1. [+99, -27] It's probaly a joke... 

2. [+244, -2] What do you mean popular idol group?  

3. [+372, -2] Akimoto groups have so many members

4. [+803, -3] But from the fan's point of view, he must be happy, right? Being the only fan of his oshi

5. [+316, -2] She must have gotten permission from the fan before posting that, right? 

6. [+156, -3] They're still doing handshake events?

7. [+173, -5] What an ordinary looking face 

8. [+244, -1] Is there a time limit even if there's only one person? It'd be nice if they could take their time and chat.

9. [+20, -55] Why is she exposing and making fun of the only fan who shows up.. 

 >> I don’t think she's making fun of him. If this person hadn’t come, there would have been no one, so there was probably a part of her that felt saved. Zero and one are completely different. 

10. [+527, -1] Such a great smile, truly the ideal fan.

11. [+48, -6] Is it okay for idols to call fans otaku? I thought otaku was a self-deprecating term, and it's fine for them to say it themselves, but when others say it, it's considered an insult.

12. [+110, -4] As long as he's not some old man, right?

13. [+155, -4] That's you soulmate right there, lol 

14. [+137, -3] Having even one fan is great, right? I have zero. 

15. [+6, -7] If she was just an ordinary college student, she'd be a top-tier girl. Honestly she could probably even participate in a college beauty pageant.
