February 16, Tuesday.
What day was it yesterday, Mr. Taka?
Valentine's Day.
What memories did you have for Valentine's Day?
What are you talking about? It's Valentine's Day every year.
What about you, ma'am?
Huh?
It's your first Valentine's Day, isn't it?
Yes, it is.
Aren't you going to give me one?
I don't know about this, Mr. Taka.
Why didn't you give me one on my own Valentine's Day?
Personally?
Personally, on Valentine's Day...
I already got one.
Oh.
Who do you think is this year's strawberry?
Who?
Ayumi Ishida.
That's nice.
I'm a little happy about it.
I wonder how Seiko's cousin is doing.
What's up with you?
I mean, you know...
Our celebrity world...
I know you want to introduce us to each other...
I know you like us...
But you haven't done anything for us!
You should say something about Seiko's condition.
I think she's watching you.
Please!
Well, then...
Let me introduce you to Seiko's family.
They are the stars of "Morning Musume."
Here they are!
Good morning, everyone!
Thank you for coming!
Thank you for having us!
It's getting brighter and brighter.
It's not about Nakazawa.
It's getting brighter and brighter.
It's not about Nakazawa.
Thank you very much!
I'm happy.
It's not about Nakazawa.
Good morning, Morning Musume.
It seems like you've been pretty busy this year.
Not only this year, but it's been a year since you debuted?
Yes, that's right.
It's been a year since you debuted.
Let's take a look back at that year.
Wow!
January 28th, 1998.
Your first single, "Morning Coffee," debuted.
At a time when your name and your face don't match yet,
you were ranked 6th in the world of polygons.
You were known as "the four openers."
And your debut became a new challenge for you.
"Yatsuda Kei," "Gyaguchi" and "Kaniyo,"
all three of you ranked 1st in the world of polygons.
And you became a new member.
When you first sang "Kaniyo,"
you were revealed to be a member of "Akushi."
Out of the three of you, which one did you like better?
Let's see...
"Atsumi" was better, wasn't it?
That's a personal opinion!
However, "Kaniyo," which was such a hot topic,
was reversed.
Your second single, "Summer Night Town,"
was ranked 4th in the world of polygons.
Your first album, "First Time," was released,
and at your part-time concerts abroad and abroad,
you were ranked 12,004th in the world of polygons.
In addition, Morning Musume, a group of new idols, has grown abnormally.
In addition, at the same time, as a new group, they released a solo album.
Yuko Nakazawa made her solo debut as an Enka singer and won first place in Enka chart with her first single "Karasu no Nyoubo".
On the other hand, Morning Musume also won first place in Enka chart with their third single "Like Hold On Me".
In addition, in the second solo, a group of three people - a leader, Ishiguro, and Yaguchi - released "Last Kiss", which was released in November, and it was a great success.
From this dizzying development, in December of their early years, many young people came to Japan.
Japan's top priority newcomer award.
They won the best newcomer award in Japan and made it to the top of idols.
In addition, they made their first appearance while making their debut in "Kohaku Utagassen".
"Morning Musume" in 1998, for those of you who have just reviewed it, it must have been a turbulent year at a speed that even your own names would be hazy.
You see yourselves and applaud yourselves.
Is there anything you were most happy about?
For me...
On one show, Taka-san said "Congrats on your confession!" and walked away, but I don't think you remember his face.
I remember, I remember, I remember!
I was very happy.
Hey, Nakata-san, you're older than me, you should know better!
How old are you now, Nakata-san?
32, was it?
I was very happy to hear Taka-san's confession.
Ah, so you already know about me.
I know about you, Nakata-san, Hirota, Yamada...
What was it?
Shibata, Taka-san...
Tanimoto...
Johnson?
Johnson!
If you look at the co-actors, these two...
Who's the messiah?
Johnson is like...
That's how it ends, right?
At the end...
That's true!
Johnson is different!
That's right!
Johnson is like...
At the end, Johnson is like...
That's terrible, Johnson!
Johnson's solo is "Ask Solo", right?
Yes.
Ah, that's right!
When Johnson laughs...
That's wrong!
When I watch TV, is Johnson always angry?
He's not angry!
He's angry, he's angry!
I want you to say "I love you" just once!
He's not angry!
That's not it at all!
He's not that wicked!
Everytime I look at him and say "Hey, smile!"
Johnson gets angry!
At that moment, the camera will take only one shot.
This is the best shot.
At that moment, Johnson will definitely say...
Hey, smile!
I can't smile at all!
Johnson is always smiling.
What if we sing a happy song?
Stand up for a moment.
Abe-chan and the bowling girl.
Abe-chan and the bowling...
bowling girl.
No way!
And Jason, well...
Jason!
Abe-chan, stand up for a moment.
Stand up for a moment.
Ready, go!
