AISubs v3.5
Nojima Kanon!
Yahagi Moeka!
Ikeda Yura!
Okada Nana!
The times are changing.
On the fifth time, I want to show myself who grew up since I was 16 years old.
My number one enemy is myself, so my goal is to win first place again.
Murayama Yuri!
Murayama-san, congratulations!
Her good fortune is a gift.
Even if you try to give it, you can't.
Last time, Okada Nana-chan did a lot of things for me.
When I became alone, I realized that I was getting too much help.
I really thought I should be alone.
This time, I said, "Maybe I can aim for the championship."
I was able to do it, so I can fight alone.
Last year, I realized that my mentality was weak.
I want to do my best to become stronger in the real thing.
I say I want to be a finalist every year, but it doesn't reach me.
This year for sure, I want to be a finalist.
A new generation and strong people of history will shine a firefly.
The one who will win this survival and shine at the top of the group of 100 people is...

Yes, good morning. I'm Ayuiri. Thank you for your support.
Even in the rehearsal, my throat and my condition didn't improve much in the morning,
but I was able to rest my throat for this competition and I did my best for today and I ate a lot of noodles.
I was wondering if there was anything good about it, and I took off the gold foil that was scattered in the rehearsal once and my hands are yellow, so I hope there's something good about it. Thank you for your support.

First of all, in four consecutive tournaments,
representing Japan in the final tournament,
gospelers' Kaoru Kurosawa!
Yes, thank you. I usually sing in a group called gospelers.
Well, it's already four times in a row, so I'd like to review it thoroughly today as well. Thank you all for your cooperation.
Next, she has appeared 20 times in the Kouhaku Uta Gassen so far, and since she gave birth to a big hit song in all parts of Japan,
she is the queen of gospel songs, gospel singer Kaori Mizumori!
Good evening, thank you for having me. It's really gorgeous and I'm really excited. Everyone, please do your best! Thank you.
And in charge of judging the final tournament from the first time, she is the composer who has produced numerous famous songs of the akb body eight group, Yoshimasa Inoue!
Thank you for inviting me again this year. I've seen Kouhaku 20 times. Thank you again this year.
Finally, she learned composing under the guidance of Akira Senju and Katsuhisa Hattori, and now she is active as a composer and composer in all genres such as stage, anime, movies, etc.

I'm looking forward to it. Thank you for having me.
Today, these four people will judge the final tournament. Thank you again for having me. Thank you for having me.
Now, Kurosawa-san, it's the fifth time. The final tournament is about to begin. Please tell us your expectations.
Yes, I know you're nervous like you always are, but nervousness is something you have to do.
So don't be nervous and become friends with nervousness and sing a good song.
And when you're nervous, you'll definitely run out of breath. Take a deep breath than you usually do.
Yesterday, I sang and some of you may not be in a good condition. Some of you may be a little anxious.
But I want to sing that spirit and song, and I'm sure it will reach this venue and the TV screen.
Please sing your favorite song. I'm looking forward to it.
Thank you, Kurosawa-san.
Now, I'd like you to stand by for your singing. Thank you.
Now, I'd like you to explain the rules of the competition.
The rules will be explained by AKB48 Group Sports Day and Rock-paper-scissors competition's live broadcast MC, DJ and narrator, Nobutake Ichikawa.
Mr. Ichikawa, please!
Thank you for having me. I'll do my best this year as well.
Now, I'd like you to explain the rules of the competition.
Now, we'll have a singer evaluation for each of the four groups.
Judges will be evaluated for each group with 100 points or more.
Two of the groups with higher scores will advance to the final.
For the members who advance to the final, they will perform one more song.
In the final singer evaluation, the member with the highest score will win.
And for the members who won, they will perform an original solo song produced by Yasui Akimoto.
In addition, as this is the fifth anniversary, we have one more prize for you.
You will have the right to appear in a travel show.
You will go to Hawaii on an ANA flight.
There are also really luxurious personal items, so I'm looking forward to what the results will be like.
And in addition to the original solo song,
the finalist live will be held with a full band for eight people who advanced to the finals.
In addition, this tournament also has a special award for judges.
In the final tournament, one of the members who could not remain among the eight finalists
will receive a special award from the judges.
The members who were chosen will appear in the finalist live.
How attractive is this finalist live stage?
Ms. Okada, can I ask you a question?
Yes! Well, the finalist live is a great live that releases you from the pressure of the final round and lets you sing your favorite song in a full band.
It's a wonderful stage for fans to listen to, so there are a lot of members who want to participate in this finalist live.
Personally, I think there are more members who want to participate in a live performance than in Hawaii, so I think it's such a wonderful live performance.
I was able to convey my charm enough. Thank you very much!
It's wonderful! It's the best!
Now, it seems that the singer's stand-by has been completed.
Viewers of the live broadcast, please tweet with #akb48 Singer Power No. 1 Decision Line.
Now, who will be the singer of this tournament?
First of all, the first group, five singer judges.
First group, first singer is SKE48 Mizuno Airi.
Tickets are four cars in parallel
Tokyo is empty but there's nothing here
Give me a ticket for a rickshaw
I don't have one hundred and ninety thousand yen, but I'll take it
Come back and drink with me, it's hard for me to fly
I'm just trying to improve every night
That's all that was your fight
All good things turn out bad
Don't turn up and dig up
I need you to call me back
Come back and sing with me
Let's go home by last train and buy gloves
It's hard to fly in the night
I just spend every night in my head
I can't do anything about it
I don't care which one is different
I want you to be happy with me in the future
I just do it myself every night
I want you to be my girlfriend of desire
I want you to hold me in your arms
First group. Second members are...
HKT48, Akiyoshi and Yuka.
Quietly, the twilight envelops us
And pushes us behind the words of love that wander
Every time the bus shakes, I get lost in my shoulders that touch
I looked out of the window and the moon was smiling
Tonight in my dream, please come and see me
If that wish of yours comes true, you can believe me
The stories of the past are in the cards you gave me
In my heart, flowers of love are blooming
Tonight, in my dream, come and meet me through the door.
Your wish will reach my dream.
Tonight, in my dream, come and meet me through the door.
In the breeze you gave me,
in the depths of my heart,
flowers of spring are blooming.
First group, third member is...
AKB48, Hitomi Otake.
At the twilight station, my heart trembled
Fast as a footstep, indistinguishable
You're that person I loved in the past, aren't you?
One step ahead of nostalgia, I pick up bitter memories
Even if I don't say it, I can't find it
Even if you're not here, I want to casually tell you
What two years of time has changed
His gaze and my hair
Wait for each other and go back to people
Without realizing it, I get on a train
When you look at me with that downcast face of yours,
I feel like my tears are about to overflow
Now I finally understand how you feel
How much it hurts, how much I loved you
First group, fourth member is...STU48 Mine Yoshi Arisa.
The day we exchanged kisses, I couldn't even see my mom's face.
I collected coins in my pocket and counted my dreams one by one.
Look, that's our secret memory hidden between us.
Where did it break, oh friends? We stared at each other as the sun went down.
When we held our fingers together, oh friends, I felt like time would stop.
When I held your fingers, oh friends, I felt like time would stop.
I can never go back, oh friends, you looked farther than anyone else.
You always ran, oh friends, those eyes are so dear to me.
First group, fifth member, AKB48, Asai Nanami.
AKB48 - Fifth member, AKB48 - Asai Nanami.
How have you been? Even in hard times, you always smile, overdoing it a little.
Even if we're far apart and busy with each other, I always remembered your birthday.
Make sure you eat well, okay? Sometimes take a deep breath, it's embarrassing so I can't say it, but...
Thank you for being born and I entrust you with my song.
The path you've taken hasn't been easy, has it?
If you look back at the past, it will shine one by one and illuminate your future.
Even if you're not by my side, I'll think of you and walk in each of our moments.
Each of our dreams are connected.
Thank you for being born and I entrust you with my song.
Even if you're not by my side, I'll think of you and walk in each of our moments.
Thank you for being born and I entrust you with my song.
The first group's singing assessment is now complete.
I'd like to ask all of you who have just finished singing about your thoughts.
First of all, Mizuno-san, who worked hard in her nervousness, thank you for your hard work.
Me? Oh, it's me.
It's me.
It's Mizuno-san.
Yes.
Thank you for your hard work.
Thank you very much.
How did you like your first song?
Yes.
What did you think of it?
Yes.
What did you think of it?
Thank you very much.
How did you like your first song?
Yes.
How did you like it?
I don't like singing in front of people, but I came here to like singing, so it was fun to sing.
