AISubs v3.7
Good evening!
Is there such a way of starting?
Let's go!
AKB48 15th anniversary live stream!
Yeah!
Thank you!
First of all, please introduce yourselves one by one.
Yes! I'm Manami Ichikawa. Nice to meet you!
Yay! Yay!
Yes! I'm Miyon Mukaichi. Nice to meet you!
Hello!
Yes! Today we're all...
Komiharu Smile!
We'll make sure you all have a Komiharu Smile!
I'm Haruka Komiyama, also known as Komiharu. Nice to meet you!
Komiharu!
Komi-chan!
Yes! I'm Yumotami of the ARIGA-TAG-TAG team. Nice to meet you!
Yay!
Komi-chan!
Should we do a catchphrase for this?
Let's do it!
Yes! I'll go first!
You say...
Sei-chan!
More! More!
Sei-chan!
Yes! I'm Sei-chan, also known as Fukuoka Seina.
Long version!
Yay!
Yes!
I'm...
Megu!
I'm Megu Taniguchi, also known as Megu of CLANO's NaruNaru Team 4.
Nice to meet you!
Megu!
Yes! I'm Sato Kiara, also known as Kii-chan of CLANO's NaruNaru Team 4.
We're idols!
Nice to meet you!
Yay!
We're AKB48's 15th generation.
Yesterday, June 5th, it's been 10 years since our debut!
Yay!
Wow!
10 years!
10 years is crazy!
It's crazy!
A newborn baby is a 4th grader!
That's right!
It's amazing!
It's amazing growth!
You can do pretty much anything now that you're in 4th grade.
In 2013, at Nippon Budokan, we had our research student Budokan concert.
That was our debut.
It's been 10 years since then.
Time flies!
Was it long?
I think it was surprisingly long.
I can remember each memory at once.
Why?
A bug was flying.
I'm sorry.
A bug was flying.
When I think about it, it was surprisingly long.
A lot of things happened.
It was dark.
A lot of things happened.
It was dark.
A lot of things happened.
When I held the 10th anniversary event the day before yesterday,
I made a miracle video by myself.
Wow!
I saw it!
Really? Wow!
I made a miracle video with AKB48's famous song "Because you were there for me".
I gradually grew up from my audition.
The first half of my life was always in my 15th year of college.
Right.
Even when I was a research student.
After I graduated from college, I could do many things in my 15th year of college.
I spent a lot of time with my friends in my 15th year of college.
That's right.
I became very emotional.
We have a lot of memories.
Yes.
Today, we would like to talk about our 10-year-old memories.
First of all, we prepared a wallpaper photo of our first year in the theater.
But...
Can I say one thing?
When we joined AKB48, our first job was probably a wallpaper photo shoot.
That's right.
Before we had lessons, we had our first job in a movie theater lobby.
Yes, we did.
We had our first job in a movie theater lobby.
That's right.
It was our first job.
We didn't know anything.
We were just girls.
Yes, we were just girls.
Yes.
Shall we say it together?
Yes.
One, two...
Ta-da!
How do you like it?
Have you changed?
You've all grown up.
Kii-chan, it's the other way around.
It's the other way around.
Kii-chan!
Kii-chan, I'll hide your face.
I want to see you one by one.
Yes, one by one.
For Manami...
Yes.
Her hair...
Her bangs...
Her bangs were always long.
I've had bangs for about a year and a half since I joined AKB.
But you look really cool now.
Yes.
You look like a woman now.
Yes.
You look like a young boy.
You look very sharp.
I think I've become kinder.
Yes.
When I think of the time when I was a back dancer, I think of this face.
I know.
When I joined AKB for the first time, I drew a caricature of everyone's faces.
That's nostalgic.
Manami didn't have bangs and her eyes were sharp.
Really?
Yes.
That Manami...
Yes.
That Manami...
That Manami is nostalgic.
She's round now.
Sei-chan.
Sei-chan!