Please love me one more time
Please kiss me with your wet hair
Please kiss me
Hey, smile!
I'm serious, Johnson.
Hey, smile! Join us!
Johnson's sound is...
Hey, Johnson
Ready, go!
Please love me one more time
Please kiss me with your wet hair
Please kiss me
Right now...
From what I can see...
It's about 1/10 of what it used to be.
When you're really excited...
At that moment...
Hey, don't laugh!
It's not like that.
Then, what was the last song from the past?
It's not "don't laugh", what was it?
What was the last song from the past?
"Foo".
"Foo"?
"Foo", "Foo", "Foo", "Foo", "Foo", "Foo", "Foo"
Johnson's "Foo".
Hey, don't laugh!
I'll sing it.
Ah, I see.
At that moment...
It's different in the actual performance.
How was it?
Wait, wait, wait.
Hey, don't laugh!
It's really different.
Johnson always...
He's surprised.
He's always smiling and...
"Foo".
Rather than smiling and...
"Foo".
No, no, no.
Hey, don't laugh!
"Foo".
Do you think everyone will like it if you laugh?
Because you're tall and...
Hey, don't laugh!
"Foo".
What are you saying?
"Foo".
Johnson, I'm sorry!
"Foo".
Don't say it! Smile! Smile!
Smile!
Johnson is scary!
Johnson's eyes are wide open, so he's scary!
Smile and say you're cute!
His eyes are big, so do it like this...
Smile and say you're cute!
Smile and say you're cute, Johnson!
Smile and say you're cute!
One, two, three, four!
Smile and say you're cute!
Hey, smile!
You smiled!
Everyone wants that!
That was wonderful!
You're always glaring at me!
You should be more powerful and say "smile!"
You're so cute!
Well done!
When he kicked me, I felt like...
I felt like a human revolution!
A new type of revolution!
I can't kick you in the butt!
I'm sorry!
I don't know if I've ever kicked you in the eye, but...
I really wanted to kick you!
It's really popular in England now!
It's really popular!
It's really easy to get used to!
It's definitely easy to get used to!
It's always easy!
That was good!
Was it good?
I'll definitely use it!
Will you use it?
I'll use it!
It's perfect!
But I won't use it until you kick me!
Now, let's get down to business!
Business!
Since our debut, we've been very busy!
Today's topic is...
Fukuda will quit!
Well, he does it in any show, but...
You're quitting?!
Yes!
Right?! Do your best!
Well, then...
That's too easy!
You know...
Everyone's doing it, right? Which show are you on?
Everyone's asking you, right?
The other day, I saw the news and...
Oh, Fukuda! Morning Musume has combined!
What?!
They're going back to the bowling alley?!
Morning Musume?!
They're going back to the bowling alley?!
Didn't your leader say anything? Didn't you persuade him?
Me?
No!
"Don't think about it, do it now!" I said that, but...
What?!
Don't think about it, do it now!
"Don't think about it, do it now!" I said that, but...
I thought about it, so...
It's okay, Yuu-chan!
I was persuaded against it.
Then who's going to sing?
Who?
That's a problem.
I don't know.
Isn't that nice?
But isn't it like "Alright, it's decided!"
Isn't it nice?
I know that!
That's...
Shut up!
It's definitely a good chance!
The chances of singing increase!
That's right, so...
Yasuda-san and Ichi-san...
They're aiming for a little...
A little...
They're aiming for it, right?
It's not like they're aiming for it, but...
It's like...
They're aiming for it, right?
Right?
They're aiming for it!
They're definitely aiming for it!
They're aiming for it!
I don't think they're that happy about it!
Do you know the joy of singing?
I don't know!
You can sing a song...
Yes...
You can dance...
Morning Musume's...
Hana piyasu and...
Jonosuke...
Even in front of you...
And...
Yajui-san can also dance...
Yes, she can...
Ichi-san and Yasuda-san...
I think...
I think this is...
Don't you think, Yasuda-san?
A little...
You think, don't you?
I think those kind of singers are better!
Right?
I don't think it's a chance.
You think so, don't you?
Yeah.
You aimed for a scary shot, didn't you?
But it's not just that, is it?
What?
What do you mean?
Because Asuka quit and we've been together as a member.
What?
It's lonely, isn't it?
That's right, but let's talk about the song now.
Let's listen to the song now.
That's why I always say it, but...
If you look at me like that...
What's wrong with you?
This program is brought to you by a lion...
Edwin...
Unicharm and these sponsors.
Edwin...
Fukuda and Asuka are going to be separated.
Actually, we've received a message from a foreign artist.
Fukuda, don't quit.
Let's listen to it.
Morning Musume's Asuka Fukuda has received this love call in her singing room.
Hi, Japanese TV "Uta band".
Oh, no! Just when I thought I finally found someone I'd love to sing a duet with...