Thank you very much.
Did you like singing?
Yes.
It was my first time in a live band, so I was very nervous, but now I can go home and it's over, so I'm happy.
I'll do my best in the future.
There may be more.
Oh, I see.
I'll do my best.
Thank you very much.
First of all, thank you for your hard work.
Next, Akiyoshi-san, thank you for your hard work.
Thank you very much.
How did you feel when you sang it?
After all, thanks to a wonderful performance, I thought I was immersed in the world of music.
Also, I wanted to know the lyrics well, so I got on the bus and looked at the moon through the window.
I sang while remembering it, so I hope it reaches you.
Thank you very much.
Next, Akiyoshi-san and Otake-san, thank you for your hard work.
Thank you very much.
How did you feel when you sang it?
Well, I thought I wouldn't be nervous because I prepared properly for this year,
but when I came to this venue and stood in the middle and the spotlight hit me, I was shaking all the time and I was wondering what to do.
However, as Kurosawa-san advised me, if I sang with a lot of breath, I think I could have done my best.
I hope it reaches you as well. Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
Next, STU48's Mineoshi-san, thank you for your hard work.
Thank you very much.
Yes, well, last time I couldn't come to this final tournament and I was very frustrated,
so I think I was able to bring out everything I had worked hard for in this tournament last time as well.
Thank you very much.
Next, AKB48's Asahi-san, thank you for your hard work.
Yes, thank you very much.
Yes, well, my penlight colors are blue and white, but I don't know if there are other blue people,
but there are a lot of blue people in the venue and it made me feel like I had a lot of allies,
and I think I was able to sing as calmly and as I practiced, so it was a lot of fun. Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
Next, we will hear from the judges as well.
Kurosa-san, how was it?
Yes, first of all, I would like to give a round of applause to all five of you who finished well from the preliminaries to the actual performance.
It was wonderful.
Among them, well, Akiyoshi-san, your song was like your own song.
It was wonderful.
Thank you very much.
And then, Asahi-san, even though you sang such a good song up until now, I felt like you couldn't sing it all out,
but you sang it all out today. It was wonderful.
Thank you very much.
Another one, Mizumori-san, how was it?
Yes, well...
It's amazing, isn't it, everyone?
The world of singing...
It's cool, it's mature, it's cute...
Everyone's singing has its own personality.
What surprised me is...
Everyone's eating their hearts.
It's like...
Everyone's eating their hearts.
It's like...
Yes, everyone, I was really surprised.
High score.
Thank you very much.
It was fun.
Thank you very much.
Let's talk about your supporting members.
A.k.a.b48 Okada Nana-san, how was it listening to them?
Yes, for me it's Mizuna Airi-chan's...
This, the moment the song started.
I really liked it, and I thought I would love to sing it and master it in the future, so Makiko- san, please do something about it!
Go home after you get home.
Don't go home right away.
Go home after you get home.
Everyone was great.
Thank you.
I hope we can talk more and more after this, but that's it for the first group of singing judges.
Everyone, please give them another round of applause!
And now, we will return to singing assessment. First group, thank you very much!
Next, the second group of five people.
The second group. The first one is HKT48 Toyonaga Aki.
Thank you for watching.
I wonder if you and I can get along
Before this world ends
I'm sure one day the flower will wither
But for now, I'll do everything I can
Smile, smile, my beloved person
I'll clap my hands for an uncertain future
For you and your beloved person to be happy
I'll pray while I draw
The silence of times we can't meet
Makes me feel like it'll last forever
That loneliness, our mutual love, I want it
So smile for me
Smile for me, my love, for an uncertain future
Clap your hands
For you and your loved one to be happy
Sing a song while you pray, sing a song while you pray
Hey, come on everybody sing it
Let it go, let it go now, hey ya
Sing, sing a moment for me
It's gonna be a good day
Yeah
Second place goes to...
AKB48 Taguchi Manaka!
Don't play dumb with me
Give me a break
Don't make me waste my time
I don't have any value
My level is low
Even if I lose
Hey, do you think
I'm a loser?
I don't care about love's heartbeat
Wow, perfect game
I'll sneak into you
Wow, provocative love
It's like a child's trick
If it's not a game, it's a hassle now
Even if I lose love
It doesn't feel right now
Ha-ha-ha-game
I'll move as I like
First stage, so please don't touch me
So please don't touch me
If I can make a good request
Second stage, I can pick up something
Who do you speak to you?
Step by step, let's synchronize our steps
Final stage, it's too fast
Oh no, I'm disappointed again
You're a loser now, game over
Oh oh, unchanging game, I slip through you
Oh oh oh, sleepless eyes, even if you ask, it's a waste of time
Don't be embarrassed, this is the last showtime
Don't fly up high, it's a waste of time
Ah...
Second group, third member is...
STU48 Okada Azumi.
Don't suddenly disappear from me, okay?
To a place where we'll never meet again
I wish I could be alone, I swear
I will, I will
Become a wanderer
A girl who runs through time
Love is shining, isn't it?
Past and future and constellations will transcend
So just hold me tight
Last night's dream was golden.
We played in the garden when we were little.
I tried to run to you, but...
Even if you take me away, even if you take me away...
I'll wet my tears pillow.
A girl who runs through time.
The sky is the sea of space.
The pictures we took together...
They're flying over your shoulder.
A girl is crying.
Love is a shining ship.
Hey, let's go over there.
In second place and fourth place is...
HKT48 Sakamoto Elena.
What's the difference between you and me?
We're both animals, I know.
But you know, I'm afraid of something.
I hope you all are too.
Who laughs when they live?
It's too soon to be sad.
I always tell myself
that tomorrow will come.
Ah, what a wonderful day!
Today, I feel happy.
Today, I break my dream and break down.
Ah, without giving up, I struggle.
In this narrow world, I sing of miracles.
My life blooms in winter.
My shadow is the land of snow.
I don't want to forget this blue spring.
My friend's map speaks for me.
My shadow is my friend's map.
My shadow is my friend's journey.
We know that miracles do happen.
Efforts and loneliness sometimes don't pay off.
But still, people call the days they've walked to this day
"miracles".
What a wonderful day!
Today, I'm happy and troubled.
Today, I'm worn out and worn out.
Ah, I breathe and struggle.
It's all about me.
It's about me of that day.
Ah...
Second group, fifth member, NMB48 I, Shion.
Courage and love will save the world.
I'm sure we'll meet someday.
Lonely and alone in the setting sun.
I clench my fists.
Weekends, Tuesdays, and even Fridays.
Because my partner is anywhere.
Like tonight, I'm looking forward to it.
To my friends' friends.
What should I do to stand out?
That's my biggest worry.
As long as you have a good personality.
Don't you think that's a lie?
The feeling of happiness.
I'm sure you feel it.
God of romance.
Is it this thread?
A common star fortune-teller.
Come to think of it, it was written.
Today, I'm tied up with my partner.
This week, next week, and the week after that.
Forever.
Oh, yeah!
If it's an amusement park for a year, I'll go to an amusement park.
Thank you, God of Romance.
I don't want to forget this feeling forever and ever.
Thank you, God of Romance.
Now, the second group's singing assessment is over.
We will now hear from those who have finished singing.
First of all, HKT48, Toyonaga-san, thank you for your hard work.
Yes, thank you very much!
How was it?
Well, "how was it?" I feel like that.
I was so nervous that I couldn't think of anything,
but I'm glad I was able to sing while thinking about the people I want to reach.
Thank you very much!
Next up is AKB48, Takachi-san, thank you for your hard work.
How was it?
Ah, well, yes.
Thank you very much!
Um, I was a little nervous, so I came out with my tongue sticking out like an idiot,
but I'm glad I was able to come out like an idiot.
Thank you very much!
STU48, Okada-san, thank you for your hard work.
Thank you very much!
Um, this was my first final tournament, and I was really nervous,
but I was able to sing with fun.
Also, during the preliminary round, I was praised for my singing skills,
so this time, for the song I just sang, I thought I'd sing it with care.
I did my best!
Thank you very much!
Thank you for your hard work. Thank you very much!
Next up is HKT48, Sakamoto-san, thank you for your hard work.
Yes, thank you very much!
Yes, this is my fifth final tournament,
and I wanted to show a different side of me,
so I sang a pretty challenging song.
I'm happy it reached you! Thank you very much!
Thank you for your hard work! Thank you very much!
And for this second group, last up, NMB48, Lee Siwon- san, thank you for your hard work!
Thank you for your hard work!
Thank you very much!
