AISubs v3.7
It's only been a moment since I announced my graduation, and it's only been a little while since I announced it, but when I realized it next time, it would be on the day of my graduation concert.
In the first place, I admired Sayashi Riho and auditioned because I wanted to be a morning girl, but when I realized it, I joined that project and now I'm a morning girl.
I think I was able to live a life I hadn't expected or imagined at the time.
The first performance I did for COUNTRY GIRLS was probably at the COUNTDOWN concert.
I was supposed to sing a different song and record it, but I sang a new song and I was really nervous.
I was so nervous that my memory was about to fly away, but I went to Kobe and Osaka at that time.
I was really surprised and moved. I remember thinking, "I'm so busy."
I've experienced a lot of things and met a lot of people, and I think my personality has changed a little.
Maybe it's because of my age.
I don't know if it changed because I was here, but I'm a little better now that I was really shy.
There are a lot of things.
Meeting members.
Being able to see various scenery.
I was able to go to festivals and meet overseas fans.
Things you can't do by yourself.
I was able to do a lot of things because I was in the group Morning Musume.
There are a lot of people in the group.
You can't know unless you're involved.
I've been involved a lot and learned a lot.
It was the first time in my life that I felt so much energy from people when I had a concert outdoors.
I felt it from myself and I felt a lot of energy from the audience.
Our Budokan concerts also have a lot of energy.
The outdoors and the environment are different and there are probably more people who see it for the first time.
I felt a new energy in a completely different environment.
I thought it was very fresh.
My memories with Mr. Moido are...
Mr. Moido is like my mother.
I don't usually eat my own food or take it from myself,
but he tells me to eat properly and cares about me when I eat vegetables.
I think he's very kind.
Mr. Moido also gives me a lot of clothes.
There are clothes that Mr. Moido hasn't worn yet and clothes that he has already taken off,
so I want to wear them by the time I graduate.
Mr. Moido's dancing is really cool and he often teaches me how to dance.
He teaches me how to do the chest wave dance and how to do it.
Thanks to that, I think I can do it a little better now.
Thank you!
Can you do it a little faster?
There is a dance like this in the song "Chu Chu Chu Bokura no Mirai".
At first, I couldn't do it like this, but he taught me how to move my shoulders.
I'm getting a little better, right?
Can you see it?
It's like this.
Can you see it?
I think I can do it a little better now.
When I heard about my graduation,
it had only been a little while since Mr. Sato and Mr. Sato Masaki graduated,
so I was very sad to think that another member would graduate.
But in the meantime, I had a lot of memories with Mr. Morito and the feeling of "OK, I'll make it!" came out.
Yes, I think I have quite a lot of memories with Mr. Morito.
First of all, I had a lot of Mr. Morito arrange my hair.
Even when I joined, I had very thin makeup, so he did it for me.
Also, even at recent HINA FES, he arranged my hair and made me look cute a lot.
Also, when I was taking a break from my morning activities, I received a message.
I received quite a lot of messages in e-mails, and I was very much saved by them.
I didn't say much like "I was saved by Mr. Morito", but I had a personal feeling that those words resonated with me and made me really happy.
So I said "I really want to tell Mr. Morito about this".
Also, recently I've been talking a lot.
After I bought a pet, I have more opportunities to talk.
Recently I've been talking a lot, but once I graduate, I don't have many opportunities to talk in person.
It's a little lonely when I think about it, but I'm glad I made a lot of memories until graduation.
Mr. Morito and I knew each other when I joined, and we didn't talk much, but we've been talking a lot in the past year or so, and we've been talking a lot about various things in our lives step by step.
When it comes to food, Mr. Morito gets really excited about it.
The first "chocomintou" was Mr. Haga and Mr. Morito's first "chocomintou" in "Morning Message".
A new "kitagawa" has been added there, and the three of us are having a lot of fun doing it.
For example, if you have delicious sweets, you can say, "Rio-chan, eat this."
When I say, "This place looks really good," you say, "Then let's go together."
I have a memory of being very warm and happy.
But I love eating so much and I'm hungry in the morning and I wake up in the morning.
Even so, I think it's amazing that you're so thin.
After all, I think it's amazing that you eat half of your meal properly and that you're always careful about it.
I really think I have to get used to it.
I'll do my best, too.
I've declared my diet to Mr. Morito many times, but I can't do it for the rest of my life, so I thought I really had to do my best this time.
So when Mr. Morito graduates, I'll do my best to be as beautiful as Mr. Morito.
Well, with Mr. Morito...
But I think I have a lot of memories with Mr. Morito, especially among Morning Musume members.
What do you think, Mr. Morito?
I don't know what you think, but I think I've done a lot of shooting with Mr. Morito other than shooting with Morning Musume.
For example, we are short, so we publish books as minis.
We did it, didn't we?
I miss it so much!
