Recently,
Looking toward the summer tour,
We are steadily making preparations.


Also, I bought the greatest cute tote pack!!!!!!!
I'm eagerly waiting for it to be delivered!!!!!


How is everyone getting by?


Announcement!
A program called Neru Nechikei Online
Is being broadcast!

On NHK General

I will be investigating things
That I come across in daily life and think are amazing

It won't be formal!
Honestly, I think it's funny and interesting !!!


To get a show in my own name
Really makes me grateful and a bit ashamed.
I'm extremely thankful to be able to make a program, with all these warm people,
That I'm excited for myself.

Hee-hee. What am I doing?

Kakizaki Memi: Screencaps from the Kidaishiteinai Jibun MV

This has been a great week for Hiragana Keyaki. The three songs released to us so far are all of high quality, and the Kidaishiteinai Jibun MV is terrific.

But I find myself kind of depressed. For whatever reason, Memi is hardly visible in the MV. Some people couldn't even find her. Excellent as she is there, most of her scenes can be timed in milliseconds.

Well, I'm here to make up for that a bit with reams of screencaps. Have to make up for the blindness and stupidity of the makers of the MV, lol (that's a joke; I get it). For me, Memi is by far the loveliest and most interesting member of Hiragana Keyaki. But as often happens, I find myself in the minority. I think: beauty, grace, expressiveness, determination, calmness.

First, here she is from the final scenes.

From Fuu-chan's blog for 2 March. She tells us what the director told the members when they began the MV.

A couple of days ago
The MV for Kanji Keyaki's 6th single
Coupling song Mou Mori-e Kaerou ka?
Was made public.

When I first saw the MV
It gave me the same feeling
I got seeing Te wo Tsunaide for the first time:

A feeling of fear.... (lol)

Hello!!



Yesterday the Music Video for the 4th single, Fukyouwaon, was made public!!!!!


I totally love this Music Video.

I watch it over and over again.


What do all of you think?

I'll be very happy if you like it (*'-'*)


The way the words are so straight and strong is so much like us, I think.

A strong and stylish atmosphere, intense dancing.

This time again Takahiro-sensei did the choreography for us.

Inside Story: The making of the MV for Sekai ni wa Ai Shika nai

Translation of a major article from the September issue of Brody magazine. It describes the ideas of the director and choreographer about how to convey the song visually; reports events during the shooting; and conveys some comments from members of Keykizaka46, as well as the choreographer's impressions of members of the group.

Keyakizaka46 -- Sekai ni wa Ai Shika Nai

Documenting the making of the MV

Our little magazine previously told the inside story of the making of the Silent Majority MV. When we found out that their second single, Sekai ni wa Ai Shika Nai, was going to be made on Hokkaido by the same staff, we flew right there. Based mainly on what we saw of the members and what we heard from the staff, we are now once again documenting the Keyaki revolution. We record the footprints of girls and staff as they conquer the pressure and soar over high hurdles.

With total coverage on the scene and interviews with staff, here is the reality of "the second wave of attack"

From Shibuya to Hokkaido

Despite being newcomers, Keyakizaka46 had a big hit with their first single, Silent Majority, which sold over 300,000 copies. The music video (MV) has gone over 22 million hits on YouTube (as of August 6th). Following the great success of the first, their second single, Sekai ni wa Ai Shika Nai, was released on August 10th.

The various new aspects of the first MV garnered a strong reaction from the idol world. Expectations for the second single rose irresistibly. There were worries that it might fall below expectations.