Eh, jeez, jeez, it's like, it's bad, isn't it?
But, it was really fun, and there are things that frustrate me because I thought I could do better than this,
but I was able to sing not only ballad-style songs, but also songs with a little bit of rhythm,
so even with this song, I hope I can make it to the finalists! Thank you very much!
Thank you for your hard work! Thank you very much!
Well then, we will now listen to the judges as well.
Inoue-san, how was it?
Yes, eh, this second group, it seemed like the band members were having fun.
All of them chose ballad-style songs to show off their singing skills.
Especially, Takuchi-san, unlike how you look, you like songs with a lot of bad songs.
The last time you came to my concert, you seemed a little down, didn't you?
Yes, that's right.
Right? Yes.
So you're that kind of person.
That's why you're such a good person.
I'm sorry.
Also, Toyonaga-san, as expected of you,
when Japanese people sing soul songs like this, they usually end up looking bad,
but as expected of you, it was overwhelming.
Thank you very much!
Let's hear from Fukasawa-san as well. How was it?
Yes, everyone was really wonderful.
It's the same kind of impression, but the way in which everyone in the band is controlling themselves is really wonderful.
Taguchi-san, from the moment you started counting with the sticks, your facial expressions changed.
I think it would be even more wonderful if you could take another step towards the funky groove of the bass and guitar guys.
Okada-san, you are like an angel singing in the midst of a group of groovy guys.
I was able to listen to you until the end while thinking that you are a very polite and angelic person.
Thank you everyone!
Thank you Fukasawa-san!
Let's hear from the supporting members as well.
HKT48's Ichimura-san, how was it?
Yes, I thought that the top batter, Aki-san, was a little nervous, but it wasn't like that at all.
It was like, "This is what I call a Toyonaga Aki!"
As expected of you.
Sakamoto-san, I've always thought that your high notes are really... how do you say it... wonderful,
but today I really felt your strength, and I realized that you've practiced a lot, and I couldn't help but cry.
I'm really glad.
Thank you very much.
Can I ask you about NMB48's Manabe-san as well?
Yes! For me personally, I think that Sion's high notes are really wonderful,
and I think that Romance's God's strength really resonated beautifully.
I feel like I'm about to say "call" now.
Say it!
It's a present.
Thank you very much.
And with that, the second group's singing assessment has ended.
Everyone, once again, please give them a big round of applause!
Thank you very much.
Thank you to all of you in group 2.
Thank you very much!
Thank you!
And to all of you watching the live broadcast,
with the hashtag #akb48
singing power number one decision line.
We look forward to your tweets!
Let's go back to the singing judge.
Next up is the fifth member of the third group.
The first member of the third group is akb48 Erina Oda.
Akb48 Erina Oda.
Even the blooming flowers will not bring you to me who stands still.
When summer comes and it rains in the morning,
we quietly get together and pick up the fragments and collect them.
When autumn comes and it passes,
I will surely cut off the black hair I grew.
My beloved one, even if I see you from a distance,
I forgot you right away.
The only thing that doesn't fade is the smell of cigarettes.
The days I wait for you are insufficient, painful, and never-ending.
Our voices resonate with each other.
That is my unyielding, unmelting, and never-ending song of loneliness.
Come, come.
[music]
A faint farewell, words I'll never forget
Footsteps suddenly touched me
Ah, sad but beautiful white winter
Ah, if there's anything else I want
I don't want anything else
Always, today and that day
The days I wait for you are not enough
It's painful, it won't stop ringing
Today and that day resonate with each other
That's my
It won't wither, it won't melt, it won't stop ringing
A song of loneliness
Lai la lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai lai
In third place and second place is STU-48 RIO OKAMURA.
Just by pretending to be cool,
I can't do anything on my own.
It's like I like you.
"Kindness" is just an excuse.
I'll put a leaf on you. Come on, put it away.
I can't stand a weak way of life.
I can't stand it anymore.
I'm irritated.
I can't stand it anymore.
Make it clear to me, right here and now.
I can't stand it anymore.
It's frustrating.
You're hopeless.
It makes me sad.
If you love me, there should be a way out.
Hey, I'm not kidding.
I'll do my best.
Come on, help me.
If I could change my weak way of life,
I'm sure you'd like me.
It's frustrating.
Third place goes to...
SKE48 EGO-YU-NA.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5...
1, 2, 3, 4, 5!
Shibuya's T-shirt, hemline peeking out of the waist band,
bare-faced back, slid through and came here.
Shibuya is a little awkward, it's my first meeting,
five minutes ago, I slipped in while scattering people.
I've always liked him more than anyone else,
I can't miss the chance he's finally given me.
I'm sorry and I laugh, as I gaze into your eyes as you run.
It's like we're really in love, five seconds before our promise.
Goodbye
Before I knew it, the sun has set and it's time to say goodbye.
I shut up, looking for a line that would last forever.
"When can we meet again?" You suddenly asked me.
The one who gave me a serious kiss was me, five seconds before our promise.
I seriously can't sleep tonight, five seconds before midnight.
Five seconds before midnight.
Third group, fourth member, STU48 Kurushima Yuka.
I love you
Just for now, I don't want to hear a sad song
I love you
I ran away, I ran away and came to this room
Because it's not a love where anything is allowed
You two are like abandoned cats
This room is like an autumn box buried in ruins
That's why you're howling like a kitten
If you hold each other's tight bodies with kindness on top of the bed
Then you two will close your eyes again
So that sad songs don't make love
Then you two will close your eyes again
So that sad songs don't make love
Third group, fifth member is STU48 Ikeda Yura.
Wait for the cherry blossoms to fall in spring
If you leave this world
Wait for the autumn of green gold
I will chase you
If you go out for a walk
On a summer evening in Uradouri
I will wait for you to come home
On a rusty bench made of rocks
Love doesn't suit me
But when I'm alone
If loving you is loving you
Then this is love
What you taught me is nothing in words
What you taught me is the shape of true love
You carried my memories on your back
No matter how many times I got sick
No matter what name I forgot, no matter what name I forgot
Even so, I will never forget you
The third group of singer screening is now over.
I'd like to hear from the members.
First of all, Oda-san, thank you for your hard work.
Thank you for your hard work!
How did you like singing?
The song I just sang was a song I sang in a band when I joined Keio Music Club ten years ago.
I sang it while remembering my young feelings at the time.
I had a lot of fun singing it today.
Thank you very much!
Next up is ST48's Okamura-san! Thank you for your hard work!
Thank you very much!
How did you like singing?
I was very nervous, but I was very happy to be on this stage that I've always wanted to be on, and I'm glad I did it.
Thank you very much!
SK48's Ego-san, thank you for your hard work!
Thank you very much!
How did you like singing?
It was my first time on the main stage, and the fans and the judges were so warm and excited with me, so I had a lot of fun!
Thank you very much!
Ego-san, thank you very much!
And ST48's Kurushima-san, thank you for your hard work!
Thank you very much!
How did you like singing?
It was my first time on the main stage, and I had a lot of fun, and I'm glad I was able to sing until the end!
Thank you very much!
SK48's Ikeda-san, thank you for your hard work!
Thank you very much!
Yes, I was very nervous, but I'm glad I was able to sing for someone I care about!
Thank you very much!
We will now hear from the judges as well.
Kurosawa-san, how was it?
Yes, well, everyone was wonderful, but when you sing in a band, especially in loud songs,
it's easier to communicate in Japanese if you raise your voice a little more,
so I thought it would be even better if you paid attention to that.
And Iketa-san, you sang "How Many Weeks of Life Are There?" with such persuasive singing skills.
Thank you very much!
I don't think that song was intended for a contest because it's not very popular,
but you were able to fully express it. It was wonderful!
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much, Rosawa-san!
I would like to talk about Mizumori-san as well. How was it?
Yes! Um...
This group is wonderful!
Everyone is really good and persuasive.
I was drawn in!
Especially the tenth floor...
Right? Um... Are you fourteen years old?
Yes!
It was very cool and very good!
Thank you very much!
And from there, um...
Seriously, I fell in love with you five seconds before.
The ease of it was very good!
Thank you very much!
Everyone, you were really wonderful!
I would like to listen to the second song as well.
Yes! Thank you for your hard work!
Thank you very much!
And since there were three members of STU48 in this group,
we will ask the cheering member, Imamura-san.
How was it?
Yes! Personally, I didn't know how to cheer for them.
Um... The second member, Ryo-tsun, and the fourth member, Kurukuru, were still students.
But both of them were sitting down and looked really cool.
And Ike-chan was...