We published books and sang songs in minis.
Not only as Morning Musume members, but I also worked with Mr. Morito as "Morning Musume tobidashite".
In that sense, I think Mr. Morito is a little special.
We often played together in private.
Mr. Nodaka, Mr. Morito and I played a lot together.
I didn't say much, but we went to theme parks and ate normal meals.
As fans of "yokochi", we have been told "yokochi is cute", and I think we have been told that quite a lot since we joined.
Among them, the most memorable thing is that there was a photo shoot for two of us at a fairly early stage after Mr. Morito joined "yokochi".
I think we were still students at that time.
We wore school uniforms and took pictures with Mr. Morito.
I think it was right after Mr. Morito got married.
At that time, we held hands and took pictures like this in school uniforms.
Even now, I love that picture so much that it's in the top of my album.
It's one of my favorites.
I personally like that picture.
I don't post it much on blogs and social media.
I love that picture so much that I'm thinking of posting it on the important day when Mr. Morito graduates from school.
It's a long time ago, but it's still a memorable story and episode for me.
I'm Kaga Kaede.
When Mr. Morito first joined us, there was a corner where we turned the camera around and talked to each other in the moving bus during the first DVD magazine.
At that time, Mr. Morito was so shy and the words he said were so country girls, so everyone said "cute".
Half a year later, more and more "gyaru" parts came out.
The moment I said it in "Morning Musume", Mr. Morito's "true" part came out.
I thought it was really interesting.
What I like about Mr. Morito is his dancing.
Some of the lyrics in "Girls' Lyrics! Boys' Lyrics!" also say that Mr. Morito tends to look like he's letting go of his hands.
It looks like you're letting go of your hands and it's really cool.
After all, it's a competition that comes out.
There's a lot of Morito-san's coolness that comes out of the basic parts of dance that Morito-san has done since he was a child, and I thought that Morito-san's fans who noticed it were amazing.
Yes, among Morning Musumen., I'm called "gyaruchi" or something like that, but I think that Morito-san has become a part of me that is sparkling and cute because of Morito-san's presence,
so I think it's sad that such a part is gone.
Chii and I haven't been Morning Musumen. since we joined Hello! Project together.
When Chii was in Country Girls and I was in Morning Musumen., when a fan asked me, "Is there a member you get along with the most in Hello! Project?", we were so close that we would say each other's names.
When Chii came to Morning Musumen. like that, we were really happy, but we have in common that we like chocolate mint.
Chocolate mint is quite... After all, I like it or I don't like it, but among them, Chii and I especially love chocolate mint, so when chocolate mint sweets were newly released, we would say, "Did you eat this?"
And like... When was it? When we did the stage for Pharaoh's Grave's "Hebios Nefer" , Chii and I often happened to be together as ARI roles and PAPI roles, but I remember going out for chocolate mint ice cream together after practice a lot.
Really, Chii came to Morning Musumen. and I think I smiled more and I felt like a new, fresh wind blew in Morning Musumen.
When Chii joined Morning Musumen. and even now, I was so happy about Chii and I love her so much.
When Chii graduates, she will be a person who will cut a branch and make a big explosion in the dressing room.
If there is something really interesting, I think that there were a lot of times when Chii smiled first and everyone laughed because of her smile.
Maybe the laughter will disappear in the dressing room of Morning Musumen.
I don't think that will happen, but I think it was because of Chii's smile and existence that we were able to graduate.
I think we will be very lonely after graduation and I'm sure Chii will be lonely to study abroad alone, but I hope we can talk on the phone in the dressing room together.
Memories with Chii-chan.
When I first joined Morning Musumen. with Chii-chan, I wasn't a person who talked a lot.
Even when I went to Country Girls, I was like, "Oh, I'm going to cut a branch. Oh, I'm going to cut a branch."
I don't remember when I started talking a lot,
but there was a time when I thought that Chii-chan was very kind.
When I was having a meeting with the MCs of Morning Musumen. at the dressing room,
there were five or six of us talking about this kind of thing, but there was a shooting where only I wasn't there.
When we were talking about the shooting when there were about five people in the dressing room,
Chii-chan said something like, "Maria-chan, let's talk about something you can talk about."
At that time, I thought, "Chii-chan is kind."
I was happy about it, but I was happy that there were people who noticed it like that.
Maria said, "Oh, it's already advanced," and "Then let's talk about it."
But Chii-chan said that, "Oh, let's change it."
"Let's make it something Maria can talk about," she said.
I was very happy about it, and it was a moment when I realized that Chii-chan was kind.
That's why I liked Chii-chan even more at the time and wanted to talk to her a little more.
After that, there were a lot of things that Chii-chan helped me with.
To give you a very detailed example, at concerts, there are times when you have to put or take the microphone on stage.
Maria gave Chii-chan the microphone and Chii-chan put it down for her.