Isn't your left eye swollen?
Your eyebrows are bad.
At that time, your eyebrows were about to connect.
Really.
Your eyebrows were probably connected.
That's right.
Didn't you wear glasses?
At the audition.
Did you wear glasses?
I don't remember at all.
Twintails and glasses?
That's right.
Your hair was that short?
It was really short.
It was long, wasn't it?
It was cut during the audition.
You did it on your own, didn't you?
I didn't say anything.
Now that I think about it, it's amazing, isn't it?
Actually, Sei-chan was the cause of the twintails.
That's right.
But...
You cut it on your own, didn't you?
You cut it on your own before the shoot, didn't you?
Yes, I cut it on my own.
It's amazing.
It's short.
By the way, my bangs were long at the time.
I had my bangs cut by a hairdresser just before the shoot.
That's amazing.
That's why my bangs are so long now.
It's kind of refreshing.
It's refreshing.
The hairdresser is still there now.
He's the hairdresser who cut my first bangs.
Is it Mr. M?
It's Mr. M.
I see.
It was like that that day.
You remember it well.
I remember it very well.
I remember it, too.
Let's move on to On-chan.
Next up is me.
You're so cute!
It's Mio.
It's On-chan.
It's Mio.
She has heavy bangs.
What is it?
Isn't it different?
It's different.
Ponytail.
She's a beginner in ponytail, so her eyes are a little raised.
That's right.
When you join AKB and you get used to it, when you do ponytail and you have your necktie tied up, you have to hold it like this.
You have to lower your eyes.
If you don't do that, you'll look like this.
But it's proof that you don't know it.
It's my first job, so...
I was taken away.
She was taken away.
And her lips are a little thick.
I didn't like it at the time, but I didn't know how to hide it.
But that's her personality.
Personality.
I feel like Mio-chan who doesn't decorate.
It's me before I knew all kinds of technology.
Next up is Megu.
You're so cute!
I miss you!
Our costumes are different, but...
That's right.
But you know...
You know...
You're chubby.
You're right.
But you're chubby.
Your cheeks are really chubby, aren't they?
Your cheeks are a little chubby.
You're right.
You're really chubby.
Your face is chubby.
It's like...
It's like you're so young.
I know.
It's like you have a lot of hair.
You have a lot of hair.
You had really long bangs when you were young.
It was diagonal.
- You've lost weight. - You're right.
- You've become such a beautiful lady. - No, I haven't!
- I'm surprised! - You've changed completely!
- You've become the most boyish. - That's right.
- You've changed a lot. - That's right.
- You were a boy inside. - That's right.
- But you've changed the most as a lady. - That's right.
- But you're still a boy inside. - I'm still a boy.
- You haven't changed at all. - You're still the same.
Yes, I am.
But when I auditioned, I was just like Sei-chan.
- Your hair was short. - Your hair was short!
- That's right! - That's right!
- It grew back. - It grew back.
My hair grew back when I auditioned.
- It was this long. - I see.
Here I am.
- Cute! - Cute!
- You haven't changed at all. - Cute!
- You have a good face shape. - Cute!
- You have big eyes and mouth. - You have big eyes and mouth.
- And you have a big chin. - But you have a small face.
- Cute! - Cute!
- You have a "the idol" look. - That's right.
When I first joined, I wanted to be like Mayu Watanabe.
I wanted to be "the idol".
Sei was originally a twin-tailed idol.
When I cut my hair and realized there were no twin-tailed idols,
the makeup artist who did my hair asked me if I wanted to be a twin-tailed idol.
I had a light hairstyle and I said "I want to be one!"
My outfit was also pink and I was so happy.
- You were cute. - You looked like Haruka.
I was so happy with this hairstyle.
- You look like an idol! - Cute!
- You look like an idol! - You haven't changed at all.
- You haven't changed at all.
- You have changed! - I'm jealous of you.
- You haven't changed. - Not everyone is black.