Each and every sound was delicate and I felt touched.
Everyone, you were wonderful!
Thank you very much!
Can we talk about STU48's Saito Makiko-san as well?
Ego-chan, you were so cute!
Saito!
No, really...
Um...
The members of the same generation as me and the senior members I respect
have been standing on the final stage up until now.
And Ego-chan standing here this time is really...
I'm not pregnant, but I saw it with a motherly feeling.
You were very cute and I really fell in love with you.
Thank you for your hard work!
Thank you!
Thank you very much!
Saito-san, thank you very much!
And so, that was the third group of singer judges.
Everyone, once again, please give them a big round of applause!
Thank you to all of you in group 3!
Now, it's pretty quick, but we've come to the last screening.
Last up is group 4 with 5 people.
Group 4, first up is Kato Yuka of NMB48.
He talks to me through the window saying even the flowing clouds are colors of the season.
I feel a slight dizziness and try to hold up my manicure finger.
Ah, ah, ah, Imitation Girl.
Ah, ah, ah, my skin is burning.
Ah, ah, ah, Imitation Girl.
I think you're young for your age.
Your voice is different, your thoughts are different, your dreams are different, your heart is different.
I'm sorry, I'm still comparing you to last year's person.
Ah, ah, ah, Imitation Girl.
Ah, ah, ah, with that kindness of yours.
Ah, ah, ah, Imitation Girl.
I want you to wait for me, this year's person.
When the day comes, the shadows will be different, the colors will be different, and the light will change.
I'm sorry, last year's person.
I'll forget that day.
In fourth place and second place is SKE48 Sawada Kanon.
Mom's hand that was rough on the umbrella
Has always protected the family
The big love I feel when we're apart
Because of my natural kindness
The feelings I can't always say because I'm embarrassed
I put them in this song
Thank you, thank you
Will it reach you?
Your smile gives me courage
Thank you, thank you
With these words alone, light will be connected
Thank you, I'm sorry
Thinking about it, thinking about it
This world is still
Mmm...
Thank you, thank you
In the sunset sky
I run home, holding my dad's picture
Thank you, thank you
Even the time we can't meet
Can be strengthened by the tears of that day
Thank you, thank you
Because I can tell you
That smile gives me courage
Thank you, thank you
With these words
Light will be connected

That's right, for the first time in our lives, we're burning for each other again
After loving each other, you, me, and you, like little birds,
want to be free anytime.
And when you love each other, you take away everything from each other.
After loving each other, you, me, and you, like little birds,
want to be free anytime. And when you love each other, you take away everything from each other.
After loving each other...
Fourth group. Fifth member is AKB48 Murayama Yui.
I've become someone else's girlfriend.
This time, like you, we'll be together separately.
I'm not the type of person who gets all excited and stuff like that, but...
You're relaxed and mature, and you're really kind to me.
I've become someone else's girlfriend.
This time, like you, even if we're watching a movie, you won't be crying more than me.
You know everything about me and I really respect you.
Will you say "I like you" to me without ending it with just your manners and attitude?
Are you stupid to say that to me? You don't even say anything.
In fact, you're not angry at me at all.
That's why I can't see you anymore. I'm sorry.
You should hurry up too.
I've become someone else's boyfriend.
In my dreams, I hated talking about hope and stuff like that.
I was properly looking at reality.
Because I only say the right things,
I've always been open about it and been quiet about it.
That's why I can't see you anymore, I'm sorry.
You too, hurry up, okay?
But I'm unfair.
That's why I can't see you anymore, I'm sorry.
You too, hurry up, okay?
Before I call someone else's boyfriend...
[applause]
The 4th AKB48 Vocal Power No. 1 Deciding Round...
No, it's the 5th, right?
The 4th vocal screening has ended.
Now, I'd like to hear from those of you who have finished singing.
First of all, Kato-san, thank you for your hard work!
Thank you very much!
I'm NMB48's Uka Kata Kata Uyuka.
Yes, I'm very happy to be able to enter the final round like this again this year.
This time, it was a very challenging song for me,
but I hope you were all excited about it!
Thank you for today!
Thank you!
Next up is SKE48's Sawada-san. Thank you for your hard work!
Thank you for your hard work! Thank you very much!
Yes, um...
I was able to advance to the final round for the first time this year,
and I've always wanted to sing here,
and I'm honored to be able to sing here.
I really want to sing the second song as well,
so I'm just waiting with hope,
but I'm glad I was able to sing with all my heart.
Thank you very much!
Next up is AKB48's Omori-san. Thank you for your hard work!
Yes! Thank you very much!
I came here with the thought of singing the song I want to sing here,
and I'm very happy and happy to be able to deliver it to fans and everyone like this.
It was a happy and fun stage. Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
Next up is SKE48's Kojima-san. Thank you for your hard work!
Thank you very much!
Yes, um...
This is my third time here,
but this year, I wanted to do what I wanted to do,
and I took great care of having fun.
I don't have any regrets. Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
Last singer, AKB48's Murayama-san, thank you for your hard work!
Thank you very much!
As expected, it was the last song, so after listening to everyone's song, I was overwhelmed and very nervous,
but I think I was able to express what I can now. I have no regrets! Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
We will also hear from the judges.
Inoue-san, how was it?
Yuiri, is your neck okay?
I'm fine!
Thank you very much!
No, but my feelings have been conveyed a lot.
Rather than a singing contest, it's like a "whose CD will you buy?" contest.
Sawada-san, I was a little nervous, but you feel like a solo singer.
No, it's a little closer.
If you do it a little more, wouldn't it be good for a solo?
Don't stop, group.
If you win here, everyone will stop.
Thank you very much.
I'm sorry I can't always touch you.
Takenaka-san, it's noisy and I can't hear you.
See you later.
Then I will also ask Fukasawa-san for a story.
Kato-san, you said you challenged it, but for me it was a great impression.
I'm looking forward to what will happen when another desire comes up.
Murayama-san, you said last time that Kurosawa- san's high notes are a gift,
but for the A melody, you sang it with a wonderful voice.
It wasn't just a gift for high notes, but it was like a treasure.
It was a really wonderful song. Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
Then I would like to talk to the supporting members as well.
akb48's Okada Nana-san, how was it?
Maho-pyon sang the song with that look.
I was overwhelmed by the gap. It was amazing.
Murayama Eri-chan, you practiced a lot with me, didn't you?
Yes, I was taught just before the performance.
We practiced a lot and talked about what we wanted to tell you.
As a result, I was overwhelmed with emotions.
I'm glad.
I was told "I'm sorry" and when I said "I'm sorry", I was overwhelmed.
Stop it!
Are you okay?
I was told "I love you" and I was overwhelmed.
Stop it! Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
You're welcome.
Thank you very much.
This has been the fourth group's singing assessment.
Everyone, please give them a big round of applause.
Thank you very much, everyone in the fourth row!
Once more from the stage!
Thank you very much!
Once again, thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
Now, with this, all singing tests have ended.
Mr. Kurosa, could you say a few words on behalf of everyone?
Yes, everyone, you all have such high quality and you've practiced a lot.
Well, I've been a judge since the second time.
If it was the second time, I would have been in the final of all tests.
The level is already raised there.
It's just a judge seat, but I enjoyed it.
Well, it's a little hard to choose in the end, but I'll do my best to choose.
Thank you very much!
Now, once again from each of the four teams,
the top two with a total of eight points will advance to the final.
We will now collect the singing tests.
In the meantime, please take a look at the singing scenes in the preliminary round of today's 20 members.
Why do I have to be you?
I like you, but I can't reach you.
You hide your feelings in my heart.
It's painful and I can't breathe.
The end of summer with you, dreams of the future, I won't forget your big hope.
I believe we'll meet again in August ten years from now.
I knew you were screaming "thank you" from the bottom of your heart until the end.
It's painful and I can't breathe.
Hold me and don't let me go.
Ah, "I love you" isn't enough, so kiss me.
The clouds will still leave their shadows,
so let's stay like this forever and ever.
The days without you and my helpless laziness
are fighting with my heart and body.
I'm unreliable and I fell down and became a cat.
Hey, when will you finally show up?
Please dye my ordinary days in your color.
I want you.
Even now, I remember your words.
Even the scenery I saw beyond my shoulders.
Well, it's like it's all over, isn't it?
It's a big mistake, it's a long way ahead, I won't forget you.
Let's forget everything and go home.
Ah, let's let it all out and go home.
That wound hurts, but I can't get rid of it.
I don't care anymore, I'll blow it away.
Look, look at your feet.
This is the path you walk on.