At that time, Chii-chan was very good at putting down the microphone.
It's different from being kind, but Chii-chan is very good at putting it down.
It's not like, "Okay, I'll put it down for you," it's like, "Shushu!"
She's very good at that, and I thought she was good at putting it down for me.
That's a different kind of episode, though.
But even after that, there were a lot of things we talked about, even if it was little by little.
What did we talk about that we got along so well?
I really don't remember, but Maria really likes Chii- chan, and we went home a lot with Chii-chan.
At the end of a concert or something like that.
And even then, like...
The headquarters is...
The direction I'm going is different, so I'm going this way, but...
He waited for me in the same place as Maria until Chii- chan's train arrived.
And then...
After I got on, he went over there, and then he waited for me like that, and like...
He didn't say anything, so at first I thought it was the same direction.
But Chii-chan...
"Oh, it's the other way around, Chii-chan! Sorry, thank you!" I thought...
And then Chii-chan...
Maybe...
That kind of...
He didn't say anything and...
I have the impression that he's very...
Secretively kind to me.
So I like that about him.
I like it when Chii-chan always gives me a lot of sweets.
And he's really cute, right?
As you all know...
He's just like that, so...
When Chii-chan is like...
Ah! I can't do it!
He's really cute, and...
I think you all know how cute he is.
But his kindness is really...
Like...
Chii-chan...
Even though we're not really together...
He's always here for me...
That's really...
Kind of him...
Ah! Chii-chan, you were secretly doing it for me!
Things like that...
Are often...
Chii-chan's coolness...
Kindness...
And things I like about him.
Well, I also wrote about him in my blog and stuff, so...
If you can take a look at that...
I wrote all of Chii-chan's good points about him.
But really, those...
Little by little...
Like...
When he's behind my back?
Or when he's in his private life?
Even in those places...
He's always...
Taking care of me...
I'm sure he's taking care of me.
He's always kind to me, so...
Those things are...
Things I like about him, I guess?
Rather than memories...
They've become things I like about Chii-chan, but...
I really love Chii-chan!
That's all!
Well, I have a lot of episodes with Mori and Chisaki-chan, but...
Um...
I'll introduce...
A few of them!
There's a few of them, so...
The first one is...
Recently...
We had a stay-at-home party.
And it was at the end of the year, on New Year's Day.
After the concert, we went back to my house.
My family and I...
We were like, "Grandpa, we're family, too."
We spent time together.
We decided it on that day, too.
Are you coming?
We have those memories.
We went to eat cheese kimbap.
Kimbap is like Korean seaweed roll.
It has cheese in it.
We made a lot of videos together.
"Let's go! Let's go!" We stretched out the cheese and filmed it.
We have a lot of episodes like that.
After rehearsal...
I was tired, so we decided to go eat together.
We went for a walk and ate together.
I don't know how many cafes we went to.
I have a lot of memories like that.
I'm lonely.
I'm lonely because my cafe and friends are far away.
We're in the same class.
Even if we're in different numbers, I think we're in the same class.
We're in the same class.
We're friends and classmates.
It's like that.
His way of thinking and his way of thinking is completely different from mine, so I was moved by that difference, and I thought, "Oh, it's such a small thing, it's not dented, it's okay," and in that respect, I was helped.
Chi-chan is very strong and honest when you get along with her,
so I thought he was a pretty straight-talking kid in a very good way.
He's a different type of straight from me, and I felt that kind of strength.
Chii-chan and Morning Musume often line up in order of age.
You're 14th, so you're lined up with 15th, and you're second from the outside.
You're a senior from the inside, but you're second from the outside.
The order you originally joined the Hello! Project is...
You'll be next to me, right?
I've had a lot of contact with you for a long time.
I was suddenly doing a concert the other day.
I'm so far away, but Chii-chan is still...
I think you're a different existence.
But as a Morning Musume member, Chii has...
How do you say it?
She's made up her mind and decided to start from scratch.
So I've never had any complaints about being in the position of a newcomer.
I'm more of a senior, but as a Morning Musume member, I'm like a senior.
Even for girls with difficult relationships, I've always had an attitude of being a senior as a Morning Musume member.
That's Chii's cool side.
But you said it yourself.
Even though you've come this far, you decided to start from scratch.
Chii also said that you made a great decision.
I really think so.
Chii is a gyaru and very cute.
I think you're a small animal type of girl.
But you're really cool.
You have a clear head and feet.
You say what you think you have to say.
Even when you decided to graduate as a Morning Musume member...
Even if you find a problem, it's not like "I'll be gone soon, so I'll close my eyes and close them."
It's because you're gone that I want to tell you properly and say it before I graduate.
Chie has decided to graduate and she's already worried about it.
It's not like I'm going to make my Morning Musume life a little more fun and easier.
I'm going to tell you everything. I'm going to take care of you properly.
