"I Don't Know Which One Is Oshima or Maeda" : Daisuke Naito Is Confused

On June 10, all the morning shows were full of 'AKB48 Election'. It is hard to believe there are that many AKB fans among their audiences, however this topic was continued to be aired all day long.

Daisuke Naito, a professional boxer, who appeared on 'U-gata TV' (Hokkaido Bunka Hoso) was so confused. The topic of the night was again 'AKB48 Election', but he had no idea what was going on since AKB48 was out of his interest. Naito's confusion reflects those of 'daddy's generation'.

"I don't know which one is Maeda or Oshima...". He has heard of their names and seen their faces, but cannot distinguish them. One of the broadcasters explained that "Maeda has become the top again" but all he got from Maeda was "I see...". There was a quiz about AKB48 for Naito and others who were unfamiliar to this group.

AKB48 was born in 2005. What was the incident happened in Akihabara 48 Theatre? - The answer was "There was no audience in the first month and one day, there were only 7 people." Itis a tough question not only for Naito, but for most audiences. Naito thought about it for a while and said, "Stabbing incident?". For him,the only incident in Akihabara was the stabbing incident. He began to get tired of the topic on AKB48, and when they were talking about the members with love scandals, he made a bizarre comment, "I'd take TAKAHIRO (EXILE) over Wentz".

On the other hand, Ryota Yamasato (Nankai Candies) was disappointed in one of the morning shows that Mayu Watanabe was not ranked in top three. Yamasato is only two years younger than Naito, but he is following the election. However, Naito's reaction is closer to those of all dad's generations. Among them, Tomomi Itano is the most popular one, but they are not voters in the election.