Look, look ahead.
That is your future.
Among the people passing by, I ran after you.
I won't forget you from that day I was looking for something good.
Your voice, your face, your awkwardness, I don't hate all of it.
Like a dry flower, the days I spent with you will surely, surely, surely, surely fade away.
I hope my patience will one day tie me up and the endless waves will stop properly.
I hope the people I love with you will last for a hundred years.
There is only one dream I will never give up.
I raise my cheek to my heart and move forward with a wish.
I will sing so that my song will always reach you.
I hope my time will stop.
For today.
Bite me.
Don't end.
Summer, don't end.
When we met,
I didn't think this day would come.
Making you despair.
No, it's over.
I just piled up time.
Big mistake, long way ahead.
Because I won't forget.
Ah, let's forget everything and go home.
Ah, let's let it all out and go home.
Ah, even though that wound hurts.
Even though I can't see you anymore.
I don't care anymore.
Let's blow it away.
The reason I decided to say goodbye
is definitely not for you.
The candle shakes with anxiety
because it was sad.
Ah, somewhere in Japan
there is someone waiting for me.
I want to sing this song.
An endless story continues in this radiance.
I always want to tell you, forever and ever.
I feel sorry for you and hate you.
Goodbye, my beloved one.
Forever, my beloved one.
Your smile that you gave me that day
gave me the strength and courage to live.
Even on lonely nights where you can't see the stars, you are there for me.
That alone makes me strong.
The times go round and round.
We say goodbye and meet again and again.
Today, even the fallen travelers will be reborn and walk again.
Today, even the fallen travelers...
...will be reborn and start walking again.
This is a live broadcast from Nippon Seinenkan Hall.

Judges, Ms. Kurosawa, would you like to say something about this judge?
Ms. AKIYOSHI didn't participate in the last round.
She was very expressive and very polite.
I was surprised.
And Ms. ASAI always sings very politely, but...
...her dynamics...
...what I wanted you to hear the most here...
...was weak little by little every time.
So, she always sings in a good way, but...
...this time, her combination was perfect.
It was wonderful.
Congratulations.

But I'm really happy that I made it to the finalists as NMB48.

I sang it with the hope of conveying my gratitude to many people.
I'm very happy that I was able to win 2nd place. Thank you!
Congratulations!
How was it for you, Inoue-san?
Yes, I was surprised at how much better Yuri can become in just one year.
I felt like she was a singer.
She didn't just sing everything out loud all the time, but she also acted.
When I heard your name, I wondered why you looked at me all the time.
But it was a result of your love.
I'm sorry.
Do your best for the second song as well.
I'll do my best. Thank you!
Thank you!
4th place winner, 1st place winner, Murayama-san, 2nd place winner, Sawada-san, you've made it to the finals!
Please give them a big round of applause!
Now that you've made it to the finals, please gather in the middle of the stage.
These 8 people will advance to the finals of the 5th AKB48 Group Singing Power No. 1 Finals!
Now we will decide the order of singing in the final screening.
The 8 people who advance to the finals will draw cards with the order of singing you have just prepared.
However, due to the time of appearance, Mr. Okamura will make the order of singing No. 1.
Therefore, we will use cards No. 2 to 8 to decide the order.
In the order we hear, we will perform the second singing screening.
The person with the highest score will advance to the finals of the 5th AKB48 Group Singing Power.
Now we will decide the order of singing in the second song.
I would like each of you to draw cards for seven people other than Mr. Okamura.
We will start with Asai, who is No. 1 in each group.
Yes.
Hmm...
Huh?
Oh, it's six!
Asai has advanced to the finals of the 6th AKB48 Group Singing Power.
Now we will move on to Akiyoshi, who is No. 2 in each group.
I'm No. 3.
Akiyoshi is No. 3 in each group.
Now we will move on to Koyonaga, who is No. 1 in each group.
I'm No. 2.
Koyonaga is No. 2.
Now we will move on to Shion, who is No. 2 in each group.
Lucky Seven!
Shion, you are No. 7 in each group.
And Ikeda, who is No. 1 in each group.
Ikeda is No. 8 in each group.
And Okamura is No. 1 in each group.
And Murayama, who is No. 1 in each group.
Murayama is No. 5 in each group.
And Sawada-san, you are No. 4 in each group.
Yes, I'm No. 4 in each group.
Everyone's singing order has now been decided.
Now, in this singing order,
we will hold the final round of the fifth AKB48 Group Singing Power No. 1 Decision Match!
Now we will have the members return to their seats for a moment.
Once again, the eight members who decided to advance to the final round and, unfortunately, have been eliminated,
but please give a big round of applause to the twelve members who performed a wonderful singing voice!
Thank you very much!
The eight members who advance to the finals have been decided, but...
I'd like to ask Okada-san of O-yume-ma as well.
How did you like it so far?
It's really fun.
No matter which group you look at, you don't know who will be chosen.
We've been talking about it all the time, but you really don't know, do you?
No, it was really quick, so it was fun no matter who you looked at or where you looked at.
I've been on all four floors so far, but...
I feel like everyone is the most relaxed so far.
And even though the young people of STU were nervous, they were able to do it very easily.
How did you like it so far?
That's right. All the students had their first public performance in July.
Everyone was shining so brightly.
Once again, I thought it was amazing.
Kurosawa-san said, "The students of STU are amazing, too."
I was surprised.
They were so brave.
They were all amazing.
It was wonderful.
I could really feel everyone's excitement, but...
We're getting ready.
After this, it's finally the finals.
Once again, the eight members who advance to the finals and perform singing tests...
The member with the highest score will shine like a fifth-generation singer.
Yes.
Let's get started.
The fifth AKB48 Group Singing Power No. 1 Finals...
It's the final singing test!
The final singing test!
The first one is...
3rd group, 2nd class, STU48...
Rio Okamura!
Okamura-san, you're here as the first one.
Yes.
How do you feel?
I'm not ready yet.
I'm very nervous because I'm the first one.
I hope I can sing well so that I can deliver my feelings to the judges and fans.
Then, STU48 Rio Okamura-san will sing.
The song is "Kachou Fugetsu".
Kachou Fugetsu
At night, the clouds don't clear up and the moon falls down like a flower.
Even the spilling light, even the falling stars of the nightly moon
Unbeknownst, I yearned for spring like a dream.
Like the rustling of thousands of birds,
Even the blowing wind, even the withering flowers in the windless forest
Can pass through.
Oh, loneliness, if you won't cry, even the song will stop.
Oh, beloved bird, tonight, even the overlapping voices by your side
Can be gently carried by the wind in the distant winter mist.
The flowers blooming in faint crimson colors I've been searching for
If an illusion like dyeing a secret forest without a name doesn't bloom
I want you to sing for me too
A bird, a wind, a moon, and a tied thread
A faint prayer for you to gently reach me
Even now, far away, for you
Okamura-san, thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
You sang two songs. How do you feel?
It's amazing. I feel like I've achieved something.
I gave it my all, so I was able to show the best I could.
All I can do now is wait for the results.
Thank you for your hard work.
Thank you very much.
Now, let's hear the judges' impressions of Fukasawa-san.
When you sang the first song, there was a lot of noise in the judges' seats.
But in the second song, I think you were able to exceed my expectations.
The composition of the first song was wonderful and I was drawn in.
Thank you very much.
And with that, this concludes the first STU48 Okamura Rio-san's singing assessment.
Everyone, please give her a round of applause.
Thank you very much.
Let's move on to the next singer evaluation.
The second final singer evaluation is...
Second group, first place, HKT48, Toyonaga Aki.
Thank you for having me.
Toyonaga-san, thank you for having me.
Thank you for having me.
How do you feel standing on stage?
It's my second time being a finalist, but I've advanced all five tournaments to the finals, and I'm very happy to finally be on stage for the second time.
Yes.
Then, HKT48, Toyonaga Aki-san will sing.
The song is "Sekai no Tsuzuki".
Sekai no Tsuzuki
Thank you for watching. Please subscribe if you like my videos.
Thank you for watching.
Why did we go to the sea we played on that day?
Why does it disappear in the passing season?
I'll invite you again whenever I sing the same song, won't I?
I can believe it, I can believe it
That starlight is the size of the sea
I can believe it, I can believe it
I'm waiting for the deep morning to come
The chasing wind blowing in my wings
invites me to the sky
Why does your smile look the same as ever?
Why do you hide yourself in the waves that come your way?
Every time we sing the same song again, you'll think of me, won't you?
I'll believe it, I'll believe it, at the end of this road.