She chose this time to use it like that, so I think it's very, very reliable as a senior.
I'm extremely embarrassed about what Chie looks like to you guys.
I'm also very curious about how much Morito Chisaki has been transmitted to the fans.
From my point of view, I think Chie is a very nice girl who has both cute and cool.
One thing I want to tell you is that Chie decided to study abroad with her own will.
She's still looking for someone to go with her every day, but she's so lonely that she's still looking for someone to go with her in the morning.
"Is there anyone you want to go with?" When I said that, she said, "No, I'm lonely about what I've decided."
"That's right," she said. "Someone, let's go together."
But we're going to make sure Chie goes alone and see her off.
Let's wait for Echii-chan to come back!
Morning girls often do something called "motivation checking."
When you check if everyone is ready or not,
you say, "There's nine of you," "There's ten of you," and you confirm it with yourself.
After Ma graduated in December 2021, I became one of the ten.
And if you say normally, "Oh, there's only one of you, so you can't check your motivation,"
Oda was one of you and Chi-chan was one of you, so you two confirmed it like this.
"Chi-chan is here," "Oda-san is here," like that.
And when I said, "Oh, there's only one of you," Chi- chan said, "Oda-san, we're here for you," like that.
Chi-chan might have been easygoing, but I was really happy.
Chi-chan is like that. She's easygoing, but she's always giving me a word of salvation.
After joining Morning Musai, she's learned a lot of songs and worked really hard.
Even after studying abroad in the future, I want you to work hard and do your best.
In the song, there are a lot of times when we dance like this.
The other day, when we were touring, we were singing "Yoshi Yoshi Shite Hoshii Na" in the medley.
We dance like this in that intro, too.
I felt like we were really in sync in that performance.
Everyone has their own personality, feelings, and nuances in dancing.
It's hard to get in sync, even if you have a count.
But I thought Chi-chan and I were really in sync at the time, and I was a very excited person.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Chi-chan was a girl who looked great in feminine dancing.
There aren't many Morning Musume members who look good in that kind of thing.
That's right, me!
I wanted to choreograph a song like "kono mama"
I've been talking about it on my blog and other social media, so I hope you'll check it out.
It wasn't that, but I wanted to choreograph it, and somehow...
The result wasn't good, but...
The choreography I was thinking of somehow...
I was thinking of it all based on the criteria that Chii-chan would look cool if she danced like this.
That's right.
And based on the criteria that Chii-chan would like to dance like this...
It was something I was used to, so I watched it a lot.
Morito...
When Morito first joined Morning Musume...
Eri said in the studio...
Who wants to eat ramen?
When she said that, Morito happened to raise his hand...
And went to eat ramen with Morito.
I think that's the best memory between Morito and Eri.
But...
I really don't have that memory with Eri...
I remember going out with him, but...
I don't have that memory...
So I thought I'd never gone out with Morito in Eri...
But I did go out with Morito.
And it was...
I think it was Morito's second rehearsal...
I don't think I was used to it yet...
During the rehearsal...
Between rehearsals...
It was ramen...
I wish Eri remembered that...
But I don't remember it at all...
But...
Not only that...
After that, there was a concert tour called "Kacchou Fugetsu"...
It was like a demon...
But at that time...
I don't remember it at all...
I haven't talked much with Morito before, but we started talking a lot.
In the first tour, Makino, Morito and Eri were often together as Morning Musume.
We talked all the time in the fall.
And then, at the second "Kachou Fugetsu", Homare came in.
Homar came in and the four of us bought a lot of food and said, "This was delicious."
At the end of it all, I was able to get along with Morito.
It's only recently that I've been able to talk with my juniors.
I'm glad I got along with Morito.
After that, when I talk with Morito, I try not to say anything to my seniors.
Even when I'm abroad...
I've been a shy old man, but I've seen him talk without being shy.
Even when I'm abroad, I'll do my best to make friends.
I've seen him say, "Please follow me."
I want him to see a world that I don't know about.
I want him to learn a lot of things abroad.
And I want him to tell me what happened when we ate together.
In Eri, I think Morito is really good at dancing.
I don't say much about it.
Morito himself doesn't say, "I'm good at dancing, right?"
I'm not in charge of dancing.
Maybe some people don't notice it.
Morito is really good at dancing.
Looking at it as a member...
...and think I'm good at it.
Or think I'm really cool.
I think I'm less likely to think like that.
And Morito's ability to express himself...
...and his love for things and his way of thinking...
...are often said by the members.
Chii-chan's cute! Chii-chan's cute!
And when they're gone, who's going to that field next?
There are things like that, but Morito himself establishes himself...
...and that makes me a little sad.
When I'm not called "Chii-chan's cute" by the MCs...
...the fans are like...
Ah, she's gone.
I think it's a part of me that thinks like that.
Chii-chan is an indispensable presence for Morning Musume.
