Hello, it's Kakizaki Memi.

Recently, the hydrangeas have been soooo pretty

We've entered the rainy season, and there have been some cool days
So please pay attention to your health, eh



Hashiridasu Shunkan...

It's now five days until it goes on sale!!




You can hear clips from all the songs on the official site now, so be sure to




For a name for the unit with Mii-Pan,
"MemiiPan" is good, but somehow I think
"FuransuPan" ("French Bread") is good, too....




Recently I've been thinking a pony tail is good,
But today I'll take my leave in twintails

Bye-bye.

The August UTB magazine comes out 23 June. Mei and Hina are on the front cover and have a good-sized gravure section. The cover says it is like the arrival of two princesses. I think Memi's string and sincere look is more like a queen's. She often seems to be sharing a secret joke with the viewer.




A poster that Tsutaya gives away if you buy the mag from them.



Hydrangeas are something else again in Japan, especially in the rainy season



This purports to be a shot of the stage just before Hiragana Keyaki's Wednesday live
at the Tokyo International Forum. (But it is really AKB in Nagoya - see comment below.)
With Memi liking the unit name "French Bread," and with she and Nina being described as "French dolls" for their gravure, it seem Memi has reconciled with her image as "French doll," and is willing to go with it. despite having said elsewhere that it was something from pre-school, when she played dolls with her big sister, and that she wasn't a French doll yet.... "Maybe in my next life." Lol.

Now here iis a gif I found of Memi getting Ozeki too listen to her voice on the album. So natural and real and alive.

  1. Thanks always for the translations. Cannot wait to finally get my hands on the album. As for the concert venue, that looks like AKB48's SSK stage which was held in Nagoya. If you zoom in, you can see 48G cover art including Teacher Teacher.

    1. I think she's of two minds about the French doll thing, and even the snow princess -- she's probably wondering who she really is, with all these experiences over the past two years. But whoever she really is, these are perfect images to work with. And they may really still be her. Especially with the "princess" part included, lol.