Let's live together, in this dawn that shines.
Thank you for your hard work, Toyonaga-san!
Thank you very much!
Please tell us how you feel now that you've sung your song!
Last year, I became the captain of Team H of HKT48.
There were a lot of members who had graduated, and I felt lonely because there weren't any members I knew of HKT48.
But I sang it with everyone's memories and history in mind, so I hope it reaches everyone in HKT48!
Thank you very much!
Judge Kurosawa-san, please tell us how you feel!
Yes, I think it's a song that really makes you feel good.
The chorus and the main chorus are really wonderful, but if you sing the A melody one more time with more care,
I think you'll become an even better singer!
Please be aware of that and do your best!
Thank you very much!
Now, let's hear from HKT48 members!
Ichimura-san, how did you like it?
I thought it was amazing.
Before the performance today, Aki-san had a weak stomach.
If you eat oily food right away, you'll get a stomach ache.
But you ate a lot of hot chicken today, so I was worried if you'd be okay.
But it was amazing.
I really felt that HKT's future is bright.
Your seniors and juniors said that!
I'm not a junior at all...
But I'm glad it reached you.
I thought you were a reliable captain.
Yes, I'm glad.
Thank you!
Thank you very much!
HKT48's song "Love" was a song that really conveyed love.
It was Aki Toyonaga!
Once again, please give her a big round of applause!
Now, let's move on to the next singer!
The third final singer is...
First group, second place...
HKT48...
Akiyoshi Yuka!
Akiyoshi-san...
Yes?
How do you feel now that you're on stage?
When I'm anxious, music helps me a lot.
So, in today's song,
I hope I can be someone's support.
I want to sing a song that can help someone.
I want to live my life with music.
With that determination in my song,
I hope I can sing without forgetting to have fun.
Now, let's have HKT48's Akiyoshi Yuka sing for us!
The song is...
Riding on the back of a silver dragon
Beyond that blue-cooled sea
Right now, someone is in pain
Just like the wings that can't fly yet
I'm lamenting this pain
Hurry, sadness, bitten by my wings
Hurry, scars, become a compass
Just like the flutters that still can't fly
I'm lamenting this pain
Until my dream comes to pick me up
Yesterday, I was trembling and waiting
Tomorrow, I'll climb over the dragon's feet and call out
Now, let's go!
Let's ride on the silver dragon's back and carry it away
On top of the sweet clouds
Oh...
Let's ride on the silver dragon's back and carry it away
On top of the sweet clouds
Oh...
Climb on the back of a golden dragon
Good job, Akiyo-san!
Thank you!
You sang it all out. How do you feel?
Yes, I sang it all out!
What were you conscious of when you sang it?
I sang it while praying that my feelings would reach the person I care about the most.
I'm sure you were able to convey your feelings.
Let's hear from the judge, Mizumori-san.
Yes, I think it's very important for a singer to enjoy themselves.
I think it's very important for a singer to be able to convey their feelings to others.
I was able to convey my feelings.
First of all, I enjoyed singing it.
And when I turned up the volume and my expressions,
and my complexion,
all of it changed.
It's all coming to me.
It was like I was watching a drama.
It was wonderful.
I was drawn in.
It was wonderful.
Thank you very much.
That's all for the singing of H.K.T.48's Akiyo Shizuka.
Everyone, please give her a big hand!
Let's move on to the next singer review.
The final singer review.
The fourth singer is Sawada Kanon of H.K.T.48, the fourth group.
Sawada-san, you've advanced to the final round.
Please tell me how you feel now.
Yes, I'm just very happy.
I will do my best in the second song as well.
Let's hear it from Sawada Kanon of H.K.T.48.
The song is "Best Friend".
Thank you for being there for me, I'm really glad
No matter what happens, I can always smile
Even if we're apart, no matter how many years pass
We'll never change, right? We're best friends
I love you, I love you so much
Sorry for coming so late
I've been busy by myself
If only I could hear your voice a little
I can do my best
Everything I can't say
Even if I have to say it
You understand me more than anyone else
When I'm happy, you're happy like you are
When I'm down, you scold me
Thank you for being there for me
I'm really glad
No matter what happens, I can always smile
Even if we're apart
No matter how many years pass
We won't change, will we?
That you get through
I love you
Thank you for your hard work, Sawara-san.
Thank you very much.
How do you feel about singing a song?
About singing a song...
I was very nervous.
At first, I challenged myself a little bit,
but I was able to go all out, so I'm glad.
Thank you very much.
How about you, Inoue-san, the judge?
You challenged yourself to sing a falsetto, didn't you?
Yes.
How was it?
The song.
How was the song?
How are you feeling right now?
As for how it was...
It felt really good.
I'm not sure if I'm good at singing a falsetto or not,
but I like it,
and I'm very happy and happy that I was able to sing it in this song.
I'd like you to sing one more song.
I'll also write a song, so sing it for me.
Really?
Thank you very much.
Now, let's hear what SKE48's Saito Mikoto-san has to say.
Actually, I participated in Kanon-chan's audition.
Ever since then, my singing has been much better than everyone else's,
and I've always wanted SK to have me.
And now, after all these years, I'm able to sing falsetto again.
My singing has become many times better than before,
and I think I've become someone like a friend.
I want to continue working hard like this.
Really.
You're wrong.
You're wrong?
Maiko-san is a mom.
Ah, yes, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Maiko-san is a mom.
Yes.
You've worked hard.
Thank you very much.
What a splendid combination.
Thank you very much.
SKE48's Kanon Sawada-san, please give him a big round of applause.
Thank you very much.
Let's move on to the next singer review.
The final singer review.
Fifth place goes to AKB48's Murayama Yui-ryu, 1st place in the 4th group.
Murayama-san.
Yes.
How do you feel right now?
Well, of course I'm nervous, but there's only one thing I can do now that I've come this far on my own, so I hope you'll accept and write something for me.
I'll do my best!
Murayama-san, what kind of feelings and emotions do you want to put into your next song?
The reason I chose this song is because it's a song that I put my heart and soul into for my second appearance on "Singer No. 1 Determiner".
I want to put my heart and soul into singing it.
Let's have AKB48's Murayama Yui-san sing it for us.
I'm the strongest
I'm not scared, I don't have any worries
My dream is everyone's wish
If I sing a song, my heart will clear up
It's alright, I'm the best!
My voice carries the birds to the sky
My clothes are like dancing girls
If your voice makes me go crazy
If my thorns get stuck
Come and see this new scenery you've never seen before
If you can see it for sure
Then you're alive today!
I'm not scared, I don't have any worries
My dream is everyone's wish
If I sing a song, my heart will clear up
It's alright, I'm the best!
Come, take my hand and head towards the light
Everyone's dream is my wish
Surely, there's no one else but you
Even if that weakness fades
I swear I won't forget our days together
Someday, that dream will be my heart
No matter how many times, no matter how many times, I'll say it
I'm the best!
You're the best!
Yurisa Muroyama!
Yes?
Thank you very much!
Please sing now and tell me your honest feelings!
Well, I wanted to say "you're the best", so I have no regrets! Thank you very much!
I would like to hear from the judge, Kaworu Kurosawa!
Yes, I enjoyed your strongest high notes and strongest rhythm!
Well, I think that a song with this kind of rhythm, a fast song,
should be sung with your whole body and your whole body should be stronger,
so please get well soon and let me hear your strongest singing voice again!
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much, Kurosawa-san!
Well, I would like to hear from Nana Okada-san as well!
Yes! No, it was really good!
No matter what anyone says, you are the best!
I practiced this many times in karaoke, and it was the strongest way of singing!
I was a little nervous today...
Yes, you didn't sing very well today...
Please stop it!
I will listen to you later!
Let's reflect on it together later!
Please teach me!
But you are the best!
Thank you very much!
It doesn't change!
You were the best!
Thank you very much!
Let's give a big round of applause to AKB48's Yuri Murayama-san!
Thank you very much!
Let's move on to the next singer!
Final singer evaluation.
The sixth singer is...
The first group is...
AKB48's Asahi Nanami!
Asahi-san, how do you feel about standing on the final stage now?
I've always wanted to come here.
Every year, I've been listening to the singers of the finalists from the audience seats,
and I'm really happy that I can finally stand on the stage.
Thank you very much!
Now, we'll have AKB48's Asahi Nanami-san sing for us.
The song is "Boku Ga Shinou To Omotta No Wa".
Thank you for watching.
I thought of dying
because a sea cat cried at the pier.
In the midst of the waves, I float and disappear.
