AKB48 worked in the past!
AKB48 is celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2025.
In AKB48's 20 years of history,
we will talk about the best parts of AKB48,
AKB48's ambitions for the future,
and members of AKB48's next generation.
I will be your host for today.
I know it's hard for you to ask,
but before and after joining AKB48,
have you ever wondered if you were in love?
What do you mean "after"?
It's a big question.
What do you mean "if you were in love"?
If you were in love?
Do you have your own love in you?
I do.
Which one?
I'm in love now,
but I'll tell you later.
I love Hiroshi Tachi.
You say it a lot.
I fell in love with him when I was in middle school.
I've always liked him.
Aren't you in love?
I'm in love!
You really like him, don't you?
I really like him and I love him so much that I'm in love with him now.
If I have a chance to take a picture with him, I'd like to send it to Tachiru.
Oh, my God! It hurts!
It hurts!
Many fans know about this.
He's a good person.
What?
He's a good person!
He's a good person.
I'm happy that you support me.
It's one-sided love of Mayumi.
But in my delusion, it's mutual love.
Oh, Mayumi!
It's the best!
Yes.
Do you have one, Ai-chan?
I'm often admired and liked by my juniors.
I don't know how I was born now, but I was cool.
You were cute.
I was cool.
You were smiling.
When I was smiling, I had a junior who I was in love with.
Oh, my God!
I had a junior who I was in love with.
Oh, my God!
Really?
Do you get Valentine's Day gifts?
Oh, my God!
I'd like to know!
Oh, my God!
I'm interested in you, Sora-chan!
I'm excited!
Valentine's Day is the most...
I'm really embarrassed and give it to girls.
Oh, my God!
I thought it was cute and nice.
That's a great story.
Sora-chan loves stories like that.
I love it!
By the way, Sora-chan, how about you?
Me?
I think...
Oda Erina-san?
Oh!
She's cool.
She's cute and I admire her as a cute woman.
There are a lot of seniors.
Oda-san is the most popular one now.
I feel like I'm really in love with Oda-san.
I have that image.
Do you?
When you talk to Oda-san in person?
That kind of tension?
Not at all!
Let's be gentle in front of our fans.
What about you, Saho-san?
I'm from a girls' high school and I went to a girls' high school in middle school.
For me, it's Valentine's Day.
I admire my seniors.
Oh! Thank you!
Thank you!
I wish I could get along with my seniors.
I'll graduate someday.
I'd like to go home by train or go home together.
Wow!
It's not like that.
Let's get married!
I usually admire them.
But I don't think it's love.
But I admire them.
I know.
They're both similar.
Admiration and love.
Does that mean you have something about love this time?
No, I don't.
I think it's easier to express love when I express AKB songs.
But is it love?
What kind of face do you make in such a song?
In the beginning, I could only dance with a smile.
I tried to make a cool face.
But every time I do something like that, I feel like it's easier to express it in my life.
Experience is important, isn't it?
Please show me your face when you're in love.
No way!
I can't do it.
Don't look at me like that.
Please show me your face when you're in love.
Three, two, one.
Okay, I'll play it.
Today's theme is...
AKB48's love song that makes your heart skip a beat.
There are many songs like that.
The theme is "One person, five minutes", and "AKB48's love"...
Three minutes!
Oh, it's three minutes.
"One person, three minutes", and "AKB48's love",
and "AKB48's fans, please love and brainwash them".
Mayu-chan will go first.
I'm nervous.
One person at a time.
Okay.
Mayu-chan, who's in love with Tachi Yoshi-san.
Yes, Mayu-chan.
Please raise your hand.
Mayu-chan's love song.
Go ahead!
Okay, this is my love song recommendation.
It's not "Can you be Tachi-san's girlfriend?"
It's "Can you be his girlfriend?"
Stop it!
Anyway, this song is cute.
Just like the song "Can you be his girlfriend?",
the main character, a girl,
chases someone she likes,
struggles with her feelings,
and does her best.
I can't help but think of Tachi Yoshi-san when I listen to this song.
Popular?
At first, I didn't think this day would come.
A senior I admired suddenly called me out.
