Good evening.


Did you see Whisper of the Heart today?

I thought of how many times I went to the library back home
To watch it.
The feeling of nostalgia gave me a tug in the chest.



And also,
Miho-chan's photobook Hidamari
Comes out next eek.


I got a preview,
And it's a warm and adorable photo collection,

ChanMiho signed it for me! Happy

Good evening


It's already the end of February, eh... 
Will it steadily get warmer now?



Ah!!

The photobook, Koko Kara,
Will only have the other-cut photobook bundled with it
Until February 28.

It's 64 pages!! 


Various photos are in it that I thought
It was a shame didn't make it into the main book.

Including photos that I love

Kakizaki Memi: New Hustle Press gravure

A small new gravure online from Hustle Press, along with a Koike/Kakizaki gravure book now on sale.

From the new gravure:

Keyakizaka46 members celebrate Twintail Day!

February 2 is Twintail Day, and some members of Keyakizaka46 celebrated in the proper way, by posting photos of themselves in twintails in their blogs:

Keyakizaka46 has made amazing progress, working hard day by day

Translation of an essay on BLT magazine's website. By Hirata Makoto 平田真人. Published August 10, 2016

________________________________________________________

In their second year, Keyakizaka46's dynamism is advancing and becoming deeper every day.

A summer-evening breeze shook off the day's humidity as I walked toward Zepp Diver-City Tokyo. As I entered the building and descended the stairs toward the hall, my heart filled with emotion. On November 14th of last year, when I saw the same group in this same hall, I could not have imagined how different my expectations would become nine months later. 

The image of those girls rigid with nervousness, rehearsing for their first event in front of fans, rose to my mind. When they came out on stage from the wings, the staff had evidently told them to "smile and wave happily," and their faces were frozen in those smiles.

This is now a nostalgic memory. At that time, when they couldn't hold back tears doing their self-introductions, voices breaking with nervousness, it was impossible to imagine the sort of group they would become. Considering what they are now, one can only laugh.

Oda Nana weeps all the way through her self-introduction at first event last November,
her voice breaking, but never pauses

August 8, 2016. In the gathering twilight of Odaiba, crowds of fans were jumping with excitement at the Tokyo Idol Festival (TIF). One of the venues, Zepp Diver-City, was packed with people waiting for a live performance by Keyakizaka46. In the choking heat of the crowd, the guitar sounds of Overture (Version 3) began to flow. The floor grew even hotter, and innumerable penlights waved.

First Live 

Hello. (｡･ω･)ﾉ

Today is all sorts of photographs!

To everyone who came to the handshake event, thank you very much!
Were Saturday and Sunday real? Were they a dream? Today I'm in this strange mood where I'm not really sure, lol.

(from left: Mana, Katoshi)

What do you think of Hiragana Keyaki's new outfits??
Right in the midst of the cuteness, bang!, there's the cool.
I think they're great! (*'∀'人)*+ 
Actually, the colours are the same as Kanji Keyaki's, but reversed!

Koike Minami talks about overcoming her shyness

Here's Mii-chan's blog post from Saturday evening, the night before the handshake event in Yokohama, the last one for Silent Majority:

Hello, everyone,
Good evenin' panda \( ¨̮ )/

Thanks for all you did today.

Tomorrow is the last day of handshake events
For our first single, Silent Majority.

The handshake events started in Kyoto in May
And suddenly, here we are at the last one.

Hair flopping around on my shoulders

Koike Minami's fear of flying

In her Sunday blog post, Imaizumi Yui tells the story of sitting beside Koike Minami on the flight back to Tokyo from Nagasaki on Saturday evening.

Even before the plane started moving, Mii-chan told her she was scared of planes. When it did start to move, tears sprang to her eyes. And when it actually started racing down the runway, Mii-chan grabbed Zuumin's arm, buried her head against her and was weeping and crying out loud.

In her Monday blog post, Akimoto Matasu wrote about meeting Keyakizaka members on Saturday:

...

Recently, the Keyaki-chans had their handshake event near ours.
I was able to speak with some of them ～♪
And take a few photos!

Nagahama Neru

I'm still texting with Neru, as always♪
To have someone who works so hard in difficult circumstances depend on me...
She's such a cute little sister (*^^*)
