Now, AKB48 has grown into a national idol group.
Akihabara's exclusive theaters are full every day.
The number of fans continues to increase, and the number is already a social phenomenon.
Here is one question.
Who is the strongest AKB48 fan?
There!
AKB is determined to be held!
On the same day of March, AKB48 Theater will have a written test for the first preliminary round.
Although it is the first preliminary round, the questions are...
Questions that cannot be answered unless you know the members' profiles...
Questions about this AKB...
There are many questions that require a lot of knowledge.
And tonight!
Five strong fans who scored high grades in the first preliminary round will be gathered on Japanese television!
The true number one AKB48 fan is determined!
This program is brought to you by the following sponsors!
Now, let's call in the five challengers who have passed the first test!
These are the people!
[applause]
These are the five strongest fans who passed the first test!
Let's find out how passionate they are!
What does "sensei" mean?
I was a teacher.
You were a teacher?
Yes, I was a teacher.
But I loved AKB so much that I quit my job and came back to Tokyo.
Who are you a fan of?
Takahashi Minami.
Who do you like about Takahashi Minami?
He's the only person I like in all of humanity.
You like everyone else?
More than your parents and siblings?
No, not at all.
If it weren't for Takahashi Minami, I wouldn't be alive.
You like Takahashi Minami that much?
Yes, I love Takahashi Minami.
Good morning, Mr. Meron.
Good morning.
What are you doing now, Mr. Meron?
I'm not working right now.
How many times do you go to the theater a month?
I go there about 20-30 times a month.
About 20-30 times a month?
How many times do you go to the theater?
About 800 times.
800 times?!
Yes.
That's a lot of work, isn't it?
Yes, it is.
Is that why you quit your job?
Yes, it is.
You went too far to the theater? You're fired!
What are you talking about?!
Also, a little over 19 years of age, Mr. Takayuki, who is said to be the life of Nakagawa Haruka,
and Mr. Dadaaki, who is said to be the number one self- proclaimed "Oshima Maiyoshi", joined the show.
And...
Mr. Metropolis, you passed the written test of the preliminary round of AKB.
Thank you very much!
But you're all tough guys, aren't you?
No, we're tough guys.
Have you ever been beaten up for that?
No, we haven't studied hard or anything like that.
But we've studied harder than anyone else and I think that's the result of it.
I feel like I'm going to get a nosebleed.
No, it's not like that.
The five of you show your passion, but...
Actually, the other side of this curtain is the stage of the final round.
AKB's members are waiting for you!
However, we're going to hold the final preliminary round for you.
It's not going to be easy.
There are only three people who can go around the other side of this curtain.
With that said, the final preliminary round will begin with the five strongest members!
The rule is 2pt players' push-up quiz.
However...
If you know the answer, please raise your hand while shouting out your nickname.
Now, here's the question.
In 2006, on November 3rd, what was AKB48's first concert?
"Uraro"! "Uraro"!
"Love" "Myoromorista"!
"There is no pillar that I wanted to love"!
Correct!
Now, here's the next question.
Among AKB48 members, who joined without taking any auditions?
"Takaro"!
"Sensei" "Shina" "Mariko"!
Correct!
Amazing!
1pt!
As expected, the final preliminary round will continue with the five strongest members!
And...
Birthday Night
Correct!
Amazing!
With that said, let's start with 2pt players' push-up quiz!
Um...Akuma no Kusukai. Correct!
Mr. Tadaki won!
Congratulations!
Sensei, Mr. Tadaki won the match and advanced to the finals!
There is only one chair left in the finals!
The answer is...
Please do your best!
It's a question!
In 2008, on August 23rd, AKB48 held their first outdoor live performance!
Live DVDs will be released, but AKB48 Summer Festival is not limited to live performances!
Among them is "Ohori Megumi" and "Kasai Tomomi"...
Can I say the last question?
Yes!
"School Mizugi" by Metropolis-san!
Correct!
Amazing!
The question is...
"Ohori Megumi" and "Kasai Tomomi"'s unit songs "Oshibe" and "Meshibe" and "Yoru no Chouchu" were performed, but...
What was Ohori wearing at the time?
"School Mizugi"!
Correct! Well done!
With that said, Metropolis-san wins 2pt!
Amazing!
Metropolis-san miraculously answers correctly and makes it to the finals!
With that said, these three strong men will compete in the finals!
Unfortunately, Takayuki-san and Melon-san cannot go to the studio.
Well, since we're here, we'd like to say a few words to AKB48 and have them leave.
Let's start with Takayuki-san!
I'm glad I made it this far by passing the preliminary round!
Oh!
Applause!
Yes!
With that said, Melon-san!
It's frustrating, but good luck with recording, everyone!
How kind!
Let's do our best!
How kind!
With that said, I'd like to introduce the final stage to the three men who won the final preliminary round!
Yes!
It's the entry of the finalists for AKB!
The final round to decide the No. 1 AKB48 fans begins now!
Chikoushi!
Sata-san!
Yes, what's up?
It's open, but who's going to sit there?
Oh, you've noticed it well!
Actually, I've heard about it, and it's from the entertainment world!
Entertainment world number one!
I know about AKB!
There are some people who are proud of themselves, so we've prepared a special segment for you!
Now, let's call out the No. 1 AKB fans in the entertainment world!
Here they are!
Hello!
You're trendy, aren't you?
Yes, I'm a trendy angel!
Hello, nice to meet you!
AKB48 said...
I wanted to meet you...
No, I wanted to shave you.
I didn't say that!
Zu.. pas...

A young entertainer of Yoshimoto industry, a trendy angel.
These two are getting popular with their bald rap.
They are AKB48 Wonder Boyz.

Please have a look at them.
This is me, isn't it?
I'm getting popular with my bald rap.
This is evidence of it.
Please have a look at it.
You're disgusting, you and Miyazaki, what do you think of this?
Eh, it's like, I'm surprised.
With that said, with the three who made it past the final qualifier, along with the trendy angels, it's finally time for the final round!
The rule is a 10 point player's quick quiz.
The winner will lose their right to answer the next question. It's a simple skill showdown!
The number one AKB fan is this person!
It's a gold medal!
Originally, official gold medals were made only 100 pieces right after AKB48 was formed.
This is a special gold medal made by the same producer of the show, and it's one of a kind in the world!
Do you want it?
Yes!
Do you want it?
Do you want it?!
