Too Much Idea

  airi: if i were to describe my role in one word, it would be "decisiveness (決断)". this character makes a lot of decisive decisions, and i'd be happy if you could pay attention to that yu: i don't really wear something vintage like this (costume), so it's a new experience for me! what i like about this rock t-shirt is this American footballer-looking man reina: my character has a high twintail hair and bold make-up, which is something i do for the first time. in the story, my character is someone whose true intentions are hard to read and chilling, but when i was at school i was someone who put up a cool act, so this role feels quite right for me. when i looked back to it, i think she was easy to act mc: the other members seemed surprised too, but you were someone who put up a cool act? what do you mean exactly? reina: like doing... stuff that i think are cool... mc: everyone started to laugh itoha: the character i acted as is someone very cheerful and the heart ...

SOURCE Right after she learned that she was selected to join her first senbatsu, she said, “I felt happy, but my feeling of anxiety was great as well. As I had the opportunity to see the figure of my seniors from up close, I couldn’t help but to wonder if I possessed the necessary ability to join them there?” But her feelings gradually changed as they progressed through the production period, such as the MV filming. “This song is one that has a lot of smiling. In the MV there are scenes where I shared eye contact with seniors and we smiled together,” so she said happily. “The seniors welcomed me so warmly, and the Buddies gave me a lot of kind words. I received support from everyone around me, and I’ve become able to sincerely enjoy it. Now I feel more excited than I am anxious.” The newest title song greatly differs from the previous single with its refreshing melody, and she commented, “It’s completely different from all the title songs so far, and I think that it is a touch differen...

https://youtu.be/aLtGdFKQJP8 from 22:20 Q takahiro-san choreographed for akb group and sakamichi group, but is there is any member that you think to be exceptional? Takahiro: it's hard to narrow down to just one person! there is a song that i choreographed recently, "the growing up train", and i think that the girl who centered that song is the most suited for it: fujiyoshi karin-san. she is someone so expressive. what amazing about her is how she breathe life into songs. each song came to life on its own. concert are something that she does multiple time, right? but every time she would say things like, "i think i feel scared of this song today" or "i'm really feeling something today" or "i nailed it today". every time she perform a song, instead of doing the same thing again and again, she tries to find what she can do on that day. so i think that the songs must be happy to be performed by her. they are brought to life MC: so that mean...

Good evening. It's Inoue Rina. This will be my final blog! Sometime has passed since my graduation ceremony, but I'm so happy that I was able to be sent off by everyone in such a wonderful way. I will never forget the Inoue calls that everyone has given. When I spoke with the Buddies, so many of you told me, "Please be happy!" And other than "Of course!", I'd like to tell everyone how I feel the happiest right now because I received so many love from all of you! These past seven years has truly been fun. I will continue to enjoy every day with all the power that you have given me! I am truly grateful to everyone who has met Inoue Rina. Truly, truly thank you very much. I wish Sakurazaka46 and Buddies lots of happiness from now on. Well then! Thank you very much for reading this blog until the end, for reading it all these time. Bye-bye~ 🦒

  matsu: i think of Yamashita shizuki-chan  someone with nerves of steel, she's reliable. she was entrusted with being the title song center for two times in a row, and i never really seen her struggling with it. of course, she might have just been hiding it from me, though perhaps you were thinking a lot on your own or relying on someone else for it, and like... it's totally fine if you'd like to rely on me as well... but yeah, that is just how reliable you seem to me shizu: ehh~ thank you very much... matsu: you doesn't see yourself that way? shizu: oh no, i do think i'm reliable. ofc. but i think that the fans doesn't think of me in that way matsuri: you're a klutz like... being unable to do the things that you claim you can. but when we work together, i do think that she is reliable matsu: so, if we were to form a pair... what point of similarity do we have? shizu: i think that we are quite the opposite. matsuri-san is tend to be indecisive, for exam...

Source Q From here on I would like to ask regarding your activities in Sakurazaka46. It has been three years since Matsuda-san was selected to be the captain in November 2022, but how do you look back to your days as a captain until now? Matsuda: When I first succeeded it from the first captain, Sugai Yuuka-san, I felt afraid to be compared because Sugai-san was so great; there was a huge pressure to “properly do it”. I often cried from pressure before and after a concert, where I am frequently entrusted to lead the MC sessions. There were times when I was unable to properly convey what I needed to as a captain through MC, and it made me feel down. Because of that I didn’t have the confidence to say “I’m the captain”, and my first year was truly filled with many worries. But as I had more opportunities to speak publicly and gained experience, I started to slowly have confidence from my second year. Q These days you are used to leading MC session even during concert, but I see that you ...
