screencaps preview for episode 6 next week - the final performance.

Spoiler: show

final performance in front of the Upfront judges (Hashimoto Shin, Nishiuchi). No studio booth recordings. No time for H!P makeup magic or miracle haircuts before the performance. They just look like plain girls after training camp. all tired.

if they are trying to make this a captivating 20th anniversary audition special, they should at least do the H!P magic stuff like they did when Tsunku was around. There is no flare to this audition. just bleh sing for me.

[Nayoko-Kihara]

Aw, man. Recording booth tests were some of my favorite material. Maybe they'll still do it after.. for some reason. If this is "it" for the actual audition portion of things, I wonder what they're going to do with the last three episodes.

[otaku_blue]

Aw usually they have a bit of polish up before their final performance. I want to see some subtle makeovers!

[Nayoko-Kihara]

I'd appreciate it if someone were able to translate or summarize what the girls (except Momoko) said about auditioning during that discussion at the end of the latest episode. It would be useful to have that kind of trivia ready to go for all of them to be prepared for whichever girls pass.

AbemaTV says in the next episode (Episode 6, they will be make the announcement on who passes the audition)
https://twitter.com/AbemaTV/status/936796437110702080

AbemaTV put up a teaser video of episode 6. The teaser starts with Upfront Nishiguchi in a serious face saying "The one who passed the audition is...." and then cuts to a preview of the opening talk by the panel. The OG make their predictions :
Okai Chisato is hoping for Yuriya
Reina is hoping for Kanemitsu
Ai-chan likes Kodama

[Nayoko-Kihara]

If only one person passes I hope it's Momoko (or Sayaka/Mai, but preferably Momoko).

[Denki]

I'm hoping for Goto, Kodama, Kanamatsu and/or Shutto.
