some basic Paruru fangirling/fanboying Japanese:
ぱるる – Paruru

神7 – Kami 7, the seven highest ranking AKB members in the election
センター – center, our ultimate goal as ぱるる推し is to make ぱるる rank #1 in the election, yay

神対応 – kami taiou – godly reaction
塩対応 – shio taiou – salty reaction:

So for example, let’s learn two easy sentences:
Watashi wa Paruru oshi desu.
私 は ぱるる推し です。
Ano shio taiou ga tamaranai.
あの 塩対応 が たまらない。
I am a Paruru oshi. That salty reaction is irresistible.

遥 haru
香 ka

the 2 most important news sources on Paruru imo are:

that site links to her schedule as well:

The Paruru support site is also on twitter:
another great source of news is
2. ぱるる情報局 – I’m not entirely sure what this translates to so I’ll just skip that.
what this site does, is monitor
2ch ( http://awabi.2ch.net/akb/ )
and shitaraba ( http://jbbs.shitaraba.net/music/27112/ )
for Paruru news and summarize the most important information
If you are going to use these sites to find news on Paruru and post or tweet it elsewhere,
for example here on stage,
please always cite your source because it is common courtesy
and helps others to to trace back information.
3. Then there is the Shimazaki Haruka listing on CDJapan,
which is slow to update, but it does have the most important releases by Paruru:
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/person/500004141
So for example it has the doge photobook (AKB48 no Inu Kyoudai).
The price, by the way, 1111 yen,
when pronounced in Japanese: wan-wan-wan-wan,
is the sound of a dog barking in Japanese: wan!:
Also, it has Paruru’s photobook ‘Paruru, Komaru.’