The first thing I think of is Tachi Yoshi-san.
I've never met him before and we're far apart,
but if he suddenly calls me out from behind me,
it might be Tachi Yoshi-san.
That's what I think and listen to on the train.
And...
The second lyric is really cute.
"Can I make you a lunch box?" "Can I wake you up early and make it for you?"
"I want you to answer me!" Those lyrics are just so cute.
I'm not good at cooking, but for you, I'll work hard and go to your cooking class.
So if you're watching this, please contact me.
Will you stop?
That's right.
But if I leave you out of it...
It's a song from your school days.
He's a basketball player.
And you're a girl.
When I was in school, I used to listen to it when I went to school.
Just listening to it makes me feel like I'm in my youth.
I also graduated high school.
I'm a college student.
But my youth has already ended.
Maybe some of you are my age or older than me.
When you listen to this song, you can go back to your youth.
I hope you'll listen to it.
And what's cute about this song is...
It's a song by Team K.
Team K has a lot of cool songs.
But I love this song's gap.
Anyway, I love you, Tachihiro.
That's not it?
Huh? Huh? Huh?
We're back.
What were we talking about?
Right?
What was the first thing you said?
Please contact me.
I said "Please contact me."
Like a video letter?
I thought it would work if I said it.
Oh!
So I tried appealing.
This is a Yamanashi broadcast.
If you watch Yamanashi broadcast a lot...
Please contact me!
But the possibility is...
Yes, it's not zero.
You want to try this lyric situation, don't you?
That's right.
Oh, my God!
I'm excited!
This is just my imagination.
For example, if you listen to this...
That's right.
It's a model for changing.
I'll do this.
A model?
I see.
That's what you showed me.
Thank you.
I introduced it like that.
Then, next...
Mayu-chan, do you have a favorite part?
That's right.
Do you notice it?
You're not being used as an example.
Thank you.
That's right.
I'm curious about what kind of song you'll choose.
That's right! I'm curious!
It may be a different point of view.
Oh!
What is it?
I'm looking forward to it.
Mayu-chan's love song, please!
Yes!
My love song is...
Ta-dah!
The first song is...
It's the first song.
I'd like you to listen to it twice this time.
It's a priority song.
Why do you think so?
Seriously, I knew it was a priority song...
After joining AKB48...
I think it was the first time we performed at a big concert.
At that time, the seniors said, "Handsome guys?"
And...
I was like, "What is this?"
At that time...
I was attracted to it.
It's amazing.
When girls dance and look cool,
we know that we will be ideal handsome men.
Yes.
And my priority is...
I like it so much that...
even at the concert of the 17th season,
I performed alone.
That's right.
I like it so much that I can say it.
The music video is also cool and really cool.
I want you to listen to it for a while.
I want you to see it for a while.
Even if you don't know it,
you should definitely see it.
It's a good song.
Yes, next.
My priority is also really great.
This is also my favorite song.
"Caboo's Color".
That's right.
This song...
We performed it in the park.
We performed it in Yuri's park.
It's a unit song.
I didn't do it, but...
When I saw it, I was like, "What is this song?"
It's wonderful!
Anyway, it's a beautiful song.
The contents of the song are like that,
but the lyrics and costumes are like girls' beautiful and fragile feelings.
I was like, "Wow, it's wonderful!"
I saw it for the first time.
Really!
The lyrics are very complicated,
but girls are like Yuri,
so it's like that,
but it's very beautiful.
It's beautiful in any case.
So what I want to say is...
I was fascinated by "Caboo's Color" and "Priority".
I fell in love.
Can I say it?
I fell in love with it so much that my hair fell off.
What I want to say is...
Girls are cool...
If you dress up and dress up, you'll look good anyway, so I want to do it too!
I want to do it too!
Everyone, this song "kabu-no-iro" and "priority" are songs you should definitely listen to!
Please listen to it!
It's a really good song!
The momentum is different!
I really like it!
It's a good song, isn't it?
It's beautiful!
The glass is beautiful!
There were many people who complained about it to the camera and here.
It wasn't over there, it was over here!
It's almost...
I can't help but get excited when I see handsome guys at concerts!
Eh? Is it only me?