For me, too...
...my first impression of Hitomi was strong.
But as soon as I joined Morning Musume...
...she was more of a friendly person.
I don't know how to say it...
A lot of Morning Musume members are too serious...
...and think too much about others.
But thanks to Chii-chan joining us...
...we were able to relax and let go of our burdens.
I think there were a lot of members like that.
There are fourteen of us, but among us...
...there are twelve of us who feel the same way.
I really felt this during our activities...
...and I really feel Momotsu-senpai's support.
And... how do I say it...
It felt like we grew up in the same place.
How do I say it...
Senior members and junior members...
Chii-chan is in the 14th generation, so she's one of the junior members.
But I really feel like she's one of the senior members.
I was really happy about it.
I've always loved country girls.
I like Chii-chan like that.
How do I say it...
I like Chii-chan who continues to use what she has learned.
And... how do I say it...
Even after graduation,
she still thinks about Morning Musume.
Like what she wants to do as Morning Musume,
how she wants to live her life,
and how she takes care of her 15th generation members,
and her education.
She really helped me a lot.
I really want to thank her from the bottom of my heart.
And...
I... well...
What I think is amazing about Chii-chan is...
She's so cute, but she doesn't think she's cute.
I think that's a shame.
How do I say it...
Even on stage, when she stands in the center and does this...
How do I say it...
It's not like it's just me,
but there's something about her that draws me to her.
I think that's what makes her Chii-chan.
But I think she's cooler and cuter than Chii-chan thinks.
I think she can do any genre.
I respect that about her.
Yes.
That's right.
Well...
How many years has Chii-chan been with us?
Since 2017...
She's been with us since 2017,
18, 19, 20, 21, 22...
Five years!
I want to be with you more.
So I want to be with you forever and ever.
Yes!
I'm really lonely.
I don't want you to graduate!
I don't know how to end it!
Ever since I was in Country Girls, I love cute Morito- san who does ponytail and I love Morito-san who has red ears and I can see Morito-san who is so cool in the morning. I love Morito-san in various ways!
I will continue to support you! Even if you study abroad, please do your best! I will do my best too!
Cute!
Mei-chan! Mei-chan is also very shy, so it's been a long time since we talked for the first time.
Recently, I'm glad I can finally talk to you!
I will continue to support you!
Do your best!
Mei-chan!
Yes!
Morito-san! Are you watching? It's me, Omotan!
You're so cute!
Morito-san is always so cute to me.
When I change my hair or wear a costume, Morito-san says "Omotan, you're so cute!"
I'm very happy about it.
I can do a lot of people's hair, but I'm not very good at doing it myself.
Morito-san makes me feel that way.
Morito-san is like an older sister to me.
I'm very happy to have Morito-san as my sister.
As I mentioned earlier,
Morito-san texted me when I was on vacation.
I'm very happy about it.
Sometimes I read it back and I feel like I'm going to cry.
Morito-san is always so kind.
Morito-san always has his own ideas.
I always think that Morito-san is so cool.
Since I'm going abroad,
I'm going to be away from Japan for a while.
If anything happens, I'd like to contact you again.
Please keep up the good work!
I'm rooting for you!
Congratulations!
Morito-san...
I think you've grown up.
Well...
I don't know...
I think you'll become a very strong and cool woman.
You're a kind person.
Please help everyone!
Morito-san, keep up the good work!
I love you, too!
Hi, Morito-san!
Graduation is really sad, but you still have a lot of time to dance and express yourself.
In the meantime, I hope you can learn a lot from me and go out for a meal with me and make wonderful memories.
I know you can go abroad, but I'm sure you'll succeed.
I'm sure of it, so please do your best!
I'll do my best, too!
Let's go out for a meal next time!
I'm Orio Kitagawa!
Let's go out for a meal!
I've been saying this all the time, but it doesn't come true at all.
Let's go out for a meal!
We have similar tastes in food, so I'd like to go with you.
Go for it!
I like your singing and dancing, too.
I'm looking forward to your future growth!
Go for it!
Mr. Morito, congratulations on your graduation!
I'm Yukoyama Reina.
Do you know me?
I have a lot of memories with you.
I can't say it here, but we played a lot and took pictures together.
I have a lot of memories with you.
We had a lot of work and time together.
I know a lot about you.
In a word, you're a very kind person.
You've been working with me on many things.
This impression hasn't changed.
You gave me food and gave me a hand.
That's kind of course.
I feel like you're not saying anything and you're giving me a hand.
You're the one who makes me feel at ease when I'm with you.
I have a lot of feelings like that about you.
I think you have a really cool attitude.
I'll keep up with you.
I want you to see me grow up and look cool.
I'm still a morning girl and I want to do my best.
If you get lonely, please contact me before anyone else.
I'll be happy if you call me anytime.
I'm always late to reply, but I'll give it back to you.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
I'd like to thank you for all the advice you've given me.
