The behaviour of ardent ***48 fans is again causing waves of revulsion online – this time provoked by a SKE48 fan who spent $12,000 on handshaking event tickets in order to secure several hours of “quality” time with his favourite maiden, and another maniac auction in which a single cookie made by AKB48’s Mariko Shinoda reached a similar sum at auction.
The fanatic in question reports buying enough copies of new SKE48 single “Eien Pressure” to obtain no less than 1019 handshaking event tickets, and shares proud pictures of his various stacks – which are estimated to have cost him ¥1,000,000 to accumulate:
This apparently grants him more than just the opportunity to feel a 16-year-old girl’s hand – he supposedly also has the opportunity to have his favourite have dinner with him, having procured the equivalent of several hours with the child of his choice – Mao Furuhata in this case it would seem:
Needless to say, the online response is as unkind as ever:
“She’s not even cute?”
“Using the money he got from his parents is he?”
“What happens when she gets involved in some scandal…”
“Think of the pressure on this girl if she has to spend 2 hours having dinner with this guy. What would they talk about? He’s a total stalker…”
“If that is so bad they ought to ban these handshaking events.”
“Don’t these guys ever think ‘what the hell am I doing?'”
“What happens if this kid doesn’t attend the event…”
“Maybe he can get his money back, if he still has all the CDs.”
“All he’d get is an apology I suspect.”
“What would you think if you were in the queue behind this guy for 2 hours whilst he had his turn?”
“Don’t sweat it, they do the ones with lots of tickets last.”
“Ah, so that’s how it works!”
“A million yen nets you only 2 hours… better just to give it to her?”
“Right, that’s what I’d do.”
In other news, a cookie (one cookie) made by the fair hand of no less than AKB48 Team A captain Mariko Shinoda has just fetched ¥1,001,000 at auction – although in fairness to those looking to salvage some vestige of sanity from the situation, the last serious bid appears to have been at a “reasonable” ¥49,000.
According to her fans at least, her cookies are well worth it (although detractors still maintain “she is only decent looking from one angle”):

I'm surprised that there are some poor souls who actually believe that the cookie was made by some AKB idol...
belief is a strong power, i mean look at stupid Christians..
At least they believe in GOD... and you? Just yourself, right?!
I sense some butt-hurt, do you truly believe in god? Seems like you might be having some doubts.
Yep, me, my girlfriend, my family, my friends, and why should that not enough?
Selfish bastard
Well if you are really down and out, just go to a church late at night and start praying, you might really, REALLY be surprised. Don't worry, the devil WILL take you back quite readily if you don't like it....
The thing is, and this is good for everyone, he'll take anyone who seeks him. So there are plenty of "Bad examples" including those ending up in church leadership. Instead of saying "That disproves..." go "Well if there's hope for THAT person there's hope for me!"
bla bla bla bla
To be fair, there are plenty of smart Christians as well. Not that makes it any better.
lots of Christians got butthurt, epic comment
Eien Pressure's actually the new AKB single...
You're right, though it's true that they're tickets (at least the top ones) for Furuhata Nao, who's an SKE member.
Also the second picture is of UZA, AKB's last single. So it's his second time in about 2/3 months (Don't know when he actually forked out the money, usually it's in pre-orders). Hard to believe, really. Maybe he's a reseller?
> Maybe he's a reseller?
I would concur. His apartment looks way too neat i.e., not cramped with usual otaku/stalker stuff.
Also the extra boxes in the first picture look very organised and untouched.
Still, don't like the idea of someone playing with my handshake tickets if I ever get one.
Oh look all my comments got deleted again because I'm telling the truth about this post. Thanks, Sancom. You're a true class act. Keep lying! PLEASE!
3D Idols: Making iM@S2 dlc look cheap as free.
Dude, I'd stick to 765 Pro any day...
Alot of idolM@ster stuff is acutally more expensive. Its just that some of these crazed idol fans by alot of copies of the same thing. Even idolm@ster fans do it.
9 times out of 10 they're resellers, dude.
What the fuck.
Seriously? All that money...and you choose to waste it on someone who will be repulsed by you and won't remember you for anything but being the creepy guy with too much time and money.
