Yes, all idol wota are gross, but which of these types is the grossest of them all? By the way, I’m personally into idols because I’m a lolicon, but I like H!P specifically because of their songs.

I have no objection to you receiving the grand prize on this.

The “true love” types just like their idols a little bit too much. Nothing wrong with that.

For me it’s the “producer” type.

How about the ones who just see them as sex objects?

I’m not sure what you call them… the “God” type? You know, the holier-than-thou know-it-alls. What the hell is up with those people?

Oh, and I have something I wanted to brag about.
My beloved rock T-shirts!

bad58a6d

I have even more but there’s just too many to show them all. ヽ(;▽;)ノ
I’m always wearing them at rehearsals and stuff!
People who also like rock: let’s have a show of hands!
I hope there are some out there reading this. (_ _).。o♡

My favorite one is the Iron Maiden T-shirt in the bottom right!
Uwaaah. So cool!

Rock. Yay.

to train their sense of rhythm

Sato-san often teaches us 12th gen proper dance steps and ways of keeping the beat. 035
A while back she even made us a CD to practice our sense of rhythm with. (;_;) 031
Her kindness knows no limits. (;_;) 035

It was for real.

I want to hear this.

She “made” it? What does that mean? She literally used some digital audio software to make her own tracks?

3: 名無し募集中。。。 2015/01/24(土) 23:25:41.92 0.net
It’s just a CD of Maa-chan going “tantaka tantaka” over and over again.

Fukuda Maro:
“I want to become the Maro of the World.
Right now I’m just Saitamaro.”

Is she dissing Saitama?

She must’ve spent ages trying to come up with that joke.

“Saitamaro”! LOOOOL

It was.

I don’t think the situation was really that urgent.

8: 名無し募集中。。。 2015/01/22(木) 03:35:35.32 0.net
This is the kind of consideration for others that’s required from the leader of H!P.

14: 名無し募集中。。。 2015/01/22(木) 03:40:05.02 0.net
It must’ve been necessary to make sure of Kanatomo’s boobs.

6: 名無し募集中。。。 2015/01/22(木) 03:34:26.19 0.net
It wasn’t completely necessary, and yet, it wasn’t completely unnecessary either. In other words, I don’t think it’s a matter we really needed to have a thread about.

Best of Wota in Translation 2014

Posted by Henkka on December 31, 2014
Posted in: 2ch. 16 comments

2014 is nearly over and done with, and thus it’s time to look back & see what the year had to offer.

Please note that this list is not in order of best to worst, and that not all of these threads even originate from 2014. It’s simply a list of what I thought were 30 of the best threads posted on Wota in Translation this year, in the order they were published. Also, while these two weren’t threads, I want to give a special mention to the great interview with Lehua and the Hello! Shop Q&A with Sayu.

Did I miss anything? What were your favorites from 2014?