- I'm jealous of you. - You don't look black either.
I have eyeliner on my eyebrows.
- You don't look black either. - You have eyeliner on your eyebrows.
- Next is Kii. - Kii!
- You look cute! - You look like an idol!
- You look like an idol!
- Has she changed? - No, she hasn't.
- She hasn't changed at all. - She doesn't change at all.
When I was an auditionee, I had long bangs.
- Yes, you did. - You tied up your bangs, didn't you? - Yes, I did.
My bangs were long, but I cut them off.
- They're the same as Sei's. - Cute.
- I don't know if it's because I'm nervous, but my face doesn't look good. - That's right.
- I'm not good at smiling. - But you're really cute.
- Cute. - It's awkward, but I like it.
Is she in sixth grade?
- She's in middle school. - She just turned four years old. - Cute.
- She wore a randosel a little while ago. - Yes, a little while ago.
- You're amazing. - To be honest, she took it in April or something.
- Yes, it was in April. - She wore a randosel in April.
- Cute. - Cute. - You're cute. - You haven't changed at all.
- Lastly... - Ami-chan! - Ami-chan!
- Can you show us your mohawk? - It's a manual mohawk.
- Don't shake it. - Ami-chan! - Ami's mohawk.
- Ami-chan's mohawk. - Don't screenshot it!
Don't screenshot it!
- Don't screenshot it. - Ami-chan!
- Ami-chan's mohawk is the prettiest. - It's all red now.
- I think it's all red now. - Your eyebrows have changed.
- That's right. My eyebrows weren't that round. - That's true!
- Your eyebrows and... - Your eyebrows have changed after you cut them.
- That's right. - But...
When you look at it up close, you feel like it's changed.
- But when you look at it from behind, you feel like it's still you. - It hasn't changed at all.
- It hasn't changed a lot.
You feel like you're still you.
- But you've become more mature. - It's all red now.
- It's all red now.
- I'm shaking. - It's time for screenshots.
- It's the last screenshot. - The last screenshot.
- We've looked back at each of you. - Yes.
- Shall we move on to the next segment? - Let's do it.
- Manami-san, please. - Yes.
From now on, it's time for "Ichigo-chan's daily life video enlargement session"!
- Enlargement session! - Enlargement session!
- I've proposed this segment. - Oh!
You will all dig up scenes from 15 years ago that are still in camera roles.
- It sounds bad! - It's pretty bad.
- Scary. - So...
- I wanted you all to prepare your own scenes. - Yes.
- All of you prepared them. - Yes.
There were a lot of nostalgic videos from back in the day.
There really were.
Manami had a lot of videos that I don't remember.
Manami has a lot of videos.
Manami takes a lot of videos.
She takes a lot of videos and doesn't delete any photos.
She takes a lot of photos, so I think that's why she has a lot of videos.
That's scary.
That was scary.
I'd like to say something first.
What you see in my video is me and Komiharu.
From now on, I'd like you to think about what we're doing.
Please take a look.
Here you go.
Quiz?
What are we doing?
What do you mean by "never" again?
It's about time.
What is this video?
Am I in it?
No, you're not!
The one who stood up and whistled.
Me?
I thought it was Noina and Mizuki.
It's me!
What do you think they're doing?
I have no idea.
Checking the choreography?
What's that?
That's the music for Rikuawa's ranking.
Can you explain that?
What do you mean?
I don't know.
You can't express that song with words, can you?
That's true.
We kept saying "isn't it like this?"
That video.
Cute!
You can watch it again.
But you can't say it with words, can you?
That's stupid.
Only a few voices can be heard in that video.
You remember it well and you filmed it a lot.
There are a lot of videos like that.
There were a lot of members in the dressing room and we were sitting in the corridor.
I thought it was nostalgic and made it like that.
That's nostalgic.
It's been a year or two.
I have a video about Komi.
She celebrated my 20th birthday with me.
