Too Much Idea

Q how did your aobazaka promotion tour went? did you have fun? ten: it was SO fun! at first i was feeling worried, since i'm the only one from sakurazaka. nogi-san had two members, and yoko-chan from hinata. i call her "yoko" now. apparently that is how she want to be called, so i ended up calling them with their last names. "yoko-chan", "mao-chan", "nao-chan". it was so fun! we appeared in and recorded various shows since early morning, and we gradually become close with every break time. i don't know why, but we just started conversing, that by nearing the end of it we were like "nooo is it really ending?" or "don't go, you guysss". nao-chan had a radio work at Tokyo that evening, so she has to go back with how packed her schedule is, but we exchanged contact detail! i have more friends! i only had nogi's saku-chan as a friend outside of sakura, so i was like, "yikes! this isn't good!". so hono-...

NOTE: Not all, skipped some members. Might add again later --- momomi: congratulations on your graduation. kira-san... at first told me, "i'm recently been interested in you", and since then i also started to interact with kira-san. but i think we grew really close during the 14th single backs live. we started messing around, playing around, running around together, and i... i wished we have gotten closer a lot early. kira-san is just that much a wonderful, strange person... you are a tsundere and clumsy in many ways, but you have given me affection in many different shapes and it made me really happy. now that kira-san is graduating, i'm thinking of leaving this maman-daughter relationship. i won't say "please watch over me as my maman from now on", but i'd be happy if you could gently watch over my activities from now on kira: ofc! as your ex-maman i will always watch over your activities! as sakurazaka's speed star, i think that you are the fa...

 they were talking about sakumeets and mentioned the wedding between kira and onuma-kun, ending with nagi wishing kira and onuma-kun and long lasting relationship lol topic is looking back to memorable events in kira's career first mail: i really like kira's unique crowd hyping, like "kon-kon-konbinaato!". while i'm sad that we won't hear it again after your graduation, but i am sure that your juniors will take it on, so please do be a part of buddies who respond to such crowd hyping! i'll be waiting for you in concert venue! nagi: do you remember these? kira: i do! for "kon-kon-konbinaato", our stage director likes to play around with words, right? like "let's hy-hy-ype this up!" so i ended up doing it too for song title nagi: when we hype things up, it usually happen while the song is getting played in the back, but kira-san is 100% trusted by the director and it was just kira-san's hyping with no music. i thought that's s...

itoha: Masumoto kira-san will be graduating from the group, and so this and next week will be her final appearance in the show, but it seemed that many fans are happy that the two of you are appearing together. kirakarin? Karin: we doesn't attract that much attention, tho kira: fujiyoshi-san doesn't have much confidence on this duo, she always wondered if people are asking for us, but actually our top manager-san likes this duo. they would grin whenever they spot us together and say, "it's kirakarin!". so yeah, there is a kirakarin fan somewhere close by to us. i also took pride in kirakarin ito: at the briefing, kira-san mentioned that you have a deep bond with karin-san. what is it? kira: because of the name order, we are always beside each other Karin: ??? kira: when they ask us to line up based on name order, we practically always next to each other, and so i think that we are quite often together for important moments. so that is why i think that we have a de...

hikaru introduced "going home" club, which she has always been a part of (with rei jokingly calling her the ace of the club) rei: right, come to think of it, i never seen you talking about school clubs before. but you had lessons? hikaru: i did swimming, but my legs couldn't reach the bottom so i quit lol rei: lmao hikaru: i only did it for like a month, then after that i pretty much just go straight home rei: but have you ever taken club trial? hikaru: i have! track club, and light music club. i went to look at track club in middle school, but i'm not a fast runner... rei: why did you even come there then lol hikaru: i even raced once, with the club members. but i thought i couldn't keep up... then in high school i looked at light music club, since i liked drum... but i thought that i want to do it just as a hobby rei; so you go straight home after class? hikaru: i was the first to exit the class rei: so you love your home! hikaru: i sure did! rei; then, you are...

Source (With pictures!)  Q How did you feel when it was decided that you will participate in “Odoru”, a series that has been loved for many years? Karin: Since it’s such a legendary work, I was very shocked to learn about it, and my parents were very pleased about it. They texted me, “It’s unbelievable” and even now they still send me articles about “Odoru” that are published online. It made me happy to see just how pleased they are. I watched the rerun of the show since I was little, so even now I still feel nervous about it Nagisa: The same goes for me, as it is a work that my parents really love, so they couldn’t believe it when it was decided. When I told my parents, they were really happy about it, even now it still doesn’t feel real to me yet. But I’m really happy to have been able to be a part of such a wonderful work Q You two are a part of the same generation, while you work together, were there any aspects from each other’s behavior or manner on the set that inspire you? ...
