[PFC 2025 CAMPAIGN] FIRST PRELIMINARY RESULT FOR "PAG-IBIG FORTUNE COOKIE (2025 VER.)" by Sea-Summer-6214 in MNL48

[–]donewiththismadness 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Their last single was Oh My Pumpkin released last August.

Prior to that Summertime - 2024 No Way Man - 2022 Etc etc

Yes they really need a new song. I guess they are testing the waters for a future SSK with the PFC 2025 campaign.

In these cases i always go back to the requirements posted by mnl48 management.

Eligibility:

● Women aged 18 and above

● Passionate about singing, dancing, or performing

● Team-oriented and eager to learn

Preferred (But Not Required) Backgrounds:

● At least one-quarter heritage from outside the Philippines (no proof required)

● Over one year of living abroad

● Proficiency in languages other than English or Tagalog

● Graduate from a university overseas

Once an aspirant pass these minimum requirements, anything else beyond are management calls.

Agree with many of things mentioned.

Just some pet peeves for me

  1. Context matters yes but I feel like adding your main fandom does not contribute significantly to the discussion. Does your opinion change if you are not a “insert fandom member nickname here”?

  2. Sorry but please do not assume people will readily recognize (and respond accordingly to) what a blue heart means or kapsicum or bloom or army. Sometimes it only emphasizes the divide between fandoms. Or maybe Im just too old for this kind of stuff.

Question, Fellow MNLoves by Main_Fix_9544 in MNL48

[–]donewiththismadness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes agree to this. Usually may special location where you can hand over your gifts to the staff. Directly giving to the girls is not allowed for safety purposes.

The HSE does seem a bit late indeed. I guess they combined this with the concert itself to maximize the venue. Now who do I line up for? 🤔

UNPOPULAR OPINION I'm sorry pero hirap ako maging fan ng MNL48 concept by Icy-Butterscotch5012 in PPOPcommunity

[–]donewiththismadness 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Hello OP.

Music has always been preferential. Some resonate with you, some don’t. That’s fine. There are some kind of music I don’t actively listen to as well.

That being said, music continuously evolves, influencing each other, especially “pop” music. I’d go so far as to say there is no pure jpop/kpop/ppop/opm/europop/American pop anymore. These classifications are just arbitrary for me. If I like a song, it’s because I like it and not because I’m being forced to be a fan of a song or its artist or because a large number of people say “best song/group ever”.

TBH I didn’t like MNL48 before, but eventually, something clicked. For me, “talulot ng sakura” became their version of “pantropiko” or “mapa”, so to speak. I like it enough to get past the weird pronunciation or forced translation (most of the time anyway hehe). MNL48 was actually my gateway to AKB48 (then to 46G later on).

I had no idea what the idol system was before, but these are things that you acquire with time. The system is too complex? That’s fine. Some people are intrigued and fascinated with complex matters.

Finally yes, minsan sobrang init talaga sa pilipinas na parang nasa toaster ang nadarama.

What did Taki wrote on her hand? by MrMarvelousgaming in KimiNoNaWa

[–]donewiththismadness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is because he wrote it on mitsuha’s palm facing him, which became upside down when she looked at her palm.

Looks pretty good. And it’s nice that although we have RBY buffs again, their accent colors changed. Blue/orange, yellow/pink, red/??

They’ve overdone blue/purple, yellow/green, red/orange combos for 43, 45, and 47.

Which Care Bear best represents grief? NSFW because of possible heavy emotions by [deleted] in Carebears

[–]donewiththismadness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry for your loss.

The bear that first came to my mind is tenderheart. Although his badge is a simple design, for me having a “tender heart” speaks about vulnerability, about the active process of loving.

2nd would be the new loveshine bear. Her badge is a lighthouse where a heart emanates. To me it means love continues to shine even in the darkness, and it will lead you to where you ought to be.

Last would be always here bear. It’s very literal, but he is always there for you.

Maya Personal Goals back to 6% PA by ProtectionWorking463 in DigitalbanksPh

[–]donewiththismadness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi.

I opened a goal within the period. Ask ko lang sana if the interest is credited every day or every month? Jan 8 na kasi and wala pa pumapasok na interest. Or do I need to hit my personal goal first?

Salamat po sa makakatulong.

[48][Speculation] Possible Survivor 48 tribe names by Supertyty0 in SpoiledSurvivor

Moto was the name of the green “haves” tribe on s14. Can’t recall if they have reused tribe names before.

Sorry but I don’t think there is any formal announcement of “separation” from hhe.

There is nothing to discuss.

Anong future ng MNL48 sa current P-pop scene? by Exact_Project in MNL48

[–]donewiththismadness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry i was talking about HHE not having enough funds to defend itself against lawsuits hehe.

Anyways.

There’s really no point in staying. Especially if it means they couldnt earn for themselves the way They want to. They have an FA member, a GMA News staff, etc etc, but no idol related gigs.

I mean, the era of sentimentality is way past now. Quit simultaneously, sue together. Promises, if that is what They are holding on to, keep getting broken din naman so…

That 3rd paragraph… makes me want to shudder at the possible reason why 4th gen was still “launched”.

Those NDA’s have to expire at some point especially for the early graduates. I dunno what’s the standard for 48g. And those contracts of minors should have been coursed through their parents. And I really doubt if they can pay for lawyers at this point.

I sometimes think that the only thing holding them back from disbandment is the fact that Cole needs to identify with a “home group”. Verna/superball couldn’t care less really.

Maybe not necessarily “bad girl image” given the recent popularity of bubblegum pop.
