AISubs v3.7
Hello everyone! We are akb48!
Ten years have passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred on March 11, 2011.
At 14:46 when the earthquake occurred, I would like to dedicate a minute's silence to the members of akb48.
Ever since the earthquake occurred, we akb48 have been doing reconstruction support activities as a project for someone.
I would like to look back on those ten years of activities in front of the wooden tower.
Thank you for your time.
Well, would you like to sit down for a moment? Excuse me.
Excuse me.
First of all, Ms. Minami Minegishi, who has been doing earthquake support activities as one of akb48 members.
How do you look back on these ten years?
Well, I've been to a lot of places, I've seen a lot of scenery and I've seen a lot of people's smiles.
At that time, I was very burned out in my heart.
My heart moves and I have a lot of things to think about, but after all, as time goes by, little by little, that memory becomes vague and I think it's very frustrating, so I'm very grateful for the opportunity to look back together like today and think about it again, and I would like to spend today with gratitude for the people I have met so far and the people I will meet in the future.
Thank you very much. And YOKOYAMA YUI, following MINEGISHI, you have been involved in disaster support activities 17 times in the past, but do you have any impressions left?
Well, I have a lot of impressions left, but when I was performing a live performance in one of the disaster visit activities, I was performing an AKB48 song called "God's Airplane" on 365 days.
There was an old woman and an eye in front of me, and when I saw the old woman shedding tears, I always sang and danced like this and delivered the song with the feeling of delivering energy, but it was the first time I felt a moment where my heart could connect through the lyrics of the song, so I thought that we could convey some message through the song, and I think that's why I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be involved in disaster support activities 17 times in the past, but when I was performing an AKB48 song on 365 days, I was performing an AKB48 song on 365 days, and I think that's why I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be involved in disaster support activities 17 times in the past, and I think that's why I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be involved in disaster support activities 17 times in the past, and I think that's why I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be involved in disaster support activities 17 times in the past, and
I felt the power of the song, so I felt the power of the song, and I remember that scene.
Do you remember? It was impressive, but I was very happy to hear you shed tears and listen to you.
Now, Nana Okada has joined AKB48 in 2012 after the disaster and has done nine disaster support activities in the past.
I'm grateful for that, and I've been there nine times, and no matter what city I go to, they welcome us very warmly and enjoy our live performances.
Of course, there are adults who come and say thank you directly when they can still do high-touch, and of course, there are young children who write messages of support or write honest feelings when they are damaged and give them to us.
I'm glad you said that because it's really warm, so I haven't been able to go now, but I hope I can go see you again.
I definitely want to go.
Now, we have created an hour-long video of our "For Someone" project and its 10-year activity.
We have done our best to do what we can as idols who can go see you, for someone and for the future.
Please see the pattern during your trip to Mokuto.
In 2013, on March 11th, AKB48 visited the disaster area in Northeast Japan for the first time.
Even that day, and even now, the sky was blue.
On March 11th, 2011, a huge earthquake struck Japan.
The Great East Japan Earthquake.
All over the country, various activities began to support the disaster-stricken Northeast Japan.
AKB48 also launched projects for others and started charity events and fundraising activities.
And as an idol group could do, we visited the disaster- stricken area in person and decided to hold live concerts and events there.
To bring back the smiles of children.
AKB48's first visit was in May 2011, two months after the earthquake.
When we saw that city, which took us six hours to get from Tokyo, we lost our words.
We first visited Otsuchi-cho in Iwate Prefecture and Yamada-machi.
Two hundred people spent their evacuation life there.
I'm going.
Hello everyone!
We are AKB48!
Heavy Rotation!
In my head, my heart is pounding.
Music - Heavy Rotation!
Thank you!
Thank you for coming to the live show!
I'm sorry, everyone!
Thank you!
In between the live show, we visited an evacuation center.
Yamada High School, which was located in a high- rise building in the city, was an evacuation center for local people.
Hello, everyone!
Hello!
I'm sorry, everyone!
Thank you!
Thank you very much!
I'm glad I could come here today.
At first, I was really worried, but the moment I went out and saw everyone's faces, it was gone.
Everyone welcomed me warmly.
"Please come again," I said, "so I'd like to come again."
I'm glad.
My second visit was to Iwate Prefecture Miyako City, Taro District.
It was June 11th, three months after the quake.
At 2:46 p.m., a siren sounded in the city.
Wooden sword.
Thank you very much!
You gave me a wooden sword!
Cute!
Thank you!
Oh, cute!
Let's hold it and say goodbye together.
Thank you very much, everyone.
