RKJ Report April 1st 2013. Good Bye JKT48?
by Angga · April 2, 2013
Long story short, let’s get down to the main business for this review, the MC session.
Melody is the one suggesting for the topic this time and she chose : Our Deepest and Darkest Secret. Which somehow created a tension between the girls and the fans.
Read the report for more…
では前置きなして、この記事の一番のポイントでであるMCセッションの話へ早速いこう。
メロディの発案がすべての始まりだった。彼女が「自分の一番の秘密」をMCのテーマにしようと言っ出した。この提案はメンバーとファンの間に少なからぬ緊張感をもたらした。
ではリポートを続けよう。
Jeje told a story that she have someone she hates on her school. So much the hates building up in her, she decided to push that girl down from the stairs ending up with the girl is now still in a coma. And there’s absolutely no sorry from this new criminal in town that soon the police gonna search.
Ayana told us a story about a member she hate, a lot. She said that this particular member is always faking her loli attitude and that annoyed her to the point of no return. Cindy knows that Ayana is talking about her and thus, protesting Ayana for her not-so straightforward way to states what is in her mind.
Melody…she told us that soon she will be continuing her studies overseas for a master program and so far, all the processes has been done smoothly. “Please keep on supporting me,” she said while holding her tears which makes us even more confused and started to think that this is perhaps, the downfall of JKT48 Generation 1.
Next is Delima who said that she already sent away her application for Sousenkyo which makes us even more confused. What the heck is happening? Isn’t only Haruka and Akicha eligible for the Sousenkyo? But oh well, we still have to support her anyway.
Cindy now, in which Ayana yelled at her for being too long in telling her stories. The tension between Ayana and Cindy is getting higher and we all afraid that we might have a physical quarrel between the members soon, very soon.
Cindy told us that she actually hate one of the members too. The one who always “Acting” – as Cindy claimed- to wrote many typos in her tweet. “I mean, it was an obvious big fat lie to wrote so many typos,” Cindy claimed. She doused it more with “Always her bang, her bang. Hair spray again and again. A couple of hair spray cans is not enough for this brat!”
Ayana who heard that is losing her temper and before those girls started to bite and hurt each others, Kinal and Melody tried their best to separated those two and to prevent further fights between them on stage.
After She could get the situation under control, Kinal continue with her story. She already have a dream since she was a child to become a policewoman. And she did apply for the policewoman entry test behind the officials’ back together with one of her friend. Both of them did great and passed the physical training and test with flying colors. A couple of tests more and she will be accepted in which, she will have to live on a boarding school for Policewoman. Kinal said all her story with a redden nose and watery eyes. Dear God…after the center and now the captain is telling us an indirect sign for a graduation??
And now Rica. Rica said that this is a moment of truth as she will announced something, that she will coming out of the closet. Rica admitted that she has this special relationship between her and Sendy in which the reason why she always there with Sendy, just the both of them, every single time and this relationship is not your usual BFF one. Rica indirectly admitted the she is a lesbian by then saying that she has no interest in boys. This makes some of the fan girls in theater hysterically screaming. A couple of fan girls standing beside me looked so happy at that time.
Sonia said that she is actually hate to have the crybaby image and started to indirectly blamed Stella for all the mischief she had. In which Stella replied with that she feels tired with all the farce in JKT48 and decided to stop all JKT48 activities temporarily for an undecided time.
Dhike said that she has this special thing and she was gifted with a sixth sense where she could understand what people are telling in their heart. While Frieska said that the way she is in JKT48 is all just a fake. She admitted that she is a thug and a leader of a woman gang in her school doing some sort of teenage criminal activities in which she decided not to tell much further.
Ghaida…remember how we always joke that Ghaida was born a man? She admitted SHE WAS BORN A MAN and she already did her sex changing operation. This statement from Ghaida makes some of the hysterical fan girls in the theater even more hysterical. A girl that was standing beside me is now found lying on the floor while holding her Ghaida photo pack and started to smile uncontrollably. The punch just doesn’t stop there as Sendy then admitted that what Rica said is true, and yes, she has this special relationship with Rica.
And Rena closed this special MC session with..
