「初めての握手会 / 襲名キララ」 (Hajimete no Akushukai / Shuumei Kirara)
“Handshake Debut / Succession Kirara”
Episode 06 is the first AKB0048 episode I was truly drawn into, and not because of its usual pomp and flair. Following that up is a good dose of developments and revelations in episode 07. At this point, I have to say: I’m liking the direction the show is headed.

「それぞれの休日」 (Sorezoreno Kyuujitsu)
“Their Day Off”
It’s disappointing to see AKB0048 doing nothing to change my standing opinion that there’s nothing quite as boring as watching people doing jack on their day offs.
