AKB48 selection and election pick up members.
"I'm a piece of shit" AKB48 Haruka Shimazaki.
She has been extremely popular with girls and is expected to be the next ace candidate as a post- maedersco.
I tried an interview with her.
What kind of wife were you when you were young?
When I was little, I was a crybaby and couldn't stay away from my mom.
When I was in 4th grade, I couldn't stay at home alone.
You cried.
Yes.
What made you want to go for an audition?
My classmate invited me.
I think it was summer vacation.
I thought it would be good for making memories, so I tried it.
When?
When I was in 1st grade of high school.
Did you ask your parents?
I did.
They wouldn't accept me, so I tried it.
What did you think when you were accepted?
I didn't expect it.
What did you think when you were accepted?
I like Morning Musume-san.
She is a cute idol.
How was it?
It was hard.
For what?
For now, dancing.
But you are dancing well now.
I still struggle sometimes.
Did you do it at home when you didn't have time to memorize?
When I can't do it at home, I do it at home.
She doesn't talk much.
But little by little, she starts to talk about her true feelings.
Do you hate losing?
I don't hate losing.
If I can't do what I can't do, I give up.
But I'm the type of person who says what I want to say.
I say it in a press conference or something.
She talks about her feelings hidden in her speech at last year's general election.
She's had a lot of opportunities and has been supported by a lot of people.
That's why she's standing here today.
Hmm...
I love AKB48! Thank you very much!
Last year's speech, were there any words that came out of nowhere?
Well...
I said it because I thought people wouldn't understand me even though I like them.
Do you hate AKB?
I don't hate them, but I don't think they feel that way.
She expressed her frustrations, and told us about her feelings.
But I don't want to say that I'm trying my best.
Why not?
Because I'm an idol, and I don't think I should say that.
She doesn't act like an idol.
If you think of her like that, I don't mind.
Do you like AKB?
Yeah...
Yes.
