AISubs v3.5
Mr. Maeda, welcome to the AKB theater!
Thank you!
You're finally here!
Mr. Maeda, is this your first time coming to the theater?
No, it's my first time.
Oh, is it really your first time?
I've seen you on TV a few times.
This is the entrance.
The members are here.
Ms. Kashiwagi is here, too.
Yes, I'm here.
The reason we're at the AKB theater today is...
The final screening of "OUT OF 48" will be held here.
Wow, it's finally happening!
This is the theater.
Yes.
Right now, rehearsals are being held inside.
I'm excited!
The final screening means...
Today, the debut members will be decided.
Wow, it's finally happening!
I'm excited about watching through this door.
It's true, isn't it?
Before we start the show,
we'd like to look back at the faces of the 14 members who remained in the final screening.
Please do.
First of all, the four general participants.
I was originally quite an idol and otaku, and I was attracted to the fact that I dance easily but make such an effort behind the scenes.
I've been longing for it since I was little, but my dad told me it wasn't good because I wasn't very cute.
It's the same. My mom told me a lot, too.
It's commonplace.
I want to do what I can do because I like it.
"Sakurazaka"? 3 or 4 o'clock.
Momusu's 3 o'clock screening.
It's all halfway.
I went to a good place, but everyone was so cute that I thought, "Oh, no, this is it."
I gave up a lot at that time.
I went all the way to the end, but I fell.
Parai was talking from the 4 o'clock screening to the final screening.
Parai is the one I remember the most.
It was like an acquaintance.
My mom sent me this out-of-this-world book.
I'm not very good at singing and dancing, but I've been allowed to stay this far.
You're really good at dancing.
I don't remember it at all.
I'm worried and worried about whether other judges will think, "Oh, I'm glad I chose this far."
No, first of all, Kuranon-san, in everything.
That goes for dancing, of course, and leadership.
He's someone who speaks for himself.
Even in such a busy time, he's so passionate about each and every thing and does it perfectly.
It's really simply amazing.
I want to be someone who makes people think, "It'd be nice if I could line up with Kuranon-san and other AKB members."
I used to play a child's role when I was little.
When I was in kindergarten, my mom put me in the agency.
I took auditions for various genres.
When I was five years old, I was taking a dance lesson.
That's when I really started to like singing and dancing.
At that time, I was also an underground idol once.
When I was in the third grade of middle school, I was going to continue being an idol for a long time.
Then I went to high school in Kiedo.
And now I'm in my third year of high school.
But there is an age limit for idols to become an idol.
Most of them are between 20 years old and 21 years old.
When I was 18 years old, I sometimes wondered if I could become an idol.
When I just started auditioning,
I only had a feeling of "will I be OK tomorrow?"
But I failed many times.
As I kept trying, I started to feel like "will I be OK?"
I'm waiting for the day when I'll be called out.
What did you like about being an idol?
I liked bands more than idols.
I didn't listen to many idol songs.
But when I was in high school, I got into another agency and auditioned for that agency.
At first, I auditioned for a program called "Mameshiba no Taigun-san".
And eventually I started watching "wish-san".
And from there, I started admiring "wiss-san".
I can totally understand you.
If you say it like that, I can totally understand you.
It's not like you want to look cute as an idol.
I could see your emotions and feelings in your performance.
When I saw your back, I thought "this is going to happen".
I was particular about "back", but my mother sent it to me before I knew it, and I knew about this audition after a temporary screening, and she said "I want you to be an idol even if you are not back", "I want you to make your dream come true" and sent it to me.
I thought it would be cool if it sold more than "back" if I did it anyway, so I decided to take it.
Originally, I came here without knowing about AKB, but I got to talk with Oguri-san, Seina-san, Sai- san and Sora-san, and I started to like AKB more and more, and I still love them a lot.
First of all, it's Oguri-san.
When I was drafted for the first time, Oguri-san called me by my name, and it gave me a lot of confidence.
Oguri-san told me to look in the mirror a lot and practice, and when I was conscious of looking in the mirror myself, Oguri-san told me that I was getting better, and when I was in "body and soul", I was in a different team, but Oguri-san made me shoot videos of me dancing, and Oguri-san told me that I was getting better, and even though we were in different teams, Oguri-san supported me like that, so I want to say thank you the most.