Is it okay?
It's okay.
It's cute.
I think it's about me, Yuna and Sayaya.
That's right.
I'm looking forward to it.
It's a recent video.
That's right.
Here you go.
What is it?
It's cute.
I sang a song at karaoke.
There are a lot of videos about Komi.
It's cute, so watch it.
It's cute!
What is it?
It's really cute.
What is it? It's cute.
What is it?
What did you do?
I found my favorite one-liners.
I sang the theme song of people going on a trip to the sea.
The last one.
English comments.
It was cute.
The song was cute, too.
It was a cute song.
What did you think of the comments?
Shall we look at the comments?
Earlier, Charachachan said, "It's like Matsuken Samba's prelude."
No way!
That's what it looked like.
Maybe it's what Haruka said.
That's all I can think of right now.
Do you really not remember me?
Don't you have any memories of your black hair?
Oh, I see.
Did you lose it?
As soon as you dyed your hair?
You look emotional and happy today.
I'm happy.
I'm going to get my memory back.
Do you have any other comments?
Kii-chan, do you have any comments you're curious about?
Wait a minute.
Kii-chan, you've been dropping comments for too long.
This is the second time.
Take good care of your own hair.
Everyone, you know...
The song you're singing...
Oh, yes! The song you're singing!
The one you just sang.
Yes, yes.
You're cute.
Next...
Who said it?
Do you have any comments?
You have a nice face.
Do you have any videos?
There are people who don't have videos in the first place.
Yes.
What's wrong with you two?
Huh?
Well...
At first, I thought people who had videos on their 15th line were brave.
Oh, I see.
Like, "If you want to release it, do it."
That's what I thought.
Then I asked my manager...
We were in Team A today.
When Team A started, he said, "Excuse me, but could you release a video?"
I said, "Everyone?"
He said, "Yes."
I thought, "Oh, I see."
But when I looked back, there wasn't a single video on the 15th line.
I'm really sorry about that.
Well, you got a new phone.
A new phone.
You too, Sei-chan.
I didn't take a lot of videos.
There weren't many good videos left.
And I was watching it on my previous phone.
I noticed it when I left home this afternoon.
I couldn't send it because I didn't have a phone.
I see.
You didn't blame me, did you?
Right?
She's blaming you, Sei-chan.
I'm sorry.
But...
You forgot about it, didn't you?
By the way...
You're in second place.
Huh?
Is it already the last one?
No, do you want the last one?
Do you want nothing at all?
Oh, you haven't decided the order yet.
Then, is there anyone who wants the last one?
No, I like mine.
Then, do you want mine?
No, I don't.
Then, Komi-chan, two in a row.
Komi-chan, two in a row?
Komi-chan?
Komi has a lot of videos, doesn't she?
I don't know which one will be played first.
Let's start with the first one.
Here you go.
It's all from far away.
It's an omegle.
Cute.
Potato chips are...
Huh?
Potato chips are...
Consomme flavor and...
Pizza potato.
Potato chips are...
Consomme flavor and...
Pizza potato.
Meg, you're cute!
Consomme flavor and...
Pizza potato.
It's long, isn't it?
Tomato soup is...
Ketchup and...
Consomme.
Tomato soup is...
Ketchup and...
Consomme.
She taught me the recipe.
Tomato juice is...
Huh?
Vegetables and...
Consomme.
Huh?
Tomato juice is...
Huh?
Vegetables and...
Consomme.
I'm stuck.
I was surprised.
Tomato juice is...
Vegetables and...
Consomme.
It's a mess.
At night...
Peanut bread...
At night...
Wait, wait!
At night...
Peanut bread...
It was long.
You like Tom, don't you?
You're kidding!
We played a game like "Easter party" together.
Earphones-gun-gun game was very popular at that time.
We played it every time we met.
I don't know what you're talking about.
My topic is difficult, too.
We talked about many things.
I can't believe it.
We talked about food.