Oh, thank you!
Thank you!
Oh, thank you!
I'm happy!
I'm sorry, but I'd like you to shake hands with everyone as much as you can, so I'd like you to help me with one handshake.
As an adult, you can't see a lot of people's eyes and things like that, but as a little girl, I was very happy to be reflected in my actions without thinking about anything.
I didn't have such an experience, so I got flowers from under the stage and it made me feel very warm and I'd like to take it home.
I'd like the sun to come closer to me.
At that time, the only Northeastern from akb48, Sayaka Nakaya also participated in the visit.
Hello, thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
You encouraged me!
Thank you very much!
Thank you!
Please come again!
Thank you very much!
Nakaya! Nakaya!
Nakaya!
Thank you!
AKB48 decided to visit the north and south every month, and they visited Miyagi Prefecture in July for the third time.
Hello. We're AKB48.
Nice to meet you.
We're from Tokyo.
She's a cute girl.
They use stage trucks for their live performances, and they bring in electricity, water and food themselves.
They decided to continue their activities by borrowing locations only.
Back then, they performed with T-shirts and jeans, not stage costumes.
They smile back at you when you're down, and that cheers me up as well.
I hope I can be of help to you in any way I can.
There was still a ship left in Kesennuma City, which they visited for the fifth time.
"It's cool!" "Thank you!" "Cool!" "Thank you!"
"Thank you for coming all the way to Kesennuma City." "Thank you!" "Thank you!" "Thank you!" "Thank you!" "Thank you!"
"I missed you!" "I missed you!" "I missed you!" "Yeah!"
It's cool!
The seventh time they visited was in Iwate Prefecture's Rikusentakata City.
A tsunami struck the coastline and beautiful pine trees were wiped out.
Among them, only one large pine tree remained in its form.
It's a miracle pine tree.
Among the members who participated at this time, there were researchers who had just joined akb48.
Iwata Karen from Sendai City.
He was a member who lived in an evacuation center for a while due to a disaster at home.
In December 2011, I visited Fukushima Prefecture for the first time - Minami-souma City.
It is a 30 km long gymnasium from Fukushima First Nuclear Power Plant.
This day is Christmas.
The members also appear in Santa costumes.
Merry Christmas!
We sang Christmas songs and gave presents to children and had a good time.
At this time, the subway in the area was not completed and children could not play outside.
I was happy to see them smile even a little.
In March 2012, we visited Natori City in Miyagi Prefecture for the eleventh time.
It is located south of Sendai City and has a Sendai Airport.
Before joining AKB48, Iwata Karen from Sendai City went to Natori's dance school and learned singing and dancing.
Wow! Thank you very much!
Good luck!
Good luck! Thank you very much!
After the live performance at Kasetsu Zyutaku Square, a woman came and talked to the members.
Could you pray for me?
She was a mother who lost her son in the tsunami.
"Let's go," said Tomomi.
Thank you for coming.
It's really small in here. I'm really sorry about that.
I love AKB48. Thank you very much.
I'm glad.
I'm sorry for living in such a small place.
What's your son's name?
His name is Kouta.
I'm sorry. I took a picture of you.
I didn't know such a thing existed.
His son loved AKB and always sang with them.
That's what his mother told us.
Thank you very much.
No problem. Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
My mother said the same thing.
Thank you very much.
June 9, 2012.
The day came for the general election of Iwate Prefecture, Ofunato City, and AKB48.
The popularity of Oshima Yuko, who won first place in the general election, matched.
Despite the rain, 3,000 people gathered in the square of the temporary shopping district.
Hello, professionals!
It's been a year since the quake.
Until now, concerts were held in T-shirts and jeans,
but since then, it's been a stage show.
[Please look forward to the next stage show too!]
The 17th visit is to Tanohata Village in Iwate Prefecture.
It is a place that takes more than 6 hours from Tokyo by one way.
Tanohata Village, Fudai Village, Noda Village, and the joint live of the three villages in the coast area.
Many people came to the outdoor square that became the venue.
It was a hot day, but it was a fun stage like a summer festival.
During the winter disaster area live, they used a gymnasium and a public house,
but on this day, they put a stage truck in a wide market and used it as a stage.
It is a live with a Christmas costume that became a tradition in December.
Miyagi Prefecture, Shichigahama Town.
Even two years after the quake,
the roadside trees were high with debris and debris of disasters piled up.
This kind of scene was seen everywhere in the northeast.
Well, I heard you're having an anniversary ceremony today.
Are you celebrating your anniversary?
Congratulations!