Just wow. Way to hit the bottom and keep going.
so? I dont see any problem here... if they sell them(cute little japan idol girls or dinner with them :D) whats wrong with buying dinner with cute girl? after all having real girlfriend isnt free either(if any of you believe that hate to bring it to you... its a myth) so WHATS WRONG WITH IT? besides shes realy cute :D
Well you're right that having a real girlfriend isn't free. However having a real girlfriend and buying her dinner is way way more cheaper than what these otaku are paying. And if you had a girlfriend you would naturally find her cute too...So your argument isn't exactly valid.
sure thing, what I meant was they consider those girls as celebrity, 12k is a lot of money and not many people can afford it but then again its celebrity so 12k for dinner of/with your dreams... no money can buy you THAT feeling :) and yeah you always consider your gf to be cute no argue in that ;)
with that cash ya got hi luxory escorts and much more
darwin selection...
For that much money you can get at least 10 nights (if not more) with a superior quality young call girl who will suck you dry, fuck you till your dick falls off, and then will tongue your asshole until you get hard one more time.
It takes a total moron to waste this much money and effort to stand near and almost touch a manufactured cookie-cutter pattern 'idol' created by a cynical entertainment industry, while rubbing himself inside his pants to a quick and shabby orgasm.
your just jealous.
Jealous of the money maybe... I also think these japanese ppl are real retards.
Truth, I wish I had that kind of money to throw in a toilet. Also, I'm not jealous of people who use "your" incorrectly.
Only of the money, only weeaboos want a tiny yellow pecker.
@ Adom Jensom. The grammar utilized is irrelevant as long as the message is understood by it's recipient. kthxbai!
@Anon 15:18
Which of course doesn't necessitate that the message understood is the message intended. If people are fine with coming across as "Hey look, I'm a total arrogant dick giving a fuck about being understood as long as I can spew my nonsense. I also talk while chewing, let others pick together what I bothered to mumble between flying crumbs of food." - well, by all means then, feel free to ignore grammar altogether, or any guidelines of communication for that matter. Then again, if people really don't give a fuck whether they are actually understood, why bother opening that facial anus in the first place?
@Anon 23:20
Cool story bro. U MAD?
While that may be true, if I were a lotto winner, I would do outrageous stuff like this to seduce famous women and troll their fanbase.
Just imagine all the resentment they'd feel after said celeb immerses from your home in the morning, then all the envy & rage after leaking the sex tape online. Now that's how you troll Japanese otaku.
>immerses
Do you happen to live in a flood plane, by any chance?
Planes flood? I better watch out the next time I go to the airport.
I have HAD IT with these motherfucking floods on this motherfucking plane!
floods we in dat plane.
"that cash, that cash", well not everybody is a bum. I make twice that much in a month, and if I'd fancy her why not spend it for something like this?
I'd much rather do that than waste it on some ho, no matter how much of a "luxury escort" she is...
Pirate King, seeing as you hate women, you should just use your money to import a brand new Thai Ladyboy and shut the fuck up about how the evil wimmenz disappoint your fat ass.
With that cash he could get a girlfriend.
...it's just a guy who owns a store.
Theses guys just need to play THE iDOLM@STER like everyone else. 2D > 3D.
Mayuyu is 3D & she's a real person. Your argument is invalid
Everyone needs a reason to live... they got that money from somewhere so they can't be that bad for society, right?
i betcha this 'somewhere' are their parents.
These BITCHES are UGLY as HELL.
There is nothing wrong Shinoda and Mao is a fucking child, that's what she looks like, she doesn't have a defining attribute about her yet.
Mariko is too skinny (for me), but there's nothing wrong with Mao being a fucking child. I mean, many japanese like fucking children. Ooops, that came out wrong.... only, it didn't XD
12,000 dollars JUST to shake a 16 yr old's hand and eat dinner with her for 2 hours...and that sum of money just for a cookie that no one can prove Mariko made? Japanese idol otaku have Bruce Wayne money.
Actually she made some cookies.She posted photos when she was making in her twitter and blog but it's impossible to say that this one is made by her.
Even if it was it's ridiculous to pay this amount for a cookie.It's obvious another way the shit management found to make money easily and exploit sick assholes like this one and the ticket's guy.
Blaming the girls is wrong too,it's not their fault.The idols industry just care for money.
But generalize is more ridiculous because there are some true talents and hardworkers in AKB like Takamina,Mariko and others.
>implying it takes 2 hours to eat dinner
>implying she won't be taking cock for one of those hours
>implying losers haven't paid even more for a girls chastity
Implying you've never been on a date.
