The 4 day AKB48 Setlist concert at Shibuya AX has finally drawn to a close, and in less than suspenseful fashion.\u00a0 The reason I say that?\u00a0 Well, I think all of us got a pretty good idea how these votes would end up after seeing the “halftime” scores late last year.\u00a0 That said, there were a couple surprises early on…<\/p>\n

Taking a look at that list, I think we could have predicted 24 of those songs.\u00a0 The only surprise was SDN48’s Kodoku na Runner at #24.\u00a0 Then again, had I been in Japan for the voting that probably wouldn’t have been a surprise since all the SDN fans got together to vote that song high into the list.\u00a0 To me the first two (or maybe three) nights were a lot more fun because they were more unpredictable.<\/p>\n

Songs that were notably missing from the Top 100 this year…<\/p>\n

Aozora no Soba ni Ite
\nHajimete no Jelly Beans
\nMori e Ikou
\nNage KISSU de Uchi Otoze
\nKagami no Naka no Jean da Arc<\/p>\n

and of course…Amai Kokansetsu \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

Ow well, the rumor is Shibuya-AX is allegedly being torn down later this year.\u00a0 What does this mean for the future of the “Setlist” concert series?\u00a0 I don’t know.\u00a0 Obviously there are plenty of venues that can take it’s place.\u00a0 But as the site of the first ever J-pop concert I ever attended, it makes me a little sad.\u00a0 That said, with the AX concerts over it is now officially 2010 in the world of AKB…<\/p>\n

Onto the shuffles we go!!!<\/p>\n