Two years after the quake, on March 11, 2013,
AKB48 visited the northeast for the first time on the day of the quake.
In Iwate, Miyagi, and Fukushima, they held three towns and ten places and held a live at the same time.
It's our second year, so let's do our best!
Let's do our best to smile a lot!
Let's do it!
Hello Iwaki city!
Hello Kamaishi city!
We are AKB48!
It's getting late, music, let me in on the show
Thank you so much for coming today!
Thank you!
I can't believe what happened to those kids.
They were so stiff and couldn't jump or raise their hands.
Many of those kids' homes were swept away.
Many of my relatives and family lost their kids.
I can't read or write anymore.
There are a lot of kids at the Kasaji Children's Academy in Asumai right now,
but it's all gone now.
It's all thanks to you.
Please continue.
Thank you.
Thank you!
I'm glad there are stars.
I feel like I'm looking at the stars.
This day I visited Miyako Station of Sanriku Railway in Miyako City, Iwate Prefecture.
Miyako was planned to go to Kuji for the first time.
But due to the quake, it didn't happen.
Miyako City was closed until August 16th.
The station's buildings and tracks were hit by the tsunami.
Railways and roads are indispensable for reconstruction.
Miyagi Prefecture Matsushima Town's Olympia Matsushima Aquarium.
It's the second oldest aquarium in Japan.
But after the tsunami, business resumed.
According to the penguin they're raising, they visit with their song "Run, Penguin!" from AKB48.
Kuji City, Iwate Prefecture.
It's famous for being the model of Asadora "Ama- chan", Ama-san.
The members also transformed into Ama-chan.
"Ama-chan"?
"Koisuru Fortune Cookie" performed at this day's concert was released a month before the single.
Children are still dancing awkwardly, but it's becoming a popular song at the disaster area concert.
Yamada Town in Iwate Prefecture.
This is the first town to be affected by a disaster area visit.
The children of this town came up with the idea of creating a diorama of Yamada Town in the future.
It's a diorama created in collaboration with akb48.
The festival, which was canceled after the disaster, is back and there is a concert on that stage.
Matsumura Kaori of ske48 is popular in Yamada Town.
Matsumura Kaori gave the girls who were trapped in the disaster area a chance to get back on their feet.
As a result of Matsumura Kaori's support for Yamada Town as a whole, Matsumura Kaori will later be appointed as a tourist ambassador.
Kesennuma Bay in Miyagi Prefecture.
If you don't take a ferry from Kesennuma Port, you can't go to the mainland.
This bay was badly damaged by the tsunami and the fires of Kesennuma Bay after that.
This is also where the friendly operation by the U.S. military took place.
Climbing a mountain burned by fire, eating a cherry tree on a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean, this cherry tree is called "ten-year-old cherry."
ten-year-old cherry.
Oh, my God!
On March 11, 2014, three years after the quake, I visited more than 40 members of the Tohoku region.
Hello everyone in Miyako city.
Let's go!
I missed you, I missed you, I missed you, yes, you
I love you, but at the end of the day, let me be cool
You say it quietly, but it's too late
Come on, come on, come on, go away
I love you, but at the end of the day, let me be cool
You say it quietly, but it's too late
Here is the music video.
What will happen in this music video?
A cafe run by a local high school student volunteers in Miyagi Prefecture, Ishinomaki City Hall.
AKB48 also helps out.
What's that?
What else?
Do you want to roll it?
Do you want your mama to roll it for you?
You can just join AKB because you're cute.
What are you doing?
You can just join AKB because you're cute.
Do you want to join AKB?
Do you want your mama to roll it for you?
You're so cute!
At that time, Ishinomaki City had the largest hypothesis housing complex in Japan.
There were 1,156 houses and more than 3,000 people.
When I visited Ishinomaki City Hall last time,
I was asked by a fan who lives here to come visit this hypothesis housing complex.
It was my first visit, and a lot of people welcomed me with a smile.
It wasn't just me who smiled, but everyone's smiles made me smile too.
It was a lot of fun. I'd like to come back again.
The 43rd time, I visited Yamamoto Town in Miyagi Prefecture.
One of the towns that suffered heavy damage from the tsunami, and roads were blocked.
A part of Joban Autonomous Road has been opened, and an interchange has been completed in this area as well.
From the next day, the highway where cars run will be painted red and celebrated with local children.
Joban Autonomous Road is a residential area in Joban Prefecture.
I'm tired.
It was fun.
In the affected towns, disaster FM was broadcasted everywhere, and it became an important source of information for locals.
We are AKB48!
It was really fun.
It was fun.