“I’m actually 19 years old”
ジェジェは、学校で嫌いな人物がいると話した。あまりに憎たらしいので、階段から突き落としてやった。まだ入院中らしい。警察沙汰になるのも近いと思うが全く反省の色がない。
アヤナは、とある嫌いなメンバーのことを話した。彼女の言によると、このメンバーの“ぶりっ子”ぶりにはもう到底我慢がならないんだそう。するとシンディイがアヤナのこの話に対して、持って回った話の仕方は止めて欲しいと抗議した。というのも、アヤナはシンディのことを前からそんな風に言ってるらしい。
そしてメロディ・・・、彼女は、近々海外の大学院へ留学すると言ったのだ。準備はもう出来ている。「でも、これからもずっと応援してくださいね」と涙を堪えながら言った。僕たちは混乱して、ひょっとするとこれはJKT48一期生の崩壊の始まりだろうかと思い始めた。
次はデリマ。さらに僕たちの困惑は続く。彼女は既に総選挙へ立候補する手続き書類を送ったと言ったのだ。いったいどういうことだ？今回、総選挙立候補の資格があるのははるかとあきちゃだけではなかったのか？でも、どっちにしろ僕等は彼女を応援するほかないんだけれど。
今度はシンディ。アヤナが長々と大声でシンディに嫌味を言ったものだから、二人は一触即発のムードに。もうこれは取っ組み合いの喧嘩になるんじゃないかと心配し始めた。シンディもほんとに嫌いなメンバーがいると言った。そのメンバーはいつもツィッターでタイプミスを頻発するらしい。でもそれは関心を引くための“演技”だとシンディ言う。「あれは大嘘よ！だいたい、あんなひどい誤字脱字は普通やらないでしょ」さらに追い討ちをかけて「あのこはね、前髪に山ほどヘアスプレーをかけるの！いつも２、３本は使っちゃうのよ」
これを聞いたアヤナは怒り心頭、舞台の上で危うく掴み合いになる前にキナルとメロディが割って入った。
騒動が収まったあと、キナルは自分の話を始めた。彼女は子供の頃から警察官になるのが夢で、バックアップしてくれる人もいたので、友人のひとりと一緒に警察官採用試験に願書を提出したと言った。二人ともすでに首尾よく体力テストにパスしたとのこと。まだいくつか試験は残っているが、合格したら全寮制の警察学校に入ることになるだろう。キナルは涙ぐみつつ鼻声でそう語った。いったいなんたることだ？センターに続いてキャプテンまで卒業するという意味のことを言ってるのか？
そして、リカ。彼女は、ここでいままで隠していた秘密をカミングアウトすると言った。いつも二人だけで行動を共にしているセンディとは、実は“特別な 関係”にあると認めた。つまり、二人の間柄は大親友ということとはちょっと違うのだと。リカは曖昧ながら自分がゲイであることを匂わせたのだ。男の子には全く興味がないと。この告白を聞いた劇場女性ファンは金切り声をあげた。僕のそばにいた何人かの女の子は幸せそうな表情を浮かべたように見えた。
ソニアは、“クライベイビー”と呼ばれるのがほんとは大嫌いで、そんなイメージを植え付けたステラのことを暗に批判した。その流れで、今度はステラがJKT48の活動に疲れ果てたので、無期限の休養に入ることを決心したと言った。
ディクは、実は自分には第六感が備わっていて、他人の考えが読めると言った。フリスカの本当の顔はJKT48とは違って、学校ではワルのリーダーでここでは言えないようなヤバイこともやったと言った。
ガイダ・・・、いつも男に生まれたんじゃないかと言われてるけれど、実際、自分は男だと認めた。性転換手術も受けた！このガイダの告白は劇場にいた女性ファンに悲鳴をあげさせた。僕の隣の女の子なんかは、ガイダのフォトパックを握り締めてニタニタ笑いながら床に座り込んでいた。衝撃はこれで収まらなかった。センディは、リカと特別な関係にあるという話は事実だと認めた。
そして、このスペシャルなMCセッションを締めくくったのはレナ。
「私、ほんとは１９才なんだよ」

“But of course, that’s a lie ♥”
Yep, April Fool’s from the girls ladies and gents…. Some of us were obviously knows something is not right from the girls statements and their body language as it was obviously a lie for the sake of April Fooling us all. But Melody and Kinal acting was…oh boy. If it were without the other girls telling their lies and just the two of them telling us lies, I’m pretty much sure that we would ended up believing it a hundred percent.
[TN : GAH! I hope the Ghaida and Rica♥Sendy Part were true!]