It's amazing how passionate you are!
In the past, AKB had plans to dance, but not anymore, right?
That's right!
I often watch old videos in the morning, but I think it's better to do it now!
I think handsome guys are also necessary!
Kohi-chan and...
Hiyuka-san!
I think it's definitely good!
Before, Hiyuka-chan also had plans to dance, but not anymore, right?
When she did a dance song, she became really handsome!
I want to aim for it a little while ago!
First of all!
I want Hiyuka-san and Kohi-chan to do their best!
That's right! I'll do my best!
But someday I also want to do it!
It's a completely different atmosphere!
That's right!
There are many kinds of girls!
It's really good!
It's amazing how you like it!
It's more of a hobby than a song!
But it's a little hot outside, so please listen carefully!
You have to listen to it!
Next!
- Ai-chan - Yes! - Please sing it for me.
What song will it be?
Ai-chan, please sing your love song!
Yes! I'm AKB48's Ai-chan Kosatari!
The love song I chose is...
"Glass's "I love you"
Yes!
I haven't performed this song yet.
I don't think this song is as well-known as my brother's song.
But I want you all to know this song.
My favorite part of this song is...
"the pure" part.
It's about a girl who is in love.
It's a perfect theme for this song.
Do you love me?
It's not like "I love you" or "I'll do my best to tell you."
It's like "If I can get a centimeter closer, will you be able to feel me?"
Do you love me?
The main character doesn't know if she's in love or not.
But she can't hold back her feelings.
It's a song that's too pure.
There's a lyric I like the most.
Just walking next to you makes me dance.
Do you feel like that now?
Do you?
- Not now. - You don't, do you?
It's like...
Just being next to you is enough for me.
It's such a pure feeling.
Akimoto Eisehi's lyrics always remind me of...
her profile.
I think you can see her profile only when you're next to her.
It's not like she's in the back or in front of you, but it's because she's next to you that you can see her cuteness and what you like about her.
I think some of my fans like her profile, too.
It's a cute song where you can really feel that you want to be close to her.
What I like about this song is that there are some dots in the lyrics.
The feelings contained in the dots are something that we receive and think about, and I think it's a song that can be interpreted in many ways.
I really like this song.
And this "glass" in "glass" of "I love you" makes me feel like I'm shining when I listen to this song.
It's like a glass heart.
I think it's a really pure song, so if you're tired, please listen to it!
Tired people
She was talking about "tired people".
That's the target.
We've already talked about "tired people", but "tired people" comes up a lot.
That's the theme of this song.
It wasn't "I love you", it was "tired people", so I thought this song would go well with it.
You said "tired people" is cute, didn't you?
Did you know that?
Did you say "tired people"?
"tired people"?
Did you say that?
That's amazing!
I think it's a song that conveys the cuteness of this song.
Next, Saho!
I'll go!
Saho, please sing your love song!
Yes, this is the love song that I, Watate Saho, will choose!
Ta-dah! "Hyakumetaru Konbini"!
Yes! This is a song of Team B's "Shiatama Megami Kouen".
Just by looking at the title, "Hyakumetaru Konbini" seems like an interesting song at first glance, doesn't it?
For those of you who don't know this song, this song's lyrics are very good and the stage is a convenience store.
At the beginning of the song, I was struck by Fui's "chakumero".
It's that kind of generation.
"Chakumero"? Is it still there?
Yes, it is.
On the night you called me out with Fui's "chakumero",
even though your parents are up and asking you who your neighbors are,
you still change into your jersey and go out.
Wow!
Yes. To go to the convenience store, to meet someone you like,
and even if you lie to your parents a little, you still go.
I think that kind of straightforwardness is very "muneken" and "seishun" (youthful) for me.
When you become adults, I'm sure you can fall in love freely.
I'm sure many of you can.
But still, the feeling of "my parents are here" sometimes,
I think it's a little clogged up.
And it's just after you've taken a bath.
While rubbing your wet hair with a wheelbarrow, you go while feeling it.
And it's not at the beginning of the lyrics, but towards the second half of the song,
your hair starts to dry.
Wow!