Not only did we feel the joy of being saved, but we also had the precious experience of walking on the highway.
It's rare.
I heard it was 2km, but I didn't think it would be 4km.
But it was so fun to walk with the candidates that I forgot about it and felt it short.
After the radio performance, we visited a local kindergarten.
Shall we sing and dance together?
After the live show, the children sang a song that they practiced hard to give as a gift to AKB's older sister.
The 46th time I visited was in Hichigahama Town, Miyagi Prefecture.
That day, I participated for the first time in a live show of AKB48's "visit live" when I was a junior high school student and decided to take an audition.
I was living in an evacuation center in junior high school because of the tsunami disaster, and I was very happy when everyone from AKB48 came to visit me.
When I saw everyone's sparkling stage, I was able to forget really painful things.
And today, I'm standing as one of AKB48, and I'll do my best to send you a lot of energy with gratitude in my heart. Thank you.
The girl who was watching the live show in the disaster area became an idol who stood on the stage and made people happy.
March 11, 2015.
Four years after the disaster, 48 members visited six places in Iwate, Miyagi, and Fukushima.
Nice to meet you. What can I do for you?
I don't know you, but I'll give you a ride.
Thank you very much.
What do you call it?
Cotton.
I feel like I'm in Chichigahama.
Look, look.
Say it, say it.
Say it like this.
If an AKB girl comes up to you, say it.
I think it's a different direction.
Baku-chan, do you have a favorite member?
Yes.
Who?
Akarin!
Thank you!
I'm happy!
I did it!
I'm happy!
This day, the performance was held at four theaters of the national akb48 group in four places at the same time.
At the end, he tied up all places and sang what his palms spoke.
Thank you very much.
I've always been a fan of you. I'm glad to meet you.
Take care of yourself.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
You've given me a lot of strength.
I'll walk with my head up.
Thank you very much.
For the 48th time, she visited Futaba Mirai Gakuen High School, which was built after the middle school and high school of Hirono Town, Fukushima Prefecture.
Ms. Kayano Shinobu designed the uniforms of this new school and the costumes of AKB48.
The students decided on the colors of Futaba Mirai Gakuen High School and the costumes of AKB48.
You're great.
I'm glad that I was able to help make the school's future.
JR Ishinomaki Line, which connects Miyagi Prefecture Ishinomaki and Onagawa Prefecture, was hit by a quake and lost all lines.
Four years later, in March 2015, it was finally restored.
To celebrate it, they held a live performance in front of Onagawa Station in the new area.
Hello, everyone in Onagawa Town! We are AKB48!
Thank you!
The tsunami-stricken station moved inland.
In addition, by raising the ground level by 7 meters, it became a strong structure for disasters.
The 52nd visit was to Kesennuma Oshima in Miyagi Prefecture for the third time.
The 10-year-old cherry blossoms that bloomed at that time were growing safely.
It's like an island!
Wow!
It's growing so much!
That's great!
And, the girls she met at Perry at her first visit, have grown and come to watch our show again.
Look at her. Look at me. It's me. Look at me. It's me. It's me. Look at me. It's me. Look at me. It's me. It's me. Look at me. Look at me. Look at me.
In Yamamoto Town, Miyagi Prefecture, there is a miraculous elementary school.
It is Nakahama Elementary School, which is located in the Pacific Ocean.
On that day, a tsunami that covered this school up to the second floor pushed it in.
At that time, the school was evacuated by 90 people including teachers, teachers, and people in the district.
When the tsunami struck, everyone evacuated to the rooftop and it was saved.
This is not a rooftop or a rooftop, but a attic.
I went up from the elementary school entrance and went up to the second floor below.
As usual, when people come in from outside, they change shoes.
That kind of habit is still there.
But now is the time to hurry up.
Some people rushed out and came back naked.
That's how desperate they were.
This Nakahama Elementary School has been preserved as a disaster shelter to convey the fear of a tsunami and is also publicized in general.
In March 2016, five years after the quake, Nakahama Elementary School held a large-scale live performance inviting children and their families from the affected areas.
In the lobby of the Iwate Prefectural People's Assembly building, an exhibition of the geography of Yamada Town was also held.
We, the AKB48 group, thought that we had nothing we couldn't do, so we visited the north and south every month and continued our live activities.
I hope you will be encouraged by the opportunity for further reconstruction.
Now it's time for the live performance.
I'm running now that I can't catch it with my feet.
Even if I try to spread my fingers wide, something will overflow.
Don't look at me like that anymore.
I won't let you do that.
