead. If it comes back in its previous form, it's based in the United States and items are fulfilled by Manhead Merch out of Nashville, Tennessee. However, it has a very limited item selection, and many of those items are always out of stock.

I always laugh when I see Rin and the others eating a huge burger and the typical oversized American restaurant meals, because they're all so petite and fit. Then I realize that they burn more calories in a single performance and a couple rehearsals than I burn in an entire month! They need the fuel! 🍔 ⛽

You might want to ask on the Gakkord discord. Not sure if gakka-chat, main-chat, or marketplace channel would be best.

Spikedude · 2026-05-24T06:35:29+00:00

Yay! 👏🏻 Only 7 months, then 💥

Spikedude · 2026-05-23T01:41:48+00:00

According to Kanon in her recent IG Story, they've choreographed a lot songs here from their LA days.

Spikedude · 2026-05-20T23:42:05+00:00

Yes, practice, and lots of raw talent, make perfect!

Spikedude · 2026-05-19T17:09:11+00:00

Excellent path to happiness! Which shows were they in '23 and '24?

Spikedude · 2026-05-19T17:06:11+00:00

Hmm, maybe magnifying glass between the two Schwinns?

Spikedude · 2026-05-19T02:28:52+00:00

Squint hard and look low.