I'd be happy if you could contact me anytime.
Thank you for all your memories.
Congratulations on your graduation.
It was Yokoyama Rena.
So cute!
Yoko...
Well...
As soon as I joined...
For a year or two...
We played a lot...
We were together for a long time...
I have a lot of memories...
Even though I'm alone...
I don't know...
When I realized it, we were together like this...
I feel like that...
It's kind of strange...
Me too...
A lot...
I was encouraged...
Thank you...
I'm glad...
To meet you...
Thank you...
Please continue to take care of me...
Ms. Morito, congratulations on your graduation!
At first, I didn't know when I became a trainee or when you made your debut.
So we didn't talk for a long time in the first place.
But over the past few years, I've been able to talk a lot about my favorite dances and my favorite artists.
I'm very happy that I was able to get along with you.
I'm very sad that you're leaving us.
I'm looking forward to dancing and performing on stage with you in the future.
Until then, please do your best in your activities abroad.
Today... Not today.
Thank you very much for today.
Keep up the good work!
It's so funny!
Cute!
Interesting!
It's just like you said.
I've made you worry about me a lot.
But now, I'm so happy to be able to get along with you so much.
We have similar hobbies.
We talk a lot about dancing and talking about which part is good.
I always think you're very cool.
There were a lot of parts that I thought were wonderful.
Please get along with the members in the future.
I'm rooting for you.
Are you rooting for me?
No, I'm not saying that.
Congratulations on your graduation, Chi!
First of all, Chi is cute from her appearance.
I think she's a very healing being.
I always look at her Instagram photos and think, "She's cute!"
I think I often took pictures of Chi with a film camera.
When I took pictures of Chi, I felt like my camera was happy, too.
I took a lot of pictures of Chi.
So, if I have a chance to meet you in private or at work in the future, I'd like you to take pictures of me again.
When I can calm down and go out to play, I'd like to go around Chocomint.
I like not only Chocomint, but also black tea.
I'd be happy if we could go on a trip like that together.
I'm sure Chi will get cuter and cuter in the future, so please show us a lot of that cuteness again!
Congratulations on your graduation! I love you!
I love you! I love you! You're cute!
I'm very grateful for the members who taught me a lot of choreography as soon as I joined Morning Musume.
Thank you very much.
I think our hobbies are very similar and it's easy to talk about.
Thank you for a lot of memories!
See you someday!
To Chi-chan, thank you for everything!
I love you, cute Chi-chan!
Let me see you again, Pon-chan!
Bye-bye!
I love you!
I want you!
Maria...
It's nice and simple.
Maria...
A lot of...
I don't know...
We finally started talking last year.
It's been a while, but...
I'm glad we made it in time!
That's what I think the most.
I don't know.
Maria is really good at finding people's good points.
She said a lot about me, like...
She said a lot about me, like... "I like it here."
But I think that's Maria's great thing.
Maria's great thing?
So...
It's not about me.
It's about Maria!
I want you all to know that.
Yes, yes.
Thank you so much!
I love you, Maria!
Chii-chan!
I just received a message from you.
Just hearing you call me "Chii-chan" makes me blush.
I know.
I'm really lonely.
I'm lonely.
When I'm with you, I can't help but laugh.
You're such a forgiving person.
I don't know how to say it.
"Person"?
Is it okay?
That's what I think.
So, before you graduate and go abroad,
I want to stay at a hotel.
I want to stay at a fancy hotel with all of you.
I also want to eat a lot of cafe katsu.
If you know any fancy hotels, please let me know.
Thank you.
And, Chii-chan, I think you know this,
but I'm not the type of person to send messages on LINE.
I'm not good at sending text messages like everyday conversations.
But, even if you go abroad, I want to keep in touch with you.
I'll be brave and send you a message.
So, I hope you send me one.
If you have any problems, please let me know.
It might sound weird, but this is a video message.
We still have a lot of time together at this point in the recording,
so I hope we can continue to spend time together.
And, even after you graduate, I hope we can continue to be friends.
This has been Miki Nanaka.
Bye-bye!
Miki is the same age as me, so it's really easy for me to talk to her.
We went to a lot of cafes together.
She was one of the members who played in private, too.
I can't play with her very often, so I miss her a lot.
We talked about everything together.
I'm sure I'll be able to speak English in the future, so I'd like to be of service to you.
Thank you.
Miki, thank you for always supporting me.
Thank you!
I hope we can continue to get along!
Chii, you decided to graduate school and study abroad. You're great!
I really think so.
I think it took a lot of courage for Chii to choose to go alone.
When Chii told me about her graduation, she was actually planning to go earlier.
Chii spent two years that she shouldn't have spent.
Actually, when Chii decided to graduate for the first time,
I knew that she wanted to study abroad and that Chii had such feelings.