Leaders and seniors have a lot of influence, don't they?
Yes, they do.
What was it?
Oh, yes, yes!
A talk show?
Yes, it was a talk show during a break.
Yes, it was like "send it to me", wasn't it?
It's well conveyed to everyone.
I've done "takarazuka" examinations before, but it's the first time for me to do this kind of "entertainment".
From the fourth grade of elementary school to the first year of high school, I've really lived only looking at "takarazuka".
It's tough, but I think I've been taught things that are still my pillars.
Three times.
Wow!
She admired "takarazuka" so much!
I totally agree with you!
It's elegant.
It's elegant, isn't it?
You know what I mean, don't you?
When I quit "takarazuka" examinations, I thought about what I wanted to be.
I had a great longing for idols.
At that time, I found this audition.
I went to Tokyo and auditioned there.
And I'm an idol.
I don't think "takarazuka" had as much support as "takarazuka".
But now, they support me a lot.
We, the general public, have nothing left if we fail.
We have to find something else and do our best again.
I had the image that I was practicing hard.
I could relax in a good way.
I could relax as a real idol.
I've never been in the same group as Sato Airi.
She was practicing "wanami" next to me.
I was very surprised.
She was very beautiful and good at it.
She practiced "wanami" from the beginning.
It's easy to talk to.
Besides Ms. Furuyama, Mr. Sashia, Ms. Otoka, Ms. Arisa,
I think I have to win in order to fulfill my dream while carrying various thoughts.
Information you didn't know.
There was a lot of information you didn't know.
There was, wasn't there?
The four of you have a lot of individuality.
Ms. Tanaka has a lot of emotions, so I feel like I'm close to her.
I feel like a family member.
The way you talk and the way you really think.
It's natural.
You don't look down on me.
It's very attractive.
Now, let's move on to the three members who are active as the central members of AKB.
First of all, when I was in kindergarten, I wanted to be an idol.
Teachers always ask me, "What is your future?"
At that time, I wrote, "I definitely want to be an idol."
In the future, I've always wanted to stand in front of people and make someone smile.
That meant I was an idol at the time.
And then, when I was doing musicals, I played the same role as Sakura Miyagaki.
That's when I first heard that Sakura was active in HKT.
I saw myself climbing higher and higher without knowing my limits.
I wanted to be someone like Sakura who keeps climbing higher and higher.
And at that time, I had an audition for the 16th generation and I thought I'd take it.
I'm not satisfied with myself right now.
I'll do my best in the selection process.
And I hope I'll have more opportunities to grow myself.
I want to try more things.
And I want to bring those experiences back to the selection process.
That's what I'm trying to do.
I don't know if it was my first time as a leader, but I was the most nervous during the audition, and I couldn't show my full skills.
I was so scared that I didn't want to look back at my facial expressions.
Honestly, I thought I might have failed that audition.
First of all, I couldn't make it to the top because I was called out.
And I was waiting for everyone's name.
While I was being called out, I thought I'd definitely be called out for my team's name.
After I was called out for my team's name, I realized I'd only be called out for a little while longer.
But in the end, everyone but me didn't make it.
We met on this show and became a team and spent time together.
I'm glad I got this experience of auditioning and I want you to spend it with me in the future.
That's why I sent you a long text message.
And you said you admired Yuna.
I'm so happy about that.
Just like I admire Sakura.
Just like I admire Yuna.
I think I need to be a better person.
So the feeling of a center and a leader are completely different, right?
Oh, it's completely different.
And there are girls other than the members, and there are juniors, and it's probably the first time I've pulled it out myself.
I think it's my personality, and I'm probably the type of person who likes it.
When I was a kid, I was a kid's model.
I admired the world where I could take pictures and shine.
And at a time when AKB48 was really popular...
Actually, about half a year before I took my teammate's audition, I was taking that HKT audition.
I gave up halfway through.
Like, "Your parents should apply for that audition."
And then, well, half a year later, I took my teammate's audition.
