On November 16 and 17, the 10 captains of AKB48 group visited their first picks and Kawamoto who received a nomination from five teams in the second round of the draft meeting, held on November 10 at Grand Prince Hotel New Takanawa. In the first face to face meeting after the draft, they exchanged the feelings each other.

Captains’ thoughts

candidate/ home town/ group picked/ visitor

Rena Nishiyama/ Aomori/ AKB48TeamA/ General Director Minami Takahashi, Captain Yui Yokoyama

“Good profile, cute facial expression, favorable impression including cute accent. We told her that Team A wants her to work hard, and also looks forward to work together. It was a memorable moment when she nodded with a smile against every one of Takamina’s words.”

Moe Goto/ Aichi/ AKB48TeamK/ Captain Yuko Oshima

“I had a crush on her at first sight. She has a power and spirit which AKB doesn’t have currently, and I thought it would produce a good effect on the team. I was impressed with her comment that she’ll do her best not to disturb the harmony of Team K.”

Aeri Yokoshima/ Aichi/ AKB48TeamB/ Captain Ayaka Umeda

“Team B never had a character like she has. I believe that the power of 13 year old girl who goes forward hilariously and doesn’t care adult’s circumstances, will activate the team more.”

Saya Kawamoto/ Hokkaido/ AKB48TeamB/ Yuki Kashiwagi, Haruka Shimazaki

“We picked her with a unanimous decision. Shimazaki praised her saying that she’s charming although Kawamoto was nervous all the time because she is a fan of Shimazaki. Kawamoto’s dream is to show off “Tenshi no Shippo” at the theater, it was impressive that Paruru answered happily “Let’s do it together”.”

Kumiko Koishi/ Hyogo/ SKE48TeamE/ Captain Rena Matsui

“I think the atmosphere would change when a lively girl like Kumiko join the team. It might be better NOT to correct her home town accent because it’s one of her charms.”

Nao Yamamoto/ Fukuoka/ HKT48TeamH/ Rino Sashihara, Chihiro Anai

“I want her to make an appeal of herself more and more at ease because we are a very friendly team. Dance teachers and seniors will take good care of her training. I expect her to make a habit of storing the rhythm in her body listening the music.”
