That really is one of the most emotional World Senbatsu Elections ever witnessed round the world and upon witnessing Jurina Matsuri's win at this year's World Senbatsu Elections, third placer Sakura Miyawaki of HKT48 turned emotional and Jurina managed to congratulate her for being a decent rival to her.

Anyway, congratulations to SKE48 Team E's Jurina Matsui and all those who made it to the top spot at this year's World Senbatsu Elections.