But you said you like Yui and bread.
What?
Why do you look like that?
That was the first one.
Is there another one?
The second one is a little short.
I was told not to say it out loud.
Are you okay?
I'm afraid of myself.
I'll say it out loud.
It's a devil.
You're too busy.
I was told not to say it out loud.
I'm afraid of myself.
What was that?
Why do you look like that?
I don't know.
I was told not to say it out loud.
This one?
It's cute, isn't it?
It's the same as being mischievous for 10 years.
We're still children.
Then I'll go.
It's a song I love very much...
No, it's not a song, it's a video.
A video.
Nattara
It's fun!
Who won?
Me!
You won.
One more time.
Wait a minute!
I'm sorry for being so careless.
Can you tell what kind of game it is?
It's a game that comes out as soon as the phone rings.
It's a game where you have to press the controller as soon as possible.
Even though we've been playing it for 15 seasons and 10 years,
it would have been better if you had explained it to us before playing the video.
I'm sorry.
Besides, you filmed it in between, didn't you?
That's right.
Lastly, it's my video.
I'm also playing a game.
When "Ten Times Ten Games" was trending in the 15th century...
Please pay attention to Yumoto Ami.
Wait a minute.
It's very cute.
Here you go.
Shogi
Straight line
Writing
Shogi
So cute.
Isn't it too cute?
Pencil!
It's so cute!
Did you fix it?
Thank you!
It's so nostalgic!
Do you remember it?
Why do you have it?
I used to have it.
I often ate with Yakiniku-Iwa-san when I was 15 years old.
That's amazing!
It was a store called Uchida-wa-emi-san.
I used to play games there ten times.
That's amazing!
It was fun and nostalgic.
It made me feel nostalgic.
That's all for "Ichigo-chan's daily life video"!
Shall we move on to the next segment?
Tomi-chan, please!
We have an important announcement for you!
What is it?
It's like a quiz.
What do you think it is?
We haven't talked about it yet.
We have an important announcement for you!
The hurdle has been raised.
The hurdle has been raised a lot, but please lower it a little bit.
Everyone, we have an announcement for you!
Do you know what it is?
Is it a quiz?
Some of you may know about it.
AKB48 Nemo's TV Season 14, which is being broadcasted on the popular drama "Neoplas",
has held its 10th anniversary reunion party with Ichigo-chan!
Yeah!
For the first time, we also got to drink alcohol.
It's our first time seeing you drunk.
It was crazy.
Mio-chan?
Are you okay?
You're the worst Nemo I've ever seen.
It was cute.
For the first week...
Not at all.
It's okay.
It's cute for the first week.
For this week...
We have two weeks.
Everyone, please look forward to it.
I don't know.
Even though we haven't been told we have two weeks, we're talking about something.
Don't we have it?
It will be broadcasted from 19:30 to 20 on Thursday, June 8th!
Everyone, please watch it!
Please watch it!
The day after tomorrow.
Yes, and...
Next is...
Ami-chan...
Please show us the notice we wrote ourselves!
Yes!
One, two...
Ta-dah!
15th Anniversary 10th Anniversary Park!
Yay!
Thank you!
This date is currently being adjusted.
I'm really sorry about this.
I really wanted to say it, but due to various circumstances, we will announce it later.
Once it's decided, we will announce it.
I think we will definitely do it during the summer.
But the place is decided!
Yes! The place is...
Here! AKB48 Theater!
Yes! Please do so!
I'm happy!
The set list and such...
That's right!
It's been decided to some extent.
We talked about it with everyone.
Yes!
Please look forward to it!
Everyone, congratulations! There are a lot of messages coming in!
Thank you!
Congratulations!
It's rare, isn't it?
We all came up with the set list.
It's a set list or content that's limited to this 10th anniversary performance.
Everyone, please look forward to it!
Yes!
You're so good at promoting!
Right?
There's not much we can say about it yet.
That's right!