I'm so shocked! It seems like I've been dumped by the love of my life!
Please, just think it over! I'm begging you! Don't leave me behind!
Oh, no! Just when I thought I finally found someone I'd love to sing a duet with...
I'm so shocked! It seems like I've been dumped by the love of my life!
Please, just think it over! I'm begging you! Don't leave me behind!
Please, just think it over! Don't leave me behind!
I get it now. If you say you'll continue, don't underestimate me.
Is there a problem with what you just said?
It's "hoitoito" and "michael".
Then let's start with someone bigger.
Yes.
From "love call".
Oh, from another industry.
This is for real. Please have a look.
Morning Musume.'s Hidaka.
Nice to meet you.
I'm from the Japanese Bowling Association.
In the song version, Ishibaki Takahashi from "tunnels"
often calls Asuka "the receptionist of the bowling alley".
Thanks to that, the number of young people in the bowling alley is increasing.
Bowling is booming in Japan.
Thank you very much.
I'd like to adopt this image of bowling and sell it.
I'd like to raise Asuka Fukuda as a talent.
Don't quit. Stay in the bowling club.
Become a real bowler and do your best.
You're making me speechless.
Don't quit. Stay in the bowling club.
You're making me embarrassed.
Let's ask the members.
To be honest, I'd like to ask you something.
Please close your eyes.
I'd like you to tell me how you really feel.
If you don't want me to tell you,
Be quiet!
Here you go.
I see.
Thank you.
I knew it.
The leader thought it was time for him to quit.
It doesn't matter who opened it and who closed it.
The leader said he would quit no matter what you said, so you knew it, didn't you?
Well...
Yuu-chan, Yuu-chan, don't cry, Yuu-chan.
You're laughing too much.
Yuu-chan, don't cry.
I'm sorry.
You're wrong.
No, you're lying.
See, I'm lying.
Yuu-chan, you're a genius!
Please don't think about it anymore.
I've told you my honest answer.
Yes, I'm looking forward to it.
Now, Darai-kun.
Yes.
I'll read mine.
Persuasion.
I'm Osumappu, too.
Don't read it!
It's a good light and BGM.
Don't read it.
Don't read it like that.
Okay, okay.
I'll read mine.
From Masahiro...
Persuasion of Fukuda.
Persuasion.
I think it's a difficult choice, but...
I've had that experience, too.
Well, it's based on experience, so...
I wasn't the one who would quit, but the one who would stay.
I can't say for sure how people feel about quitting, but...
the people around me are very lonely.
Year after year, for me...
Ten years...
It's been exactly ten years, and in commemoration of my tenth anniversary...
some members have decided to quit.
But it's the path they want to take, and everyone...
I can't explain it in words, but...
I wanted to make you laugh from the bottom of my heart.
Hey! Laugh!
I made you laugh! Not that kind of laugh!
I made you laugh!
I made you laugh! Not that kind of laugh!
Hey, Minji! Start!
Start!
What's wrong with you?
You scared me!
But when I think about the environment around me...
I think I made up my mind after thinking about the environment around me.
When I say I'm leaving as a solo member...
It's a promise that I'll never come back.
I'll never come back.
I won't say I'm going as a solo member,
and I won't say I'll never come back.
Instead of that, I'll stay in that world.
We'll become No. 1, so we'll stay in that world.
Hey, what are you doing?!
I told you to stay there!
It's dark but don't sleep!
The background music is so sleepy!
I was so sleepy last night!
It's getting late.
The set is okay, thank you.
What's with you?
The set is not okay!
Wait, let me say it again.
The three of you will come back for the fifth episode.
We'll officially announce it then.
The viewers, the members, and the staff still believe in a small possibility.
Shall we announce it together?
One, two...
"Morning Musume." "Memory. Youthful Light."
"Youthful Light" isn't an age.
Memory. Youthful Light
Instant head touch, a lamey embrace
As I submerge through your radiant space
My lady in lace, elegant pace
Telling my waist you hate his shady embrace
The dreamy in taste, the fine fruits of hard labor
You want me to feast in the god's graveyard
Wanting me loving my behavior seems crass
Grimming you as you pass
You're weak and boned, way beyond
Tree smoking, cognac, your love
May I remind you, hell's right behind you
On that night when I woke up and fell apart
I'm saying this with all my might
To a tired love
I'll give you the key to this room back.
Goodbye
I don't want to see that face again
Goodbye
the person you loved
You can tear up the memo.
But you called until the end.
It was my first time meeting someone who was so kind.
My memory is getting corrupted
About my new girlfriend
don't love like me
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, love
It's okay to break and throw away a memo
But I hope you'll read it until the end
It's the first time I've met someone so kind
Even though we're leaving
Don't love a new girlfriend like me
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
goodbye