I swallow up the past and fly away.
I thought of dying
because an azalea flower bloomed on my birthday.
If I try sewing it on a sunny day,
will I be able to become an insect repellent and a father?
A firecracker, a lighthouse on a trip,
a rusty arch bridge, a discarded bicycle,
in front of the stove in the hallway station,
a heart that can't go anywhere.
It's like yesterday.
If I'm going to change tomorrow, I have to change today.
I know, I know, but...
I thought of dying
because my heart became empty.
The reason I'm crying because I want to be filled
is because I wish I could be filled.
I thought of dying because you smile so beautifully.
I think of dying all the time because you're too serious about living.
I thought of dying because I haven't met you yet.
I like the world where people like you were born.
I have a little hope for the world where people like you are living.
Asai-san, thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
How was this final stage?
Yes, that's right. The song I just sang is actually the song I was going to sing in the second song of last year.
Furuhata Nao-san, who has graduated, and I were actually playing rock-paper-scissors and I was supposed to win and sing,
but I couldn't sing it and I'm really sorry.
On last year's final day, I said I would definitely take revenge on the final stage next year,
and I'm really happy that I was able to keep my word. Thank you very much.
I would like to ask the judge Fukasawa-san as well.
Yes, Asai-san's song is really warm and thick and I love it,
and I feel like the lyrics I'm listening to now are jumping in all the time and I feel like I'm singing about this world and it was very nice.
I'm sorry I couldn't sing it last year, but I was able to do it for this show today and I was very moved.
Congratulations.
Yes, it was really wonderful. Thank you very much.
I would like to ask AKB48's Okada-san as well.
Listening to this song sung by Nami, I'm glad I was born in this world where Nami was born.
Why? Why? What are you looking at me like that for? I'm serious!
So I'm glad I was born in a world where there are kind people like Nami who embrace me.
I'm happy.
I think it's good.
I'm glad I was born with a song that makes me happy. Thank you.
Thank you.
Okado-san, thank you.
A big round of applause for AKB48's Asahi and Nanami-san!
Now, let's move on to the next singer evaluation.
Final singer evaluation.
The 7th person is...
2nd group, 2nd place...
NMB48...
Lee Siyeon!
Lee Siyeon, please stand on this final stage and tell us how you feel now.
Last year, I couldn't sing my second song.
I wanted to sing this song for everyone who loves 48 Group and for my family and friends.
But I couldn't sing it in the end.
So I'm going to sing this song again and I'm going to do my best to sing this song.
Regardless of ranking or honesty, I will do my best to sing this song in my own way.
Now, Lee Siyeon will sing for us.
Shape of Love
"Shape of Love" / Lee Siyeon
You know, before I knew it, I realized
that love had a shape
and if it had already settled in my heart,
I'm sure that from now on,
every time I learn about you,
that shape will no longer be you
I'm sure I'll leave a gap
You know, I love you
Every time you spread out in my heart,
love overflows and tears fall
I love you, I'll tell you tens of thousands of times
My warm and increased feelings are all in the form of love
Forever and ever, I love you
Whenever you spread in my heart
Love overflows and tears fall
The wind of the stars is loud
Only you are in my heart
You know, you know, I love you forever
I love you so much, thank you
Thank you, Miss Nishion!
Thank you!
You sang beautifully.
How do you feel now?
I'm about to cry,
but I can't cry when I sing,
so I want to cry now,
but I can't cry if I talk a little,
but I want you to know
that I love you just like the lyrics say,
and I want you to know that I love you,
and I want you to love me more and more.
Thank you!
How did you like it, Yoshimasa Inoue?
Wow, you still have a lot of voice left.
Thank you.
Can you sing it again?
You didn't practice it, did you?
I practiced it.
That's great.
You can still sing it.
There are times when you feel like you're about to flip over,
but you don't have to worry about it.
Congratulations.
Oh, that's not it.
Thank you.
Thank you, Miss Inoue.
Let's hear from Miss Manabe of nmv48.
The difference between when you're talking and when you're singing is amazing.
Why are you laughing?
But you're really strong and warm.
I was listening and it came straight to me,
so I'm glad.
I thought you should be proud of it.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Please give Miss Shion Ii a round of applause.
Now, let's move on to the final singer evaluation.
The 8th final singer evaluation is...
3rd group, 1st place...
STU48, Yura Ikeda!
Yura Ikeda-san, how does it feel to stand in this final as a backup singer?
Yes, um...
The first time I was in 3rd place...
I was 8th place, but...
Since I'm 8th place again this time...
I'll do my best not to lose to my 16-year-old self.
What are your thoughts as you sing the next song?
Yes, I...
I dreamed of being in the 48 group when I saw this stage of the singer power No. 1 final.
Um...
I think I'm standing on this stage now...
Because of the fans who always support me and the people who support me.
Um...
The stage I'm standing on...
And the scenery I can see from here...
I'll sing with all the thoughts I have for this tournament.
Please support me!
Now, STU48's Yura Ikeda-san will sing.
The song is...
"Nostalgic Future".
Natsukashii mirai koko wa itsuka
Kimi to tomoni aruita michi
Kakuhashi ni yo yobikau koe
Sotto mune ni ikizuiteru
Sagashiteita kotane wa mata
Kono te wo surinukeru kedo
Kitto owari jyanai, kitto owari jyanai
Mada miteitai sono keshiki ga
Zutto kokoro wo yogiru keredo
Mou nidoto nai ima wo hashire
Yume no kaze no you ni
Zutto kaze no you ni
Natsukashii mirai, tokei wo tomete Nostalgic future, stopping the clock
Zutto kou shite itai keredo Though I want to stay like this forever
Tayumu koto nai, ai wo komete With unwavering love
Mada miteitai sono keshiki ga I still want to see that scenery
Zutto kokoro wo yogiru keredo Though it makes my heart tremble
Yume no kaze no you ni Nostalgic future, running
Hashire, natsukashii mirai, e To run like a dream wind
Zutto kaze no you ni Nostalgic future, stopping the clock
Natsukashii mirai, e To run like a dream wind
Iketani Yura-san, thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
How did you like singing it?
Yes, I think I was able to convey my feelings of gratitude to this singer who has always been young and important to me.
Thank you very much!
Mizumori Kaori-san, how did you like it?
No, the enthusiasm I put into this competition was very much embedded in my singing voice.
That persuasion is not an idol.
It's like the breath of an accomplished artist.
The pressure of my voice is constant.
It's coming out of my singing.
It's very powerful and I've learned a lot.
Thank you very much!
I've learned a lot!
I'm looking forward to the future!
Congratulations!
Thank you very much!
Mizumori Kaori-san, thank you very much!
Now, let's hear from the cheerleader of ST48, Imamura-san!
Yes, Ike-chan has won many awards before, so I'm sure you felt a lot of pressure.
I was moved by your voice and expressions while you were singing.
Thank you for coming in!
Thank you very much!
Congratulations!
Thank you very much!
That's all for the singing judge of ST48, Ikeda Yura-san!
Please give her a big round of applause!
Thank you very much!
Now, all of the finalists who have finished their final screening have been gathered on stage once again.
Now, Mr. Kurosawa, how did you like this final screening?
Well, everyone has their own personality as singers, so I think it's a shame that there aren't any judges.
I'd like to nominate all of them, but I think it's amazing that each of them has their own style of singing and is trying to express it.
Mr. Kurosawa, thank you very much!
Now, I'd like to hear from the champion of the front row. Ms. Okada, how did you like it?
Well, I think it was the highest-level battle I've ever had.
As each round went on, the level went up, and everyone understood their own personality and came to win the election.
I'm glad that each of you had strong thoughts about what you wanted to deliver.
I can't say that I'm the champion of the front row, but you're all champions. It was wonderful!
Thank you, champion of the fourth row, Ms. Okada!
Now, I can't read the developments at all, but finally, the fifth singer will decide!
We will now move on to the final screening of the singers. Please refer to this notice during the screening.
Fifth AKB48 Group Singer Power No. 1 Deciding Round Individual Round Final Tournament Results Announcement!
AKB48 Group Singer Power No. 1 Deciding Round will finally be decided by the fifth singer, Utahime.
The top three singers with high scores in the final singing screening,
and one of the twelve who unfortunately could not remain finalists,
will announce the special award of the judges.
Thank you very much for your hard work, judges.
Mizumori-san, how did you feel about the screening of this tournament?
No, it was a little more than I imagined.
I didn't know you were so good at singing difficult songs.
I really didn't think I could sing this song, but it was really wonderful.
I enjoyed it.
