A.K.A.「b48」and Team「k」Itano and Momi.
Yeah.
Through this interview, it became a sudden announcement, but I, Itano Tomomi, will graduate from AKB48.
In this documentary interview, I talked about last year's AKB48, the scandal among the members, AKB48 in the future, and my graduation last year.
In that interview, my feelings for graduation became stronger and I announced it in this way.
There is little time left, but I would like to make a lot of memories with the members and fans and do my best for the rest of the time. Thank you all.
Minami Takahashi, Mayu Watanabe, Mariko Shinoda, Haruna Kojima, Arie Kitahara, Yui Yokoyama, Haruka Shimazaki, Anna Iriyama, Irina Kawaii, Rena Kato, Ayaka Kikuchi, and the director of this film, Eiki Takahashi! Thank you all for coming!
Good evening, everyone. I'm Ekebi Forteto.
Yes, we were really surprised, too.
We've been working together for a long time, so it's honestly lonely.
Last year, Atsuko graduated and I thought, "Ah, this year it's Tomochin."
But it's the path she chose, so it's up to me to make the final decision.
If she says she'll walk forward, I'd like to push her back.
We'll continue to grow as a group. Thank you.
Yes, we've been together since the beginning, so it's lonely to graduate.
I've been with you since the beginning, so I sometimes think about graduating.
It takes a lot of courage, and I think it's really cool of you to make that decision now.
As a teammate who's worked hard with you, I'd like to continue to support you.
Thank you, meow meow.
She's said that many times.
It's late, it's early, and I realized that day would come.
I think the members knew that day would come.
It's lonely.
But for us who were left behind, Tomochin and Atsuko too.
They all went ahead of us.
We, AKB, have to do our best as a group.
Watching this movie made me happy and sad at the same time.
There were many goodbyes.
But when I see everyone walking forward, I feel like I can't lose, so I want to walk forward firmly as Echevi48 and me as SK48 in 2013 as well.
Thank you very much.
Unlike before, I belong to a new team and I can work with many first-generation seniors, so I want to spend a year that I can be a completely different me from before.
Thank you very much.
There are many tears in this movie, but when I look back at my feelings at the time and afterwards, I think that even I and the other members can perceive it in a different way.
I think I was able to grow a little by watching this movie.
Thank you very much.
It was the biggest thing for Team 4 to be disbanded.
It's strange to say that Team 4 was disbanded because of Team 4, but it became Team A and I can interact with a lot of seniors.
It's really close and I'm learning a lot of things that I have to learn from my seniors in Team A, so I'd like to continue to grow what I've learned.
As Mr. Itano just announced his graduation, I want to be a person who can leave everything to others with confidence.
Last year there were a lot of things. As everyone said, it was the same for Team 4, but we became a new Team B and learned a lot.
As more and more people graduate, we realized that young people have to work hard.
Once again, I brought my strongest, so I would like to continue to work hard with the intention of leaving my seniors.
As an individual, I think it was a year when I was able to step up in many ways.
I realized again that last year was a year of various things.
Last year, I started to think about the group in particular.
In order for AKB48 to grow even more in the future, there are more and more juniors these days.
With those members, I would like each of us to think about the group properly and work together.
I don't think this movie uses scandals in particular.
I think it is depicted through various events what kind of path you choose and proceed in certain places.
It is very important to choose such a path with courage.
I wanted to talk about this beautiful thing in the film.
These days, it is difficult for us women in Japan or in the world to live in such a situation.
In such a situation, individuals and societies have to face each other.
Through this film, I hope you can see how the members here faced each other and worked together with courage.
I hope it will be a great reference for us in the future.
I would like you to watch my last presentation of this film.
No matter what I say about this film, I hope you will cry a lot through this film because you were worried about it and supported by the fans.
Let's look at the future together with tears.
I don't have a graduation date yet, but I will report it when it comes out.
I hope we can enjoy the rest of our time together.
I will do my best as a first-generation student.
Minami Takahashi, please.
Thank you all for coming today.
I am very happy that the third documentary film will be released today.
No matter how happy or sad a day is, there is always an end and a day to welcome the next morning.
No matter how many tears you shed, if there is something you can gain from it, I hope you will continue to look ahead and do your best.
Those of you who are interested in this movie, even those of you who are not interested in it, I hope you will watch it once.
Thank you very much for today.
Thank you very much!
With that, the stage greetings will end.
Please give the members a big round of applause!