As time goes by,
if you're someone you like, I'm sure you want to stay together for as long as possible.
At the convenience store, you go just to see each other for a little while,
and I feel sorry for you for that.
I think it's a song that's actually packed.
Surprisingly, there's one more song.
For the first time.
That's why.
And I'm sorry to call you out of the blue.
Come and see me.
I used to say that I felt like I was being tested.
But I want to see you even for a moment.
Come and see me.
That's what I'm most attracted to.
And it's also a situation where I wanted to do it.
The situation of longing.
It's probably something you can only do if you live in the same area.
It's a distance of 100 meters.
That's why middle school and high school get a little far away.
That's why, at that time of year, I wanted to have a heart-pounding love like this.
It's a song that I long for.
It's been a while since you've heard it and been excited about it.
Perfect.
I'm glad you came.
I thought you'd have a clue.
A scene or something comes to mind.
I know.
I'm also in my neighbor's convenience store now.
Tachiro-san called me out.
It's back.
I was imagining you waiting for me.
But it was easy to imagine.
I know.
I'm very curious about it.
I think it's a surprisingly curious song.
The last one.
Eri-chan chose it.
You're a hero.
It was the last one.
Then I'll go.
The song I chose for my love song is...
What If I Wasn't an Idol?
This song has a slightly different taste from the songs everyone chose.
It's a song with lyrics and stories that haven't been in any idol song before.
First of all, the lyrics express love for fans who support idols.
That's very fresh.
Until now, AKB songs have had songs like "long-distance poster".
It's a song about a fan falling in love with an idol.
Other artists often listen to this song.
"What If I Wasn't an Idol?" is one of my favorite songs.
It's one of AKB songs that I listen to the most.
It's a song about an idol falling in love with a fan.
It's a song about an idol who's struggling with love.
When idols listen to this song, they feel like this.
But when fans listen to this song, they interpret it differently.
I'd like to know what you think of this song.
My favorite lyrics are...
In the first verse of the second song, there is a lyric that says, "I'm singing on a singing show and I'm signing you off the camera."
And then...
"I love you" wink.
"Even if you did, would you look at me?" There are lyrics like that.
Well, it's not realistic, but after listening to these lyrics,
I saw people winking on a singing show and thought, "Maybe?" It's a song where you can have delusions like that.
So, once you hear this song... This song is also very story-driven.
You fall in love and say, "If only I wasn't an idol!" But in the end, you like being an idol and it's wonderful.
"Even so, I'll continue being an idol." It's a song about love. It's a love song of a different genre than before.
I hope everyone will listen to it.
Oh, it's over. It's over.
Thank you for your hard work.
Eri-chan, it's your first match song, right?
That's right.
There's a demo and I love the lyrics. I think it's the song that works best with AKB.
By the way, Mayu-chan, what would you say if Hiroshi Tachi came to your live show?
I'm sorry, but I only look at Hiroshi Tachi.
I'll jump off the stage and go see Hiroshi Tachi's audience, but I'll look at him from the side.
You'll look at him from the side?
He's in that company?
That's right.
We'll have a date. Let's have fun.
Let's have fun. It's not like we can't look at each other.
We can't look at each other.
I'm sitting next to you, so we can't look at each other.
I feel like I'm on my first date in a movie.
I can't help but imagine it.
It's wonderful.
It's fun.
It's my hobby.
I know.
You recommended a lot of love songs. What did you think of them?
This time, I introduced some pure songs.
AKB48 doesn't have a lot of love songs.
I know.
It's full of love songs.
"Koi Tsunjatta" is a strong song.
It's a sad song.
"Ryo unrequited love" is a song that you know you like it, but you can't say it.
There are a lot of songs that you can sympathize with.
I want you to listen to more and more.
You imagine your ideal youth and go to school.
But you don't have that kind of youth.
AKB48 members live their ideal school life.
We're playing that role.
We want to show that world to Tachihiro and our fans.
Which one was better?
I don't know how many times I've said it today.
I know.
I'm surprised.
I hope you listen to a lot of songs.
I hope AKB48's songs will reach not only AKB48 fans, but also fans of AKB48 who are not yet fans of AKB48.
Good-bye!