What do you think?
That's right.
But we're happy, aren't we?
Yes!
We've seen various seniors doing self-taught cats.
It's amazing that we're in that order!
It's amazing!
It's really moving!
That's right!
We're happy!
We're happy if we can see the nostalgic faces of people who knew us when we were students.
We're also looking forward to seeing the faces of fans now.
Please come and see us!
Thank you!
Let's move on to the next corner!
The next corner is "Me Ten Years Ago"!
June 5, 2013, a research student concert.
Everyone joined AKB48 with various dreams.
Since then, ten years, we are still active with AKB48.
I would like to say a message to myself at the time one by one!
Now, I would like to sing with the "kabesha" I had at the time!
First of all, I would like to start with Kii-chan!
Yes!
So cute!
Kii-chan, it's like a baby is talking to a baby!
That's right!
Baby-tan!
At the time, I was 12 years old and now I am 22 years old and will be 23 this year.
What was it like at the time?
Well, now, um, ten years ago, I was doing selfish collections at a research student concert.
Did it go well?
Yes!
Did you do it? I don't know if you did it.
I did it!
I was surprised at the size of the Budokan.
At the time, I was surprised that there were fans behind the stage.
I think it's hard for me to do it for the first time.
But I love concerts and theater performances.
At home, I brought clothes and practiced singing.
Right?
I did it, but let's get rid of it as soon as possible.
Let's do our best not to pull it out when we pull it out.
And, well, everyone here, too.
I think I've caused a lot of trouble when I was too young.
You're here to make me cry, aren't you?
Please grow up a little more!
Yes!
She's too young and too childish, and I think she only cares about what others are doing, so I want her to grow up a little more.
I don't think my sister will join AKB and work with me in 10 years, so I want to say that I can stand on the stage with Ai-chan in 10 years.
Thank you very much!
It's a corner where I cry a lot because of the song.
It's a famous song, it's a famous song.
Even if you know it, you still come, right?
There may be many people like this.
Then, next.
After Kin-chan's touching line, I'm a little embarrassed.
At that time, 10 years ago, I was still a temporary researcher and I wasn't used to AKB members, so I'm glad I got used to AKB.
Also, when I was a temporary researcher, I wanted to lose a little more weight and join AKB!
Right? I only ate sweets.
That's right.
But at that time, I was also doing lessons for temporary researchers in parallel with entrance exams, so I think I was really desperate.
Now I have become a beautiful adult!
That's right!
Yes!
I am living happily now!
Thank you very much!
Is it me today?
Yes, Sei-chan!
Yes, it's me 10 years ago!
I really didn't know anything.
I didn't know anything.
I didn't know how to dance, I didn't know how to sing.
I got lost in Jano Narko.
I couldn't change my clothes in Boku no Sakura.
But I think I really worked hard from there.
I couldn't change my clothes in Boku no Sakura.
I wore a lot of clothes at home and practiced changing clothes.
What were you doing?
I couldn't memorize the choreography.
I asked Manami-chan to teach me.
Even if you don't know it, I think it's important to keep trying.
I don't want you to give up and work hard.
It's okay! It'll be fine!
It's fine!
Right?
I will continue to work hard without forgetting you. Thank you!
That's cute!
That's a good story!
That's cute!
That's a good story!
That's it.
That's great. You've really grown up.
You've grown up.
Then I'll go.
Yes, I'm a simple girl like this, but I was chosen for a successor audition of Itano-san.
It's nostalgic.
I did it.
Also, I did a unit with Yoko Oshima-san, who I admire, in the theater alone.
I got 16th place in the rock-paper-scissors competition and sang my brother's song.
I got second place and made my unit debut.
Unexpectedly, I was lucky.
It's amazing.
It's true.
I hadn't joined yet.
So I want to say, "Why don't you cut your bangs now that you're lucky?"
That's true.
Do you have anything to say about it?
I was often told, "You've grown up since you cut your bangs."
