AKB48 and the 'Call of the Wota'

YO's rating: B- | Chris is just now realizing what the Don Quixote Hotel's eighth floor really is -- a crackerbox of a "theater" with all kinds of sightline problems for many of the mesmerized wotas who cram into that hot spot every night to see one of the finest acts in Tokyo. Choice of DVD, as Chris has realized, is limiting in that only one portion of AKB48's legions is glorified. The second concert DVD and both "normal" and "shuffle" versions of the first major concert are AKB48 course prerequisites.