In Iwate Prefecture's Ohfuna City, there is also a miraculous elementary school - Okirai Elementary School.
Hello!
One, two...
We are AKB48!
After being struck by a tsunami that reached the third floor of the school building,
although the school was fully open, everyone was able to escape the tsunami.
Five years after the tsunami, the long-awaited new school building moved up to the second floor and was completed.
After the live show, the children sang "kouka" for us in return.
"kouka" and "kouka" and "kouka" and...
March 2017, six years after the Great East Japan Earthquake, she visited three places in the northeastern region of Japan.
The footprints of the typhoon from the previous year still remain.

- Thank you! - Good luck!
A seven-year-old boy spoke to me when we were taking pictures.
His little brother is in kindergarten.
The kindergarten he went to was swept away in the earthquake and is gone now.
He's going to a different kindergarten now, but they're both working hard.
It was a very solid boy who taught me.
And at the end of the delivery, he said, "AKB is always rooting for you."
A seven-year-old boy told me that.
I'm glad I was able to do a live show today, thinking that these children will work hard for Fukushima and various places in the north.
- Thank you! - Good luck!
The 64th visit is to the south mountain range of Miyagi Prefecture. This is where we visited for the third time in July 2011.
- Sansan Shopping District! - Yay!
Once the land hit by the tsunami was cleared, a new shopping district was built there.
Sansan Shopping District is a symbol of reconstruction.
Next May 2018, she visits Sansan Shopping District again.
On this day, members who are involved in disaster relief activities have gathered.
Last year, I was going to visit Sansan Shopping District in Yamanami City, but I came here by car from Saitama.
Every year I come here by car, so I couldn't think about the traffic on my way back.
But I'm very happy to be able to come here today.
She tries the famous soft cream with Miyagi-san's tomato in it.
Here it is, like a night scoop.
Sansan Shopping District is a symbol of reconstruction.
Next to it is a building that has been left as a disaster shelter so that disasters and tsunamis will not be forgotten.
Thank you.
This year, eight years after the earthquake, I visited Ootsuchi Town, Iwate Prefecture, where I had my first visit live.
The town that was buried in the mountains of rubble at that time was recovering in the past eight years.
Even so, no matter how many times I reach out this palm of mine,
I will gently collect the sand of the future in front of me.
Thank you very much!
Even if my heart is painful and painful and painful
Even if I give up
I will love you again
I hope you feel
Before we set off for the day, the staff gave us an explanation.
The front line opened and the railroad was connected. Congratulations!
I'm sure Uncle Kasai will come to see you in the evening.
I'm sure Yuri will come to see you in Murayama.
Uncle Kasai in the evening is a man who has lost his wife, children and grandchildren,
and a man who has lost hope of living is in this city alone.
Just yesterday or something like that, Uncle Kasai, who had hope of living by looking at his wife,
is now Yuri, the hope of life.
I don't think Yuri has been to Murayama yet,
but there is a man who has lost his house and is pregnant with a single mother,
and when he came to Murayama for the first time in a while, he saw Murayama and thought, "Oh, I like this girl,"
and he named his daughter Yuri.
On this day, the Sanriku Railway Liass Line 163km opened its front line.
The reconstruction work, which took eight years to complete, has finally come to fruition,
and a commemorative live performance was held at Yamada Station in Sanriku District.
Members, please wait for a moment!
Since the Great East Japan Earthquake, AKB48 Group has continuously supported various places, including Yamada City.
Today, there are children who wrote letters of gratitude for their continuous support.
Would you like to hear it?
Yes, of course!
To all of you in 48 Group!
I met you in Yamada for the second time on March 11, 2013.
After that, I always go to see you when you come to Yamada.
Not only do you make Yamada people happy with songs and dances,
you make jorams with us, sing with us, eat delicious food with us,
and always smile and be kind to anyone you meet.
I love you all!
Even if you come to Yamada in private,
I know that you are kind and only leave messages with AKB.
You are a good dancer, Ami-chan!
I started dancing because I admired all of you, AKB!
On the anniversary of your death, I was walking behind you.
You remembered me and said you wanted to see me when you came to Yamada in private.
We ate oysters and vegetables together on the road, and we danced Batsumeng together.
It was a lot of fun and I was happy.
There are a lot of people in Yamada who have had a hard time.
You have been visiting Yamada since the disaster.
Thanks to you, we have been able to meet and transform a lot.
I don't know how many times I've said thank you, but thank you for always supporting Yamada.
I want to make a lot of fun memories together in the future.
I hope you will continue to support us who live in Yamada and Yamada.
Thank you.
Marika-chan read my letter.
