Soul friend (Saito Kyoko 17th November 2018)

悲しいことが続きますね。// Sad things seem to continue

志田愛佳の卒業が発表されました。// Shida Manaka’s graduation has been announced.

本人からはずっと前から聞いていましたが本当にこうやって公の場で発表されると改めて卒業してしまったのだなと実感しました。// I’ve heard it from the person herself a while back but having it announced in a public place like this, once again I realized that she is really graduating.

まなかとはいつしかすごく仲良くなって握手会で会うたびずっと一緒にいて全握ペアも5th全握3分の2でペアにしていただけたりと、もう知らない間に握手会=まなかみたいになっていました。// Manaka and I suddenly got close. Everytime we meet each other during the handshakes, we would always be together. In the National handshakes for the 5th single, 2/3 of the time we were a pair. Unknowingly, it has somewhat become Handshakes = Manaka.

でも休業してからいなくて握手会でずっと楽屋1人だったし休憩の合間に連絡を取り合いながら握手会をしたりと寂しい日々になりました。// But when she was on hiatus and was not in the handshakes, I was all alone in the dressing room. While keeping in touch with her during the break time, it became lonesome days doing the handshakes. 

化粧室に行く時まで一緒に行動をしたのは本当に高校一年生振りくらいで本当に学校の親友みたいな感覚でした。// The way we went to toilet and do things together was very first-year high school kids like. We were really like school friends.

休業してからかなり経ちますが、また全握でペアになれる日が来ると信じていたのに…悲しいです。// Although quite some time has passed since her hiatus, i did believe that one day we can be paired again for the national handshake… It made me sad.

今までまなかの意見に賛成しなかったことが一度もありませんでしたが、卒業に関しては一度だけ"やめないで"と言ったことがあります。// Up until now, i had always agreed with Manaka’s opinion, but the only time i ever said “Don’t do it” was about her graduation.

だけど卒業を止めることは私にはできませんでした。// But, I was unable to stop her graduation.

でもまなかの決断は間違ってなかったと思います。// However, I think that Manaka’s decision is not wrong.

まなからしい卒業だったと思うので。私はこれからのまなかの幸せを祈ります。// Because i think that it’s a very Manaka-like graduation. I will continue to wish for Manaka’s happiness.

今までありがとう。// Thank you for everything up until now.

まなかのおかげで毎日が本当に楽しかったよ。!// Thanks to Manaka, every day was truly fun!

So, what's up with all the English tweets recently from SF and Sony? (...But I guess now we know?)

If you come here for an answer, then you'll find none, because honestly, I don't know for sure myself. But, I do have an idea. In the latter half of 2020, after so many years, Keyakizaka46 YouTube finally removed region restrictions on its latest uploads. One of which is the performance video from Darekane. Overseas fans quickly noticed and used the chance to write their thoughts and feelings, posting them in the comment section just like other fans would do. Then, when "Bessatsu Kadokawa Keyakizaka46 and Sakurazaka46 1013/1209", members shockingly made a mention of it in their interviews, like Ten . Perhaps encouraged by the comments the members made, overseas fans showed their support again in the comments section for "Nobody's fault" and other videos. Yamasaki Ten then made another mention of it again in an interview released in early January 2021 ! Since then, comments from overseas fans continued to pour in, and thankfully perhaps even increases wi

ExTaishu Shida Manaka x Oda Nana x Saito Fuyuka "Keyakizaka46 Happenings"

Imaizumi Yui: Likes to collect seals that gets you a plate Manaka: She really likes collecting seals that gets you a plate something like this Oda: That certainly happens (laughs) Manaka: Ozeki also collecting it, she always take the seal from things members bought (laughs). I always give mine to Imaizumu Oda: It’s good that members are divided between those who gives to Imaizumi and to Ozeki. I also gives mine to Imaizumi. The reaction she gives to Shida when she get her seal is cute. Imaizumi would say “Thank you!!” looking very happy Watanabe Risa: Frolic when everyone are together Fuyuka: There is a huge different between Risa on TV and the usual Risa Manaka: She’s awfully frolic when we gathers Fuyuka: She doesn’t show it in Keyakake, right? To Miichan she feels spontaneous but she can also gives gentle response, there’s also time when she gives cold responses to everyone else. Manaka: Lately she’s strict to Oda Nana (laughs).  Ju