“念のため言っとくけど、これみんな嘘だからね♥”
そう、エプリルフールのご愛嬌。彼女たちの話し方や身振りで、このMCの内容が嘘だと言う事はすぐに知れていた。ただし、メロディとキナルの真に迫った演技たるや、まあなんともはや。二人以外のメンバーの話がなくて、もしこれだけやられたら、僕は正直１００％信じたに違いない。（訳注：ウヮオ！ガイダとリカ♥センディの話はほんとであって欲しかったな！）
Very loosely translated from Jyuri Nii article and various sources from Twitter with some added sauces and spices.

well actually there are some joke that isn’t funny at all, that was Melody part and Kinal part. I was there actually… they shouldn’t bring that joke, they should know that ‘s sensitive issue, specially for a center and a captain. tbh that one isn’t funny at all, …. and as the result the audience lost spirit, and with team J that perform like that … not helping to bring up the audience spirit at all.. at the end, ytd show totally bellow my expectation…. soul less show…
Well, look at the bright side
At least now you know those two acting level
i forgive them if after saying that, they give 100% on the stage…. but what i see is melody is like starting not enjoying the show, and seems that she really looked like she want the show to be end …. i only give applause 1 times, and it was on RKJ unit songs, other then that song it feels empty ….. The only person that i saw doing full of energy is Delima, Ve is doing good but i don’t know maybe because she’s not on her usual blocking, she’s not “explode”….
yeah, even when the encore chant started, the audience wasn’t that much high-spirited. if only they use this topic for the last MC session, maybe they would performed better.
The girls are into method acting much it seems
agree with Haddad, team J failed to bring back audience spirit…. and it seems that what they said is not a lie but true after all. well after seeing they perform like that, I think i’m ok if Melody and Kinal decide to grad. if they want to grad just let them go, after all, the kks is more and more interesting lately ^^
i prefer the childish kks joke when MC rather than stupid sensitive joke that ain’t funny at all. the good things about KKS is what happen on saturday, i’m afraid that their mood will down because of Dena collapse, but what happened is the opposite, they perform great to burn all the audience mood back to high spirit. and they success.
Actually that what i want from team J at ytd show. they make our mood bad, but at the end they should bring back our mood to high spirit, too bad they failed ….
As far as I can tell, I find that the jokes are funny
But then maybe that was just me as I believe every individuals have different taste when it came to jokes
Like perhaps Dane Cook is funny for you, but not for me. Something like that.
yep.. i was tricked with that false reply section thing…
really.. really… realllyyy bad -____-“
Gotcha
, better late than never 
:O shock
hahaa i understand it better now that it’s in english
well in the end it was April Fool’s Day, the members really did a great job on their MC’s like until *like some people said* Rica’s part XD
also Dhike with her psychic thing just not working really well there hahaha
the only funny things at april mop day is when 2nd MC, when Jeje pray for Melody wish earlier. and I said Amen for that
You..really need to loosen it up a bit partner. I kinda getting worried with you actually after seeing that reply.
Well maybe because i’m a bit dissapoint to her because of that…. After a bit tired from work, need some refreshment and… She jokes like that. And also lately I also feel something …. I don’t know it’s like… Well i don’t respect her anymore… I got the same feeling with cleo earlier … Just before she grad. Well i still wished my feeling is wrong … But to make my feeling easy again i think she need to prove me with he performance that she still 100% with jkt48 heart and mind. I will watch her closly on this sat if i got the ticket. I hope she can erase my “little” hate toward her
chill out bre..
just an unfunny joke, and you take it personal? more than that she’s just hit her end of puberty..
me, on behalf of the other visitor of this page, really appreciate your effort as a truly dedicated fans, but you got to get rid of that ghetto mentality.. seriously..
Lol djt don’t get too serious. seriously, I can’t tell this acting or truth. if melody and kinal tell the truth. please give support them. if melody and kinal just doin acting, they’re doing good job. cause afterall at ending the MC they tell this “aprill mop”. everyone have different
taste when it came to jokes. Perhaps, I don’t know.. afterall I’m enjoying the show. I like Kuroten and RKJ. maybe, because.. finally, I can watching them at theater again for so so so long time ago.
I don’t know.. actually, I was enjoyed the show haha, thanks for the theme of MC “april mop” so the tension of audience can be a little bit different. tell the truth, I don’t really like chant, sometime I wanna go out of the theater just because “too noisy” u know. sometime I can say “WT* with this people can they’re just doin’ chanting normally??”
It must be hard to rewriting it. It’s a much better article now. Thank you for your hard work, Angga.
I’m a man btw and have no plan to have a transgen-operation lol.
I wish the Rica & Sendy part is true, it could attract more girls fans