I got my energy back by watching "Hisaichi Live" which I happened to watch.
Now I'm learning how to dance.
Marika-chan will be a middle school student this spring.
Wow, it's Yuri-chan!
Yuri-chan of Yamada-machi.
It's nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, too.
Here you are.
Yuri-chan.
Thank you.
Thank you for coming.
Thank you.
Take care.
Don't forget about Yamada-machi from now on.
Bye-bye!
(Who are you?)
Ten years have passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake, which caused the Great Mizou Earthquake, and the Northeast is slowly recovering.
However, there is still a long way to go to fully recover.
During these ten years, the AKB48 held 76 disaster site visits.
The members who participated were 126 people, and the total number of visitors was 712 people.
Due to COVID-19, AKB48 could not visit the Northeast in 2020 and 2021.
However, AKB48 will continue to support disaster sites.
To open the door of the future.
Thank you for watching the video.
Ms. Yukirin, who participated in the first support activity and was in charge of the narration this time, how was it watching the video again?
I've been to a lot of places and met a lot of people.
What I remember the most is when I went there for the first time.
It's only been two months since the earthquake and I don't know what I can do as an AKB member.
I don't know what I should do as a person and as a human being.
I remember going there with a lot of anxiety, wondering if it was the right thing to do.
But as you can see in the video, everyone came to us with a warm and rather hot enthusiasm.
I was really encouraged.
We will do our best, so please do your best, AKB.
Be sure to come back again.
It's very impressive that everyone said that.
When I went there for the first time, I'm glad I was able to do this activity.
I'm glad I was able to do this activity.
I still remember it.
Thank you very much.
I'm really grateful and full of feelings of gratitude that this project is continuing now thanks to everyone in the Northeast who encouraged me and welcomed me warmly.
Currently, we are connected remotely with members of 48 groups.
First of all, members of AKB48, please come out!
Yes, a lot of people have come.
From AKB48, 28 people from each theater, and 27 people remotely, a total of 55 members have participated.
Then, on behalf of Fukuoka, I would like to hear from Seina-chan.
Seina-chan!
Hi, I'm Fukuoka Seina.
Seina-chan, you also participated in the remote meeting of Sanriku Railway as a cheerleader for Sanriku Railway in Iwate Prefecture the other day.
You sent a video message and a poster, didn't you?
Yes, the video message and poster were shown at the end of the previous video.
This time, I did it with Mayuri Murayama-san, Satone Kubo-chan, Eri Chiba-chan and me.
Originally, I wanted to go see you, but it's difficult now, so I sent you a video message thinking that I would like to go see you and that the Sanriku Railway and the AKB48 group have a lot of memories, so I hope those memories will reach you.
When I can go see you again, I would like to ride on Sanriku Railway, and it seems that there is a story that it would be nice if we could do an in- car announcement or a stamp rally, so I hope we can liven up together.
That's right. I hope we can do a lot of things together in the future as well. Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
Now, let's move on to Maho Omori-chan.
Yes, I'm Maho Omori.
Yes, in October 2019, Maho-pyon went to Marumori Town in Miyagi Prefecture to support the disaster relief activities. How was it?
Yes, it was my first time going to Marumori Town, and I was watching it on the news on TV, but when I went there for the first time and saw it with my own eyes, I was still in the water and mud had entered the house.
There were a lot of things I felt when I saw it with my own eyes, and I often participated in the call-outs, but in that short time, everyone in Marumori Town was happy to eat warm rice, and we got a lot of energy and said a lot of warm words.
I was told, "Thank you for giving me energy," but I was able to say warm words that I was able to get energy from it.
There were people who shed tears and said words of gratitude.
I'm glad that we were able to do one important activity while we were moving forward.
Thank you, Maho-pyon.
Thank you, AKB48 members.
Please turn off the monitor.
Next, I'd like to talk to you, SKE48 members.
Please.
SKE48 has a total of 27 members participating.
On behalf of SKE48, I'd like to hear from you, Makiko Saito and Akari Suda.
First of all, SKE48's captain, Makiko Saito.
It's been 10 years since the earthquake, how have you been?
Ten years ago, I went to the office lesson hall and felt a huge tremor even in Nagoya with a few members.
I think it was a very big earthquake.
"For Someone" project has started.
I've never been to the disaster area, but I've had a few people from SKE participate.
Even in the video?
I was able to know the current situation of the disaster area, and I also saw the video that was playing now, but I think the AKB48 group has visited a lot of disaster areas over the past ten years, and I don't think it's possible now because of COVID-19, but when we can go again, we will continue this activity that you have made history so far, and we decided strongly that we should continue it.
