There is a rumor buzzing among the 48 fans that the new unit that will be announced at Sapporo is actually a new sister group in Sapporo meaning they will establish a group at the far north of Japan (Hokkaido).

Isn't Sapporo too far though?

[mamoswine1]

yes and they want to create a sister group there -_- otehr speculation is because idol groups cannot access to sapporo easily that is why they want to dominate that region like how Hakata and Namaba did

I think it would be best if they establish another sister group at Sendai instead. It's on the north, and it's not as far as Sapporo.

[mamoswine1]

yes that is what the fans were complaining, Sendai was planned before yet this thing appear. But other fans said Sapporo is much better rather than Okinawa

Isn't Jakarta too far?

I'm referring to domestic sister groups, not overseas. That aside, JKT is doing very well.

[mamoswine1]

nice to hear that that JKT was doing well XD now I am wondering about SNH if these 2 will be successful like their mother group, I bet AKI-P will not put his word into reality

[ambersolle]

I'm not surprised that JKT is well-received in Indonesia, considering Indonesia's love for entertainment XD

I heard that SNH has trouble in maintaining their fanbase (not large enough to support them, unlike JKT). Heck, they haven't even form the official team yet.

I see I feel bad for SAE
