Ⓠ What kind of person people say you are? Isozaki Nana: "I'm often told that I'm the kind of person who hates to lose, and that I'm stoic." Matsuzaka Saho: "I'm often told that I'm easy to talk to, and that I'm friendly!"

Ⓠ What is your number 1 charming point? Nana: "I'm a fanatic of 48G, so my charming point is that I can talk about 48G all day with anyone!" Saho: "The three moles on my face. They're unique, so I hope you remember them!"

Ⓠ What makes you happy, and what makes you sad? Nana: "I'm happy when receiving compliments! I get sad when someone does something to me that I do not like." Saho: "I'm happy when I receive a lot of compliments! I don't mind being called 'tall' but it makes me sad when I'm called 'big'"

Ⓠ Who is your favorite female idol? Nana: "I love Oshima Yuko-san even though she is no longer an idol. She will always be my idol!"

Kairi-san is really energetic and makes me smile just by looking at her! Also, she has a really cute face. ♡"

Ⓠ Most embarrassing story of your life? Haruna: "I sent a picture of a tuna cutting performance to the Line group chat of my part-time job by accident." Momoka: "When I was a new employee at a past job, I referred to myself as "Okuruma Momoka" when I was introducing myself and repeated the same thing three times when I tried to rephrase it."

Ⓠ Anything you are into lately? Haruna: "I recently got into cooking. I'm glad whenever Momoka-chan says that my cooking is delicious. ☆" Momoka: "I am playing the 'Bean Championship' game by myself. I've been eating a lot of beans because I'm curious to see which one comes out on top among all the different kinds of beans. At the moment, it is edamame (green soybeans)."

Ⓠ Is there anything that you absolutely cannot lose to anyone when comes to it? Haruna: "Effort. As my motto says 'Effort over anything, and results over oneself'. I don't want to lose to anyone when it comes to effort!" Momoka: "Loud voice. Loud voices might may be usual, but in my case, I can make my voice as loud as the sirens at a highschool baseball game. My voice is usually quiet, so I will improve it."

Ⓠ What are your goals/dreams in NGT48? Haruna: "My dream as a member of NGT48 is to become someone who can promote the group by performing on stage, in musicals, dramas and movies." Momoka: "I hope that in the future, NGT48 will appear in every TV Show that people tune into. I love to talk, so I would like to appear in variety shows."

Ⓠ What is your message to the readers? Haruna: "Nice to meet you! My name is Nishikawa Haruka and I am from Osaka. I will never forget my initial resolution that struggling with what you love is a happy thing, and I will keep on trying!!" Momoka: "Everyone, if you are reading this, will you be interested in me? I want to make my dream come true together will you all, so that I can become the ultimate idol."

Ⓠ What kind of person people say you are? Kimoto Anna: "I have a tendency to be shy. But as we get to know each other better, I am often told that I am too loud, because I am more likely to put myself out there and interact with others." Sekinoyama Nagi: "I may look cool, but when I talk to people, they tend to find me interesting. I like to talk, so I tend to get excited (LOL)." Sato Hiroka: "For better or worse, I have a naive nature and people around me often say I think too much!"

Ⓠ What is your number 1 charming point? Anna: "My smile. It is often said that when I smile, my eyes disappear, so my smile is my number 1 charming point." Nagi: "There are many things about me, but not only am I cute, I'm also a cool-looking 18-year-old full of energy!" Hiroka: "I can wink with my right eye or my left eye! I'll immediately appeal to you the moment you make eye contact with me!"

Ⓠ What makes you happy, and what makes you sad?Anna: "I'll be happy if you make me your oshi! But, if you have your eyes on someone else, I'll keep on fishing..." Nagi: "I'm happy when someone does something for me! On the other hand, I have a pet peeve for last-minute cancellations." Hiroka: "I am simply most happy when people celebrate my birthday! I am always get sad when there is a sudden evening rain shower."

Her way of life as an idol who keeps challenging herself is so cool! I think she is the ideal image of an idol."

Ⓠ Favorite artists/songs? Anna: "back number-san's 'Summer Wonderland'. The summer! I was repeating this song all summer this year." Nagi: "I love a Korean idol group called LESSERAFIM! I want to go to their concert someday." Hiroka: "I have been listening to a song called 'Phantom thief' by back number-san, which my friend used to hum."

Ⓠ Most embarrassing story of your life? Anna: "I was in charge of playing a glockenspiel at a nursery school, but when it was time for me to perform with the instrument, I just randomly played it because I didn't know which notes I was supposed to play." Nagi: "When I clung to my grandfather's leg and it turned out to be a completely different person. I still remember it even though it was when I was very young." Hiroka: "I can't decide on one, there's too many! The times where I slipped on a snowy road and proceeded to scatter my luggage and the times where I had a smug face on while paying with my phone but the payment didn't through were both equally embarrassing."

Ⓠ Anything you are into lately? Anna: "I like to sing alone. I used to go with friends or my sister, but lately I've been into singing to my heart's content alone." Nagi: "I am rekindling my interest in 3DS for the first time since elementary school. I communicate with it to my friends and play together. It makes me feel nostalgic and above all, it's fun!" Hiroka: "Playing games while watching anime! Sometimes I don't know which one to concentrate on. I love both!"

Ⓠ Is there anything that you absolutely cannot lose to anyone when comes to it? Anna: "Singing. It may be a bit of an exaggeration to say, but I like to sing and I think I am good at it." Nagi: "My positive spirit is second to none! I still have a long way to go in terms of dancing and singing, but I believe there is a lot of room for improvement, so I will do my best!"

AKB48 Team Shuffle (Project)

This is my own project I’ve been working on for a while. This is NOT an official shuffle from AKS or anything like that. I do not work for AKS in any way. Thanks for reading.

[AKB48 Teams]

~This took some time since I really want the teams to be even in old & new as well in power & popularity. ~I also added a mentor system so that senior members like Miichan don’t take a leadership position away from a younger generation member but can still have a side position for support. ~If there was a 16th gen that isn’t listed that means I demoted them or there wasn’t room in the team I wanted them in.
