Keyakizaka46 Ponkotsu Janken Battle

This video footage was the part of the Keyakizaka46 regular TV program called  “Keyakitte Kakenai?”, ”Ponkotsu janken Battle” in  which the two idols played  Japanese game ” Tataite Kabutte Jyankenpon”  against each other.  ”Tataite ” means ‘to hit’, whereas ”Kabutte” means ‘to Put on (a helmet)’, so the game looks similar to a ’hit or defense’ rock paper scissor game.

The member on the right hand side is Rika Watanabe( Berika), and on the left hand side is Neru Nagahama( Neru). They are the clumsiest members of the group, so you can find the video they play very funny.

 

 

・Roundup

Some comments by Japanese fans are as below.

 

“Neru is too slow!!”

“Berika hits too weakly.”

“Both of them are funny! “

・TIC’s tutrial, by Chief Editor

At first minutes,  I felt a little uneasy because they were so odd and the program wasn’t that interesting. But they warmed it up more than I expected! Though Keyakizaka46 is considered rookie in Jpop scene , because of their efforts and Nogizaka46’s persona. They will appear on ”NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen”,the prestigious  annual contest between male and female singers on New Year’s Eve and so popular  in Japan. I want Keyakizaka46 to change the Jpop scene by their larger popularity than now!