It's not perfect, but I think it would have been better if you changed your appearance when you were in a good mood.
That's what I want to say.
Yes.
Like this.
It's a cute ranking that members choose now.
That's right.
It's always like that.
Thank you.
Ranking.
Yes.
Like this.
Please do it quickly.
Then, Komi-chan.
Yes.
At that time, I really wanted to do my best as an idol.
I practiced every day until the morning.
There is a choreography where I pat Shio who I kissed and lost.
I practiced too much and got bruises.
I didn't know how to practice, so I did it in slow motion and did it very slowly.
But my mom was watching me from behind without sleeping.
Sometimes I think I was enjoying myself because I was doing my best in everything.
But at that time, I was looking forward to playing games with the 15th generation and having fun with the 15th generation.
I'm stubborn and sometimes I suggest a lot of my opinions to everyone.
I think it was easy for me to clash with everyone, but I was able to spend 10 years with everyone because of the 15th generation, so please be grateful for the 15th generation.
And at that time, I could only do my best as an idol, but I want to tell you that I'm in charge of the captain, I've experienced pro wrestling, and I'm doing my best in various things with AKB.
Great!
OK, it's your turn, On-chan.
Well, until just now, I was just an AKB otaku who went to theaters and handshakes.
So AKB was something I admired from the screen, and I was able to join it miraculously.
Even now, I feel like I had a lot of feelings like a fan.
At that time, I definitely tried not to say it, but when I met the members behind the scenes, they were like "kya!"
I was thinking like that!
I'm happy!
I used to love AKB that much, and it hasn't changed now, but I don't think I've ever thought that I'd be the general director of AKB that I love so much.
I think I'll be able to overcome that self- awareness as a member and do my best for ten years, so I'm confident.
Maybe I haven't been confident since then, but I want you to be confident and do your best more proudly.
I want to continue to work hard without forgetting my feelings as a fan and as a member of AKB, so I hope you'll support me!
That's wonderful!
Thank you! That's all!
Sou-chan! Sou-chan! Sou-chan!
Okay, last one!
It was the last one!
To myself 10 years ago!
10 years ago, I was 13 years old.
I lived my life full of AKB.
Even now, 10 years later, I still live my life full of AKB.
How should I say it?
You do!
I do!
You do!
I do!
And...
I joined AKB and auditioned.
I've never regretted auditioning.
A few days ago, I was told to memorize it in 3 days.
I was told to memorize it in 3 days for a few months.
I had a lot of problems.
But after overcoming them, my feelings for the theater changed.
Now, I'm able to appear on "Pinch Hitter" in one day.
It was really hard back then, but please do your best!
I don't know why I'm so excited.
And...
I've never regretted auditioning.
Thank you for accepting my audition 10 years ago and joining AKB48!
I, Manami Ichikawa, will graduate from AKB48 this time!
I'm sorry, but could you give me a little bit of your time?
If you'll excuse me.
I'm sorry for doing things like watering down at a fun time like this, but could you give me a little bit of your time?
I became aware of my graduation about two years ago, in 2021.
When my friends around me finished their jobs in their fourth year of college,
I thought about what I should do next.
And it turned out that the 13th generation will have a 10th anniversary performance.
So I decided to do my best and continue my 10th anniversary performance until my 10th anniversary.
I'm sorry, but I'm going to look at the screen for a moment.
AKB's activities were not always fun.
I was doing my best, but I didn't have any proof or history of my name in AKB.
So I thought about what I could do for a year and a half until I quit.
And when I thought about what I should do to leave my name in AKB,
I set my goal of winning first place in all theater performances in 2022.
Since then, I've been remembering my position as a dead man.
Sometimes I stand in the park for more than a week every day.
I think I did my best and achieved my goal and finally left my name in AKB.
The first year and a half after I graduated was like a downpour.
I said what I wanted to say, did what I wanted to do and didn't do what I didn't want to do.