While we were working together for two years that we shouldn't have spent,
I wondered what Chii thought about this time.
I wondered if she wanted to go.
While we were working together for two years that we shouldn't have spent,
I wondered what Chii thought about this time.
But Chii looked like she was having a lot of fun.
When Chii told me about her graduation, she told me about her feelings.
When Chii told me about her two years, I was very relieved.
I feel the same way. I feel like we've become very close in the past two years.
Chii and I joined because we didn't have any motivation.
When everyone was taking selfies, Chii and I tended to be grouped together.
There are a lot of pictures of us together.
After hearing about Chii's graduation, I realized that I was next to Chii a lot.
Even at school, when I found something interesting, I would go and show it to Chii.
At school, I would sit next to her and put on makeup.
I would do her hair for her, and I thought, "Wow, she's in first place."
Even if there were four of us, she would definitely be in first place.
"Yeah, it seems like I was in first place a lot," I said to Fukumura-san.
"No, you have a great image," she said. "I have a great image of Oda and Mori as a set," she said.
"That's right," I realized now.
At first, I felt a wall between us.
When I knocked on that wall, Chii's wall collapsed.
"Mori-chan, you're first!" A gal came out and said.
I had a lot of fun talking with Chii like that.
But I don't think I'm the only one who thinks like that.
I think everyone spends a lot of time with Chii-chan.
At first, Chii looked like a girl who was shy and couldn't speak, and it was easier for her to be alone at the end.
I was happy to know that she was such a friendly girl.
And I think Chii is really cool.
I think it's Chii's charm to decide things and make sure everything is clear.
Chii-chan looks soft and relaxed, but I'm looking forward to her becoming a more high-spec Chii-chan and coming back.
I'm rooting for you in your future life! Good luck!
It was Oda Sakura.
Wow, I'm very afraid of getting messages from my seniors.
As Oda-san said, Oda-san is very kind and doesn't say "no".
Oda-san can say anything, like "do it for me" or when I'm asking for a favor or when I'm tired of makeup, Oda-san said "then I'll do it for you" and there were a lot of parts where Oda-san was very spoiled, so thank you very much and I think Oda-san took care of me a lot.
I think there were a lot of parts that Oda-san saved.
I think I'll probably want to contact you again in the future, so please don't be lazy and I'd be happy if you could answer my calls. Thank you in advance.
Chi-chan!
When you told us about your graduation announcement, I was very sad and said, "I'm lonely."
But we were really lonely. Even when we were doing a live show, we were always checking in with each other.
I was happy to be next to you all the time, and you were my partner in "I won't do it for you."
So I'm a little lonely about losing you again.
But I'm happy that you're dancing next to me and I'm happy that you're dancing next to me.
Also, when you first joined "Morning Musu", I think it was both of you, but you couldn't speak well.
I felt like we couldn't speak well because we were both shy.
But I've come to like you more and more and I've come to know your funny side.
I was happy that we could go out for dinner and celebrate our 20s.
The timing of joining "Morning Musu" may have been different, but you're a person who gets really close to older girls.
I was very happy.
You know my opinions and you listen to my opinions about China.
You helped me a lot. Thank you so much.
I'd like you to tell me about your plans for studying abroad after graduation.
Let's go eat together again!
Chi-chan, love!
I'm happy!
But Ishida-san...
What I think about Ishida-san...
I also have nothing to say.
That's right.
Really...
After all...
The Morning Musume I was watching...
Especially the one I admired...
One Four-san...
I mean...
It was the era of One Four...
At that time...
Masayashi-san and Ishida-san were dancing with all their might...
I never thought I would be there...
In the same position...
Dancing with Ishida-san in pairs...
I didn't think of it at all...
Even if I had that experience...
I was very happy...
Even in the singles I joined and released...
There were many parts where I danced with all my might...
Somehow...
I was very happy...
Somehow...
If I say dancing, it's Ishida-san...
I had that image of course...
Is it okay for me to dance next to such a person?
I had such feelings at first...
Somehow...
I was able to dance a lot...
I was able to dance together...
I was very happy about it...
That's why...
I'm really happy that you said that...
Thank you very much...
That's right...
And...
On my 20th birthday...
You celebrated it for me...
Um...
Yamaki Risa-chan and Ishida-san were very close...
Fukumura Mizuki-san and the four of me...
We ate together...
You took me out for dinner...
Somehow...
I'm happy just to celebrate my own 20th birthday...
But I was able to eat with such seniors...
I'll never forget it...
I'll never forget what happened at that time...
I still remember it very vividly...
And...
Really... Ishida-san is...
Really...
My feelings of "I'm sorry" are very strong...
Ishida-san...
At first...
You gave me a lot of dance and advice...
At first, I didn't really listen to anyone and just said, "Oh, it's okay. Please leave me alone."
But I thought I had to thank Mr. Ishida for telling me not to give up and not to look down on me.
