Last DDT48 Message, Hikaru Sato In ZERO1

August 25, 2010

The fifth and final video message for the DDT48 Election has been released on DDT’s Ustream channel.

Toru Owashi, Yasu Urano, Shoichi Uchida, Hideki Shiota, Yoshiaki Yago (who deserves to get in just for the guitar solo alone), Kyosuke Sasaki (audio only), DJ Nira (audio and images only) and YOSHIHIKO (announced message).

With that, all 48 candidates have put forth their opening statements and will spend the next month campaigning for the fans votes.

Hikaru Sato will be travelling over to ZERO1 to take part in the annual Tenka-Ichi Jr. Tournament. This will be his second Jr. tournament this year, after a fair showing in All Japan’s Jr. Heavyweight League. The premise of the Tenka-Ichi is based on Dragonball, with each wrestler being given a special sphere to carry down to matches. The match winners take the balls from the losers and eventually the tournament champion has possession of all of them. The grand prize for winning the Tenka-Ichi and collecting all the spheres will be a special wish granted to the winner. Maybe Hikaru’s wish will be to open a maid cafe.

Ustream Videos – DDT48 Election, KO-D Tag Title Match @ Sumo Hall

August 23, 2010

The fourth campaign video for the DDT48 Election was posted during the weekend on DDT’s Ustream channel. Around 40 of the candidates have now sent out messages through the videos making their case for earning a spot on the 24th October Korakuen Hall event.

By the way, has anyone noticed that Poison Sawada JULIE isn’t taking part in this? I don’t know if he’s out with an injury.

Michael Nakazawa, 726, Tatsuhiko Yoshino, Yuki Sato, Hiro Tsumaki, Chou-un Shiryu, Akito, GENTARO and Kota Ibushi.

That wasn’t the only thing added to DDT’s Ustream page. The KO-D Tag Team Title match that took place before the Sumo Hall show has been posted in full. So if you have 20 minutes to spare, enjoy watching Sanshiro Takagi & Munenori Sawa brawl with Jun Kasai & Kamui all around the arena.
