Good evening~

Colds are going around.
Are you all in good health?
Let's both you and I be careful, eh....


A handshake event sales period starts today
And goes until tomorrow (the 25th) at 2:30pm.

I want you to come and meet me
Whenever you'd like.
When you feel that impulse,
If you'd like to...!



Recently, my father,
Said, "You should watch these "
and loaned me all three Back to the Future movies.

As it turns out, I hadn't actually seen them,
And I watched them all at once.
They were enjoyable...

All the more so because I watched them with my family.

Hello!


Around New Year's, I watched five films!

Yesterday, I watched A Cook at the South Pole.
Before that, I watched A Silent Voice.
And before that I watched Carol,
Ally, and Lion.

Oh, and I also saw Minion...
And I watched Begin Again for the second time...!


Please, everyone, tell me what films you recommend...



Supremely cute photos of Pe-chan.

Goddess...



It's very chilly out, be careful not to catch cold, eh.
Thank you for reading.

For anyone who doesn't know, "Pe-chan" is Neru's fellow Keyakizaka46 member Watanabe Rika. Her nickname is the name of her cat, Pe.

Here are the Japanese names of the films Neru saw: 

A Cook at the South Pole -- 南極料理人

A Silent Voice -- 聲の形
Carol -- キャロル
Ally  -- アリー
Lion -- ライオン
Minion -- ミニオン
Begin Again -- はじまりのうた

Only the first two are originally Japanese.











 

Nagahama Neru blog: The new film "A Star is Born"

Films,   325

Good evening.


I've just seen the film A Star is Born,
Starring Lady Gaga.

I kind of want toPut my feelings into writing,
But it feels as if it would be difficult and clumsy.


Maybe I'll just say a bit (which is it?)

It was so heartbreaking,
But after it I somehow felt determined.

The thing that gives me encouragement every day is music.
But what gives me determination for each program I do is film,
Or so it seemed to me.



For me, it seems everyone is different,
And that's a very wonderful thing.

Good evening.

I finally saw Bohemian Rhapsody!!
Even in scenes that weren't sad, my tears flowed.
That's how cool it was...


When I was four or five,
QUEEN was playing at our house a lot.
It's a faint memory, but I'm sure it's true.
Thinking of it now it seems mysterious.

What was going on...? Mother....



Look!!!
I'm in the Kanzarashi poster with everyone!! ( ˙༥˙ )

Hirate Yurina IS Hibiki

Hirate Yurina stars as Akui Hibiki in the film Hibiki. The author of the original manga recommended her, so we know she is a bit like Hibiki. But now she has posed as Hibiki in reproductions of cover illustrations from the manga, and it is now certain: Techi IS Hibiki.

Mangaka Yanagimoto Mitsuharu was thrilled at how well Hirate portrayed Hibiki in the photos, which were published by Nikkan Sports. He said that the moment he saw them, he felt a burst of happiness. He was impressed by how well she portrayed Hibiki, even down to small details. Click photos to enlarge.

Hibiki author visits Hirate on the set...and is totally tongue-tied

Mangaka Yanamoto Mitsuharu 柳本光晴 is the one who first suggested Hirate Yurina was the right person to play Hibiki, the title character of his award-winning manga, in its film adaptation. He has finally gotten the chance to meet her, and here is a translation of his blog post about it.

Going on a field trip to a Hibiki location

I went to visit a location-shoot for the Hibiki movie. I won't write too much, just be super brief.

I finally met Hirate Yurina. Before I met her, I went through all kinds of simulations: I'll say this, or I'll say that. Anyway, more than anything I was just nervous to be meeting an idol. And it was Hirate, whom I admire so much.

And it seemed that Hirate-san had said she liked the manga. This made me even more nervous.

It was a situation where it would be fine if when she saw me, she went "kyaa" and I went "waah!" and with our eyes never meeting....

But she was beautiful. The only thing I could say to Hirate-san was: "Uh... You're beautiful...." Super creepy.

But it seemed like a very happy shoot. And she really was beautiful. She was Hibiki. Her presence. She was amazing.