Also, when various things happen, I would like to do my best in the future so that I can be of help to you as an SKE48 member.
Thank you very much.
Next, Akari Suda, how about you?
Yes, I'm Akari Suda. I also went to the site for this reconstruction activity, but when I first went there, I was very anxious about whether I would say something and be happy about it, and I didn't have the image of what I was doing being of help to someone, so at first I was very anxious, but doing something and thinking of someone is the most important thing for me.
I think that it is important and it is a trigger for the heart to work through this activity, and I am very grateful to all of you at the site for welcoming me warmly, and even now, I am very supportive of the moments in everyday life that I think about what you are doing at that time and how you are spending it with a smile.
I am also looking forward to the day we will meet again.
Thank you very much.
Next, Ms. Obamina, how about you?
Yes, I am Obamina.
I also went to the disaster area, and I got a lot of words from the locals, but among them, I was very impressed that they said "thank you for not forgetting".
For us, we will never forget, but when we feel that the people who have been affected say such words to us, we feel anxious about such things or think about such things.
When I felt that, no matter how old I am in the future, I thought that I should never forget, and I thought very strongly that what we can do in the future may not be much, but I hope we can do it with all our might.
Thank you very much.
It was a wonderful story.
Thank you to everyone at sk48.
Please turn off the monitor.
Next, I would like to hear from the members of nnb48 as well.
Please.
NAME BEFORE TATE has a total of 32 members participating.
On behalf of NAME BEFORE TATE, I would like to ask MIRU and AYAKA YAMAMOTO about their thoughts.
First of all, MIRRUN, how do you like it?
Yes, I'm visiting the site, and there are a lot of children and parents and people of all ages coming to see me during the live performance.
The venue is full of smiles and warmth, and when I remember that scenery, we are the ones who deliver smiles, but on the contrary, we are the ones who push our backs and make us stand up, and I think we got a really nice and precious opportunity.
Thank you very much. MIRRUN, you're about to graduate, so you hope you can go again, right?
Next up is AYAKA YAMAMOTO. How do you like it, AYAN?
Yes, I'm AYAKA YAMAMOTO of NAME BEFORE TATE. I've actually been to the site several times, and I was very grateful for the warm words you gave me and for the warm welcome you gave me when I went to the site,
and among them, when I saw you all smile, I really felt that our activities are for you and that you are encouraged by us, so I would like to continue this project and this project in the future, and I would like to convey to those who have actually experienced it and to us who will receive a lot of lessons in the future that we would like to convey to you in the future, and I would like to convey to you in the future, and I would like to convey to you in the future, and I would like to convey to you in the future, and I would like to convey to you in the future, and I would like to convey to you in the future, and I would like to convey to you in the future, and I would like to convey to you in the future, and I would like to convey to you in the future, and I would like to convey to you in the future, and

. I think I'm about 5 years old now
because my mother heard my name and thought it sounded good and gave me the same name
. I hope Yuiri-chan will grow up big.
Then, how about Ami Yumoto-chan?
Yes, as you saw in the video earlier,
by the way, I met an old man who lost all his family and did not know the hope of living, but
now the hope of living is Ami-chan. I think I met that old man through this project, so I was
very happy and I felt like I could do something, so I was very happy.
There was also a scene of letters from children, wasn't there?
Even in Ami's private life, she visited and left a message without saying her name.
Yes, when I went with my family, I couldn't do anything, so I bought a lot of souvenirs and took them home, but I was very happy
when my mother said that she was very happy.
I think it's very nice.
Then, finally, Mr. Oya, how about you?
Yes, it's been three months since the earthquake and I've been to the site for the first time, but
after all, rather than watching it on TV or taking pictures, I can really know a lot of things in real life and if I didn't do this kind of activity,
if I hadn't joined a group called akb, I wouldn't have been able to actually step foot in it, so I'm really happy to be involved in this activity, and
after all, at first, as you said, is it okay to say it? It's really big, but it's really your smiles that made me lose that feeling, and
that scenery wasn't like an earthquake or something like that at first, but really everyone's smiles were brighter and more visible than the glitter of the audience I've seen at concerts so far, and I'm really glad I was able to do this activity.
Yes, thank you.
Mr. Oya said that all the members really think the same thing.
Now, it will soon be time for the wooden lantern.
All members of the 48 group participating in this time, please turn on the monitor and stand in line in the theater.
And everyone watching YouTube, thank you for joining us.
About 30 seconds left.
A lot of people are watching YouTube.