I realized it now, not now, but when I grew up.
It's too late.
I'm really sorry.
But even now, thank you for giving me a lot of advice at that time.
Thanks to you, I'm where I am now.
I'm really grateful.
Thank you very much.
Please continue to support me.
To Morito!
Yes, congratulations on graduating from Morito!
Well, it's the same for Morning Musume.
In "Country Girls", there were a lot of things I thought about with the flow of various eras.
Well, we're basically the top members, and we've been sitting in a tough environment.
Well, the way I interact with my juniors, and my attitude towards dancing and singing in the past.
We talked about a lot of things like that.
I'm really sorry for Morito, but I really don't remember eating ramen.
If you invite me again, I'll go for dinner.
I'd be happy if you could invite me for dinner.
Also, I know where Morito goes overseas.
I'm really looking forward to it.
Of course I'm studying language abroad, but I really like Morito's dancing.
I'd like you to go to his dancing lessons and improve your dancing even more.
When you come back to Japan, please show me Morito's energetic dancing again!
Congratulations on graduating!
Ikuto-san...
Yes, we went out for ramen.
When we just joined the company.
I remember that, but Ikuto-san said she didn't remember it.
Well, it's nice to have memories like that.
I'm very happy to have memories like that with you.
I want to live without forgetting it in the future.
I hope I can go to the next meal that remains in Ikuto- san's memory.
Ikuto-san also caused me a lot of trouble, but I'm really sorry.
But you've talked to me so much and I've felt a lot of your kindness.
Last year and 2021, we were in the same group for the Hello! Project concert.
I think I talked a lot at that time, too.
I'm very happy to make a lot of memories and memories.
Yes, let's go for a meal again.
Congratulations on your graduation, Chi-chan!
I'm lonely!
I'm really lonely.
I'm telling myself that I'm lonely, but I'm really lonely.
I don't want you to stop.
That's my honest feeling right now.
Well, I still have some time to say these words, but...
When I realize it, I feel lonely.
I've talked about this with Chi-chan before.
Well...
I'm not going to say it.
What is it?
Well...
I've talked about this with her before.
What is it?
Well...
I asked her to tell me about this part of "Morning Musume".
At that time, I thought it was a time when I had a serious clash with Chi-chan.
Well, you graduate before me, so it doesn't work out.
Well, there are things that couldn't be realized, but...
I've been saying this all the time, but...
You really did a lot for "Morning Musume".
Thank you, really.
Well...
What is it?
When I joined "Morning Musume" for the first time,
we were both so lonely that we were like, "Oh, thank you."
I've been regretting it all the time.
The leaders of the other two teams were like, "Welcome!"
I don't know what to say.
Well...
When I think about the feelings of "country",
I don't know how to say it.
I always regret that I couldn't do it properly.
But, you know, I used to say that I had a bad attitude at that time.
It's not like that at all.
You've always been cute and you've always worked hard for me.
When you say "I'm sorry", I don't think you're in trouble at all.
That's why I wanted to be with you more.
I'm going abroad, so I'm going to be away from you.
I love you so much that I want to go see you.
I hope we can play and meet a lot in the future.
At first, I thought it would be nice if you liked Morning Musume.
Now, I'm the same Morning Musume.
I was really happy to feel like that.
Thank you for joining Morning Musume.
I love you.
I'm happy.
I think I have a very similar personality with Fukumura-san.
When I joined Morning Musume, I was thinking about what kind of face I should make.
We're probably really the same.
It's like a face you didn't know what to do with.
I think we both looked like that.
I've always felt sorry for you.
But you said it, and you said it wasn't like that.
I'm really saved by your kindness.
Even now, I'm really saved.
I can't thank you enough for all you've done for me, and for always supporting me.
I'm so happy that I can be spoiled like this.
I think I've spoiled you a lot.
But I think I was able to do it because we got closer and the distance got shorter.
But it's all thanks to you guys that we're able to live like this.
Thank you so much.
Fukumura-san was always with me.
She was with me and she was able to talk about anything.
I'm a little sad that we can't see each other often.
Let's call each other!
Come see me anytime! I'll be waiting for you!
I love you!
So, it's been about 7 and a half years?
Wow! That's amazing!
It felt like it was long and it felt like it was short.
But I spent too much time with you.
Well...
I spent too much time thinking "Is there anything deeper than this in my life?"
I was happy and sad and had a hard time.
I had a lot of experiences.
It was painful and painful.
But because of all of that, I was able to see and feel a lot.
There were a lot of things that made me happy.
I think all of my experiences have made me who I am now.
Thank you so much for making me like this.
I don't know what kind of person you were, but I was very happy to meet so many people.
I want to say thank you to everyone who watched and cheered for me.
Thank you very much!
This has been Morning Musume's Moritachi Saki!
Bye bye!
