Good evening,
It's Kakizaki Memi

Yesterday, we performed at Tokyo Idol Festival 2018

We performed there last year, too, with the Kanji-sans,
But this year Hiragana Keyaki itself
Was given the role of highlight final performer of the day.
It makes me really happy (*^^*)

It's already December!
The Makuhari lives are getting closer (ノ)･ω･(ヾ) /excited/

The 2nd was Memi's birthday!

Happy Birthday, Memi (﹡ˆ﹀ˆ﹡)

Kakizaki Memi 20 August Showroom broadcast (english-subbed video)

Here's Memi's Showroom broadcast from August 20th. She was unhappy at being alone and felt she didn't know what to talk about. But I thought the quiet broadcast was quite enjoyable. Even after watching it many times to do the subtitles.

Sasaki Kumi, Higashimura Mei and Kageyama Yuuka pleased her by visiting for a few minutes and brought more action and talk. But I prefer the quiet Memi herself.



Memi's may be the only Showrooms I can sub, since she talks comparatively little. The garrulous Kage-chan or Mii-Pan would be too much for me, lol.

Memi talks about what they ate in various cities on the tour. She tells what she does and doesn't like to eat. She's pleased someone noted the slight change in her hair, since she had it cut that morning. She's wearing clothes from a vintage clothing shop (i.e., used clothing). Kumi and MeiMei wore the pyjamas they had on for their own Showroom, which they had just finished doing.

Good evening,
It's Kakizaki Memi.

I'm a bit late, but the 23rd was MeiMei's birthday \(　˙▿˙　)/

MeiMei is a crybaby who does things at her own pace, but is always herself, and is so charming. I think she's wonderful.

In any case, she's cute and is always a comfort to everyone (*ˊᵕˋ*)


MeiMei is 19, is she...?

Even though it's me saying it, she really seems like a baby ~(lol)

Good evening,
It's Kakizaki Memi.

Yesterday and the day before, we put on the "Keyaki Republic 2017" live at Fuji-Q Highlands' Conifer Forest.

Shooting water, fireworks being let off,
It was a live with the feeling "Summer~~!!!"  (*˙˘˙*)!

Good evening!

Zepp Namba was terrific

Even though there were lots of things to work on,
It was good that Hiragana Keyaki could do a one-man live.

Having the live viewings all around the country
Was really an unbelievable honour!
We felt tied to all of you who were far away.

Thank you very much
To all of you who came,
And to all of you who gave us your support!!!!

Anyway, it was fun ( *˙-˙* )

It has been a while since I posted this many pictures:

This is Sasaki Mirei...    [note: that's what the shirt says]

No, it's actually Sasaki Kumi pretending to be her.

Good evening,
It's Kakizaki Memi.

In the Weekly Shonen Magazine that comes out today, March 15, we have somehow been given the front gravure!

There are six pages of Hiragana Keyaki  ♥


I forgot to photograph the offshots ~

I'm sowwy... (/´△`＼)



In the photography, they used a lot of balloons,
And we wore cute uniforms. It was fun ～(*´-`)

Please get hold of it and take a look ♪

Good evening,
It's Kakizaki Memi.


Recently, Mii-Pan (Sasaki Mirei)
MeiMei (Higashimura Mei) and I went out together.


We looked at clothes, ate, did various things ~ !


But when there was nothing left to do
We found ourselves going into a nearby Ninja trick house
And that turned out to be the most fun of all ( ・∇・)

I thought of the time in elementary school when I went to Chibiko Ninja Village (*´ω`*)

I want to go back to Chibiko Ninja Village
And see what it's like (lol)

Higashimura Mei: blog update, with several photos

I discovered a post of Mei's with photos of her and Kakizaki Memi, and was going to just translate that. But then I looked back and saw this amazing photo of her:

This was taken after the Saturday handshake event, the first for which she wore twintails:

Good evening.
It's Kakizaki Memi.

Starting yesterday, we broke into March!

March, it appears, is also called "Yayoi."
Yayoi....

The Cure I like best
Is Kise Yayoi
in Smile Precure! (о´∀`о)

She's co cute ♥(*´꒳`*)


Also, this is the last month I'll be a middle-school student...
It makes me sad ~(;-;)


I'll enjoy what's left of my life as a middle-school-student!!!
And I'll work hard through March!(*^^*)

Meimei, Kumi, Shiho, Captain, Mona -- pics from the Kyoto handshake event

Higashimura Mei, Sasaki Kumi and Katou Shiho all published this photo in their blogs. Who am I not to go along?

Kumi says she and Shiho held a "Meimei-spoiling party" during a break at the Sunday individual handshake event in Kyoto. Meimei says the three of them just laughed continuously.

Good evening,
It's Kakizaki Memi.

There has been strong wind ever since this morning,
The rattling of the ventilation fan has been quite scary (;-;)

And starting at dusk, it began pouring rain (;-;)

So of course right then was when Mii-pan (Sasaki Mirei), Meimei (Higashimura Mei) and I came down for a walk. We bought an umbrella at the 100-yen store and all used it (lol).

Kakizaki Memi blog post: A train on the Wakarima Line

The point of this post depends on a pun in Japanese. I'll do my best.
_______________________________________________________

Wakarima Line

Kakizaki Memi
2017.02.10

Good evening,
It's Kakizaki Memi.

Meimei (Higashimura Mei) and I were going to take a train.

Me: "Which line? Heading to what station?"

Mei: "Wakarimasen." ("I don't know.")

Me and Mei: "...huh?... (explosion of laughter)."

[note: "Wakarimasen" means "I don't know." But a "sen 線" is a railway or subway line, like the Yamanote Sen or the Shinjuku Sen. So it sounded like Mei was saying they should take the "Wakarima" line.]

My poor way of telling the story probably doesn't get the humour across, but it was really funny. We couldn't stop laughing (lol).

Hiragana Keyaki out-of-town members may finally have moved to Tokyo

Even since Hiragana Keyakizaka46 was created last summer, I have been expecting the out-of-town members -- Higashimura Mei (Nara), Kakizaki Memi (Nagano), and Takase Mana (Osaka) -- to move to Tokyo and live in the dorm. But it didn't happen.

I eventually came to the conclusion that they would wait until the end of the school year in February-March to make the move. And now here we are. Indications from all three of their blogs are that they may finally have moved to the capital. Hiragana Keyaki can now enter a more intense stage of its training and activities.

First it was Takase Mana who wrote a couple of days ago about the difference in escalator etiquette between Osaka and Tokyo. Maybe that has to do with which side of the escalator you stand on, to let faster people rush past. In Tokyo, it tends to be stand left. But in Tokyo every corner in some stations seems to being a new instruction as to which side of a corridor to walk on, left or right. And sometimes people follow the instruction.

Good evening.
It's Kakizaki Memi.

A few days ago, I went out at lunch-time with Meimei (Higashimura Mei) to eat shaved ice (lol).

It was shaved ice covered with roasted soy flour (*´ω`*)

Delicious ~ ♥
 

We really went for strawberry shaved ice, but the people in front of us bought up the
last of it …(ノ_<。)

We'll get revenge next time !!

Celery

Good evening.
It's Kakizaki Memi.

A while ago, I was just eating salad without paying much attention
When I suddenly realized there was celery in it!

!!(゜ロ゜ノ)ノ

I don't like celery ～(._.)

...what??

Does that mean that when I've been eating salad before,
I've been overcoming my dislike of celery?!