Yes, more than 10,000 people are watching.
Thank you very much.
Oh, there are 188 members participating in this time.
Now, I would like to express my condolences to those who lost their lives in the Great East Japan Earthquake.
And I would like to offer you a wooden sword to pray for your well-being from the bottom of my heart.
A wooden sword.
Please stand up. Thank you, everyone.
Now, members, would you like to take your seats?
Thank you very much.
Now, except for HKT48 members, please turn off your monitors.
Thank you very much.
Now, we will continue to talk about support activities and future activities.
HKT48 consists of 22 members.
On behalf of HKT48 members, we would like to hear from Miku Tanaka and Hana Matsuoka.
First of all, Mikulin, how do you feel?
Yes, I actually participated in the disaster area visit, but even now, everyone's smiles remain in my heart.
I would like to continue doing what we can do now.
Thank you very much.
Now, Hana-chan, how do you feel?
Yes, I'm Hana Matsuoka.
I participated in the disaster area visit again,
but there were so many people who came to see the live show and saw me smiling so happily.
It really left an impression on me.
I hope I can continue to pass on this message to the next generation without forgetting it.
I would like to continue supporting activities in the future.
Thank you very much.
Thank you, everyone of HKT48.
Please turn off your monitors.
Next, we would like to talk with the members of NGT48.
Please come in!
Yes, from NGT48, a total of 20 members have participated.
Then, I would like to talk to Hinata Honma on behalf of NGT48.
Hinatan, how about you?
Yes, I am Hinata Honma of NGT48.
I experienced a big shake when I was in fifth grade of elementary school at the time of the earthquake.
After that, I moved to an elementary school.
There are children who move from a disaster site to an elementary school.
In my life in Niigata Prefecture, I have realized more closely the magnitude of the disaster damage.
And after joining NGT48,
through my activities as a member of NGT48 Group as a whole,
even though it's far away, I support them a lot and get a lot of power in return.
I myself feel very warm about this activity.
So I'd like to continue my activities so that I can deliver a lot of power to the affected areas in the future, and I hope it will continue in the future as well.
There are many members of the sister group who are far away from each other, but by joining this group, I think you will be able to wish for support or reconstruction more closely, and I think that feeling has reached you as well.
Thank you very much to everyone at NGT48!
Thank you very much!
Please turn off the monitor.
Finally, I would like to talk with the members of STU48 as well!
Please go ahead!
From STU48, a total of 31 members are participating.
On behalf of STU48, I would like to talk to Mitsuki Imamura, the captain of STU48.
How about you, Michu?
Yes, I'm Mitsuki Imamura of STU48.
I haven't been able to visit the affected area in person,
but I've been able to visit Yumiko Taki of STU48 and Nana Okada of STU48.
As a group, we have cooperated in the form of a performance for someone's project.
Even in Setouchi area where we, STU48, are based,
in 2018, there was a West Japan Earthquake.
At that time, we thought about what we could do and did some self-sustenance activities.
Your warm words and smiles when we did the concert tour were very impressive.
Not only in the area where we are based,
but we would like to continue our activities while thinking about what we can do for ourselves as a group
so that we can give energy and smiles to many people all over the country.
Thank you very much.
I don't know where and what will happen all over Japan,
but I hope we can continue to support each other for someone's sake.
Thank you, everyone of STU48!
Finally, I would like to sing a song of support for the recovery and recovery of today's members.
Everyone, please turn on your monitors!
Let's sing together with the members in the theater.
Yes, everyone seems to be ready, so please listen to what my palms say.
I only know what I can grab with my hands.
Even if I spread my fingers wide, something spills out.
Even so, no matter how many times I reach out these palms of mine,
I'll gently pick up the sand of the future right in front of me.
A dream is always something you start when you're alone.
Don't forget about the past.
Just do what you want to do now.
Even if it's just a small palm of mine,
if you work hard and keep saving it, you'll one day build a mountain.
Let's try to hold on to that sand tighter than words.
Don't think about the size of this palm.
Humans are smaller than that sky, but we can be reborn.
You are always there to help each other.
Pick up the spilled sand and wrap it up little by little.
Even if you answer with a faint hand alone,
That palm of yours will always be there for you.
You can do it!
Thank you very much!
Due to the influence of the new coronavirus, we are not able to continue our activities to our satisfaction,
but we, AKB48 GROUP, will continue to do our best while looking for what we can do for someone.
On March 11, 2011, we will continue our disaster area support activities without letting what happened 10 years ago come to fruition.
Thank you very much for watching our stream today!
Thank you very much!
