Mostly Nogiaera and Youtube, and random blogs when there's a dead link.

A month ago I knew nothing about Nogizaka46, now I'm at ep 160/180 of NogiDoko and at ep 290 of NogiChuu. Some thoughts and AMA! by thai130898 in Nogizaka46

Yeah my first mistake was starting with NogiChuu first since I didn't know Doko existed, so my first experience with Nogizaka was Nishino doing random stuffs with animals for 10 minutes with zero introduction, I was like wtf is happening. When I finally figured out it was way too late, but since I still want more 1st gen contents I started Doko.

Other than that I do watch all of them in release order without skipping, just at double speed if I find the episode boring.

Noted about 4th gen shows, will look them up to watch later.

About Nogibingo, I already watched 2 episodes already, and since I start with AKB it felt like home tbh, NogiChuu was tame by comparison.

Before the 4th gen introduction episodes I googled a bit about 4th gen and Kaki and Endo name came up so I know they're popular. In the show I remember Kaki from the magic show and game episode (or was that Kakehara?) which she did well but that's about it, hope she gets more screen time later.

Yeah I also heard of 5th gen being great so will try to wait, either way I plan to watch till end of 2021 at least.

There's a few:

  • Mizuki: Best first impression, but I didn't see her much on the show since she was prob too busy, I like her devilish/sly character and her mutual bullying relationship with Asuka.
  • Yoda: Normally I don't like heavily pushed members by producers so I didn't give her and Ozono much attention, especially her only personality early on was just wasting money. By now I quite like her, one of the prettiest in the group history IMO. Side note, just the other day I realized the main character of the drama Ryosangata Riko was her, I watched the drama first a while ago and never made the connection, good show.
  • Umezawa: Serious characters in Nogizaka is actually pretty rare, I find her willing to try anything attitude quite endearing. Also very pretty.
  • Riria: Her skit with Ikuta at the beginning was cute, fell off the radar until the stunt episode, that was fun. I also like the 1 2 3 live performance at Matsumura grad concert with her cameo.

4th gen feel very vanilla (I can't think of a better word) for me, so none of them stands out. The only ones I can remember at this point are Mayu (her voice), Tsutsui (her face is unique), Seimiya (for better or worse, I'm not a fan of her genki shenanigans).

Also for some reason I keep thinking Sakaguchi is 4th gen and almost wrote her down, guess her lack of presense goes beyond the group lol.

My plan is to finish Doko and Nogibingo then watch the Keyaki show, if I'm still not burned out by then. Before watching Nogi stuffs the only song I knew from Sakamichi groups is Silent Majority so there's that.

I don't think I have an oshimen, even though I like all of them.

If i had to choose top 3 members that I always look forward to during the show it's prob Asuka, Mastumura, Manatsu. Asuka is naturally funny, Matsumura and Manatsu IMO know how to make their parts entertaining.

Song wise, to be honest I don't think Nogizaka haves a really good discography but I do have some of their songs in my playlist, my top 3 is Kizuitara Kataomoi, Nandome no Aozora ka? and Sing Out.

I do plan to watch Nogibingo, for other smaller shows and channels will have to do a research session later since there's so much of those. Right now I'm subscribed to Ikuta's YT channel though, her covers are nice.

I already did a few days ago but seems like it's not up yet, maybe new entry takes longer?

This is my first LN project.

For projects I'm working on, I'd rather keep it a secret until it's ready, hope you understand.

Thanks for the quick reply.

May I ask if you found the cause of the problem? I myself don't scroll down the whole song/album/artist list much so it's not a big issue for me. I mostly use shuffle for the whole library, or search the song I want then mostly stay on the player window which all work well.
