Lately, I've been feeling how warm Spring is.

Yuzu mentioned it on her blog from the other day, but we went for a walk together.

The cherry blossom trees spread as it's in full bloom, it was wonderful.

I like cherry blossoms during the day, but it's beautiful at night too, I really like them.

Yuzu (Nakashima Yuzuki) is a very kind older sister. If I run into trouble, I would reach out to Yuzu and ask her for help.

Thank you as always  ☺︎

I want to be a reliable older sister-like presence for the 3rd gen members as well~

Everyone, how have you been spending your days recently?

As it's now April, I am sure that there must be those who are having new encounters or those who are in a different environment than usual.

It might be tiring to do so many new things, but let us both do it slowly without a rush, and do our best without forcing ourselves~

I will always be by your side 😌

Please eat delicious food, get a good night's sleep, and stay well~!

Even so,

I could feel how fast time flies by.

It seems that about a month has passed since Omotenashikai.

I could still feel the afterglow from Omotenashikai. That is just how much I had fun and feel happy.

I will never forget the feeling of excitement that I felt for the first time there.

And,

Using the excitement I felt with you as a source of motivation, I am currently working hard to prepare for the tour.

I feel nervous about my first tour together with the seniors, but I really look forward to it.

I have the chance to meet the seniors during the rehearsal, and I always admire them with the feeling of "So cool~ So cute~".

First of all, I will work hard toward what is in front of me in order to catch up with such great seniors.

Please look forward to the tour~ ✊🏻

Lately, I've been feeling sad because there is no meet & greet and I couldn't talk with you...

Every day, there are many times when I feel down or troubled regarding this job.

At such times, sometimes I wonder what would have happened if I had not chosen this path.

But,

When I met the people who are cheering for me in Omotenashikai or Meet & Greet, it made me truly so grateful and happy, and each time I was sincerely glad to have become an idol.

And I was able to meet 3rd gen members and the seniors I cherish and the wonderful staff members because I have chosen this path.

Every day, I am filled with gratitude towards everyone I work with.

I am sure that all sorts of things will happen in the future as I continue my activities, but I'd like to do my best while believing in the Buddies and my fellow members.

When I check the Letter Box on the other day, some fan letters have arrived and I was able to receive it.

The words that you have written are truly so kind and warm.

Reading your letters makes me feel happy and energized.

Truly, thank you very much. ☺︎