I did what I wanted to do and it was a fun year and a half from the bottom of my heart.
My graduation day is August 26th and I'm graduating with my graduation performance on August 31st.
That's about it.
I would be happy if you could watch me singing and dancing and performing at the theater until the end.
That's all. I'm sorry for taking up your time.
Yes.
I'm lonely.
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
Please wait for a moment.
I felt refreshed.
I've been holding back my feelings for a year and a half and I finally said it.
I felt like the day had finally come and I felt refreshed.
It's been a while since I've seen Manami cry.
She doesn't usually cry.
She doesn't say anything serious.
She's always joking around.
But she's thinking about a lot of things seriously now.
When Manami announced her graduation...
That's what it feels like.
I've been so nervous since this morning.
I thought I'd break if I didn't talk to anyone.
I called a lot of friends.
I thought I'd get used to it by the time I got my spirit back.
But my voice was shaking and I got really nervous.
But I've been active for 10 years and I'm serious about it.
That's why I had the courage to jump out of here.
But it's cool.
I think it's amazing that I was able to leave my own name.
It's not about the first few years.
It's about doing it for about 9 years and then setting goals.
Isn't it hard to achieve that?
It's not.
Isn't it amazing?
Really.
What is it?
You look like you're about to cry.
I'm not crying anymore.
If I were older, I wouldn't be able to do that.
I thought it was amazing.
I treasure the theater.
Among the 15th generation, I'm really kind.
I may look like this, but I'm really kind.
I tried not to hurt anyone.
There were times when we were in conflict with each other.
But you made us feel at peace.
You taught me all of that.
I want to say thank you.
I'm glad we were able to do it together.
I'm glad we were able to make it to the graduation announcement.
I'm happy.
I'm the only one who's talking.
But Manami is...
I'm about to cry.
You'll cry if you talk.
When I was a year late and joined the research institute,
I was like, "I'm a year late, so I'm going to end up like my seniors and juniors."
I can't help it.
But Manami was the first one to say yes.
When I auditioned, I was in a group that was close to Manami.
Since I joined the research institute, I've been with Team A since I graduated.
Manami taught me how to dance and practiced with me.
Recently, when I went out to my response park and made mistakes, I became a senior member.
There's no one to warn me.
Manami is the only one...
No one will warn you anymore.
No one will forgive you if you make mistakes.
No one will warn me.
No one will forgive you if you make mistakes.
No one will warn you if you make mistakes.
I don't know how I'm going to spend my time without Manami.
Please stand up and work hard.
No one will warn me.
I'll go to the park regularly.
Don't make mistakes.
Thank you.
We haven't graduated at the same time recently.
Yeah, it's been a long time.
We've been working together for a long time.
We've been graduating together for 12 years.
It's natural for us to have these seven people.
We think that we are youth.
We think that youth doesn't last.
It's the same time as us.
It's the same time as our fans.
We have to cherish these moments.
I was deeply moved.
Thank you.
My memories with Manami have become too long and I have too much to say.
I can't organize my thoughts.
But I'm so happy that the seven of us can celebrate our 15th anniversary.
I'm so happy that Manami stayed until our 10th anniversary.
Thank you.
Thank you for your gratitude.
Thank you.
We're going to have our 10th anniversary performance.
We'll do our best.
Please.
Let's make memories for Manami.
That's all for today.
Sei-chan, please summarize it well.
That's all for me 10 years ago.
We talked about it.
We forgot about it.
It's getting late.
It's time to say goodbye.
It was fun.
Ami-chan, please announce it.
We're going to have our 10th anniversary performance.
Please look forward to it.
Please.
"nemos" will be broadcasted on TV in the morning.
Wednesday.
Please watch it.
It's going to be fun.
I'm happy that we're going to have a show just with trees.
Let's make a lot of memories this summer.
Thank you for watching our 10th anniversary performance.
Thank you.
Bye-bye!