And for about half a year, like, there was a period of that lesson.
And when I took that lesson, I was dancing at home all the time.
I was like, "Huh? When I realized it, I was dancing."
And the audition that was closest to me when I felt that way was my teammate's audition.
So I gave up my teammate's audition.
I've been worried about it all the time.
- Director So and Mr. Okada. - Ms. Nana-san, Mr. Okada Nana-san.
I really talked about it in the dressing room before I graduated from high school.
But I realized that I had to make AKB48 more popular.
"If you're not sure, why don't you just do it?" People around me often say that.
But in the end, it's up to you.
I don't know which will be my chance.
Yeah, I think so.
The members who participated from general practice practice every day, and I feel like I have to answer when I see the girls who are doing it with great enthusiasm.
I feel like I'm here to show off like this, and that enthusiasm is really stuck, and that kind of mental part and ordinary technical part.
I think I was able to learn myself from this audition, and it gave me a chance to know myself that I was still weak here, and I thought, "Oh, I'm going to rank it first."
I've been doing it with the feeling of "I want to be a girl who can sing and dance" for the past few years, so I was happy normally, but I was nervous.
There was also a feeling like "I want my own team member to sing as much as possible", and it was painful.
You can clearly see it, can't you?
A standing girl is facing you and a fallen girl is sitting.
It was painful and painful.
I think everyone practiced for such a long time,
and I saw their efforts, so it was painful and I thought they were working so hard.
I was lonely and sad that it would end like this.
But I said both of us that we were definitely the best in the group.
I've said that twice in the past, so for me...
"Everyone was good, but we were the best", I said to everyone.
So tomorrow is also a screening, but I think it's better not to think too much about screening.
I think it's best if we can have fun and have fun with each other and have fun with each other's faces.
I had four friends in a group of four, and I thought, "Well, let's have an audition with four of us."
In the end, I was the only one who applied, but everyone said it with enthusiasm, and then I received it and said, "Take a model pose at this time." It's really cute.
It's really cute.
It's the best.
At first, I didn't know how AKB was organized, so I thought we'd get along with each other.
Then I gradually realized that there were people who could participate in the music video and people who couldn't participate in it, and I thought, "Why?"
Oh, I'm being selected. Oh no, I'm late.
At first I was impatient, but my fans told me that I should be myself and be myself.
At first you didn't stand out at all. You really didn't say anything in the center.
All of a sudden, in the past few years, you've come this far.
But what I was aware of was that I didn't think anything negative.
"Why isn't it me?" or "Why am I in this position?"
I didn't say anything like that.
After all, what you're given is where you stand now.
Looking for what you can do in it and doing it your own way, I got the center position for the first time.
Wow!
I heard that out of 48 is a group that specializes in dancing a little bit, so I was wondering if you could tell me about it.
I've always loved dancing and I've always admired small groups like units.
I thought it might be a chance for me, so I didn't think about it when I got it.
But as I was doing it, I thought, "Oh, if I lose this assessment, I'm in trouble."
When I was called by my name, I was like, "What if I'm not called by my name here?"
I feel like I'm under pressure.
When I was told my ranking for the first time, I thought, "Oh, I can be ranked."
Oh, I'm not first place. I'm frustrated.
That's how I felt.
My feelings are already one hundred percent.
Of course, it's...
I'm involved with the general public in out of, and the general public is more passionate about the group, and there are girls who have fallen from the selection of out of, so everyone has been working hard for this group seriously, and we want to pass it on to the end seriously, and I felt it again.
It made me feel a lot of things in my heart.
After all, everyone was hoping for the group screening together with everyone, but it didn't come true, and it felt like everyone was saying it a little bit, didn't it?
The first solo concert of the 17th grade students will be held from August 6th to K.T. Zeppe Okawa.
From August 4th to 6th, tickets will be on sale at the venue. You can also buy it on the day, so please go and see it!
As expected, I wanted to stay, so I was happy.
I thought it was really the last one for the timing, and I went.
It's fun even to be in a hurry.
Well then, everyone, please!
Please give me a round of applause!
Wow! It's like I've seen it before!
