AKB48 & Young Jump's "YJ7" have the will to win!

The scans of the latest edition of Young Jump have finally made it onto the web, and we are also rapidly approaching the first voting period for the "AKB48 Jinbocho Gokokuji Taisen".

The "AKB48 Jinbocho Gokokuji Taisen" is a gravure/idol battle between the two publishers Shueisha and Kodansha and their respective "young" manga magazines. Last year, Shueisha had similar a event, but back then it was an intern battle between Young Jump and Weekly Playboy, which the latter was able to win. A couple of girls from last year's battle are actually back again to fight for Young Jump, but there are also some new faces and former rivals.

This time, the members of Young Jump's "YJ7" team have posed for yet another simple yet cute pictorial and revealed their feelings about this year's battle. Additionally,�Yokoyama Yui got to practice with some of the Yomiuri Giants' star players.

-

Yokoyama Yui (1st time): "I'm really looking forward to it. I hope that it will be fun and that we will win!"

Kitahara Rie (2nd time): "This time I don't want to lose! We will win for sure!!"

Ichikawa Miori (1st time): "I didn't expect to get chosen and was really surprised! Yes~ <3"

Ota Aika (Part of Team PB last year): "I'm the only one with the aura of a winner! It feels great to be part of Young Jump Seven!!!"

Minegishi Minami (2nd time): "I'd like all of our seven girls to show their individual strong points!"

Sato Amina (1st time): "I've always tried to avoid fights in my life, but... this is the first time I want to win!"

Yamauchi Suzuran (1st time): "Take me somewhere if I win!"
