AKB48 for ASEAN

Cute, but what's the point?

All of my favorite members have "graduated" to go on to bigger and better things. One of them is even advertising feminine napkins.

Coercion tactics from Japan.

My brain is bleeding right now...

Very nice!

Come on guys let's just be nice and happy and proud for them !

I feel really embarassed as a Japanese. This is a faked popularity idol group. Nobody cares about this nonsense!

You never know, AKB48 could help Japan rule Asia.

Perhaps they are the real Wild Stallions; they're going to heal the world!

But probably not.

You never know, AKB48 could help Japan rule Asia.

Maybe if life were a cartoon...

AKB48's performance surely convinced other ASEAN nations that Japan is a mature and sophisticated world leader.