Thank you very much.
Now, before the announcement of the top three singers, let me announce the special award of the judges.
Mr. Crosser, on behalf of the judges, please.
Yes, I will announce it now.
The fifth AKB48 Group Singer Power No. 1 Deciding Round Special Award goes to...
AKB48 Manaka Taguchi-san!
Congratulations!
You looked surprised.
Taguchi-san, you looked surprised. How was it?
Are you okay?
I suddenly feel uneasy when you say that.
Your mid-low notes are beautiful and your expression is wonderful.
I think you have a talent that other finalists don't have.
If you could get excited for the chorus a little more, I think you'd be an even better singer, so I chose you.
Good luck!
I'm still a little surprised, but Okada-san, how did you feel when you heard this announcement?
I'm very happy. We're from the same school and we're from the same station.
We're from the same school and we were chosen like this and we worked hard.
I'm glad.
I'm glad you're smiling.
Really.
Even before the performance, you looked like you didn't have confidence and kept practicing.
I think you had more practice time because you had a unit battle yesterday.
I hope you'll spend a lot of practice time and grow up. You'll definitely get better.
Thank you.
Taguchi-san, you also got the requirement for a finalist live performance. Congratulations!
Thank you for saying that.
How do you feel about that?
I'll do my best with only the harmonies.
Once again, the 5th AKB48 Grave Singer Power No. 1 Deciding Round goes to...
Special Judge AKB48 Taguchi-san!
Please give him a big round of applause! Congratulations!
Congratulations!
Now, the announcement of the Special Judge has ended.
Now for the final singer evaluation.
We'll move on to the announcements of the top 3.
First is the announcement of the 3rd place.
Mr. Ichikawa, please.
I'll announce it now.
The 5th AKB48 Grave Singer Power No. 1 Deciding Round...
The 3rd place is...
HKT48...
Akiyoshi Yuka!
Thank you!
Congratulations!
Congratulations, Akiyo-san!
Thank you!
How do you feel about being announced as 3rd place?
It's frustrating!
But it's great! I gave it my all!
I realized how much I love music,
and I want to improve myself more and more!
Thank you!
Inoue-san from the judges' seats!
Being 3rd doesn't mean you're frustrated.
At this level, you're just flying in your own world.
Akiyoshi-san's singing was the best you've done so far.
Thank you!
I've been watching you every year.
I'm starting to understand your singing more and more.
The way you use the mic was great.
The way you use the venue was great, too.
It's your first time this year, right?
Yes!
I think you'll be at the Tokyo Dome next.
Please practice for that!
Yes!
Thank you, Inoue-san.
Now, from HKT48, let's hear from Ichimura-san.
I think that Akiyoshi-san's good points were conveyed throughout the venue.
Before the performance, I couldn't decide where to put my hair accessories.
You have more to say, don't you?
Say something good!
I couldn't tell whether you were happy or sad.
You were so confident and I cried.
I'm glad.
Thank you!
Now, let's hear from the judges and the members.
I'm happy.
As for the micing, I learned it from Kurosawa-san when he debuted with his song "Nona Diamonds".
I'm happy that I was able to use it.
Now, from HKT48, let's hear from Akiyoshi Yuka- san.
Congratulations!
Now, let's move on to the second announcement.
Ichika-san, please.
I'll announce it.
The fifth AKB48 Group Vocal Power No. 1 Deciding Round.
In second place...
LMB48, Ishion!
Ishion-san, congratulations!
Congratulations!
Thank you very much!
Isan, is it okay for you to read all of the comments?
Is it okay?
Eh? But...
Eh? Eh?
I don't really know, but...
But I'm happy to receive this high rank, and I want to move on to the next level.
I think there's a higher wall for me, so I want to improve myself and practice more.
I hate singing, but I like it, so I want to get along with you more.
Thank you very much!
Congratulations!
Judge Fukasawa-san, please comment!
Yes, well...
Not only singing, but also talking is becoming more and more popular.
It was very interesting.
And even if I stop singing, I feel like I'll continue to grow.
This time it's a live band, but I think I'll have another chance in a live band.
So I'm looking forward to more explosive singing and talking!
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much! Congratulations!
Thank you very much!
Now, MMD48 Manabe-san, what do you think?
I don't know what to say!
But really...
Second place...
It's a little frustrating for me, but...
But really...
It was so close...
When I think about it...
I'm looking forward to next year.
That's what I think.
Good work!
Thank you very much!
And so, second place goes to...
MMD48 Lee Siwon-san!
Please give her a big round of applause!
Thank you very much!
Now, we will finally move on to the announcement of the winning members.

[Ikeda Yura, singer and queen of the 5th GaiGai Song Festival]
The 5th GaiGai Song Festival Queen of the 5th GaiGai Song Festival Queen of the 5th GaiGai Song Festival
is Ikeda Yura-san!
Excuse me for intruding.
Ikeda-san, please come to the center.
Congratulations!
Thank you.
I know it's difficult for you to control your emotions right now,
but please tell us how you feel about winning.
Um...
Like...
When I first went out, I didn't know anything.
I was just having fun.
I was happy to be able to participate in this competition.
But...
Um...
As the number of times I participated increased,
I had a lot of trouble.
I had a lot of trouble knowing about it.
But I think I was able to win against myself when I was 16 years old.
Thank you very much!
Now, we will award the winner of this competition a trophy!
The winner of this competition is the judge, Kurosawa Kaoru-san!
Congratulations!
Thank you very much!
Mr. Kurosawa, would you like to say a few words?
Yes. When I was 16 years old, I was watching "Taikan".
Even at that time, she cried many times, but now her tears are completely different.
Yes.
No matter what you sing, it will be Ikeda-san's song in a good way.
This means that you are a singer.
It's not about singing well like this artist, or singing the notes well.
Through Ikeda-san's filter, all songs will be Ikeda-san's songs.
To be able to produce such a champion like this,
this tournament itself is wonderful, and everyone who has supported it so far is wonderful.
Everyone is really happy. Let's give them a round of applause!
Thank you very much, Mr. Kurosawa!
Now, let's hear from our supporters, ST48 and Imamura-san!
Yes!
First of all, congratulations, Ike-chan!
Thank you very much!
You've always had an anxious look on your face, and I was also very nervous.
But I'm really grateful for you showing me so many cool sides of you.
You're so good you could be put in an electric chair!
But I'm looking forward to seeing more of Ike- chan's future activities.
First of all, you were so cool! Congratulations!
Thank you!
Thank you very much!
Now, let's hear from Okada-san of Zenkaijou!
You've been chosen as the new queen! How do you feel?
You're the only one who has won twice in a row.
So, keep singing with confidence!
Yes!
Right?
Yes!
When I think about this event on LINE, my heart aches.
But when I saw you singing so proudly on LINE, I also gained courage!
You were really cool!
Thank you!
You're the second queen!
Now that you've won the trophy, please tell us how you feel!
Yes...
Um...
I'm able to stand here like this
because of the fans who came here
and the fans who watch me
and all of you who support me!
Um...
From now on...
Um...
I want to keep singing songs that reach everyone's hearts!
Thank you very much!
The winner of the fifth AKB48 Grave Singing Power No. 1 Deciding Round was Yuna Ikeda!
Once again, please give her a big round of applause!

Of course, the winner will be singing!
Ms. Ikeda, please!
It will begin with your solo performance!
Please tell us as much as you want about the joy of winning!
Now, please listen!
365 Days of Paper Airplane
Looking up at the morning sky, I softly wished for today
to be filled with smiles.
Sometimes I feel down and my tears overflow,
but if it doesn't go as planned, I'll do my best tomorrow.
The dream I've always had is for me to be alone
and do whatever I want to do freely, as I like.
Life is a paper airplane. I'll fly with my wishes on board.
As far as I can in the wind, I'll just keep moving forward.
Rather than competing for distance, it's about how I flew and where I flew.
That's what's most important. Now, as I like, 365 Days of Paper Airplane.
Life is a paper airplane, flying with a wish.
In the wind, just go as far as you can.
Rather than competing with that distance, where did you fly and where did you fly?
That's what's most important. Now, as I like, 365 Days of Paper Airplane.
Fly and go, fly and see.
The winner is Yura Ikeda.
Yura Ikeda, please say a word at the end.
Yes, I did my best in the fifth tournament as well.
I will continue to sing with all my heart so that this tournament can continue for ten or twenty times.
Thank you very much.
The winner is Yura Ikeda.
And thank you very much to everyone who participated and made it exciting.
Let's meet again!
Thank you very much.
