AKB48 “super-carnivore” Rino Sashihara has apparently managing to secure 9108 votes (worth some 14 million yen), thanks to a new cohort of creepy Chinese otaku as flush with funds as their Japanese counterparts.
Rino picked up “9108” votes:
Mayu Watanabe managed a more modest extreme of obsessive devotion, with only 5566:
Jurina Matsui’s 5211:
Baidu’s forums are starting to put even 2ch to shame, with big-spenders putting almost as much effort into making sure their creepy competitors know their boasts are genuine as they do into actually casting the votes:

Couldn't he have just given her the money outright? She would have probably married him or at least given him something better than a handshake.
Heck for that much he probably could have arranged to have her kidnapped and delivered to him.
Maybe he already arranged it with additional funding...
Have you been to Macau casinos? This is chump change compared to what they blow over there.
Unlike Japanese oktakus, who are basically middle-lower class, just dedicated, some of these Chinese otakus are obscenely wealthy.
I'll bet that some of those Chinese Otakus went as far as to sell some of their organs for that kind of money...
It's ipod, not ipad. Sell price for a blackmarket kidney in the States is far cheaper than 150k, I'd imagine it's even less in China. And the 13 years old that sold his kidney to buy ipod wouldn't know what AKB is.
Trolling aside, he's right about status of otaku-hood in China as compared to Japan. The reason for the different treatment is money. Society is unfair like that.
Nah, they already sold one for an Ipad.
For that much money she'd probably sleep with him!
so this is the modern dick measuring contest?
Everything is a dick measuring contest. Guns, sports, competitive video games.... The difference here is they are competing to become the biggest fucking retard in known history.
Everything is a dick measuring contest, but there are different leagues. The big ones go for guns, sports and cars and the almost non-existent go for AKB48
be glad it is AKB48, here in america we collect AK-47's
LOL! just because you're poor doesn't mean everyone is just as poor as you.
hasnt.
Pretty sure that 95% of the users on Sankaku has even seen $10,000 -- let alone $150,000. So, I think this is pretty big league. ;)
um... you greatly underestimate sancom users. a lot of them have networth near half mil or more. most of them just don't advertise it or blowing it on akb votes. Have you seen some of the figurine collections they got?
Why is it important if users here have money? Also why should someone say a guy who competes with his guns has a huge... I believe you might be non Europeans here. Sometimes I find it irritating what other cultures actually use to argue.
Anyway I somehow lose interest in purchasing a CD to vote for someone when I see those amounts. And I think somehow this destroys the idea behind this system (the promotional idea besides earning money).
TIL: Sanakaku complex is paid by AKB48.
This must be true
YKZ48 is one of the biggest sponsor for Sankaku Complex :p
I'm definitely in the wrong line of work. Time for me to round up 48 lolis and make a music video.
I lol'd
I would have believed you after the first 5 pictures.
While this Rino person fked by her manager for her success.
the last few image reminds me of the warcraft III key generator....
You evil pirate you! Go buy 9001 copies of the game to repent.
Daddy's a government official. What do? Spend your weekly allowance on votes.
With this money, you could have sex with a lot of women.
AKB48 the new aya hirano for Sankaku comp
so,what will happen to the CDs?
they will be used to build bridges and buildings and those structures will last decades longer than all the surrounding buildings
In the trash.
Dumped since it's China they'll probably be in the river.
Just go to her directly and give your money...She probably will sleep for you at least for a night
My brain hurts...
Why not just buy a prostitute and get it over with and spend your money on something else?
Like another prostitute... has to be better than a handshake.
platonic devotion
for 150k, you can pay for Rino Sashihara to have sex with you for like couple of weeks
what a fucking tard... might as well burn that $150K for heating purposes
This is almost as good as being able to print money
actually it's good. let the china money flow into japan.
I'd rather it didn't flow directly to the yakuza though.
Hey now, those guys are awesome!
And Rino Sashihara will likely see none of these proceeds.
She'll see them.. on the end of some celebrity's dick.
for fuck sake, there's other members who is better than this hypocrite sasshi, why the votes goes to her???
Speak with your money, bro. ;)
Oh my god, I thought the page would never stop scrolling down.
Nice touch artifact, lol..
Why dont he just pay her for sex? Fktard.
It's now official, AKB48 elections subject to "foreigner manipulation", to the horrors of the xenophobic 2ch denizens.
At least they can still pride themselves in keeping the annual 2ch Saimoe tournament "foreigner free", though at the expense of sharp drop in interest and vote count as a result.
What's with all those duplicate phot- Oh, nvm...
This is truly pathetic! Even if you're a fan of someone or something, spending so much money on the stuff is simply retarded.
I'm a fan of Nana Mizuki's singing voice. If I really wanted to show my support, I'd buy the CDs, music DVDs, concert BDs and whatnot... but I'd buy them once, because I don't need a copy.
Buying those goods en mass and that only to get some voting ticket or shit... is stupid! It's not like you profit from it... even if you could get a handshake or talk with the idol for 30 seconds... that's NOT worth it. If the idol had sex with you for one night, that would be nice, but it'd still be one really expensive prostitute -_-
There is simply no gain in spending one's money and life on unreachable idols!
People are so retarded to do stuff like this...
No matter what the country a fool and their money are soon parted.
So once again.. what NORMAL people actually listen to their shit music??
Thousands of CDs to keep them on the bullshit music charts.. what percentage of their CDs are actually bought by real people and not insane freaks?
what NORMAL people would buy what YOU BUY AND LISTEN TO?
LOL
